welcome to cucuk

2012 manufactured unit shud be available on Feb onwards
but i think not many unit so have to start booking now

regarding the color and CVT option for next year no idea too
currently only white with manual

black interior??

SA call me just now
showroom unit will in this late evening
and available for view tmr!

JB Kulai WangLoo Motor

rear view is ok
rear side view (reverse out from parking) is almost 80% blocked

but since u drive the car 99% forward
dun think is a big issue

no

but opening ceremony (so called in those aftermarket gauge) is already cool enough

petrol engine power the car to move all the time
IMA ONLY assist petrol engine during accelerate
(idle, cruising at same speed, IMA will not assist)
IMA charging during decelerate using engine drag force (help to slow down as well)

i'm doing exactly the same here
day time look at other car reflection
nite time look for any headlight coming
then reverse slowly and wait for anyone honk u to stop..


i paid rm1k deposit back in november

So far my average fc 17km/l with ron95 after 5k km millege, 50/50 highway and town drive, normal mode all the while

In sport mode easily go to 160km/h

yes, only the aircon compressor off as it is drive by the engine, but the blower is still ON
unless there is hot sun and u dun hv tinted film and u stop for more than 3mins
else it should not be a problem
actually stopping the car with engine on waste a lot of petrol, that is y they have this feature

anyway, u can ON back the engine and aircon anytime by pressing the clutch pedal,
or if u already are pressing the clutch pedal and the engine gone off,
just engage into any gear then the engine will turn on back.

i sports mode all the way from KL to JB around 150km/h +-,
then sports mode also in JB city drive,
finish whole tank get 16.8km/l

yup yokohama advan A10

how long have u drive ur CR-Z?
it shud hv much better FC after around 1000km millege
now normal mode JB town drive i getting 19-21km/L
RM65 Ron95 get 620-700km

from spec wise CR-Z can easily outrun any new 1.6 NA in the market now, and even some 1.8/2.0

flat out from standstill, it shud flat before u reach 6th gear...

RE050? mayb new batch will come in this
my 1st batch was advan A10
same with lancer GT

Yup I took the car on xmas eve
Then very carefully run in for 1st 5000km
Nvr rev above 4k rpm

After 2nd service, throw in K&N filter, its more power and better fc as well

No, K&N actually issue a notice to all Car Manufacturer in US that their products will not void any car warranty.
In US they even bring this case to the court against those Manufacturer who void the customer car warranty.

But here in Malaysia, your service center is the one who say void or not void, court here will not bother.
So normally best practice is to consult with your service center,
or much easier like other bros here said,
change back to original when you want to claim any warranty.

after 1000km u will feel much smoother ride

i still keeping my B16A (M)..wanna go hardcore use the B, wan take girl go pak toh use the Z


yeah, nowadays new car new engine already run-in out from the factory.
but i think additional run-in in actual driving condition especially in hot humid weather in Malaysia will be necessary,
other parts like tire should also do the proper run-in to ensure it will perform its best with longest lifespan!

i watched the CR-Z development video in youtube interview some of the CR-Z designer and engineer
the main concept of this CR-Z hybrid is to change the way the driver drive to achieve green performance
that is y u see a lot of driver assist function like 3 drive mode, color change speed meter, real time fuel consumption meter, auto reset average fuel consumption each tank, ECO rating (grow the trees in the car).

afterall its still a petrol car with a tiny electric motor assist
it will not save u a lot of fuel if u duno how to
after i "run-in" myself with the CR-Z.....
JB city drive with normal mode, i get 698km/tank (19.8km/L) with the little help of K&N drop in air filter

i met a safey officer recently visit my company for training
he drive his Prius all the way from Ipoh to JB and he get 18km/L
not saying that Prius is bad, but is the way the driver drive will make big difference


so far i'm very very satisfied with this car as pure raw power is not what i looking for, i still keep my B16A to play sometime
since taking the car last xmas eve, i will rate it 9 out of 10

0.5 for the speaker (rear speakers are totally useless, i set to fully front)
0.5 for the torsion-beam at the back, not good for any hardcore project, but serve well for daily use pak toh gai gai car...

320i Sedan 115kW 200Nm 1400kg = 8.21kW/14.29Nm/100kg
CR-Z 91kW 1160kg = 7.84kW/15Nm/100kg

you can challenge 320i anytime

Finally PIMP my ride after staying stock since last X'mas...

hey bro, long time no hear from u
no la its add-on, civic still keep for vtec fun ma..
