Hi,

I want to ask what is the best tyre for 14 inch rims? because my silverstone  M3 is suck and make the alignment lari even thought after go to manual alignment one. Have claim the warranty from silverstone but the new tyre also not up to par.

Last time I have heard about falken 912 which they say have a good grip during raining.

All I want is a good tyre grip during dry and wet and not to soft because of KL road "you know the conditions"

Any suggestion guys?
*
no best tyre
more expensive are usually better...just depends how much are u willing to spend on tyre

well, im sorry if my queries seems stupid, but this is my 1st time in this thread, so im not really sure how u guys work.. looks like bombarding people is the way 2 go here.. ok, point noted.. n as the issues wit my stars, i earned em by being polite n nice as i possibly can, discussin sumthin as a FORUM shud, not juz firing people n then being as sarcastic as hell juz becoz u hate the opposition carmaker.. let me tell u sumthin, i love cars.. i dont really care the make or model, thats y i hangout in FnF, 2 be around other car lovers. i dont discriminate anybody, not by wat type of brand of car they drive, whether i like or not.. yes, i drive a myvi eric, but u dont see me go around giving terrible comments bout saga.. 2 me, 2 each his own.. u choose 2 buy a particular make or model 4 ur very own reasons, nobody has the rite 2 discriminate that rite of urs.. n even if i happen 2 give other forummers a piece of my mind, i surely would apologize n give probable juztifications 4 my action. being a saga newby, i thought we could juz blend in n discuss stuff bout this budget sedan which i think is a very gud buy btw.. im juz asking coz a dear bud of mine is gettin one, never expect people around here 2 be so rude n inconsiderate.. 2 be truthfully honest, i was really shocked 2 read these comments, as i was asking my questions in a very polite n nice manner.. so sad, people these days r so, how shud i put this in a nicer way, 'un-nice'..

nvr thought my very innocent asking would be treated this way.. i thought by asking real owners of the cvt would fruit better understanding 2wards the gb of the car.. well, have 2 be skeptical, as its the 1st time proton's offering cvt in their car.. ok then guys, understood.. thnx very much 4 all the help, especially the TS..
*
the CVT's FC should be alot better than the 4AT
cuz it cruise at lower RPM
and the CVT is from punch
wanna get...get the 1.6L FLX SE thn

Hi guys, i'm deciding to get my first car with the price around 50-60k. Will do long distance travel nilai-penang once a month. Prefer a car with good handling so no myi for me although i like the interior design more than proton. I've narrowed down to only these two, saga flx se 1.6 or persona elegance h-line. Which one is a better choice? Or should i wait for persona replacement?? icon_question.gif
*
either persona or FLX SE...u'd have to test drive only u'll know
cuz can't really compare or choose between it...just buy which one suits u

about the persona replacement(which its not, its a new model), it is well better than both of these car,well equipped and meet international standard(its more like a forte 2.0 interms of feature)
but this car is more like "do u have the budget"...if u have the budget and have the time thn u can wait for it

Some hardcore ICE junkies doesn't log into this forum. The older BLM is easy due to the space in the boot and also the fact that the dashboard can accommodate either a single DIN or a 2-DIN unit without making much customization.

The newer FL/FLX with steering controls however is a bit hard. This was due to the fact that the steering audio control somehow only works only with the stock unit. lol But other things such as wiring, speaker set up, woofer positioning, etc are relatively easy to be done because space isn't much of a concern.
*
this is when more things inside your car doesn't mean its better
but i like the USB feature newer gen has

hows the sound quality of the standard setup?? coz in any perodua i go into, they have this terrible stereo, which 2 me, isnt tolerable at all..
*
in saga, they give u a pretty good stereo
so, despite they cut away the soundproof...u can still hear it loud and clear

just to give u some good and bad abt each car
saga
good stereo
no soundproof
better tech(CVT, ABS and EBD)
cheap

persona
multilink
got soundproof = good nvh
still stick with 4AT
rear disc brake(high line)
more expensive

i see.. but i think its down 2 the engine as well.. coz as we all know, the cps engine isnt known 2 be the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes 2 being quiet.. its quite a vocal engine, n not a very nice sound at that..

but watever it is, have 2 give kudos 2 proton 4 making an effort 2 produce an engine.. n now wit the cfe, theyre even keeping up wit the trend of downsizing wit forced induction..
*
CFE is more to campro
CPS is another different kind already
CPS as ppl say fun to drive
CFE is more to torque and power...CPS also power but CFE more torque mean pickup much faster...haha
sound...i think is same but CFE car is much quiet cuz mate with CVT GB which cruise at a way lower RPM
thus sound not so loud..FC also improve

Met an accident during the second day of new year. Was along the Jln Kuching linking to kepong then suddenly from nowhere this Blue Myvi with the number plate WVA 6749 bang the back of my car REALLY REALLY hard. and you know whats worst? He ran, he tried to outrun me but i was trailing his back, horned and flashed him to stop but he refused to  then suddenly he made a tight turn up to the flyover linking to the segambut roundabout. Made a police report on the night itself but I can see that the police doesnt give a F**k. Tried pissing me off instead.

Pictures will be posted soon but all i can say is my back totally gone. Bumper have a huge hole and my boot just got pushed inside a little. To make matters worst, i just installed a body kit.

Question now for all the readers out there, any way I can indentify the car owner of the Myvi? Its a hit and run case but the police doesnt seem to wanna help. This is what our country has become. Safe? Safe my ass.

u have the car's number...u have a hit and run report...u can pretty much claim his insurance already
ask your insurance agent

interesting u brought this up.. very gud subject..

i dont understand y the govt wanna do auto only license, the driving curiculum needs 2 be re-evaluated, yes that i agree very much.. but the auto license?? WTF!! :slap:
*
ya...auto license is like equivalent to auto pass already..haha
hill stop is like auto pass as well
parking..the tutor will teach u the way to cheat ...mean auto pass as well
driving part...drives under 40KM/H...anyone could have pass...some i see drives like 20KM/H which u won't even drive like that in reality when u get your license
and the tutor seriously need to be re-evaluate...reason, they teach u to cheat and pass....and they never tell u those rules that apply in real road
like if you're driving slow, dn't hog the right side....many i see hog the right lane in 40KM/H..ON A STRAIGHT ROAD
they seldom use signal
and 1 more very serious thing...the tutor won't teach the student when its raining which makes the student dn't know what to do when its raining on the JPJ test
the tutor actually didn't teach alot of things to the student...my younger bro is 1 of the example....test all pass...but when i sit beside him when he drive...i dn't even think hes even close to qualify(TO ME)....alot of thing also he doesn't know...need me to teach him

Have installed the abl, no problems it is functioning as it should. Worth to mention is that sh@rtys abl also come with door open hazard signal (hazard ligts come one when the door is opened). Sh@rtys dad installed for me, he was not at the shop.

Anyway, after a long drive today to klang and back...

1. Torque dip?what torque dip?  tongue.gif  tongue.gif the engine runs smoothly as a cvt should, but quite loud la with some aeroplane sound. This time around i can feel the pull as i open up the throttle. The fastest i manage was 130-140 before running into traffic. Maybe performance may improve after first service. But all in all, campro iafm+ rocks icon_rolleyes.gif

2.the stock tinting is pretty much crap. Though i have no plans to upgrade it anytime soon.

3. Handling is good, minimal bodyroll and feels planted to the road. Ride comfort is...hmmm...maybe its the larger rims or the seat, the suspension feels stiff. I guess its a trade off between stability and comfort.

4.there is a minor vibration on my steering, but not that noticable. Hopefully it wont get worse.

5.sound system is decent enough for the average joe like me. I'm listening to mp3s from my pen drive most of the time.
Fc...not so soon lah! icon_rolleyes.gif
*
1. thats the IAFM sound

2. u shouldn't be upgrading it...u should be changing it with one that has better workmanship..if not bubble will appear becuz of bad workmanship like proton OEM ones
and the tint is only very basic ones...outside sold those has better UVR and IRR
