Oh, see this before.... its actually in the ZTH forum, but thanks for reposting

Actually based on Skyline's car, i think the way to go is 4-1 and LCP to compensate for the low end loss.

A typical 4-2-1 makes good gain from low-mid rev range to rev cut, without loosing the low range.

A typical 4-1 makes huge gain from mid rev range to cut, but loosing the low range slightly.


Situation A:
You are doing a sprint, you will only use zone A (1k rpm to 3k rpm) once or twice and from 3rd gear on wards you will be using zone B (3k rpm to 6k rpm). So you want a 4-1 because it gains more in that range. Whatever gain in zone A (from a 4-2-1) is near to useless to you, and the gain in zone B from a typical 4-2-1 is lower than that from a typical 4-1. So a 4-1 is better for sprint.

Situation B:
You drive the car in town with traffic and you shift at 4k rpm max. You will need a 4-2-1 because you will be using the low to mid range most. The lost in zone A from a typical 4-1 will make your car more lethargic to drive at low speed in high gear ratio.


Situation C:
You are cruising on highway in 5th gear at 110km/h or slightly higher, and occasionally speed up to 140km/h to overtake some slow cars. You will be using zone B most of the time. So a typical 4-1 will be more suitable for you.


Situation D:
TOP SPEED? From the graphs, it has to be a 4-1 but since aerodynamic property of the entire car is more important at that speed, you won't experience see much difference between the two. One may find the need to use 4th ratio instead of 5th when a 4-2-1 is used, and it's easier in 5th with a 4-1.


So, it's all about the power band! Nothing to do with 4-2-1 or 4-1. It's also about how you use the power band, nothing to do with 4-2-1 or 4-1. CLEAR?

well that would b best....but any 4-1 will still give u more gain in lowend than stock....so.it's still a gain for me.......even without LCP yet.....

Pipx la. He no needcannot to work Ot

working damn hard???? working damn hard still can reply lyn whatsapp so oftenly??

errr.. just got a 1.8 cvt.. but belong to my home minister..
if i borrow her car.. can i join this club ah ? 

For starters: 1st service i.e. 1000 km is labelled as a "minor service".  Things expected to be changed are
1) Motor oil (recommended to use fully synthetic) -- the Inspira manual states 4.3L so you will need to buy 5L of motor oil.  There should be some balance left because it is not advisable to overfill beyond the "F" mark on the oil dipstick; optimum is between the two holes on the dipstick.  It might be wise to observe the foreman doing the job or else just check that the motor oil is now "light golden" which is what fresh motor oil should look like.
2) Oil filter
3) Gasket
4) Drain plug

Expect free labour charges on your first service.  Total cost (excluding motor oil) should be approximately RM30-40.  Fully synthetic motor oil from Petronas e.g. Synthium 1000 costs approximately RM230 for 5L.  You may be offered additional service options such as magnetrap, fuel injector service or petrol treatment (X1R) but these are usually unnecessary during the first service.  Take the opportunity to activate the autolock function if you like or fix any problems with your car during this service.  When they return the car to you, check that the coolant and brake fluid have been topped up (new Inspiras usually have these fluids at the lower limit mark).  Also check that your service booklet has been updated for the first service.  You should receive an official receipt with your name, car registration no., chassis and engine numbers with details of the services done.  The next service is at 10000km or 6 months and this should be set into your display info by the service centre. 

Anything else to add or correct??  I am just speaking from my limited experience.

aiseh, becos today is friday ma.

Reason is normal drive we not much chance rev over 4k rpm. But when you need sudden power to push up speed, only gain 4-1 benefit.

Btw, 4- 1 I'm only afraid the extractor not done properly and end up the low range is worse compared to stock.
