QUOTE(desho! @ Jul 16 2006, 04:30 PM) i heard dunlop or silverstone tyres are the best for Wiras and... my wira's engine oil..quite used up quickly. maybe need to use semi like what you guys said. but my rpm always around 2.5 to 3 only. rarely speed. If u asked of me, Silverstone is not up to my satisfactory level. Good Year is far better. If budget is not a concern, Michelin XM1 is a better deal.

If travel daily with milage more than 100km, Dunlop is the best choice if want to waste money, it can only last for 9 months. If don't care much on noisy sound and want last long, Silverstone is the best choice. Even the Rainmaster cannot 'cut' water like Goodyear. If want overall performance, Goodyear and Michelin is the best choice. For 14", price tagged at rm175 on my last change(March 2006). Now don't know the price already.

Hey guys, check this out. Projector headlamps with CCFL Angle Eyes. Glass, not plastic. Approx~RM1600
Projector side signal lamp. Approx~RM140
Heard that a lot of people already got these especially around Sabah Sarawak? But I've never seen them before...  Really cool...

How good are the light dispersion from those 3rd party headlights? I saw a few in penang (not this model) fixing crystal and projector headlamps and i find that thier light dispersion is not as good as the original. Looks nice...but..
BTW, my car is gonna be up on genting in another few weeks, Any recommended checks/repairs to be done (other than brakes)? Im travelling from Penang down to Gentings.
And also, Anyone with experience other there? like where to park my car? and what extra precaution to take to safeguard my car? The Hotel got car park wan rite?

Not necessary.....unless you step on the accelerator a lot If drive normally, it should be okay Plus you get the power from the 1.8 4g93P engine
