QUOTE(IamRacist @ Jul 31 2012, 09:59 PM) Is it normal for proton wira 1.6 to drink fuel like monster? Even though I only maintain 2-2.5k rpm. I have a lot of torque around that range but isn't that going to help acceleration with ease while saving a lot of fuel at the same time? It feels very good for city drive rather than highway but it still consumes fuel just as much as travelling on high ways:( I always thought traveling on highway consume lesser fuel than city drive?...how many km u get per liter of fuel? |

QUOTE(IamRacist @ Jul 31 2012, 10:39 PM) Rm65 can get at most is 300km. Both high way and city drive consumes just as bad. Even though the engine maintain 2000rpm, no difference also. I'm using esso ron95, shell sluggish but mileage slighty more only. U should sent to workshop to check already... |

QUOTE(k3v_84 @ Aug 14 2012, 11:20 PM) Yup, did not increase at all... Kinda regret spending RM 50 for it... No different and very troublesome... Everytime jack up the car, need to slowly adjust it back... Thinking of uninstalling it, but very waste coz use less than 2 weeks... 
Added on August 14, 2012, 11:23 pmYup, the picture no.1 is stock extractor coz the cover is still on... If the extractor has been change then usually the cover can't fit in...(example is like picture no.2) Seems like i need to opt for new spring instead of coil spring buffer...>.< Guys, if i use Heavy Duty Rear spring for my wira 1.3 A/B, will the height increase or the height will be the same but its stiffer? |

Anyone got experience using Coil Spring Buffer?...
From what i read online, some said the buffer will damage the spring, some said the buffer will damage the absorber, which make me confuse...
My intention to use the buffer is to increase my car height by around 1cm or more and make the suspension a little stiffer...

Guys, since i service my TB and change plug cable to Bosch Super Sport few month ago, i notice my spark plug started to give problem after around 4 or 5k km of driving and need to be replace...
1) Is it because the standard NGK spark plug is not compatible with the Bosch Super Sport plug cable?...
2) Anyone used APM standard spring to replace the original spring?...How durable is this spring?...will it get soft or sag very fast?...as i've hear this APM standard spring will get soft after a year...i wonder how true is that...I've already change the absorber (both front & rear), now i want to change the spring...not sure to go for APM standard spring or Heavy Duty spring for both front & rear...
