you try Good Year NCT5 then you'll know what is grip not good tongue.gif
*
I tried that before when I bought my myvi few years ago, that NCT 5 is not juz no grip, it's hard, damn noisy and sucks big time!!! I change the tyres even b4 they get botak for god sake...
I re-experience my vios and now I think it's not the tyre's fault, it's that the electronic power steering in vios is too sensitive to my liking and any slight movement to the steering reflect quite significant movement to the car... I guess I juz have to get used to it.

hahahah, exactly my feeling bro biggrin.gif laugh.gif

yeah... too light... i added front lower arm and upper strut bars so it kinda fixed that, steering feels a bit heavier and tighter rclxms.gif
*
The steering too light and cause the effect of body roll to b quite significant also when doing sharp turning, I plan to install anti-roll bar also...
I try my car on highway, even hit until 130km/h, the car still feel planted and stable (must go in straight line la of course...). Enuff for me as I don't like to explore top speed. Power wise is really good, cincai step on pedal, the car exceed 120km/h without me even knowing! thumbup.gif My myvi I step until leg pain, feels like dragging only around 120km/h. Wind noise is acceptable to me... as my baby still can sleep soundly back there. tongue.gif Not sure if it's bcoz G spec got better sound insulation, a lot ppl say vios noisy at high speed... but I'm very satisfied with the NVH of the car. nod.gif Get this car below 80K can have this kinda space, power, fuel econ and NVH, I think it's kinda good buy! cool2.gif

Any1 has installed bodykit in Eneos car center ?

Any comment about that ?

They are offering RM1.2k for ABS bodykit (TRD)...
Is it a good deal ?

Any1 know where can i find original/ABS bodykit (TRD) in KL/Selangor area ?
*
Really? Including painting and installation? Is it full set TRD Sportivo BK? Can choose selectively each part?

If RM1200 include paint + installation sounds like good deal for ABS material.

so in conclusion, addition 800 ringgit on this colour worth it
*
To me, I think is worth, since the car alrdy got huge discount. Moreover, this color is only introduced May this year, and this version vios is gonna discontinue soon... So, getting the pearl white will add exclusivity to the car. biggrin.gif
At 1st I wanna get the G spec and my wife say get E to save some moni... later she found out that only G and above can get Pearl White, she approve me getting G... so, happy ending, haha! rclxm9.gif

do you plan to put bodykit on ur pearl white vios
*
Tentatively, if I encounter some good deal... coz I dun like the current TRD full set. Actually I like the bodykit on the pre-facelit vios, the S spec type... Anyone know the code name? And for rear spoiler I dun plan to put those with brake light, coz have to drill hole on the bonnet. I think a small stick on type will do.
Anyway, I'm not in a rush to apply the bodykit, my current white shining baby is already a beauty in my eyes. ahem~ sweat.gif I need to find some real good deal only pull the trigger, else my wife sure mumble me say I waste moni... mad.gif

never consider G limited?

G Limited is abt 2K+ more expensive than G juz for the BK...all others area same as G, a big NO NO to me!
Moreover, I prefer TRD BK over the G Limited BK, install aftermarket most expensive I ask b4 is only RM1600, so I better get the G and save some moni for a nicer BK that i prefer...

So E and J also get potenza?

For all latest enhanced version vios intorduced from May 2013, all rim and tyre from J to G is the same, 15" bridgestone tyre. For G spec the rim color is different with smoked dark color while J to E is bright silver. And the audio player is new type with usb and bluetooth, design also looks way better than previous type. thumbup.gif

I tried the audio player, although manual said oni support iphone, but I still can pair my cheapo android phone with bluetooth and play the song from my phone! Very convenient and nice feature! laugh.gif
