Sold to another owner but am still driving an old perodua lols.....
Btw, a clean and nice looking ride you have there, bro

Anyhow, I have some questions regarding with my current ride; not-related to kenari for sure.
Firstly, the rpm fluctuates slightly up & down while accelerating and thus causing underpower feeling, any idea what causes that to happen ?
Secondly, the whole car vibrates badly while accelerating from standstill up to 45 km/h....longshaft worn-out, eh ?

Hopefully, some sifus can sort out my prob as there's no specific thread for my ride....how sad

my humble car, hehe



now already convert to, l900 casual
black one

now i realize you're not in the member list, mind to state down your Kenari year of manufacture? so that i can put in front.

i got mine at rm400 on Nov last year at this forum's Automotive Garage. quite lucky to get this set of rim at rm400 last year. now, almost everywhere at this price good thing is i get to trade in my original rim at rm150 which makes my myvi rim rm250.

pros about this rim, tough, Enkei ma... this is my reason for getting this rim as the original one always bengkok, i have sent the ori rim for repair almost every 1~2 oil service.
cons, heavy, not good fc...

old perodua and no specific thread? haha that's the only best angle of looking of my car, thanks anyway!

rpm fluctuates sounds like dirty throttle body, just wild guessing. check air filter as well.
car vibrates badly from 0~45km/h sounds like what you mention, drive shaft. meanwhile, check wheel bearing condition and tire + rim condition.

Its a kembara btw....one of the most unwanted and crap ride in Malaysia

Btw, the throttle body has been cleaned nicely. Air filter has been cleaned & oiled last week. Also, I've flushed & change my EO too. In the same time, I poured in a bottle of fuel injector cleaner and things improved slightly only. Could it be anything to do with the torque converter / the radiator fan ? IIRC, the radiator fan is pretty old & has been running for the past 12 years, so I might be thinking that it would rob some extra power to make it spin. As for the autobox, I've recently done an ATF change 5000 kms ago but i'm planning to do a complete machine ATF flushing + filter change on my upcoming service.

Oh yeah, I've done the 4WD to RWD conversion, thus my ride is running with the longshaft only and the frontal driveshaft has been removed. Actually, there was once I had a prob with my longshaft whereby there's squeaking noise while reversing my vehicle. Thus, my mech told me to fix up the longshaft and managed to clear off the squeaking noise. However, the vibration now has started to take place and is annoying to me . The tyres & rims are good in condition but I'll check out the wheel bearing.

Sorry if I'm running out of topic since I'm discussing non-kenari topics over here

Jackal400, r u still running the same ori engine?
Can u explain how to convert to rwd only? How's fuel consumption now?

nice rice u have there~~
alot of hardcore modder from borneo ~~

Yes, the old non-dvvt engine; code HC-EJ.
Actually, the mech took out the whole front drive shaft system and tightened the front hole of the 4wd system with a metal cap.

I would say there's an improvement of around 5 -10%; depending on your driving behavior & engine condition. Well, my current ride manage to undergo in between 10-11 km / litre as compared to previously; which did 8-9 km / ltire. 100% city driving with almost identical driving habit. And of course the engine condition back then was far worse than the current state. Still, my current ride isn't at its tip-top condition, thus I presume the FC still can be improved.

Its an automatic tranmission btw. Looking forward to achieve 13km/litre for pure city driving and 16km/litre for pure highway driving....lols

thanks bro, we like to make jdm as posible, hehe

do i need to change the vavle and cooling coil when changing the compressor?

depends on whether or not it needs changing....

thanks..

will be getting one soon to have it replaced

my car is same colour with u .. puchong area , car manufacture year at 2006 .

so the myvi rims better handling than the original one ?
but it effect alot of fc ?

i'm from Puchong also

handling mainly comes from tire, you can hardly feel from rim.
fc went bad by a bit, last time can reach 180km easily with current rm30 @rm1.9/L. now a bit hard to achieve.

forget the myvi rims la.. heavy as shit and so skinny... better to get taiwan wheels.. at least ull get a 6" width from it.... prolly stronger and lighter too


disagree....i recently changed kenari' stock rims (4.5") to proton stock rim (5" + new tires oso) and i could immediately feel the difference.....

even last time with my ex-kelisa oso i did the same thing (with the same tyre)and i could immediately feel the difference..the tire is stretched better helping to give a lil more contact patch as well as help reduce wall flex.



even my current EG6 oso has 6.5" alot of people saying not enough for playing in track.. should get 7" minimum.

i see something funny here, first you said Myvi rims is heavy as shit and so skinny, then you mentioned recently changed your Kenari stock rims to Proton stock rims with 5JJ, what so different from what i'm doing?

no offense la bro but from 4.5" to 5" can't make me hu-ha any thing about it.

i want Myvi rims is all because of m'sia road, or else any tw rims will get the job done, lighter, save some fc, so my intention just to save money and hassle to send my rims for dented repair almost every time i send my car for oil service. before i changed to Myvi rim i got offer either old Vios or MR2 MkI rims, 14X6JJ; a few tire shop already said with this two stock rims, tire will hit inside fender if full steering turn, which i always do. which left me Myvi rims in the list.

no offense ya man!

stock myvi 5jj is skinny...since he looking for rims.. ask him get 6" straight la...why bother with skinny rims?

i went proton rims is 13" ler.. dun wanna go 14" my stock oso 13"... somemore in my case... 4.5 to 5 is an upgrade man

14x6 hit fender? wat offset?? i used to use 15x6.5 +40 on kelisa no hit wor... a few kenari friends oso using 15x6.5 oso no hit

takkan 14x6 will hit?

aiya, takkan i recommend something that i don't want to use? of course it's up to him to choose la true also la 4.5" -> 5" is an upgrade, but can't make me excite for some time. i'm more excite when getting new 'rubber'

yes, a few tire shop i went for survey said it will hit inside fender, i guess the proper name for it is wheel arch? definitely it's not the fender or underneath where we see. or maybe it's not suitable for lowered as my birdie is very low last time. anyway, forget about it la, the wider the stock rims the heavier, as i need stock rims for dent prevention

haha... just curious to ask about myvi rims only.. i saw alot people changing this rim coz look nicer than original one ma... this original rims will lighter than the tw rims those meh?
