2K Metallic, brand Evercoat or so they say. I'm using this car until I got enough to change to something awesome, which means for many years to come brows.gif.

Better buy a DIN55R battery and keep it in the boot along with a right sized wrench to remove the battery head screws just in case. You don't want to be caught with your pants down.

Thanks for the tip. Any particular brand to recommend? I'm really a car noob actually. So does my battery need replacing with a new one? I asked some of my frens and relatives, they said these maintenance-free batteries need more frequent replacing than the ones that need to be 'refilled'.
*
I only know Bosch, Century and Yokohama branded batteries hmm.gif. No recommendations in particular cause I never bought more than one before. I'm currently using the Bosch S3 DIN55R battery. Costed me RM210.

bro...i think from the (not accurate) coolant temp analog meter...i can estimate that d min&max temp is somewhere same as urs...
around 82C n sometimes will drop to around 78C (agak agak result from analog meter)

improvement...i will say cant feel any improvement (not a performance mod also) but it is good that it is proven that the custom thermostat opens at lower temp (as experimented during TT) after taking out the stock thermostat,i go back n put in a just-boiled-hot water...left it in like for 10mins+ pun tak open...normal ka? during TT i knw d water we use to experiment is like not even 90C and the custom thermostat opens within 5 mins... rclxms.gif

by comparing both thermostat with this experiment, theoretically, coolant will flow more fequently keeping the temp lower than wad the stock thermostat can do...

Still got stock ah? I want one but probably next month or something when I finally get some other things I wanted for quite awhile laugh.gif.

What is it? Turbocharge? biggrin.gif

Not in my sights yet since I don't have the know-how to maintain a Turbocharger, neither do I have the money to maintain a Turbocharged car. laugh.gif I'm seeking to get the voltage stabiliser first, then Ceratec or the thermostat.

I already Ceratec early early. Haha

160 for the damn bottle. And I treated my engine when it's brand new, I cannot feel any difference, even now. Says can last 50K but when I peek into the rocker cover, no sign of the orange brown ceramic.
*
Mine will probably have a significant difference since it wasn't really well maintained by the first owner judging from how bad the engine vibrates.

i see. your car vibrating strongly? did you check any problem with the engine?
or had your car met any accident before?
*
Got rear-ended before based on what I can tell from the slightly out of place boot and a cracked rear car plate and a cracked rear bumper. Side ended before for the rear left part probably since that part is slightly bend around the wheel arch area. Front should be ok and accident free, so I assume that the owners never service the car properly. When I got it last service for ATF was at 44k KM, dunno whether they did any before that or not. At 57k KM change ATF all brownish doh.gif.
