Congrats on V8

Almost 4k for the DVD/Navigation system? A little too expensive I think.. what brand are those? I hope not those 'OEM' one since I'm pretty sure you can get those for under 2K.

A shop here in Nilai quote me 1.4k for the kit (PP material) including paint+installation. So the price should be around that i think, maybe more or less RM100 depending on your place.

Any one downgrade their rim to 15" from 16"?

Hehe same as mine, need to drill 4 holes to secure the spoiler, but looks very nice compared to the duck tail one so I wouldn't mind the holes. I got mine installed at Honda, pretty sure warranty is intact. Its the official modulo kit from them after all.

No, just the spoiler. But I'll plan to do the whole kit some day, the kit actually adds stability to the car so its not just for decoration. (from what I read at other Honda City forum. huhu)

Price not bad for the LockTech, let us know how's the installation went.. not sure how much for the grill, probably 200 - 300?

Yea I saw that news on paper yesterday, but I think it only works for car that have 1 button to unlock/lock the car. City got 2 buttons to unlock/lock so when they record the frequencies to lock, they can't unlock.. unless they record your unlock frequencies and wait for you to come back some other day.

Just my thought, not sure if this is really the case.. huhu.

For better fuel economy, and cheaper tire as well. Can use 195/55/R15 tire too right? A bit more comfort I guess with the thicker tire? Huhu. Maybe doesn't look so nice.

Congrats bro, we got the same colour but I didn't opt for the body kit. Just the wing type spoiler

I heard that the door visor is the main cause for wind noise when driving at speed above 120km/h. I got one installed as well but thinking of removing it because of it.. is it true?

Planing to replace my filter with K&N as well, just waiting for the stock filter to get dirty enough for replacement.

Haha once you start to drive above 120km/h then then wind noise does get a bit annoying. The visor does looks really cool, which is why I'm a bit hesitant to take it off.. Maybe should drive a bit slower so no wind noise. Haha.

Would you mind taking photo of the body kit on your ride? Workmanship is good? Where did you install yours?

What's your previous ride?

You're Waja is the one with Mitsu engine or Campro? The car served you well already

Oh nice.. RM999 wihtout the spoiler? The bodykit does't need to remove our existing bumper eh? Just stick on using 3M tape?

That's a good price oh.. really tempted now. Haha.

I already have the spoiler so price should be a bit less that RM999..

What's this one?

"Modulo Aluminium Plate X 2pcs"

Got any photo?

Ah okay got it, thanks mate. I thought the number plate. Haha

Awesome!! thanks for sharing, now i really tempted to go and install the kit on mine as well, hope got bonus this year

Hahaha photoshoot session with your beloved City. Maybe I can join in as well

I'm actually planning to use this size for my next tire as well, hard to find eh?


I'm using ADrive, FC not much different than stock (got about 460km per tank or so), wear I'm not sure since its been only a few month since I change my tire. I don't remember how the old one sound but City road noise insulation is terrible so I think pretty much the same. Haha.

Does anyone feel that our car is a bit heavy to accelerate? I always feels like I'm carrying a huge load in the back or something.. it helps if I could lose a few KGs myself but I feels like the car could do better.

Hmm probably the rim, the stock rim is pretty heavy. After market 16" light rim is expensive, maybe down grade to 15"?


Your warranty over already? How much is the 60k services cost?

You're probably right, the car is quite heavy for the 1.5l engine.. highway cruising is good though


Oh no wonder it does feels a bit bumpier compared to the stock tire.. maybe I should go back to 185/55 for my next tire change.. its hard to find 195/55 yea?

I will, just waiting for the stock filter to get dirty enough for replacement

You using this? How much does it cost? I heard the XM2 is quieter so I might just swap my current tire with this.. or downgrade to 15" with and use 195/60/R15.. haha.

I'm using 195/50/R16 right now.. huhu.. hard to find 195/55/R16..

Haha yeah, maybe I'll try to reduce the tire pressure for now, thanks for the suggestion. But I'm seriously considering 185/55/R16 back for my next tire change..

195/185 is the width of the tire, wider is generally better for stability and handling but will also increase the fuel consumption a bit.

55/50 is the thickness of the tire profile (the sidewall). thicker profile will make the care more comfortable but will also cause more body roll compared to a thin profile. Thin profile looks good (especially on 17" rim) but the car will be quite harsh and hard..

The default City (E) is 185/55/R16..

Hope this shed some light to your question, it may not be the brightest light though. Haha.


Your MP3 bitrate is below 320k? Mine work flawlessly with Kingston 32GB thumbdrive.

What happen to your car? The side mirror issue?

Price quite good, thanks for sharing.

Ah, good to know. But I'm curious why didn't it defaulted to 8k byte per unit when you formated the pendrive?


Any thought on 15" rim? Does it look weird with a 205 tire? I might downgrade to a 15" rim on my next tire change, just not too sure about the tire size.

Is it very obvious? I can't hear anything when the car shift gear.. maybe you can try recording the sound and show it to them?

Anyone else using this type of door visor? I'm thinking of removing it since it is causing a lot of wind noise..



p/s - not my car

I'll be using a different rims so I'll try to find one with 6 or 7 inch jj. From the calculator, the closest size I could go for is 205/55/R15 or 195/60/R15. Will that hit the fender you reckon?
