I read his review oledi, I just wanna ask if this really worth RM30 extra than PS3? I mean the performance~
*
It won't be just "extra rm 30"

If ps 3 can last 40k km, and Ad08r 20k km, you do the math which tire is more expensive

Then again, on my low powered iswara it barely have any wear at all

While another member evo x lasted about 18k km and 3 Sepang track days.
So the tread wear isn't as bad as people say (especially those that never used it)

I'm using Torco SR1-R..can get it from kennywee92 sure give you good price.. biggrin.gif

for regular driving, try to get the non-r instead which are API-SN and GF5 certified which will contain the needed additives/detergents for extended OCI (if preferred or at least it is guaranteed to maintain engine cleanliness on regular OCI)
refer torco's website for data spec sheets/comparison, or the API licensing directories.

R series is catered to shorter intervals/spirited driving or even occasion track day purposes smile.gif

Thanks for that explaination,i already know that but in the web not stated to have 10W-40 for non R which my needs.Will try to confirm with the seller again if not next oil change will go for 5W-40 and non R. icon_rolleyes.gif
btw i always go above 180 with this oil is that consider regular driving.. tongue.gif

got xw40: http://www.torcousa.com/torco_product/sr-1.html
only thing is only xw20 and xw30 are GF5 resource conservation certified i believe (very hard, almost impossible to get resource conservation certification for thicker viscosity EO)

180kph on neo 5th gear shouldn't be in the red line i reckon? i've drove my iswara 3 speed auto >7k rpm on a frequent basis laugh.gif
so yeah, very regular driving if you ask me.

i don't mind taking free laugh.gif
add into my stash of EO's lol
ya i happen to keep a stash of torco/motul/liqui moly for my various cars under my car (sis/mom, and my 2 cars lol)

on a serious note: no harm mixing the leftovers when you get regular SR1 instead nod.gif

hahaha, initially want to change the rubbers only (205/45/R16) but upon arriving at the shop no stock pulak~ so he offered me 15" wheels + AD08R tyres for RM1900 (trade in old 16" wheels) as opposed to 16" tyres only price of RM1920~ very tempting that offer and my instinct is so strong for AD08R so there it goes~

today just got opportunity to try it and very satisfied with it~ Firstly,  it was raining heavily in Shah Alam and it does not aquaplane easily (as there are myth that this kind of tires performed very badly in wet, the grip feels just like T1R before (driving in wet 90-100 km/h) so I am very satisfied with it (no matter how expensive your tires are, do not drive in insane speed during rain).

Then, I tried in Karak uphill and it was mixture of damp road (light rain) and dry. To my surprise, the grip is way better than T1R, it was my mind playing games with me to let go off the throttle (not confident when using T1R) but I just plant my foot down and it corner without a sweat! There are corners that I usually shift down to get more traction but after getting used to AD08R grip, I don't have to shift down and just enter the corner with confidence. 140km/h attacking those corner is very easy (I'm just a noob driver unlike Quazacolt)~ notworthy.gif

Then I purposely took Temerloh exit to see how it perform in normal road. From Temerloh to Kuantan, it was dry and hot all the way but there are some sections where the tarmac are loose and this tyres grip as expected. Attacking those corners is definitely a newfound confidence to me.

There's my initial review after about 500km of usage.

Thanks to Quazacolt for the poison~ damn!
*
i noob driver also still in learning process just like everyone else blush.gif

but yea as you've read my reviews/links especially tire rack's benchmarks, the wet grip is truly phenomenal and anyone who says otherwise (at least to my knowledge) are either using the older ad08/ad07 as basis without ever trying the ad08r or they are just pulling shit out of their ass.

while i certainly do not encourage reckless driving/speeding, i've done >140-160kph in heavy rain with splash waves over my car roof and boy if theres a video camera recording my face, it'd be a damn messed up look as i was laughing all the way with a wide smile as if possessed by the tires urging me to push even further.
i can't say the same if the treads are further worn down (they don't exactly have a lot of tread/water drainage grooves mind you), but as it stands with fresh treads, wet grip is just awesome for this AD08R laugh.gif

and as you've probably noticed already, with these tires around, you will have increased urge to have fun with it wink.gif
the feedback, laser precision handling as everyone described it is just one of a kind. and words like this will never be understood unless you've tried it yourself personally.

all in all glad you're having fun with them, and of course drive safe wink.gif

I dunno if my gb is Japanese or not, need to check~ but I have tried Eneos, Redline D4 and Proton ATF all same feeling~ no one in the list showed significant improvement~ the difference is the price~ so I'm sticking to proton ATF only coz it is cheap and reliable~

But for EO, definitely got difference~ currently on Liqui Moly~ gooding and not too expensive~
*
Can't comment on the Eneos, however red line and Proton atf sp 3 are of different specification /standards. So you really got to find out what at box model you're on.

Another thing would be if you actually want manually shift your at box, if you don't I guess Proton atf is fine.

For me personally Proton atf can't last more than 5 to 10k km, degrades too damn fast and shifts will delay a lot sad.gif

50/liter, but again better get the correct model /specs. Using wrong atf would decrease transmission performance and potentially damage gearbox

My ATF is based on Mitsubishi SP-III standard and this Motul conform to that too. Where I can buy the ATF at RM50/litre? I look around in the forum, the seller quote RM58/litre.

i've bought century marathoner as recommended by you. so far so good. i wanna ask you about the tubing connected to the battery. what is the purpose of the tube? my 'pomen' said it is used to 'buang angin' of the battery. i don't understand much. hoho. mind to explain? is it really necessary?  hmm.gif

use this:
CODE
[@afiqms]


the vent tube/hole is used to release gas build up within the battery (so it doesn't over pressure when hot/over load and potentially burst/explode)

vent the tube somewhere that doesn't mind sulphuric acid/gas (basically area not prone to corrosion)

Used Royal Purple before but I dun feel any significant improvement~ I am still rooting for Liqui Moly MOS2, not too expensive and I can feel the difference~

engine not just about butt dyno feel, still need to consider cleanliness, how many km's it'll deteriorate, actual engine protection so on so forth.

if you're using good EO, changing EO/servicing will be the most boring thing ever since you won't get "improvement" as your EO doesn't deteriorate/degrade even on the day you do your OCI (changing eo/servicing)

Any auto user penah from N u keep on rev then change to D? Konon mcm manual lah ada sketching when u change to D. Willl this damage the gear in the future? Before this always do at my dad's car waja non campro/cps but still okay till now almost 9years already.

try not to do a neutral drop.
yes it does have a torque converter and you're essentially splashing atf around which still isn't good. (try banging a bucket of water, your hands also pain right?)

however that doesnt mean you can't launch a torque converter auto, in fact a lot of americans also prefer torque converters on the dragstrip because it can store kinetic energy before the launch.

what you do is you have your brakes clamping the wheels harder with your left foot (neutral, step brakes, rev a bit to generate some engine vacuum for the brake pumps and you'll get the brake pedals sinking in further), put to D (or 2/L whichever you wanna start with), and FULL throttle, you'll notice your rev will be between 2-4k rpm depending on car/transmission design, when you're ready to go, let go of the brakes biggrin.gif

In order to clear the air....and clear my stupid mistake in writing that post linked there...

What I meant is

LCP will shorten the time when upshifting the gear while originally the stock gear box will initially hold it back for a while before shifting upwards.

That means it will switch the gear pretty fast and increase acceleration without car pulling the car back (PE got major tendency to do that). Thus without LCP, I won't even consider driving PE now

letme guess, automatic right? if manual totally no relation since you control it after all lol...

but yea it's those few keywords that people will hound you forever for it sweat.gif
