Jpj only put road block until raya, so no worry, another thing is no need to do so much reading about the spec, best is go to shop and try putting on the rim u like, if ok, take it

It's okie bro....
GAB maybe can get very cheap if you know the dealer's boss or the Distributor Boss well.
I bought my GAB SS (Super Street) for myvi is around 2.2k.
Not sure abt for Forte. but price should be around there....  biggrin.gif

But after using it for less than a yr switched to other better brand of adjustable.  laugh.gif
*
may i know the reason u switch to other brand of adjustable?
btw, is IMP better than GAB since both are local brand

well at 1st to support friend's product then after used my friend's adjustable no regret at all.
Street and track use as well. Thumbs up for that brand.

Ya IMP/GAB are local products. Didnt use IMP product before but then i know they are quite famous for normal absorbers. If not mistaken they named it after Improve.

thanks for the info

Hi all sifus,

1)i just bought my forte 1.6sx last week. i notice that my driver seats got sound when i was driving. the sound is coming from the spring at the seats. any advice?
2) is it good if i go to highway now and speed up? my car is just 1 week.
3)i am going to have my 1st service(1000km), between mineral, semi syn and fully syn, which 1 better?
4) will the warranty void if i change speed navi to papago?
5)my FC now is very high, 13.5l/100km. i not sure it's the calculation is wrong or what. but i never reset to zero since i get the car. my mileage is just 100+km now.
I really need your help. Thanks.
*
1) i have ngek ngek sound when my car was new. the sound disappear after few mths

2) my understanding is, dun remain the same speed n dun exceed 4k rpm will do

3) i use fully due to the laziness and save some money compare to semi

4) they can void ur HU warranty but i think u keep the speednavi file there will do. if anything happen, juz take out the sd card n delete the papago.

5) i think better to judge after 10k km

Sifu-sifu sekalian, was wondering...considering that our car's stock rim specs are 7j/ pcd 5x114.3...Would "7.5j" rims fit without causing any problems? Been eyeing some rims but the ones i fancy are all 7.5j sleep.gif (like the Lenso ProjectD Spec E)
*
7.5j is ok
saw ppl put 8-9j somemore tongue.gif
i think spec E is ok (unless u wanna go for rota rim, takethe 9j et+30 brows.gif )
sifu-sifu, pls correct me if im wrong

EDIT==> im not sifu smile.gif

Depends on your offset also.....higher offset = the tire will be inner (inside fender), lower offset = the tire will be out

this is what i read....

Stock rims are 17x7JJ +48 offset....
so if go for +38 to +40 should be no problem and also depends on the rims' width.
I'm thinking to change SSR Type F 17 but then after fitted in car the design looks like 16''.. Lolz....

bro, u r right. thats y my fren go for 18" ssr biggrin.gif
