QUOTE(lingleeyen @ Jul 31 2013, 06:18 PM) Oh. If it is genuine UR bar then the price is cheap. I installed rear ARB for 480, front tower bar for 220. Bundled up is 650 in total. Make sure that they use torque wrench. You will not want one nut tightened tighter than the other. Load distributed will not be even on all the nut points hence wearing that one or 2 particular point. Alright thx for the tips. Still wondering should I do it. He do sell a lot forte equipment. Not sure yet is it good bt fb ppl seems to trust them. |

wanna ask those that change to 16" rim. I have thought for a while whether to change 17" to 16" as my friend told me 16" rim with thicker profile tires like MC5 would run better on malaysia roads (potholes, bad condition roads).
any sifu here can share their experience? |

QUOTE(XBB @ Aug 2 2013, 02:24 PM) means my conclusion is right d...coz i will sakit hati fork out 2k+ for premium tinting which gives same performance..... Yeah my main concern is 16" rim fit for malaysian lousy roads. Although 17" is a looker but feel stupid after driving like a horse. Thx for the tips. Gonna research on Rims. spare me some recommendation brand if any? but previously drive under the sun with 4 fan Low temperature..... i will sweat all the way till destination inside the car..... |

QUOTE(navhin29 @ Aug 4 2013, 11:40 AM) Mostly i drive in KL during night time. So, less traffic. Will try as you said, should see the outcome. I saw a post way back version, someone mention about ways to pump petrol as Im following as well 1. when pump dont press full speed, lock it at the 1st pump speed. (will take awhile) 2. dont over pump after it stop. (but I stick with RM80 manually) 3. pump during evening time 4. dont pump when u see petrol truck filling tank RM80 i manage to go 450km with 70% city as I work in KL. |

QUOTE(sathyendran @ Aug 5 2013, 11:33 AM) Check with Speedmod (Cheras), that was the shop recommended for good workmanship. yeah hahaha I stick with cost efficient 1st.1. Front top UR bar = RM200 2. Anti Roll UR bar = RM480 3. Orsen skid plate = RM350 4. Front & Rear Buffer = RM160 5. Stif Rings = RM280 Thats what i got so far when i surveyed around. Its not necessary to add all this. Get to know your ride and decide what you want to improve. These are things that was recommended during my survey, for now * The price may vary Stif Rings & Buffer |
