Got my 2.0SX Titanium Steel yesterday, and have to go outstation already today! Can't believe got my car just to put it in carpark.
Anyway, looking forward to giving it a go again once back home. Curious, been following the forum for quite some time, and lots have commented on changing the tyres to MC5. I think the current ones suits me fine, must be my meaty ass LOL P.S. not to make fun of all the sifus here, but do you all like purposely go through potholes just to try them out?  |

QUOTE(lingleeyen @ Aug 24 2013, 11:17 PM) Bro, I had no complain at all on the tyre until I reach 2000km. Why? I came from 2nd batch Saga BLM. As you may know, it is not quiet in the cabin. Therefore, upgrading to Forte is a big leap and everything seems so good. Cannot complain more. However, the more I drive, the more I find it to be wrong. After I have sat in Fortes with different tyres, I got stunned on how quiet they can be. If you want to tahan poison, don't get poisoned, don't sit in another Forte with different tyres. The stock tyre is hard, noisy. Performance wise I have no complain though. Yeah, if it's that good, may consider it once the current batch wears out.Don't purposely go through pot holes. Not only there is a risk to burst your tyre, you might dent your rims.  Thanks a bunch! Well, seems like still far away left before 2k, will see what else I experience. But the creaking in the dashboard is really irritating as many has mentioned. |

Ok noob question,
1) Front tower bar 2) Rear Anti Roll Bar 3) Rear Lower Arm Bar 4) Stiff Ring These were recommended by the sifus here to improve the 'feel' and handling of the car. But couldn't find out if the above voids the warranty? Can try asking SC, but somehow feel they will just say, change it, you are responsible for it P.S. so slow to reach my 1st 1k km  |

QUOTE(WiZaRD85 @ Oct 12 2013, 12:17 PM) If our car does not have shift lock, then IMHO installing pedal lock is a waste of money. Since, the gear can still be shifted and I can still start my car using the secondary start procedure without stepping on brake. Putting the pedal lock just act as a deterrent to would be car-jackers. If they really want to steal your car, they will find a way. It's just they need to determine whether worth the risk extra couple of minutes to get all the locks taken out But the P-shift thing kinda bugged me in the beginning too because so use to pedal the brake before shifting gear LOL Just joined the SMM FB page, damn lots of poison there too ha ha, but luckily not all can fit into Forte...... yet. |
