QUOTE(Intel@Atom @ Dec 31 2013, 05:33 PM) a quick question here, i just changed my 4 tyres but the foreman found that all my rim dented quite seriously during balancing. is it necessary to repair it? the foreman said better change a new set becoz repair 4 rims isn't cheap and wise. what will happen if i dont repair or change it? if it is better to change a new set then what are the factors should i take into consideration when selecting a new rim? appreciate your advice This is the main reason i change mine.

is there a way to remap the gear ratio?? i barely noticed the 3rd gear, and some how kinda hate the 6th gear starting around 70kmh....
5th gear should stay all the way to 120kmh....because at that speed, rpm still not exceed 3000.

QUOTE(rompers @ Jan 15 2014, 10:16 AM) If speed is your thing, I'd suggest you forget both Lancer/Inspira and Forte... Heck, with current traffic conditions within the Klang Valley..you might as well forget about getting a car for speed. Get a YZF-R1 instead  actually some one did vs lancer. read some where back then. 2.0 vs 2.0...stock vs stock. he claim forte win. and he really proud with the result.

QUOTE(epo @ Jan 16 2014, 03:21 PM) Up to traffic condition... If using MRR2, i always stick to 3rd gear for zoom zoom experience... If someone follow u constantly, u should drop to 2nd gear... 4th gear no power laaa... the logic same like 6 speeder also. stay at 5th, just in case. hate it when auto change to 6th at 60-70kmh....no power at all...

vios reliability superior since it have no new tech or feature, and proven ancient specification for local. it is so damn basic, very easy to diagnosis and repair. anyway dont compore vios with forte  some one did tukar from vios trd to forte. i just forgot who....
