Hi Guys, Just a question here, You guys service your car when your millage reaches 5k ,10k, 15k,20k.... or you guys do service based on the the date which is servicing it every 3 Months. I know the manual says whichever comes first but from Facebook and Forum, it seems like many just follow the millage where they service their car only when the car reaches a certain  millage but not whichever comes first?

If servicing only based on Millage will lead to warranty being voided right?

Either 5k km or every three months, whichever comes first. Not following they might refuse to entertain ur claim for warranty.

Nowadays, after my Z's engine off for few hours, I start engine, wait for 1-2 min to let the engine heat up, then when I swift to gear 1 and slowly release the clutch and pressing the acceleration, I feel my engine is not "smooth" anymore, it will shake a bit.. But after I drive it for 5min, it won't happen anymore..

Can advise.. ? sad.gif

Did u notice any drop in rpm when it shakes?

Guys i need some serious help here. Not a CRZ owner yet but soon i highly believe. smile.gif

I m now looking at 2 options which is 2012 prefacelift CRZ around rm80k and facelifted model at rm90k. (MANUAL)

Which one is worth the money? I really like the pre facelift CRZ as it looks nicer in the front bumper. But performance wise? Please give your comment as many as possible! (For instance, which one is more reliable to modify? Which one has more potential to modify? and which one has more parts in the market?)

p/s wow i noticed many of the CRZ owners here used to own a Satria Neo which is in my case as well   blush.gif
The reason i pick this CRZ is that i hardly find any car below 90k with the handling of Satria Neo  sad.gif

Which one is more reliable to modify? Both the same,
Which one has more potential to modify? Probably the fl since you can play with the s button and battery battery for acceleration otherwise it's the same.
Which one has more parts in the market? The only difference for both cars is the IMA battery only in terms of parts.
Which one is more worth thr money? This u decide urself la. Pre fl has spare tire, fl doesn't. Fl has a button and stronger batt compared to pre fl which gives extra 13 hp. Other than that it's the same

Went to honda dealer just now, they told crz no more 123k price, it's 17+k walawey a bit gulp in front the amoi there. I asked y price increase, she cant explain very well n i dun understand what she said, but will try to do some research on that.. Due to no more discount for hybrid car??

Anyway managed to get a look on the new jazz, the ultra seat? Err  sweat.gif

I work in r&d for automotive seat company, n it scared me when the SA there show me how the rear seat worked  doh.gif not sure on the reliability of the seat, but look forward for some review from jazz owners
*
Well it's the same seats from the previous jazz and so far no complains from them

Personally I avoid cosmetics which adds weight to the car until I supercharge it. Our Z is very sensitive to weight. So if you add body kit and bigger rims, will have adverse impact on your pick up. My car is 100% stock until warranty over. Then this can be my project car. For now the car lacks mid range and there has been some very good sharing from the ppl here on how to overcome that.

Wah ur gonna wait till the IMA battery warranty over? Long way to go

Hye evryone

Currently im planning to buy crz..

Went to used cars yesterday & they got 2013 CVT model with mileage 12000 km..

They sell around RM 110k excluding insurance..

Is the price ok or too expensive?

Call SA regarding new model, they said no stock anymore & price will be around 170k in next year..

Wah 110k very expensive o, should be ard 100

i didnt literately bought the springs.. sweat.gif  but tested on other members cars whom installed the other options thats on the market.. tested from Eibach, Tien, Gab, Mugen (with fixed dampers), H&R, and other brands..

as for my case i immediately settled "down"  with Spoon Springs..  tongue.gif

some say ist about the brand and some say is about the functionality..but for me its about Comfort and price.. i do not want to sacrifice the stock handling and comfort springs.. but i do wanna give is a bit lower stance.. the options that comes close to it are Spoon Progressive Springs

below are the visual looks before and after
*
So meaning spoon springs can also give the same comfort yet allow our car to be lowered as well?

Sound insulation on door.. i did a cheap method of doing a layer of dynamat with akai foam strips to reduce vibration and improve sound absorption on the door.. I haven't done my fenders and floor yet..

I always try to look as OEM as possible for my interior so while I didn't change my player, I have had a change of my front speakers to Blaupunkt's 6.5" comp sets while adding in an active 8" woofer from Blaupunkt too.. I have a 2channel amp ready but have yet to install them.. waiting for warranty to habis this year..
*
Any significant difference after changing the front speakers?
