brake pads didn't fade on the way back, had about 5 to 10 minutes of cooling, per min maybe -2 to 5 Celsius http://twitpic.com/dxca5u
(that's 139Celcius btw)

new worst fc record lol! (full trip from technology park Malaysia to Kepong) http://twitpic.com/dxca8f

thanks bros

oo thanks for the input...

as for rapidbald... never again la...
for further details can discuss on TT/pm lol.

EBC green... after this morning's experience... i actually have doubts if green can withstand the braking requirements...
while i have never faded the greens on my iswara, this car is around twice the hp and almost 3 times the torque figures with about 300kg+ additional weight compared to my iswara.

while the pads are indeed rated for 200bhp cars, and official temperature is 200+ Celcius (that's the temperature that EBC guarantees, not lol 550C), i'm thinking that the inspira may perhaps require even greater braking force than what green can offer.

points that caused such doubts:
- greens are cheaper than akebono (if price were to determine braking quality, the greens are in a lot of doubts lol)
- regular driving to TPM for the iswara with non vented discs (they are only x drilled/slotted, i doubt that helps in cooling at all), is about 100-150Celcius, the inspira can yield over 150 (considering the time it had to cool before i took the reading) with the same driving.
this would mean the inspira is actually producing much more braking heat despite having larger ventilated discs than the iswara.

i'm wondering, would red stuff be adequate then? although those need a bit of warming up haha
then again ebc claims that warm up are not required, i personally think best to keep it slow until some heat is generated since it is primarily ceramic based

hmm maybe it's due to being stock suspension that's why it actually oversteers easier? (rear ARB aside)
i think the main contribution of the oversteering is from the front suspension nose diving too much... (never ever fender rubbed, which is nice LOL!) and of course the accompanied body roll (and here i commend our stock seats, my ass didn't flew to the center console/side windows ) while cornering over 140kph at besraya (will take 2 ish lanes depending on the traffic) minor out in out apex curves.

if i didn't practice racing lines and corner like that, either the asc saves me or i have the tail crash the divider which i experienced during firestorm test while at saga TT

btw i love that highway for cornering; very challenging for fatter/heavier cars as you actually have to take your cornering g's/car weight into considering regardless if the car by itself can handle the corner or not (tires/suspensions)
never experienced such requirements for the iswara at all, only needed to care about the car's own performance

you referred to this right? http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Yokohama/ADVAN-Sport.htm

however check this out:
http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Yokohama...-Sport-V105.htm
this is why it piqued my interest

btw it seems like advan sport v105 is marketed with an additional s in the UK? lol
http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Yokohama...Sport-V105S.htm


only 5 reviews with all positive. i don't care about wear/comfort since the ad08r is more durable than i thought, not to mention it's comfort was rather OK and i believe the asymmetric tread pattern should ease off the nvh a lot more than the ad08r would.

there's 2 megane RS that reviewed although all the reviews didn't left comments except this:

shit english but eh can get the gist of it lol

can go with stock rims
cc5 when you finish ah?

it's rare as f*** to see yokohama in the lead when it comes to wet

btw from the video, the advan v105 had the reviewer smiling with the bmw roar sounding the best... that's huge plus in my book

Thanks bro!

i slowly use la, dai ba treads left

thanks bro! 1986 guy

thanks bro

is that good or bad wo?
and i thought this has more to do with money and not age? lol

thanks! haven't got the time to try genting yet myself, should give it a go when ah liam free so can yamcha as well haha

i thought FWD would be more prone to understeer...
come to think of it, our car sporty meh? some more proton R&H also further tune it to be less tail happy compared to the LGT counterpart.

but yea as the article described, i tend to just throttle during/out of corner to weight shift back to correct the car direction. most of the time it works, some times i just had too much g's/momentum on the corner my ASC had to correct for me
seriously damn good system lol... totally not intrusive at all haha.

=edit=


nailed it


yea this is what i was speculating earlier.

nope lol.

ownself replace lo

lol i also need to send the car back sc as the sound came back as loud as before fix again... i wonder if whatever they did on the exhaust heat shield reverted? lol.

maybe considering to get them to replace the bearings and see how it goes from there.

lol poison nih.

still learning how to drive lorh

i remembered people posting pictures of the brake pads and the mitsubishi pad #

maybe can ask nzh0920 sani
http://www.mitsubishipartswarehouse.com/pa...m?siteid=214581

doesn't have part # geh

now regret lo, like all the relatives also criticized me for not going god car lorh

black kaler

i got a solution on the brakedust - sonax rim coating (bought from sales for cheap )

that's why you're sifu and i just normal guy

still got exhaust tip!

shinjun

got red glowing mitsubishi logo on the sides too for that added kick when you speed above 200kph

that shit game have nothing on red glowing logos man.

omg nak lol
