Same.

1. Did 2 layers soundproofing  on all 4 doors + egg-shaped  dome sound absorber on front 2 doors. STP brand.

Not only help to reduce external noise, it does boost your speaker bass. Significant improvement. Shut door also give you "duub" sound.

Hi Siamanggap bro,

I just buy a wifi miracast dongle. And I cant plug in the hdmi into the city hdmi port. May I know if I need to buy another hdmi male to female adapter so that the miracast dongle hdmi port can plug into this adapter? From the diagram, I think you connect to the hdmi adapter instead of city hdmi port right?

Thank you bro

+1. I am using PS3 on sold my original v-specs rim. Currently using OZ Racing (6.6kg) vs Ori V-Spec from Enkei (~9kg). Pickup feel the same. The only drawback is that 205 tyre potruded out a little from the arch (front only, ~less than 1cm). Arising from that, dirt will hit the side mirror/body especially when pass through wet road. New city does not come with mudguard unlike the older gen.

Besides, PS3 give you better comfort compare to original GY Excellence. I thought 50 series will give bumpy ride compare to 55 but michelin prove me wrong. According to my dad, PS3 rubber is softer so it provides comfort and excellent grip. Tayar also supposingly botak faster  tongue.gif
Stock rim can go up to 195. 6j really limit the choice of tyre. you will need 7jj for 205.

How much u get for the stock v spec rims and tyres?

Thanks

Rim about 800-900. Cant remember exact.

As for soundproofing, about Rm1.4k. Egg-shaped STP alone RM250 per door. You can opt not to do it but this stuff help to insulate against vibrating plastic door panel and metal door frame. On top of that, it helps to absorb external noise. According to Sh@rty (lyn kaki as well), there is huge difference between cheapo brand and stp even though both similarly shaped. I cannot tell for sure since never fix cheapo brand. He has video demo but i never watch it.

However, obvious difference before and after.

I think 6jj has no problem with 205 tyre. Maybe looks a bit fat only.
I fitted 235 and 265 on 6.5jj rim before. But that's 4x4 though.

Oh, you did at Sh@rty? Last time i get my pedallock from him. After reading somewhere, there's some comment that maybe doing the floor first will be better to insulate against noise, rather than doors. Limited budget...need to attack the noisest part first.

I used to just walk-in at Roda BB and gets all done within 1-2 hours

Best of all I like the honesty of their service rep...they explain all, one by one, what is min required what is optional...

Maybe someone can post picture of 205 tyre on 6jj rim. Currently with 7jj 205 also a little bulge. I prefer those "straight" sidewall rather than having it bulge out. I saw Civic 2.0 original 17" rim with PS3 got straight sidewall hmm.gif. However on 16", it is not so straight. Is this due to 55 series (16") vs 45 series (17")?

No idea. Never try p3st but i heard primacy series are sway towards comfort and noise compare to ps3. If not mistaken, primacy cost more than pilot sport.

Currently i can't really hear outside noise much. Playing song from Youtube (in HD), with volume around 15-20 will mask out most of external noise after soundproofing. If soundproofing floor, not sure money spend will yield any significant result. Sometimes I can't hear my own "horn" also. Honda horn really "sissy".

Most stock horn all sissy. Even my Inspira horn I have changed..damn..why you remind me??? More poi$on.....urrghhhh....
I am stuck with little budget..maybe can only do one thing now. Should I change my tyres to Advan Db or CC5 or do some basic soundproofing first?

Pls advise. Tq!
