what is your 16" tyre size?
if use back R3 spec tyre size, it will not reduce the wheel arch gap and still look like 15" size

Dashboard got a constant "bzzzzzzz" sound, but not happens everytime. Macam comes from left side airbag area, confirm not from drawer. Tend to happen more during cornering from my observation, still it will randomly occur in other situation too. Ahhhh damn annoying

Btw I am SV, brake sound still can save? haha

Stock alloy sport rims are usually heavy duty ones thus unlike most cheap sport rims, they don't bend easily. Just change the tyres to a better one that can improve driving satisfaction, ie cornering, hydroplaning, thread looks, etc instead.

Frankly I don't really see changing out the ok looking alloy rims to other sport rims really improve the looks with the exception of R3 ori rims, that gunmetal rims really looks good on PE but comes with high price.

Lol. Is that how you judge a brake system ah?

Persona progressive braking lah.. Japanese cars all sekali tekan ur jantung also fall out wan. Proton's failed attempt at continentalizing the car = progressive braking.
Yup. They will park your car there for 6 hours then return the keys to you n tell you your car has been fixed.

I don't like the brakes that come on pretty strongly even with a light press, like my dad's car doh.gif. Langsung cannot do a jerk free stop. Persona on the other hand has a perfect brake response for me.

On a side note, I went to a regular air-cond shop to get a quotation. If everything goes well, I'll be having a full air-cond service which includes removing the dashboard that'll be over RM300 cry.gif. On the bright side I can now add some Insulflex into the dash and do some improvements to the inner workings of the dashboard to prevent any unwanted dashboard noise. So far I don't have any dashboard noise, but I have air-cond vents noise. The middle air-cond vent assembly will be replaced tomorrow, and if the side vents are cheap, I'll probably get them replaced as well.

this is major air cond service lo ohmy.gif ohmy.gif
last time i go sc for 30k service and they offer me rm300 for air cond service but i din ask for more cos i say no..

Ooi....Jason already cakap, it is ORIGINAL KYB. Not fake KYB. Another OEM for Proton but our Proton as Jason as re-confirm for me is APM stock. If I'm not mistaken, I think KYB is slightly shorter than the stock APM, not sure of that info tho.

at second thought, the link is wrote original proton persona parts, taken out from an elegance..
thats why beogatts thought our stock is KYB..

mine starting making noise when pass thru a bump.. hmm.gif hmm.gif

QUOTE(jasonloh7906 @ Jun 17 2014, 07:12 PM)
check fuelly. mine is 130k. if you own a persona, i think you might wanna forget about getting good fc compared to a lot of car. the car is 1.2ton while most car like the vios, city, almera are around 1ton. which is approx 200kg difference. which means that when you are driving alone, it is equal to a vios, city, almera with full load of approx 50kg per person. everytime.
like a quote in initial d, you can't change the car basic characteristics which is it weight. unless you go extreme and make the hood, the door, the bumper and everything to carbon fiber. remove spare tyres, use light weight rims, change to light weight glass. and after doing that maybe you can cut down the weight to be the same with vios, city, almera. that is when your fc will start get near to their fc figure.
if you really want me to suggest, i suggest getting a diesel, or a hybrid which i am still thinking which to change.
nowadays tech are good too. car like mirage, attrage, all are good enough to have twice better fc than our car.
*
and we are adding weight into our car..
soundproof la, sound system la..bla bla bla

I'm supposed to switch tyres in these coming weeks. Becoming deeply concern with the reported unbearable noise of C-Drive 2 when worn. Either that or go for XM2 instead, much quieter or not?

some say XM2 is overrated and not so quiet compare CD2
