Alright thanks for the feedback~~

so we dont really need another one~~

One more thing~~saw on FB a few guys actually changed their wire harness....which is recommended by proton HQ~~any one else do so?
*
Wire harness is a recall done by proton for those chassis number under 48k..

I have faced the same issue when tackling high speed cornering during one of my trip to Genting. But, had to back off because i dont have that much trust on Champiro.. If its Conti Sport Contact, Bridgestone Potenza or even Michelin Pilot, yes i would whack to the max..

same here on the tyre opinion. Proton can give Achilles to Suprima, Conti Max to Satria Neo, but gives us only Champiro doh.gif

i really hate that tyre, gives me no confidence to tackle corners. i'll changed it to other brand when the thread wears off later. right now eyeing myself Yoko A.drive R1, favorite tires among drifters, there must be something good in it
*
Totally agreed.. i feel more comfortable tackling corner with a Wira using Bridgestone compared to our car..

Even World Champion Vettel is no match to his rookie team mate Riciardo when Vettel is on shitty, worn tyres.

Tyres are extremely important. ESC, ABS, EBD... none of them can help much if you are on shitty tyres. Champiro was supposed to be an eco tyre, not performance. You need a set of much better tyres.
*
True enough.. next set of tires do need to be a better.. but cant expect it to be fuel saving..

eco tyre? hmmm, maybe my future set of tyres will be Michelin then.
don't really feel eco-saving on mine... RM100 gives my 300+ KM only.

Just got my radiator fan cable harness replaced today, took only 45 minutes, much faster than I expected. Changed my car batt as well, century marathoner, 245 after trading in the old batt. Not the cheapest I guess.

Wow.. That was fast.. i left my car for half a day..

Should be Multilink, but his statement saying handling was no difference between gen2 and preve, as he was expecting huge improvement over gen2's torsion beam, which made me confused. rclxub.gif
*
I would say, generally Proton cars handling is one of the best in its class.. if you jump to a preve from a myvi or viva, yes you would feel so much better in terms of handling and comfort..

I drove my bro myvi once in a blue moon.....Steel balls pun dah lembut....LOL

"They" Claim that preve handling is better than altis...I would like to give a try  rclxms.gif

I would definitely say its better..Altis is more towards comfort.. one of my friend (a civic FD owner) once drove a preve CFE uphill to genting and he saluted preve.. whats your say on this? but still cant handle better compared to a Focus.
