QUOTE(chrisstse @ Mar 3 2015, 09:31 PM) After 1 month of hu ha, i finally got my car after the accident... Sounds like ada short circuit or earth tarak cukup. I repair my iSwaga on an ad-hog basis. Mana rosak, tampal mana.However, I now have a depressing problem. My wiper is swiping so slow i feel it takes eternity to complete 1 circle. The supposed fastest stroke is like the second slowest stroke when it was good. I changed the wiper motor in Dec 2014 so pretty sure should not be the wiper motor problem. Another thing i suspected is the wiring of the car somehow goes haywire. This is because my radio also go haywire after the accident. It plays songs from USB well, but when i switch on my radio, it acts like it is constantly auto-restarted Is there any ways i can DIY check it first before sending to the mechanic? Anyone has totally redone their car wiring before? Want to ask about the price and the time for doing that. |

QUOTE(Albert B @ Mar 5 2015, 08:48 PM) From my experience with changing absorber of previous car (also with trailing arms but no ARB), in addition to the jack for removing the wheel, the arm need to be supported by a second jack, or by using bricks or a block of wood. Otherwise the spring will drop off when you remove the absorber. The 1st jack or 2nd jack need to be adjusted to compress the spring to the correct height to fit the absorber mounting bolt holes accurately, especially gas-filled absorber is difficult to compress by hand. So maybe the ARB is not affected in this case. You are having additional ARB to the original factory fitted one? Where is it attached to, does it affect the absorber? All Saga/Iswara/Fiore came with standard anti roll bar attached between the sway arm. Not necessarily to detach stock ARB to change damper/spring. I believe what others mean is whether they need to detach their ULARCACING ARB.I remember the main problem for DIY is the absorber mounting nut cannot be loosened especially with the rust & dirt, need to use air operated impact wrench. |

QUOTE(Tripod @ Mar 6 2015, 10:20 AM) guys...need some help on my LMST (2008) There aren't any repairer other than yourself. Please use epoxy glue and bind it before it's totally cracked. Transparent leather polish is good, but don't apply too much. If need be, dilute it with a little bit of water and gently wipe it through. 1 thing good about leather polish is, they're very little synthetic ingredient in these polish. Can literally prolong synthetic rubber/skin/plastic surface and keep them moist for a long² time.just notice my dashboard got crack in the centre. i think its a matter of time before it really break into 2. anywhere i can repair or change the dashboard? prefer to replace with the same LMST version dashboard. got anywhere to recommend.. ![]() This my baby, which currently kidnapped by my aunt |

QUOTE(Tripod @ Mar 7 2015, 11:35 AM) thanks albertb for the link. The best effect for dashbaord bond is dismantle it, then apply epoxy resin from the INSIDE of the crack. This way you wouldn't have to deal with those bits and lumps on the dashbaord surface after being patched. Once applied, make sure you apply enough support for the dashbaord, incase if the plastic change shape then it spoil all your work. Reason for using epoxy resin is due to the material can stand high heat. If you have the time, after you've applied epoxy to the cracked site, put an extra plastic plate onto of the epoxy as an extra support and glue the surrounding of that piece of patching plastics. That whole area will become a full reinforcement and guaranteed will not crack again.also appreciate your tips...davidke20 thought just change the dashboard if cheap. but now looks like have to diy those epoxy glue really good? can really hold those cracks together? btw your dashboard looks well kept ![]() After enough experience with this, consistently applying tyre shine/silicone base polisher, the entire dashboard had turned into POWDER! *My point is, tyre shine is for tyre! Not your bloody dashboard!!! ![]() This post has been edited by davidke20: Mar 7 2015, 12:03 PM |

QUOTE(cyanboy @ Mar 8 2015, 11:16 AM) My second iswara LMST has just changed absorber. APM biasa mia. Changing steps seemed to be simple as above instructions. No necessarily to remove the UlarCacing ARB for damper replacement. Regardless, magician will have to double jack 1 side(1 is to jack the sway arm to compress the spring, another is to lift the car up) of the car before removing the damper then finally the spring. Hence, with or without the UlarCacing ARB, the way to do remains the same.KYB bit expensive? But I guess is KYB standard right? Yeap ada Ular Cacing Arb kat saya mia Iswara. Tak tau scare workshop broke my welding bracket nia.. Absorber was due long ago tapi takut tax nanti le... As for your worry, if jacking up the car 1 side would rendered the break of welding bracket...I can't imagine how you went through a 90 degeee sharp turn 60kph corner at Sg.Besi interchange Mahameru Heh?

QUOTE(Albert B @ Mar 9 2015, 10:42 PM) The dep. minister's statement about the cause of accidents and cheapness of the device etc is out-of-touch with the real world situation. It will go the way of the 3 blinking speed indicator lights fixed on top of heavy vehicles many many years back. Who me? I not too worry, cause my usual speed is 90kph. Highway 90, trunk road 90, corner 90, firelane 90, parking also 90 And if implemented will mean every vehicle owner have to fork out money to some govt. approved agency to instal... And besides the measures you mentioned, JPJ should go undercover and catch those reckless drivers on the road. Those dangerous drivers can cause serious damage even at less than half the 110 km/hr speed, and should face very heavy penalties... |

QUOTE(zedyll @ Mar 15 2015, 08:11 PM) Brief report about cap ayam extractors to low yat 82 jedi_master and all sifus & members here! Very pretty. Later karat liao bkam lidis Today I changed my stock manifold to 4-2-1 extractor with flexible pipe 'nenas' with damage of RM230...But its an ordinary steel material not the stainless steel one. The brand is ALCRO. I thought it was Wegow. The shop owner said wegow already slow down in business, perhaps bankrupt already. I dunno. But the bends are still quite decent, the extractor itself is solid and thick steel. Compared to other shop's brandless cap ayam extractor that i surveyed the other day.....RM 150 without flexible pipe aka nenas but lightweight..... knocking the body sounds like tin milo ( i exaggerated a bit ) but you know the idea. The extractor pic: ![]() Before the welding.....the stock pipe is much smaller. Upgrade to 1.7" later? ![]() After installation: ![]() Comments: Pickup noticeably lighter. Driving with 3 passengers now feels like driving alone when still using stock manifold. Now my right foot feels heavy. Before buy a budget cap ayam extractor....check the thickness of metals, the pipe bends decent or not. Cap ayam mods is just pure luck, i would say. If got money, as all sifus said....recommended to go for reputable manufacturer. Sure won't regret. ![]() |

QUOTE(zedyll @ Mar 17 2015, 07:26 AM) Thanks bro! Solenoid kong will judder EVERYTIME u switch off the engine. It's likely to be overflow IMO. Before jumping into "tuning" your carb, it's advisable to give it a carb cleaning process. I solved mine with a bottle of electronic contact cleaner. I know there are specific carb cleaner spray out there, but I had bad experience with the carb cleaner spray which I wouldn't like to share it publicly, hence Alcohol base solution is my next best bet. The usual spray and vacuumize of throttlebody several rounds at high revs. Once done, change sparkplugs. Ever since, never happen to me anymore My current rusted muffler got holes....added 1 big hole i accidentally poked during extractor upgrades. now sound like cheap straight flow oredi. haha.... I have 1 minor issue which is stalling/jerking 1-2 seconds after ignition off. Sometimes it occurs, sometimes not. After reading through previous owners experiences, it's between rich mixture or solenoid kong. So...wanna try carb tune first. The back of carb is the air mixture right? Is it turning clockwise or anticlockwise for leaner mixture? Due to sometimes occur only, do you think the solenoid kong or not? On the worst case scenario, it could be the solenoid START to kong, where the shaft weren't able to extend fully when engine's off. Which you have a very good chance in reviving it with electronic contact cleaner spray. It could be stains on the shaft that prevent it from thrusting but that's all. Tuning carburetor is the last thing I do, and I only trust CO reading where I need to send my car to a magician who has a machine/dyno machine to do so. My carb tuning never been kacauing me other than, overhaul job, change from 4toto back to stock - whilst other surroundings been upgraded such as valve springs, lifts, and also weird setup of exhaust system |

QUOTE(jedi_master @ Mar 17 2015, 04:31 PM) Looks very much like this 1, dun have trumpet, but got adapter came together to fit external air filter.![]() By the name of SOLEX, seldom heard of it. According to previous owner, was detached from motorcycle. Originally came with an adapter for 4AGE, so my magician sent the 4toto to machine shop, bring along a stock intake manifold from chop shop and had it fabricate a special adapter for my 4G13. Reason for downgrading? Partly due to waifu make noise, fuel price hike if you remember there was 1 point fuel price raised up to 2.70 where nobody can tahan. Call me an idiot, sold the whole set for RM400 which that point of time really have no intention to pursue on performance anymore. |

QUOTE(zedyll @ Mar 18 2015, 02:05 AM) Thanks bro for the advice! Let's go dyno Story before dieseling occurs..... First, i went for carb tuning (no machine aka manual After carb tuning, used the car about a week with good FC. But 1 problem emerges....pinging sound when accelerate. I went to my mechanics to tune ignition timing with timing light. The pinging almost gone except when climbing hills with with a slight pinging. My mech said slight pinging knock is okay. No dieseling problem yet. Then, i went DIY changing the o-ring of distributor since there's quite of oil leaks. The distributor position was marked with correction pen. After finished replacing o-ring, i turned the distributor slightly 1-2mm anticlockwise (from marked position) therefore retarding timing some more. No more pinging even at hills. Then, the dieseling started occuring occasionally. |

QUOTE(jedi_master @ Mar 18 2015, 08:45 AM) Ooo.. nice. I also retired from 4 toto last year but mine was silvertop setup with trumpets. It was quite fun I guess especially beyond 5000 rpm but in the end still went back to single throttle body. Frankly, the 4toto experience was all about responses. And yeah, especially after 5krpm. The trouble is, my 4G13 ran out of breathe at about 6.5krpm. Despite having enough fuel after tuned up the carbs, it can still tarek all the way beyond 8krpm, I don't feel the sprint anymore. Do you get the idea of from 1k ~ 4krpm tarak VTEK, after 5K rpm it goes very smooth and back stickingly fast. But after 6.5k rpm, the backsticking feel gone How old are your plugs? If its due or nearly due for change, maybe just change them. Might be a quick fix, nothing to lose. The good thing that I realized after switched back to stock pistoned carbs, it isn't going much slower then when I was 4toto. My tuning was set to the lean side according to the external CO sensor. With slightly retarded ignition, the entire powerband has been switched over to low/mid end. However, the valvelifts has been further released. I wasn't sure why magician set it up that way, but was told due to lean setup and early torque band, the loosen valvelifts will help to sustain inertia during cruising. True enough, the setup gave me a consistent of 13km/l on a regular basis despite the horrible KL traffics. On straight hiway drive back and fro JB will easily yield me 18km/l and above. It feels like this This post has been edited by davidke20: Mar 18 2015, 10:24 AM |

QUOTE(zero5177 @ Mar 18 2015, 10:52 AM) I think mayb the mech follow the standard tuning for this engine when he last tuned for me... because the standard tuning I think it was for RON97 because last time don't have RON95 yet? Should I tune this on my own? need any special tools? or is there any reliable tuner in Klang valley... p/s: The troll aside, most if not all magician also tune base on RPM/and engine vibration. And ofcourse, use timing light to gauge on ignition timing nia. Otherwise, it is safe to follow the given DIY tuning. Magician is also human, can't tell which is the right setup without CO reading This post has been edited by davidke20: Mar 18 2015, 04:44 PM |
