Mai SS2 opis carik aku. Aku kasi 2 kotak sama lu makan sampei cirit

OEM taiwan RM90
Ori Plotong APM RM130

PER PIECE

U wanna guess where the disc came from? Mai yau hai use the RM90 taiwan disc poke hole grind line nia

He said clutch pedal become very light, feels like no tension, it's a clear sign of clutch cover tensioner leaf either broken or weaken


Later he added, despite hitting the clutch pedal to the bottom also very hard to engage/free gear, again it's a clear sign of clutch pad balancing spring detached/loose tension


Has nothing to do with gear oil. In order to spoil the clutch cover prematurely, it could happened if the driver subconciously put the left foot rest on the gas pedal very often, hence clutch bearing all time semi disengaging clutch cover, as a result the tensioner leaf(the daisy alike at the middle of the clutch cover) become loose. As for the balancing spring(use to balance the clutch disc to prevent vibration when semi disengage clutch), it can break anytime, talk about built quility and luck.

p/s: as far as I know, there's limited "performance" clutch kit for FLX due to - NOT COMMONLY use on other make/model of vehicle. BLM/FL can use NISMO as it compatible with most NISSAN transmission, aftermarket clutch kit range from cheap and cheerful to expansive performance kit are widely available. For BLM1.6 MT(taxi spec) and or PERSONA can use Mitsubishi/RALLYART compatible because they're using Mitsubishi transmission.

OEM Taiwan Regardless what they call it, you know how those fuckers make money by giving different packaging and call it a different name(have seen BREMBO DISC made for GaGa stock size and only selling for RM200?! WADAFAAAAARK). As long u get the cheapest, without packaging, but as long can fit, that is sufficient. You wouldn't know if those bugger put a Taiwan disc into a Plotong packaging and sell you as genuine, unless you send your car back to SC and get SC to do your repair(which likely they're going to put you into a 3 months waiting list for parts ordering and arrival, which you pray hard and hopefully those parts are not Taiwan disc inserted into Plotong packaging)

Used to have SAGA for RM150, but seems out of stock. Upon confrontation, the supplier(not this 1 from Mudah, I had it with the 1 in Jalan Ipoh) said it is REAL BREMBO, authorized by the principal to OEM local product. That however, BREMBO said they did not authorize any local agent to use their brand and or to allowed production locally. Even if they do, they'll send in their specialist and make a proper design, just to be sure the quality of their product meets their standard, in order to protect their branding for many coming years.

You do the math lar. DC2 Integra BREMBO disc is about RM3000, I can't brain how SAGA can have a special price of RM200.

Detachable the rear wheel bearing, just like the front

FLX



BLM/FL

Yes and no.

BLM/FL the spindle is separated from the bearing. It has the advantage of bearing replacement and cost effective for consumer. However, when bearing is not hard fixed into the spindle, chances are each time the bearing damaged, debris will be grinding through the spindle and make the shaft vulnerable over a long period(until bearing being replaced).

FLX(after 2nd batch), the spindle is 1 piece with the bearing built in. No your can't change the bearing only, must change the spindle together. Since the bearing is fixed inside the spindle, it doesn't get damage as often. You often heard BLM/FL/Savvy rear wheel bearing damaged very quickly, whilst never heard of their front bearing got problem. This is because, FLX is now using the similar type of bearing built in spindle. Disadvantage is, since the bearing is built in, if bearing damaged the whole piece of spindle will have to be replaced. Usually the costing is 2~3x of BLM/FL bearings.

No say better or no better. Having the newer FLX with the 1 piece bearing, you get less headache. The barang also tahan lama compare to the old type. But ofcourse, the trade off is more expansive compare to old model. The bright side of having the 1 piece bearing is, you save up time going to workshop change bearing every once in awhile. Not only the 1 piece bearing cost 2~3 times more than the normal bearing, it last 3~5 times longer than the normal bearing as well. So, you choose lar

paiseh to the max

Korek. That is unless you like to visit magician, pay him marnee every once in awhile, the old type is gooding. Coz each time jiu go only pay like RM100 then get a new bearing liao. Whereas if the new type, you only get to visit magician in 5~6 years time, but jiu pay some 300~400 lar

Basically, the pad you choose decides how long the disc will last. Please use BOSCH OEM pads or standard original Plotong pads if you want a long live disc rotor. On the side note, avoid hard driving before sending the car for car wash. If you must, stay behind another 2~3 cars when you reach the car wash, wait until your brakes cool down before rolling in. Everytime gone through flash floods, remember to go home wait until the car cools down, splash water into the brakes and wash away all floating debris/dust/sand/stones that stuck between your brake pads. May not be 100% foolproof, but my longest serviced brake rotor lasted me 4 times skinning in 200,000km, until I sell car and the new owner is still using it

Only applicable to the back. Our front bearings are totally the same, which is the expansive type

Front passenger side will hit banana leaf, rear driver side will sagat when full load. Don't ask me why, this is how it happened to most if not all 195/55R15 fellas.

U go plonk BLM front damper and rear spring lar. Sure sampan like rollsroyce liao

Daun pisang is made of fibre, it will not(or do very little) harm to your tayar. More likely your tayar will grind a chunk away from your daun From 50 to 55 will have SOME improvement in terms of comfortability. If you surely wanting the better comfortness, you'll probably need to downsize to 14" and choose the 60 series instead.

Like we all know, public general consensus of wide tayar = handling, may not be the whole truth. Performance tayar pun ada yg kecik punya



185/60R13 yo. Welcome those 195/50R15 to challenge me

Plotong is selling 70++, whereas outside sepepatchop selling 100++, wouldn't know what to recommend you.

It's not what special advise. I ask u go SC simply because other supplier(sepepatchop) doesn't carry FLX MT's transmission wear & tear replacement part. So, whatever stuff your magician asked for spepatchop will be marked up by the shop bcoz they also have to get it from Plotong On the other hand, how many Pork model you've seen is MT setup in Marehsia? Literally NONE! Ok, may be a few, but am sure the volume doesn't trigger spepatchop to import such item.

It is common sense. The people that I have never heard complaining about their clutch is always Taxi BLM and Persona bcoz of the Mitshi tranny
