Hey guys,

I have a few questions to ask on ZC21S:

1) Does it have Electronic Power Steering?

2) It's 1.5L engine. Is it normal for the gear change (auto) to feel so relax instead of aggressive? by relax i mean the acceleration power is slow to react as compared to myvi

3) will installing turbo help for above (2) issue? is it advisable on this auto tranny? can the stock auto tranny withstand the torque?

thanks blush.gif smile.gif

1) Yes EPS

2) For me, it feels aggressive, especially if two gears down. Its relaxed if it shifts one gear down. This is about how the downshifts feel. Acceleration, because I pump 97, feels decently strong, though not sure when it compares to a myvi

3) stock engine should be strong enough, though the gearbox may be the limitation. Then again, subject to how much boost you want to run.

i see...so need to downshift to 2 and L? I usually only downshift to 3, even then it's acceleration is not aggressive. For myvi i just put the "OD" button in D and have confidence in overtaking sweat.gif

but this car is very stable in high speed, which i like. plus, for a 10 years old car, there are no rattling and noises rclxm9.gif
unlike my Preve...after only two years got rattling sound here and there. went to SC also not solved doh.gif

thanks thumbsup.gif

btw, i am running the Swift with 205/45/16 Hankook Ventus V2 Concept, superb grip and handling in wet and dry. recommended to you guys. cheap at RM 223.20/piece

how much is the standard price for ZC21S absorber? brought to SC and they said it needs change. personally i feel it's a little bit of stiff, but still comfortable, still corners great. doesn't feel like it needs changing at all hmm.gif

From my experience, no need. Just full throttle all the way. You may want to play gears when driving uphill brows.gif

I've got some minor rattling sleep.gif

Very happy with my Bridgestone RE003 icon_idea.gif

Front Tokiko absorbers - RM190 each
Front Kayaba absorbers - RM280 each
Rear Kayaba absorbers - RM150 each

If you beli original absobers at Suzuki..

Front RM495 per side

i heard a not so good review on Kayaba. How's Tokiko working for you? can get it at your friend's shop XD-Auto? unsure.gif

maybe something is wrong with my ZC21S then. full throttle press sampai lantai, the acceleration is still in "relaxed" mode instead of aggressive. I'm not confident overtaking cars like this.

mine is a second hand bought from used car.

any otai able to check? unsure.gif
