cannot drift but can power slide... for those car idiot, when a wira slide, they call drift but it is called powerslides

my favourite car... NA 1.3L rotary engine... stock wan also can tapao ppl lor

clutch kick drift? possible or not? unless u pull handbrake lar...
dont ended up causing accident on the road
*
haha cause last time i can do clutch kick with my old toyota corolla, but is stolen last year.
our normal handbrake using drum brake cant do much i guess...hehe
wira i down shift the gear kuat kuat can smell the clutch plate.

QUOTE(shinjite @ Sep 26 2007, 11:27 PM)
RX8 engine is good but lack of torque only...weakness of rotary, get the 13B is better since its turbocharged
*
ei....isnt it RX8 horsepower is lower than RX7?? btw...RX7 looks more sporty than RX8.
although the engine is 1.3, but the fuel comsumption is much more than our conventional inline piston engine because every stroke the rotary engine also consumes fuel.

This morning, i have to send my lil bro to school. Got this myvi blocking parking lot with pulled handbrake vmad.gif

I have this sound all the time. Sounds like all the electronics starting up or somethin. Some new cars have them. I just wait till the sound goes off...takes no longer than 2 seconds...then start the car. smile.gif
*
Is the fuel pump sound for EFI car. Is just before u start your engine, it pumps up the fuel 1st because it needs pressure to inject the fuel into the combustion chamber. This sound is normal and is depends on the fuel pump. Some car is louder some is not.

QUOTE(lee831219 @ Sep 27 2007, 09:27 AM)
the electronic sound. normally when u rev den u can hear from ur speaker...
*
When rev can hear the sound from speaker is from the high tension (HT) for our spark plug. There should be a capacitor connected somewhere from the distributer there and ground to the car body.

All of those "aeroplane sound" is caused by bad grounding. Normally when we rev the engine up and down, the whining sound follows as well because is our alternator generating voltage.
So to prevent this from happen, we can do our own grounding for the alternator with wire to the body. Although the alternator is already mounted to the body, but sometimes the manufacturer bolts that hold the alternator is not that good at grounding.
For some car audio that installed additional amplifier or equalizer, all these component should have a common wire that ground all of them to a same point at the body to prevent "ground looping" that may also causes whining sound.

You grounded your alternator, and player? Are you having any amplifier?
Maybe can try to change your RCA cable to a unshieled twisted pair type if you are connecting your audio device with that.
A noise supressor capacitor also can be installed and ground it to the body.

ya, i use the rough 8awg for grounding both player n alternator biggrin.gif
btw, what do u mean by unshielded twisted pair type? haha, noob here..
*
yaya UTP wire for the audio input output cable maybe help to remove that sound.
u may also try ask at some audio accessories shop for help. maybe they can install a noise supressor capacitor or ground loop isolator to remove that whining sound.

QUOTE(stormyz @ Sep 27 2007, 11:49 PM)
cannot be wo.. coz if i turn off and start back without waiting awhile the light is still there...
*
that light from our Proton User Manual said is the ECU sense something wrong or not normal. Normally is caused by faulty or dirty sensors such as the oxygen senser near the throtle body. When driving do your car stall down?

QUOTE(Azuma-kun @ Sep 28 2007, 01:34 AM)
Guys, how much normally to change clutch? Gonna do it this saturday.
*
For normal exedy clutch, i change at RM320 including all plus gear oil change.

today i went to mechanic.. put my car there for 7 hours..he say will check for me coz need to use computer.. so i show him the light is on after i drive around as a proof i'm not lying... then i went back home and went and took my car at 6 pm.. he can't c where's the problem as he say the light did not light up. then i drove the car back to my house.. and the light is there again.. so sien...  my car didn't stall down.. i still can drive normal at short distance but i dun dare drive long distance. i just stop awhile when the light is on.. i just need a gud repair shop now...
*
haih...if they use computer to check, when connected to the ECU there should be an error code list save inside that can let us know the problem why it lights up the engine yellow light mah. I think the mechanic didnt check your car lar.
btw, how long your car ECU didnt reset already? Sometimes problem like this can be solves after a reset. Just pull off your battery +ve and wait for 30sec to 1min like that then put back in place.

how fast can you drive through flood wor. Last time I drove through the 'sea' also I went 1st gear all the way coz scare later my brakes wet and cannot stop. That should be your first worry...

CAI hose if you fit it vertically, water wouldn't easily go in. Don't make it easy for water to enter then it should be safe.
*
water cant enter but if CAI install too low the water block air from goin in then engine no air also die.

hmm...good point. So how to prevent this?
*
hmm....there is a thing called "Bypass Valve" which is install at the hose before going in throtle body. It blocks water from sucking in and bypass air to go in only as u know water is heavier than air.
But i am not sure about that item price or anything...as i am not using CAI at the moment.

hey, not sure if you guys can help me or not. My car seems to have uneven braking. Twice already...I brake (not so) hard and only the left front tyre locked. The tyres are only 1 year old and got plenty of thread. Is there something I can do so that it doesn't lock again?
*
check the brake pad of both sides in front 1st. because sometimes chapalang brake pad they can jam at the housing. make sure the brake pads can move sideway in and out at the house when the brake caliper is loosen. sometimes application of rubber grease at the edge of the brake pads might be good.
then check if there is any leakage from the brake piston rubber seal. if there is leakage then u can also go buy the piston seal and replace it yourself then purge the air out.

I read from somewhere that spacer increase the underhood temperature
*
so weird.... i thought the spacer will let air goes in straight from the front the flow out with hot air. like my pic here...

Attached Image

the think i can explain from the honda link is when there is no bonnet spacer, the air from front can go in then rush through the engine area long enough all without flowing out directly at the space there. So the temp is much lower

QUOTE(lee831219 @ Oct 2 2007, 09:47 PM)
but the article is talk about Honda wor... does it apply to all car?
*
i think it depends on car lor, cause all car the air also flow differently mah. rolleyes.gif
