you start with a tone saying dumb lah what lah..if wanna say something useful just say it no need twist and turn..you could have give your opinion and why its so hard

i dont mind have conversation with anyone over the internet even i dont know you..talk a little also like wanna argue so damn hard

anyway have a good day

that's my opinion, it's dumb and dumber when you are asking others to prove what you yourself claimed

at first i was so speechless on how someone can claim something like that while bragging it's true because he owned kancil, picanto and, like other people never owns any or multiple old cars before like wut. I guess when I was driving my 35 years old 4AGE corolla thr power escaped so much it can only runs below 90km/h (oh sorry i did managed to get the almost the same topspeed as when it was new), other people on the internet can get the same power too so since internet said so it must be true for everyone else (echo chamber confirmation bias at play here)

thats not a opinion, its just you wanna jibe on others just like most here

whatever makes you happy my friend as long make you feel big

moving along

asking you to show what you claimed as "power escape" is "makes me feel big"

okie

you get alot of potential to be a politician with those taichi skills bro

also i edited my last post, go read it back

so much fun in this forum you can claim anything you want, if somebody questions you, just claim they are doing it because it makes them feel big without answering their question on your claimed statement, topkek

page 5 already got ppl arguing haih...

sunday ppl, it is sunday wei

lunch mau makan apa?

buy ev once got nuclear powered battery la.. 10 years no need to charge..

I had some rechargeable lead acid batteries. Lasted for only 2 years tops.

I salute you for being an early adopter

asking simple things only, what does he meant by power escape by criteria and can he show it, but he dunwan to answer what he claims wut

one can opt to walk away

sunday lah. have fun a bit

sure if it was topics about other field, but engines are my my chosen fyp project in engineering so i gets irked too much when there are some bullshitting on it.

ok carry on with your mission

you say confirmation bias..but in f1 or racing in general wear out engine slower lap times and failing

F1 engine still its a engine just like in your car..uses the same fuel do the same thing the same rule apply which is wear and tear just a in F1 it wear a thousand times faster but a F1 engine is very specialized and they lose power so what to a road car engine driving over the years..can the engine in your car still fresh after years of using?

f1 engines aren't the same as normal car engines bro, even the tolerance is totally different. parts in f1 engine are so tight it needed to be warmed up by a heater before it can be started. normal car engines don't have tolerances as that, and the materials used is not the same grade too

of course i'm taking about confirmation bias, there's people testing their 10-20 yers old car on dyno which has the same hp as the car when it's new (manufacturer claimed), there's also old ferraris engine tested on dyno tested to lose like half the power. so which conclusion is correct? are you going to take the ferrari's case and claim that as power escape? that's what we refer to confirmation bias

so that's also why i asked you, how do you quantify as power escapr since you claimed that you feel it on your kancil, picanto and jazz? can you answer me now?

like i say still a engine that it cant escape from wear and tear no matter what or how they are made of

the kancil is probably the best example, 225K KM still on ori gearbox and engine..chnage oil every 5K km change gearbox oil every 40K km..even step on loud pedal it makes so much noise but going from 20 to 50km/h takes a little more time these days..20 to 50km/h its very quick back in the days..its even amazing back then driving in city/town with that pickup speed..so what now? my leg gone soft? from 1999 till now the kancil is still as good as it use to be while im the one wearing out? or like you say im just bias its just in head car is slower lol

but a car so old claim it doesnt loses some horsie i dont believe it

cause power loss on aged engine is such a significantly small issue in the real world for 99.99% of the people. I haven't seen any of my friend send their mitsu evos, 350z, silvias etc for engine rebuild yet because it's such an insignificant issue for well designed engines. My 35 years old 4AGE still have good acceleration.

kancil runs on carb, you probably should check your carb and your engine probably need teppet adjustments. newer cars barely have noticeable power loss issues anymore, my 20 years old kelisa which runs on fuel.injection don't have any issues on power. I just recently changed all oil seals and gaskets last year or two ago and opened the engine head, no issues on the cylinder wall and piston rings, still runs great with power to date.

what about your picanto and jazz?

you are a car enthusiast is very different from the rest of us lah..even i like cars alot but im not until like you go drop engine and rebuild

you do a more rigorous maintenance compare to average car owner any car will run better

jazz my sis the one complain say potong car very slow nowadays..i say to her probably just she dont know build momentum lol but just coming to 11 years old 100K KM+ only

picanto still got warranty until this may..but not refer to this lah..you wanna buy ah? genuine low mileage car zero accident

that's the thing, they never never send their engines to rebuild yet. my 4age didn't even open the engine for the past 20 years. i tried 0-100 and the time is not far off than factory spec, maybe less than a second longer

my 2003 vios 240k km don't have power issues too, maybe slightly lesser power than when it was new but not to the point i'm annoyed on day to day drive, it's still runs with good power. honestly i can't really feel that it has even lost that much power. the power is still relatively almost the same

to know power lose just from wear and tear of cylinder/piston/valve train, do the compression test (new VS now).

no need to talk until the moon is falling.
