my insuflex n tar sheets cover everywhere and more (except in the front fender cavity)
so can say mine vibramat compatible d lor
kekeke

these things are dampers
they dont deflect or reflect sound...
they absorb the vibrations caused by the cars operation thus reducing the intensity of the sound waves produced by that vibration

Added on November 17, 2007, 12:10 amdude...they are one and the same
they DAMPEN the vibrations...
...NOT absorb or block or isolate or reflect or deflect or anything of the sort...

bitumen does it by virtue of its inertia which is caused by its relatively high density
insuflex does it by its spongy and rubbery texture

bitumen would probably be better at dampening vibrations
but insuflex would be a better all rounder as it can dampen vibration reasonably well and also act as a heat insulator

u have to remove the spring clip holding the handle in
by right, no need,...can just pry it off and it should pop off
but the new ones still tight
so use sumthing small
light a testpen or sumthing
look sideways at the door (so you can see between the door panel and the handle)
look for the spring clip opening
and use the testpen or wutever to slowly push it off
once that pops off, you can take off the handle easily
and the rest is a piece of cake

u have to take out the A, B and C pillar covers 1st
to remove the B pillar covers u need to unbolt the seat belt anchor points
then you unscrew the handles
and then take out the upper plastic lining
then take out those round push in clips at the back
and also you have to take off the sunshades and the read view mirror
and also take off the middle roof light
once all these are off, the roof cover should be able to come down

regarding they back handles, i know....its really a stupid thing to do to remove them
but i forgot to check if there are bolt on points under the cover
if you do take out the cover, do let us know if there are points

regarding that ventilator thinggy, what does it look like?....any pics for it?
they only telling what it does (which is like ....sooooo obvious.... )
want to see what the actual product looks like to warrant such a hefty price tag

sighz...ok...whatever floats your boat dude....

ooo...it controls the aircond rotary blower izit....but then where does the air go?
does it just recirculate in the car?

umm....i have the haynes book
dun think it tells how to remove the roof n all...atleast i dont recall seing it
i usually use it for servicing the technical parts of the car
others all use logic je

A pillar is the one at the windscreen
B pillar is the one in the middle of the 2 doors
C pillar is the one at the back glass

for carbie engines no use install turbo timer all
u'll be paying for so many functions which you cant use
waste of money wor
not to mention the more complex something becomes the higher the probability that it will fail as there are more parts
for cabie the best your can go afaik is vacuum gauge lor

hahaha
yeap
thats it

still waiting to arrive
hehe
dun worry
i will post on my mod thread once installed

yup yup
will do bro
prob is my car is currently in west malaysia
hvnt ship over yet
so even if it reach now still have to wait for car to arrive here
then oni can fix n test
hope can get it shipped here by early december

what will the timer control?...

not that much diff actually
can sit comfortably in it (my height is 6 feet)
savvy is wayyyyyyyy more stable than iswara at high speed (e.g. 170 savvy still ok...i dont even 1 2 talk about iswara at that speed )

the onli thing in the iswara's favor is its price tag and its boot space
other than that from performance, stability, safety and fuel efficiency aspect, the savvy wins hands down

what are the 3 features?

its more stable coz of the chasis and suspension tuning...they really got it spot on
iswara can go 160...the stabilizer bars n new shocks will improve the stability...but above 130/140 can feel it start to 'float' d
the savvy still feels solid on the ground

ooo
urs is efi version izit....
ala...must tell lar
we all carbie je
all wondering how can sense O2 n all
hahaha

Added on November 18, 2007, 11:08 pmnot that much lar...

rm600 is from taiwan
rm900 is from japan
they are both recon

but definitely get the jap wan
the ones coming from taiwan not as good
i looked at the two
couldnt really tell the diff by just looking at them

wah....every1 oso diy sound proofing d
bagus bagus
now our milo tins wont be milo tins anymore

aik
tot afr is usually from the ECU and the O2 reading is from the emmissions sensor in the exhaust
usually only EFI have it

but if can do for carbie cars,...would love to know

keep us updated what your friend says k

wah
so fast ar?
send back warranty lar
8months is rediculous!

take photo and publish it in the papers
then say that proton duwan to do anything about it
c what the media has to say about the crappy quality

how does it detect from ciggie socket?

Added on November 19, 2007, 5:32 pmnope
thats how engines are made
their total displacement is always just a teeny bit below the number which they round up to

Added on November 19, 2007, 5:34 pmsighz...this is y i mentioned before that the normal tar strips used for roofing not good for car
they soften too much in the heat...sometimes until can fall off oso
thats y should use the proper bitumen sheets
