QUOTE(maddeneye @ Feb 9 2008, 04:45 PM) Hi guys, joining the club with TB/HL. Saw quite a few persona on the highway during CNY balik kampung south. I find at 120-130kph car a little floating - have to keep maintaining a straight line. Otherwise OK. Oh one time the door locks suddenly unlock - donno why. floating?... betul ke?... i feel at 180 also its still ok... believe me.. i used to drive a kancil.. so i know the meaning of FLOATING reallll welll... |

QUOTE(maddeneye @ Feb 9 2008, 09:34 PM) My previous car is an aeroback and I have gone 120-130 with it but always feel the car is going where I want it to go and staying there. For persona, as i said, I seem to keep adjusting the steering. Nothing major though. Maybe alignment slightly off... donno lah. Maybe not used to power steering. Don't seem to have much free play. Will wait till first 1000km service. ohh could be the road uneven also... got alot of factors la.. tapi persona is a pretty heavy car la so 120-130 should not have floating problem la, so i was surprised when i read yr post.. handling pun supposedly by the one and only lotus mamak restaurant hahaha |

QUOTE(Ultima @ Feb 9 2008, 11:22 PM) persona suspension is soft as it was intended for family use... yeah lo... alot of highway in malaysia very uneven... the best example is the KLIA highway my god.. like a merry-go-round la go up down up down haha..try speeding at straight n smooth road n mebbe u dun feel the floating... the uneven road or bouncy hi way can make the car feels floating... bouncy highway like that i rather the car be floating than be bouncing with hard suspension haha..

QUOTE(john_jenin @ Feb 10 2008, 02:45 PM) If u want syiok like audio CD just set the bitrate higher like 192kbps when ripping of from CD or make sure the mp3 files downloaded/copied bitrate is around that...the higher the better... 320 la bro   Added on February 10, 2008, 2:57 pm QUOTE(ralf @ Feb 10 2008, 02:54 PM) The "floating" feel has something to do with the suspension damping, higher profile tyre and taller ride height. eh what you do with yr car la? hand-brake turn all sudah buat lol.... next what.. barrel roll? hahaha Persona ride & handling is well balanced between comfort and sporty driving. BUT don't be fooled by the "Floating" feel...because this car can handle slow-mid speed sharp turn very well. If you are going to fast, slight understeer occur, listen to the tyre streching noise...   Handbraking 180 turn is easy, go at 60km/h, lock the e-brake, see the car slide.....but because of the heavier body, need little bit more speed to "skid"....now my front tyre sidewall got some cut after stunt driving.

QUOTE(john_jenin @ Feb 11 2008, 09:03 AM) Oh ya ka..so that mean 320 equals to audio cd quality? sorry my mistake... no bro i dunno whats the equivalent bitrate for mp3s to have audio cd quality la... but u mentioned 192.. so i just said 320 la.. its the best kan... although if im not mistaken now there is 400 something bitrate pun la..Added on February 11, 2008, 9:07 am Have u checked tire pressure...? Maybe tire pressure too high? just in case...BTW i never felt that kind of roughness at 100km/j or at another speed..thank god Added on February 11, 2008, 6:20 pm QUOTE(Ultima @ Feb 11 2008, 11:29 AM) the car can handle good when cornering... agree with u on that.. but i also feel its abit 'tail happy' as tiff nedel says it.. he doesnt say that about the persona la.. but when a car's rear likes to slide out tiff says its tail happy... why i say this is.. i've nvr let the rear slide out la in my persona (although ralf has last nite play2 with toyota, as u know the car is sux at low torque, so i hav a hard time take the car on straight road... so when cornering doing 120, try to overtake him, but tht idiot blocked my car dun giv way, mahai... but i do feel tyre screeching during tht time, but who cares, im alive now i tell u, persona is very good at cornering )but during fast cornering you can feel the back like... slowly giving way you know on the verges of sliding.. i think its cos back heavy maybe... just what i feel.. what about you guys?..
