Acctually......microcompressor just increase the air to ur engine. Initially u will feel lighter engine and more responsive. But later ECU will readjust the Air Fuel ratio to stock condition. So ur microcompressor is totally useless.

if I wanna change the suspension in order to get better cornering..how much it would cost me?i mean i change the stock suspension ..

Your question is too general. Do some research first.

General answer for u

if u on simply setup
1) change spring roughly less than RM1000
2) Sport absorber less than RM1000

Sightly advance setup
1) Rim & Tyre roughly RM 1500++ for 15", RM2000++ for 16" , around rm2500+ for 17"
2) change spring roughly less than RM1000
3) Sport absorber less than RM1000

Advance setup
1) Rim & Tyre roughly RM 1500++ for 15", RM2000++ for 16" , around rm2500+ for 17"
2) Adjustable but height only RM2500 below

Gila setup
1) Rim & Tyre roughly RM 1500++ for 15", RM2000++ for 16" , around rm2500+ for 17"
2) Fully Adjustable or customized adjustable

ok or not???

what u had been claim? The warranty for engine still valid? do u really find it out?

[/quote]

Haha.....just an advice for u...if u so scare then use P2 stuff.....then u got no worry lo. Even those P2 mechanic ask me to use my own spark plug. Then u think will void or not. Again warranty claim is depend how well ur relationship with those P2 ppl. I had use aftermarket market brake pad and wrap my disc brake but they allow me claim brake disc not only once but twice.


Added on March 16, 2008, 2:36 am[quote=vin_ann,Mar 15 2008, 07:20 PM]
when u wan to change to iriduim, remember to find out what engin u use lol...
either toyota engin or daihutsu... coz both the spark plug head is different.

take note.

[/quote]

For more specific should be like this........only applicable to Denso iridium

myvi from first batch till 2006 is using IK20

myvi from 2007 till now is using IXU22

Added on March 15, 2008, 11:56 pm

wat u claim so far?? anything 2 do wif de spark plug/engine?? coz from wat i heard if dey found out dat u've changed other spark plug other den de P2 sell wan sure void warranty d oh but from ur case seems like it's not true huh... i oso wanna change 2 iridium spark plug but very worried it might void de warranty dat's y i din do so...

Those kind of sound is hard to catch 1. But need time. Anyway, if u got those mechanic that is very close to u 1, then ask them for help. P2 is hopeless.

Engine k3-ve is a reliable engine. That y i don't really care about the engine warranty. About the warranty of the whole car still there. I claim twice brake disc and caliper, radio, power windows switch. And some of my friend claim even more even though they had put many aftermarket stuff in. Again it is again depend how well ur relationship with P2.

yea... u're rite also... tink de best is 2 check wif P2 ler... the reason y i'm asking here coz i thought it's quite a common prob and thought i can solve it by myself but if it's something complicating den too bad ler... bout the spark plug it's good idea tho but dunno if de P2 mechanics are smart enough 2 find out that u're using different spark plug even when u install bac the ori spark plug (i doubt so coz i dun tink it'll make any difference 2 de engine rite??) tongue.gif


Added on March 16, 2008, 2:24 pm

the thing is dun reli noe any mechanic that's close 2 me wan... got also not to say very close until i can trust everything he say ler that's y i always go bac 2 P2 for service even after my 1st 3 service... if i'm not mistaken the engine warranty is 1 year oni rite or izzit 3 years??
*
P2 Mechanic won't know u had change spark plug lo. engine warranty is 2 years if i not mistaken.

Added on March 16, 2008, 9:07 pmi remember a myvi black color.. full skirting.. with this rim.. same as my brothers masda premacy..
kinda nice but will it drag the myvi? i mean need more power to move the rim and tyre?

Drag or not is definately will as big rim equal to wider tyre. But it can be reduce by getting light weight rim.

Myvi has a very bad handling...

Has anyone of you installed the Ultra Racing rear anti roll bar?
How does is feel after installing it?

Rear ARB give u less body roll when cornering and reduce the understeering.

erm.. that is for rear ARB.. wat about front ARB and front bar notworthy.gif

If ur car is 1.3L then by default got Front ARB. Front bar is called front strut bar. Use to lock the two tower Macpherson suspension and reduce chassis movement. Hence ur handling will be sharpen.

more better handling, install fender bar also.
but need tkytky to explain the benefit, he is more experience on this. ^^
*
For me, Fender bar does help but will make ur car too stiff. Acctually a normal driving car only need a few bar only. Too much bar weight increase and become very stiff. Hence comfortness decrease.

For basic setup, Rear ARB and front strut bar will do. If not enough, then can add fender bar and 4 point front lower arm bar.

But again, bar is just a enhancement of the car handling. The main thing that determine a car handling is the suspension setup (spring, absorber, rim and tyre).

Frontone??
Never heard or that brand? anyway, does it help?
Ultra Racing rear bar cosing about RM300  rclxub.gif
Because all the anti roll bar from ultra racing is in one piece and it's very solid comparing to other brands.
The reason i'm getting it is bacause my Myvi started sliding when i'm taking a small corner at the LDP tunnel (near damansara uptown) at 120km/h. I can heard my tire screaming.... it's so unstable...
*
UR Rear Bar ? which bar........

Tire screaming......what tyre u using? Adding ARB won't help to reduce ur tyre screaming 1. Get better tyre instead.

I know wat the rear ARB does. My question was how does it feel after installing it.
I haven't install it.. I'm asking your reviews on the rear ARB.

I'm using Good Year tire.. Can really feel the understeering and the unstableness of the car when taking corners... even Renault Kangroo, a much taller car can take better corners.. It takes the same corner at the same speed nicely...
*
If u read a few post b4 i had put in the review. Less Bodyroll and less understeer. Good year tyre? stock tyre? Confirm will screaming when do high speed corner lo. Well, Kangroo is a tall car but with a shorter suspension than myvi. Shorter normally mean more harder. Myvi suspension is way too soft. That y, myvi will not as stable as kangroo lo. If u wan to really make myvi a stable, u should not only add ARB.

*
Bro, Is like that lo. U wan good thing then have to pay more lo. Just like i said earlier lo. Bars is just enhancement. Suspension is the main thing.

But u can try install ARB first. Then when ur tyre wear out, change to 185/60/14. Wider a bit and get better tyre.
