if imitation p2 oil filter? sure shocking.gif ...
i think the default oil filter from p2 car factory should be white if not mistaken...

cheap full-syn also have to depend on the quality and addictive also loh...
like BHP selling full-syn with RM99... but some of the ppl said that it at different oil groups if not mistaken...

EDIT:
confirmed is white oil filter which default from factory...

Well i not sure above P2 oil filter, the SC had been giving me the black 1........ hmm.gif

Yes.....buy group 4 to group 5 oil is better and if can with the later API standard. For quality engine oil u might look in Motul, Mobil, Q8, Castrol (German) or Chemlube. All this brand is in group 4 and 5 with latest API standard. Other full-syn that is below rm100 normally is in group 3. At the moment, i am looking at Motul H-Tech 0w-30 full-syn which selling at RM140 at Eneos. So if compare to Eneos semi-syn oil selling at RM112 i would rather take Motul H-tech. Just my 2 cent......smile.gif

duh... sound like i start regret... should choose motul full-syn instead... hehe...
but semi-syn should enough for me, 7500km clocked with 6months... 6 months interval quite long for a car... sweat.gif
another reasons i choose eneos bcos can get from some spare parts shop below RM100... and japan engine oil for japan engine... tongue.gif
eneos at 1U bandar utama and kepong jusco leh... unsure.gif

i got the standard spare part price list for myvi, almost the complete 1... i can give u later the price list, at least wont potong by sellers...


Added on February 13, 2008, 10:37 am
any spare parts shop selling oil filter loh  sweat.gif even eneos also selling it but the range look not much... quite limited...
*
As long u happy with it. But 6 month only change ur oil is a bit too long lo. Try to shorten it a bit.

wat differ normal rear antiroll bar and passo antiroll bar?
*
At the moment popular local choice for performance bar is Ultra Racing. Ultra Racing Antiroll bar is direct copy of Passo Racy Antiroll Bar but with a little different. The part that is different is the holder of the screw. Ultra Racing 1 is welded and Passo Racy ARB's holder is using a separate design.

But Passo Racy ARB hard to get and expensive. I would recommend u go for Ultra Racing.

That metal join is car Torsion Bar which is part of our rear suspension. For our myvi.....front suspension is independent macpherson strut and rear is dependent Torsion Beam.

There is no value for money bodykit. Bodykit is all about personal liking. Each person had it own taste. What u mean by make it for u? Custom bodykit???? Anyway.....there are a many design and ready made bodykit out there in the market. Take ur time surveying.... smile.gif

There are other spring which i think is better than eibach but not worth to buy coz it damn expensive. Which is Tein QNC21 ( for 1.5l Passo ) and TRD Sportivo.

i tot change absorber would be better or change both best?

Mod car is not ur cup of tea then u leave out. I advice u don't go survey or visit any accessory shop.

Change spring is depend on what spring u change. Cheapo spring don't give cheapo result. Absorber is just to absorb impact. Spring should be the main thing of all. Get the right spring rate ur car will be a hell a good ride.

just survey some tint pricing over the tint shop near my house.. the gal quote me solar gard sterling 63 for rm600...then eztint gold/green oso rm600

the solar gard spec is
VLT 63%
VLR 17%
UVR 99%
IRR 58%

eztint
VLT 60%
VLR 25%
UVR 99%
IRR 52%

is it ok the price?..
*
Well for tinting i would advice u save a bit more for better stuff

try to get tint with UVR 99% and IRR 99%. This two rating high, then ur tint will block more heat. Try survey more.

The O/D button is for u to lock the third gear. It is use for overtaking. If u use it for cruising then ur FC will skyhigh and ur gearbox lifespan will shortern.

With or without O/D myvi can touch 160km/h. Our engine had rev limiter. Can't rev beyond red line. Once rev reach at redline, rev limiter will come in and cut off the rev to protect our engine. Use Redline oil only can rev till red line ar.........hahhaha....first time i heard it.......i used cheapo P2 engine also rev and touch redline la.
