hi guys..im new around here..was very glad to know that there are cps members around.. just got my car yesterday ( gen2 manual nanbu black )..n now im finding a gang members.. btw..ok..donno wat to post but i think i'll just give my summary about my 1st impression about this car..

Advantages :-

1) 1st n most important - Engine..hmm..quite satisfied..but i was hoping for something like the VTEC / MIVEC ( just dreaming of coz.. ) but somehow..im quite satisfied...thats the 1st thing why i chose this car..bigger head than normal CAMPRO..hmm..its like type-R for campro i guess..

2) Bought it wif 3k discount..so glad about that..

3) Interior wise - hmm..ok..looks quite nice n feel quite nice..so my 1st newborn baby will enjoy the big space soon!!

4) Suspension - quite satisfied..n now my wife cant complaint at me anymore coz my satria was on adjustable..

5) Hi Rev engine - cant wait to put some stuff in it..

Disadvantages ( to be blame on proton ):-

1) why in the hell my odo was about 164 when i 1st drive it..!@#$!!

2) seat belt light not working - they told me this was a new features long2 time ago.. then why u put it then?

3) power window controller function seems kinda weird!! ( push the button n im the one who cant control the other 3 mirror )

4) Sun visor ( the thing above the driver's head ) got mirror?? salah pasang ke??

5) switch on the car ( not starting it , i donno wat u call this ) ...why aircond was on by default?

6) haaa..this one i wanna ask u guys since i dont have experience driving this car..gears was very hard for me to do a shift when i 1st driving it ( it happens when i push the clutch pedal to its max..the gears seems like stuck or somethin..however, when i angkat my kaki a little bit..it can be shifted like normal cars would do..was it the new system?

so..thats my introduction..for me i think new cars shouldnt have prob at all rite? i know la my car was manufactured on 2008 n its like ending the year's manufacturing already..but proton please la..where's your QC?? annual leave ke? lucky im buying this car only because of the engine..if the engine got prob as well..i'll curse u like my 7 keturunan wont buy ur product at all after this..

Thanks bro..would be glad to join..

yo jays...

hey u might wanna read this.. http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm (found out about this somewhere in the forum) anyone got something to share?..however for me..im not really confident wif it..but logically..that article somehow has its logic.. of coz la..new car like new wife maaa..soo sayangg..even if i wanna feel the power soo badd...but i think im gonna try that..tomorrow at GUTHRIE h/way..

last nite i took out my surbo from my other car n installed it in my cps..performance wise, felt a slight difference wif the pickup.. ( not too sure whether it was the cps or the surbo ) buttt...i think my FC reduced a little bit..when i 1st got the car it was 7.3 +- 0.1 n today its like 6.7 +- 0.1 n i was wondering when can i decat my extractor ( sorry mother nature!! )..quite rugi coz the warranty was 5 years..maybe it could void the warranty..

yaa..we do work our best to get this car out.. wat size n kind of rims u intend to be equipped? 16"? did anyone try kazuto garage's rims?

Added on January 18, 2009, 4:32 amok noticed u said drop in filters..for open pod filters many stuff have to be added rite ( cold air intake, heat shield ) ? comparing this two types of improvement..which one do u think will give bigger output ( as in hp )? but for me..i think i'll choose drop in..not sure to use open pod ( wif everything ) becoz of the possible hot air

it happened to me when i 1st driving my car..but..when i lift up the pedal a little bit..then only can engage the reverse gear..but now while my odo was around 7++ the reverse gear seems normal though..no need to do that anymore..try lift up ur clutch pedal a little bit..to give the gear box some sort of clearance space i guess ( just guessing )
