QUOTE(earl-ku @ Oct 1 2008, 10:36 PM) yes you can because most cars nowdays uses a catalytic converter and do not need lead anymore in the fuel and besides lead is not good for environment. reason they use lead last time is lead provides some form of protectant to piston heads to prevent them from wearing out. thank you for that brother... now i can safely fuel my ride for a slightly cheap price..most malaysian cars on the road are all tuned to RON90 and above ... so that mean anything below RON90 will be ok, to achive optimum power and their so called controlled enviroment's FC its recomended you use at least RON90 so anything above should still work but u dont get any diff la ... no extra power or so called extra mileage i would say the mileage realy really depends on the way u drive ... aihh what can i do poor ma .. mah have to drive poor mans way lo ... slow acceleration ... constant speed ... proper braking ... but dont la brake last minute ... hahahaha so in another word, RON90 using the closest RON like RON92 should be fine ... then again some other cars like the civic or some other which i do not know of ... must use RON95 and above - so cars like this cannot use RON92, cannot get optimum power and such ... so closest is RON97 ... V-Power ... which will cost u a bomb ... so far in my Viva ... i only pumped it twice only ... syiok syiok go pump VPower ... hahaha |

Guys i wanna know how you'd handle this situation. Well i own a viva 1000cc standard. And as i noticed the door sound when u close is like shutting a big tin cover.. well thats not much of a problem.. the thing here is when i listen to the radio with the door and windows closed there is still high amount of noise can be heard outsided of the car..
For example.. everything is stock in my car.. So i listen to hitz.fm with the volume at 15. and i went to pick up my friend.. i waited about 5 metres from his house gate. when he reached he asked why i put the volume so loud till can hear from his house.. i was shocked as this is just medium loudness.. and i checked myself walked to his house and true enough it can be heard.. so folks.. do you face the same situation?? how can we handle this? |
