Anyone know where I can replaced the Headlamp left right adjuster ? I'm unable to adjust it to the left or right as it's over-screwed.

Please help.

Anyone repair their headlamp left-right adjuster before ? I'm unable to adjust it as it's over-screwed. Please help.

Anyway , is 7.0J offset rim is okay compare with standard rims 6.5J ? Besides that , is those cheapo rims dependable on ? Finding either 15" ori stock rim or 16".

Anyone here tried putting water into the engine via vacuum hose or tried D'carbo before ?
Does it feel significant differences the next day after Dcarbo ?

Yup that 1/2 meter should be enuf, it should nor more then RM20. There already 1 grounding wire on the intake manifold (mext to TB) and I'm not sure how b48753 connects to the TB. Perhaps u can get another 1 grounding wire to connect cam cover.

Buddy , could you get the grounding cables for us and sell it at a higher price ? With a little higher price to pay , we save the hassle and the chances of getting not-so-good and wrong wire.

Oh yea , I would like to ask does our original exhaust system comes with mid box ? I guess there's no midbox right ? I'm intended to replaced my cat-con with hotbits midbox but they said it's impossible to fit into the oem exhaust/piping and recommend to replaced the whole set-up at one go around @ 1.3k. Since they said replacing the extractor will remove the Cat-con aswell , I'm in a dilemma on which to change first. sad.gif

hahaha.....give me sometime (during raya holiday) to get 1 grounding wire for myself then i'll share the photo here.

Standard exhaust system comes with straight flow bullet. U can install midbox if ur rear muffler are extremely noisy.

Not necessary to get hotbits midbox, u can either get Improve bullet or Topcat bullet / midbox. And don't spent too much on bullet / midbox as it only serve to reduce the noise. In fact they can cut and weld the hotbits midbox to ur standard piping and I guess they're just trying to push the complete system to u.

Do update us when you got the grounding wire. biggrin.gif For the Hot bits Mid-section ( should be mid box ) , they're selling it at Rm314 while Topcat midbox selling around Rm250 with installation. I guess it's better to go for Hotbits right ?

QUOTE(nayte @ Sep 12 2009, 08:15 PM)
ooh thanks for the pics. i think mine's still stock. ive got around 200 bucks to spend. would u guys recommend me to change air filter or get a VS and do grounding? both cost around that price rite?
*
I think the best bang for performance would be Replacing the cat-converter with a Midbox/bullet or change the extractor to 4-2-1 type.
If you doesnt want to replace the cat-con yet , then get a K&N filter which cost you around Rm275.

Topcat midbox = RM250? that's way too expensive. Should not more then RM170.

Air Filter will give u some performance improvement compare to VS & grounding.


Added on September 13, 2009, 12:34 am

Replace ur cat-con with straight flow bullet or straight flow midbox. Forget about the VS.

Everco should have increased their price then , Mr.Kingston over there quote me around Rm210 for it and around Rm250 complete with installation.
I do even ask them if they have anything better than that mid-box that he offer me and he told me that there's full stainless steel one. He doesn't recommend it to me though as I told him that I'm still a student. Thumbs up for his explaination and services.
Get back into reality , do you think I should go for Topcat mid-box or Hotbits mid-box yea ? As everyone know , both of them is quite reputable and Hotbits is the one who dyno-tuned their product before mass-production.

Lots of you guys asking whether VS will increase performance or not and from what I read , it's either no improvement at all or only slight improvement. Do this modification when you have the spare cash. biggrin.gif

Better FC?

- Constantly check & maintain your tire pressure. Always ensure it's at it's optimum pressure.
- discreet driving. No sudden quick acceleration & cruise driving all the time.
- reduce vehicle weight. remove items or rubbish which are taking the load of the car. Skimming on the weight can reduce the load on the engine.
- if you still have cash, spend it on lighter rims or campulley.
*
Besides that
- Using a Synthetic or Semi-Synthetic Oil
- Better Sparks with good spark plug

bro so u mean u'd recommend me to replace cat con first instead of getting the new air filter? would it cost more than 300 plus workmanship? replacing cat con doesnt mean i'll get those loud exhaust noises right?
*
Everyone here will recommend to replace the cat-con first as it restrict alot of flows in your exhaust system. Removing it will definitely increate your noise level in your exhaust but by installing a Mid box , it should balance that back with a little or no increase in decibels.

As mentioned few post back , I was quoted Rm250 for the mid box with installation in Everco , maybe you should drop by and negotiate with them. smile.gif
