The Latest Waja, The Waja CPS
user posted image

The long-awaited Proton Campro CPS engine is now available in Malaysia (it was first introduced in Bangkok last year) with the Waja 1.6 Premium being the first model to have it. For those who are not familiar with this engine, it incorporates Cam Profile Switching (which is where the ‘CPS’ comes from), a mechanism which varies intake valve timing to enhance performance throughout the rpm range. The mechanism was developed by Lotus Engineering, a subsidiary of Proton.

Additionally, the Campro CPS engine also has a Variable Intake Manifold (VIM) which optimises the intake airflow volume according to driving conditions and is especially helpful in boosting torque at the low end. The VIM is a more sophisticated version of the Intake Air-fuel Module (IAFM) used in the Campro 1.3-litre engine of the new Saga.

user posted image
The maximum power output of the new Campro 1.6 CPS engine is 125 bhp (about 92 kW), 13% more than the 110 bhp on the non-CPS/VIM Campro engine. The new engine, in addition to providing smooth and responsive drivability, is said to be environment-friendly and complies with the latest European emission regulations.

With the CPS mechanism, Proton claims that the new Waja offers significant improvement in terms of drivability with maximum torque now increased to 150Nm. More importantly, the criticism of non-CPS engine that was first launched with the Gen2 – poor low-end torque – is now claimed to be addressed and Proton states that there is ‘better response and torque launch at low engine speeds of between 2000 - 2500 rpm when driving in the city’. During highway driving, it is also claimed that there will be better overtaking performance in the third, fourth and fifth gears within the 2,500 - 4,500 rpm engine speed range. The new Waja is available with a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission.

There are also changes to the interior design of the model to add further value to customers. The model now comes with electric remote door mirror with electric folding housing, front seat with 3-way adjustable head rest (up, down and tilt), gated auto gear shifter (for automatic transmission), new centre panel switches and finishing, as well as a keyless trunk remote system, ABS, fog lamps, alloy rims and leather upholstery as standard.

Other additional features include xenon headlamps auto-levelling (so that other motorists are not dazzled), dual tailpipes, UV-cut windscreen glass and a ‘Euro-compliant body structure’.

"Proton is striving to improve ourselves in every aspect, particularly in terms of product offerings. With that in mind, we felt it was time the Waja evolved as well. The time is right for this change and I'm optimistic the market will receive this new model in a positive manner," said Proton MD, Dato' Haji Syed Zainal Abidin Syed Mohamed Tahir.

also really looking for perfomance increase, as usual, auto tranny not enough power, luckily still using 15" stock gen 2 rims, planning to change to 16" rims, so need to increase perfomance a little bit,

thinking to change air filter, few ppl say it could increase car performance, but not sure for waja auto to change to which one, open pod or drop in? got forrumer said change to high flow air filter enough already, got idea on which brand?

thanks guys

actually Waja has a good CAI air intake already. i was also thinking of modding the air intake but can't think of anything to improve it. If u use open pod, you will make the performance worse because Waja engine bay quite hot.

i know how to install, but describe in word is real difficult. basically u need to remove the window glass from the white holder. and the white holder is connected to the wire on the plastic power window. Secondly remove the cable that connect to your door handle and that is real difficult to do so, then installing back the window glass is another challenge.

go for K&N drop in is good enough. If u wanna change to 16" then look for real light weight rims that is not more then 6.5kg/rim. Other then that remove your cat-con and use bypass or 4-2-1 (powerzone, hotbits, zenden) if u have budget. Get a bullet and s-flow (top cat). Again, if u have sufficient budget then go for Mugen, Apexi, FGK & etc.....

air filter for me.. i recommend drop-in.. coz its quite cheap and don't need to change the whole set of filter.. brand either K&N or UTR.. as i know UTR is selling cheap now.. K&N is good coz off 99% filtration due to its mesh being oil.. but cleaning u hav to buy a set of cleaning kit.. UTR metal-flow is 97% filtration but can just wash using water no need cleaning kit.. both good.. i'm using UTR btw.. easy cleaning and cheap also ur FC remains the same..

but if u want abit more power.. go for open-pod air filter.. it just that.. what i heard that FC abit kuat plus u need to do heat shield coz u only want the cool air to go in not the hot air as there are alot of other components that generates heat under ur hood.. lots of brand for open pod that is good.. K&N is one off em'..

i think ur air-cond filter need to check.. coz i got the same problem b4 when open the blower smells like and old house.. service my air-cond and after that its ok.. correct me if i'm wrong.. hehe

K&N, drop in cost me RM240+. Can get from automotive garage subforum. Try to find member name kangyoon (if not mistaken).

The aircond smell is most probably due to the filter. Try to change it.

ic, i didnt know how drop in air filter look like, the way you describe it its just the filter, no need to change any casing or rampipe or anything right? so no need to change anything, just the filter, thats great,

also, the UTR means ultra racing or what? because going to accessories shop this weekend in penang to mod cars, how much the price? hope UTR cheaper than K&N,

I think its worth because a normal APM lowered spring also will cost you about 180. I'm using the R3 spring right now, but bought from Proton COSE.

it could be the lower arm bush. If not mistaken need to change entire lower arm, price should be below RM100.

OEM product, yet looks at the review mostly ok.Just make sure to specify car model to seller,cos r3 stuff is not not universal.Ejen the Waja and Gen2 spring are totally different setup. And if it's real the lowered shall be just nice, about 2 fingers gap at front.

lol...i have both the nyek nyek sound (back), and tok tok sound (front)

the tok tok one sounds like something is gonna break soon....especially when making turns

b48753, hope u're mechanic fren can help me tomorrow


edit: also forgot to mention, when the car is not moving too long, the temp goes up immediately and then the aircon dies, when start moving again, den the temp drops immediately and aircon starts backup.

in my noobie opinion, can't be temp rite? how can the temp go up so fast and down so fast in such a short period.


2nd edit: reason i came to this conclusion is because last time when alotta electronic things are switched on, (lights, ICE, demister), u can slowly see the temp meter inching up. then when i switch off one by one, u can see the meter dropping slowly. bloody silly isn't it

hopefully ur temperature guage is ok. to confirm, use the PDT to compare the reading vs your temp guage. If the PDT shows exactly the same reading as in ur guage, then probably water pump, thermostat, fan could be intermittent malfunction.

wats PDT?

if PDT shows same as gauge, means it IS the actual temp, yes?


den why when i switch on lights and other electronic things, the gauge slowly rises accordingly and vise versa?

but now, that doesnt happen anymore. Now everytime car is stationary, gauge shoots up, aircon dies. moving, shoots down, aircon starts.


i apologise if i'm asking too much. just that i'm curious to know what zenwarlord and others think b4 i hear the mechanics side of the explanation

if u switch on any electronics the the temp gauge shoot up, that could be due to wiring.

But if your car is idling then temp gauge shoot up that could be due to radiator fan, thermostat or even water pump mulfunction.

perhaps it started off as a wiring problem?

the wiring problem then messed up the radiator fan or water pump?



does anyone know the explanation behind the aircon dying when temp is up and starting up again when temp is down?

the aircon did not dead, it's the radiator too hot for the aircon to give u cooling air. The radiator hot temp travel via orifice tube (aluminium hose) to your cooling coil. And the high temp causes the cooling coil fails to bring down the temp, therefore the blower only blows the ambient air instead of cool air.

That's the reason when radiator fan or aircon fan malfunction your aircon is hot and while ur moving it will cools down a little.

it makes sense now...

so faulty wiring may cause the radiator fan to stop working...

amazing zenwarlord, hats of to you



another thing to note, the temp gauge and aircon won't starting acting up immediately when the car is started for the first time of the day or after a long period. it only occurs after maybe 10-20 mins of driving

After 10-20mins driving, the radiator starts to heat up there it goes the problem. It does make me wonder the temp shown in your gauge is the true reading, the reason I said so is coolant really does the job well by reducing temp real fast. I meant real fast is referring to alittle moving air is good enough to bring down the temp while your car probably is suffering a intermittent fan, thermostat, water pump failure.

well no worries with that. if the car dont heat up, means no smoke coming out, it is ok, i have that problem.
temp goes up to 120 red zone, but nothing happen to the car. then the fan blows all the way if u drive the car, keep it moving the temp will come down.

anyway i got it fixed. problem ? came from the grounding wires, the nuts connecting to the chasis was rusty, get that done then it never goes up again

grounding fault.


Added on January 9, 2009, 6:42 pmi also wanna do a survey here how many parts were being replaced during the period of time u use the car

here is the list of things that was damaged
2001 model, MMC engine,

1)driver power window
2)both radiator fan >100K millage
3)3 door handles
4) compressor, i kena ketuk, spent 600 bucks on the denso model
5) my time on dashboard, bulbs. never bothered to change, change too many times
6)suspensions, all 4


well thats about it i can think off.

i also have the ngek ngek problem at the back and tok tok problem infront, drivers side, during turning also.
i think it is the manufacturing problem,

modifications ?
K&N drop in
mid sec replaced,
now wanna change to 4-2-1 extractor.

grounding wires eh? i'll keep that in mind when i go to b48753's regular workshop tomorrow. Ur symptoms are exactly like mine, shoots all the way to 120 deg. redzone, but no sign of overheating.

feel abit comforted now that i'm not the only one having these plethora of problems.

however, ur aircon didn't die on you right? so chances are mine is more than just grounding wires. how did you or ur mechanic find out it was grounding wires? i'd assume this is a very difficult problem to pinpoint


mine is 2001 model mmc engine as well.

it's scary to see how many similar replacements i have with you. except for compressor.

edit: No mods except for ICE

2nd edit: If the 120 deg. redzone reading WAS accurate, the car wouldn't be running long right? I was able to have those temps in a traffic jam for 10-15 mins and the car was fine (except i was sweating like mad cuz no aircon lar).

no worries man, when i had the problem, my eyes kept on the temp gauge. but after driving for so many years with that problem, i just assume it is normal, plus always on the look out, anyway now im also always on the look out. just in case something is wrong.

actually what u mean by by aircond die ? no cold air coming out or totally no air coming out ? it is 2 different things. if no cold air probably it is the compressor, plus the waja is very bad in cooling, my cold air is not cold during idle, it will be cold when the car is moving.
i believe proton took someones scrap design out and sell it to us malaysians

what i respect about my waja, is the chasis design share the same with MMC charisma and also volvo S40 2.0 T versions.

the cornering and handling is great,but very bad in noise control, and bad in performance. i mean i feel the car lags when the compressor turns on. paultan also says that. same problem in the new persona
also when i climb hill or slop, like inclining roads, the speed will reduce,
after i change cat conv, still it will lag, but can maintain on certain roads.

mine is auto, so really no kick at all,
not to say i hate the car, but i believe with the price u pay, u can get better ones in other countries, anyway we are here so i just bear with it.

Proton is well famous of their aircon and no production car can come any closer to it. For your case, it's due to your high temp that causes bad aircon cooling. Secondly, the compressor, gas and the cooling coil could be culprit.

Speedworks/hotbits/Powerzone claim to be better than cap ayam extractor, but no dyno comparison has neen made to show how much better they are. For me, spending 400++ for an extractor just isn't worth it (poor maaa laugh.gif ).

if u considering on extractor only.. the percentage of it giving u more power is not promising.. coz in certain cases the extractor/header upgrade will only result in no ++ performance.. it will only feel the same.. and worst the car loses it power on the low end torque.. if there is a difference in performance.. maybe not that much.. you will not satisfied.. hehe..

best way to do it is.. get a perfect setup from the header, to the bullets, piping and to end with the rite muffler (straight flow or s-flow).. also you also need to upgrade ur air intake..

since you already upgrade ur filter to K&N and already replace the CAT..
why not search for header+piping+muffler.. powerzone/speedworks/hotbit if you take each of those full exhaust system will get better result.. by far why dont u consider on R3 also.. hehehehe...

From my experience, changing extractor is the one that give most improvement, then bullet. Muffler just for sound (I'm using MT, if AT, need to carefully choose your muffler). Piping I don't know, never done that yet. laugh.gif

fiber is cheper compare to PU.. but certain design for fiber skirting is quite expensive coz dont hav in PU..
hmm.. usually if u buy at any acss. shop.. the price they put for any skirting/bodykits is including installation cost..
or should i say u buy the kits and they fix it to ur car for free.. try to buy all the skirting at the same shop coz that way
u buying in bulk.. can nego good price.. about paint.. i dunno the cost for just skirting.. coz i did mine b4..
the whole rear+front bumper spray, side skirt and rear bonnet since i cover it with metal weld and paint.. around rm500..

I wanna thank b48753 for his patience and guidance in fixing my overheating waja.

Even though b48753 had work to do on Saturday, he spent the whole morning with me all the way to the afternoon about 3-4pm until my waja fixed. He even took the time to explain and educate me on a car's engine and everything related.

His friend's workshop and all the other guys working there were toiling so hard to get my car fixed, and all were friendly and well-mannered. (I even got 2 free gifts, lol)

Although money had to be spent, I'm relieved and happy that my temperature gauge isn't hitting the ceiling anymore, so far the temp is fine, and my aircon is cool as ever, stationary or moving.


notworthy.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif


Many many thanks again to my bro b48753, who went all out to help someone he barely knew.


Once I'm done saving money, we go fix my absorbers ya? who knows, maybe change air filter and 4-2-1 too? lol tongue.gif

fiber the only think u'll regret if it crack when hitting speedbumps, ramps etc.. it can be repair.. the only thing that pening to think of the cost for resray or repaint.. my friend breaks and cracks 4 times.. resulting quite thick fiber layer.. but after that the strength is same like PU.. FRP is good.. but against the wind at high speed.. it tends to kembang and crack also.. i know this 1 gen2 MME guy change all of the R3 bodykit to stock gen2 since the R3 kits is FRP.. he already repair his front bumper 7 times.. hehe

The spec of the car that mod by previous owner:

Original 4G18P engine
LCP
R3 bodykit
Black Colour
16" sportrim 215/55/16
Noisy Muffler

All pro brothers here, I am facing some idling problem during cold start... The rpm seem high 1500++... And what is the normal rpm for the car during aircond on/off?

When I open egine bonnet, I can saw that lcp is somekind of shaking... Is it normal?

Between the car seem to shake when I am pressing the pedal too much over 4k rpm if I am not wrong...

And any recommendation to change for my muffler to convert it to be silent than the previous muffler and ori stock muffler?

Other than that, I not yet facing any problem... Erm...One more, when I start the car, sometimes the car timing going high then struggling then drop to 0...Means engine died... The proccess not even 20 seconds... What problem hor?? If anybody could reply me and help me, that would appreciate... Thanks anyway...

Welcome.

During cold start such 1.5K rpm is normal for fuel injection engine, so no worry on that. Meanwhile when u start your car the rpm shoot high and drop to 0 that is probably u switch on the aircon immediately or aircon is switched ON when u start engine, am i right? If yes, then get your car tuned via PDT and the problem will gone for time being but after a while it will be back. So, what u should do is, start engine and wait the rpm to drop then u can swtich on the aircon.

LCP is not suppose to be shaking, that LCP probably warpped. Get it changed and see wheather it solved your chassis shaky on 4K rpm revving. Btw, did u changed the engine mounting? Bad engine mounting can causes the chassis shaky as well.

Btw, what is your current exhaust setup?

i think there is a problem with your exhaust setup. maybe u should go to a exhaust shop and tell him to check the setup and change your muffler to a quieter one.

Qoute:
ll pro brothers here, I am facing some idling problem during cold start... The rpm seem high 1500++... And what is the normal rpm for the car during aircond on/off?
try to disconnect your car battery overnight and put it back again in the morning. after that, leave the engine running for 5 to 10 minutes. The ECU will reset itself.

When I open egine bonnet, I can saw that lcp is somekind of shaking... Is it normal?
not normal lol.


Between the car seem to shake when I am pressing the pedal too much over 4k rpm if I am not wrong...
dunno about this. could be anything.

And any recommendation to change for my muffler to convert it to be silent than the previous muffler and ori stock muffler?
u have to check with the exhaust shop.

I wanna thank b48753 for his patience and guidance in fixing my overheating waja.

Even though b48753 had work to do on Saturday, he spent the whole morning with me all the way to the afternoon about 3-4pm until my waja fixed. He even took the time to explain and educate me on a car's engine and everything related.

His friend's workshop and all the other guys working there were toiling so hard to get my car fixed, and all were friendly and well-mannered. (I even got 2 free gifts, lol)

Although money had to be spent, I'm relieved and happy that my temperature gauge isn't hitting the ceiling anymore, so far the temp is fine, and my aircon is cool as ever, stationary or moving.

Many many thanks again to my bro b48753, who went all out to help someone he barely knew.
Once I'm done saving money, we go fix my absorbers ya? who knows, maybe change air filter and 4-2-1 too? lol tongue.gif

First, welcome to the club.

Check your coolant, is it enough,leaking of radiator and ping or water pump. Malfunction cooling fan also could contribute to this problem.

It maybe good to insulate the heat from entering the engine bay but remember, the heat is trapped in the extractor and probably cause it to crack. Better do CAI to ensure the engine get cools air.

the main pupose to wrapped the extractor or piping is to maintained the heat so that the exhaust gas maintaining the temperature and light for easy evacuation. While maintaining the temp, the piping will be crack easily as what you've said earlier. But ofcourse it serve to reduce engine bay heat.

ic, in that case, i think its better to mod your hood to make it higher at one end, so that the heat (waja create lots of heat) to exit better from engine bay. is it ok? i dont know why i'm so concern about heat, expecially to my car and my computer, since i had problem previously with over heating cars (the radioator hose explode) and burn pc (literally burn pc, lol)

cooler temperature means GB fluid will be cooler as well. The AT fluid will run under the radiator for cooling then retun back to GB.

NA engine do not need engine oil cooler. Unless turbo charged. Most ppl use the cooler as ATF cooler to protect GB.

the ATF Fluid already change last year (by the way, how many kilometer need to change? maybe should change to new one). just after change also same feeling. when the engine is cold, the timing only very high and jerking. when the engine is hot/working temperature, the timing not very high and still jerking. but if i press the accelerator harder from stand still to more than 50kph, the gear changing very smooth. i cant cruise below 50kph, the gear changing very bad

if u r frequently floored your pedal then 20,000km is a good timing to replace your ATF. If not then still ok to run 30,000km~40,000km.

If your gear engagement is not smooth, then get it tuned by using PDT. Jerking during 1st gear to 2nd for 4G18 is a known issue.

If not mistaken, your insurance will only pay the car that you hit (and your car). About the saman, I think as long as the no 1 car doesn't lodge a report, the 3rd car will be the one to get the summon. hmm.gif

in that kind of accident typically the one that hitting has to pay la, even in this chain scenario.

but i've make a claim of knock on knock before where my car got sandwhiched and we're all claim ont the last car insurance, which is really responsible for the accident

if the last car buy insurance below market price then he only able to pay other car, but most likely he need to pay some excess for his own repair.

Check the sound on stabalizer link if you are only having this sound on rough terrain. the stabilizer link always give the problem. Look for the Japan 1 cos it's re-oilable. =)

After 10-20mins driving, the radiator starts to heat up there it goes the problem. It does make me wonder the temp shown in your gauge is the true reading, the reason I said so is coolant really does the job well by reducing temp real fast. I meant real fast is referring to alittle moving air is good enough to bring down the temp while your car probably is suffering a intermittent fan, thermostat, water pump failure.

remove the thermostat, the thermostat will open up to allow more water to circulate in the engine in certain temperature.

i removed the one in my 4G15, plan to remove the cam-tak-pro ones..

i installed the ATF cooler, a chop shop unit (toyota one), now change of gears feels smoother...

removing the thermostat means that your radiator will be continuosly running once you switch on your ignition?

After installing the ATF cooler, did u floor it to see is there any different in performance?

Guys,

I own a Waja 2003 4G18. Lately everytime I switch the air-con on after a few hours not using hte car I get a musty odour from the air-con vent for the first 20 seconds or so. As far as I know - waja does not have the air-con cabin filter... Anyone have any Idea what can cause this.........and how to solve.

not the radiator fan thermostat lah, i mean the water routing thermostat. after u start ur car, the water only route certain part of the engine only to allow quick warm up, after that, the thermostat will open up to allow water to be routed to more area.

yes, after the ATF cooler installation, i find it easy to rev up. easily climb up 6K ~ 7K rpm. when down hill, the down shift will not kick in too soon.

imagine everytime your wife/gf, son/daughter, relatives, friends, cat/dog stand nearby when you start the car. They breathe in Cancer-causing toxic fumes....... cry.gif icon_question.gif

nowadays modern catalytic converters are so advanced that they won't effect FC or performance la.

If really wanna save the earth, then use solar or battery powered car.
As long there is burning of petrol it will release toxic, cat-con is there to reduce not eleminate.

Regardless how advance the cat-con is, as long it is restriction type that causes performance drop.

wahh, how come both of you so good FC 1?? 1 thing i am using 15" with 195/60/R15 tyre, does it affect the meter reading??
yes after 3kRPM will be kinda loud for 4g18

could be the "uncle style driving" laugh.gif + regular maintenance and servicing. avoid carrying unnecessary load.
changed my driving style lately. seldom goes beyond 3k rpm. auto transmission doesn't mean to be thrashed anyway.
there is a forum member who managed almost 650km on full tank.
i am on stock car, btw.

Anyway to isolate that sound? Sound proof sheet got help in eliminate this kinda of sound? Sound proof for door can isolate wind sound? Coz my car after 90, the wind sound really quite loud... Suggestion?

check around in automotive garage sales. there is a member goes by the name manosh85 selling those double layer sound proofing material. he could help you, perhaps. am tempted to have a go at it too but gotta wait till after cny. icon_rolleyes.gif

500km on full tank is already good enough. my 580km covered is calculated from full tank till the warning light turn on; which is a little under one bar(still good for a few extra km tongue.gif ). then i refill a.s.a.p! paiseh..... sweat.gif
the good practice is by refill once there is one bar left. waja fuel pump is kinda sensitive.
if we only refill once the fuel light turn on, the chances are; the fuel pump gonna give way sooner sweat.gif

btw, did you guys noticed; it takes longer time for the fuel gauge to move from 1/1 to 1/2 ?
but once it was in 1/2, it goes down very fast hmm.gif

mine also bad, stock is 8km/l only

then i change mythelogy LCP, it become 10km/l (100 city driving with some high rev)

then i decat (really sorry to the environment, not significant improvement in FC, but got different in pickup), it became 11++km/l hardly touch 12km/l.

i too don't encourage decat, a felt a bit bad to the environment.

then i added ATF cooler, i think the FC improve also, still monitoring. And i think it is best investment in modding the car so far. to prevent too many energy lost in the AT and prolong the life of the AT GB.

mine is cam-tak-pro "E" version. (look like squareballs avatar one)

Btw, since so many ppl care about enviroment why not u guys do some gathering and bring along the banner to the bus station and lorry company. Make them to cut down their black smoke, after that all us can use back the cat-con. thumbup.gif

to save FC in cam-tak-pro not neccessary lite foot driving.

rev it to 2K then maintain will save more than gradually increase the rpm.

if you want more power have to rev it to 4K rpm then cruise will save more.

the theory is to get the car move, then maintain the momentum.

i study the cam-tak-pro rpm range and torque curve, plus some driving monitoring to understand this.

dun fire me ah, my theory not einstein theory, just share what i founf out oni, might not be true with your car.

yeah.. not saying mythelogy is a fuel saving device.. just wanna see what changes where.. btw mythelogy is quite good coz of the rubber damper.. and for that also the price is high.. but to a crack pully i not going for other brand coz the longterm effect in every parts connecting with it is gonna cost me an engine.. so mythelogy is my choice..

remove the memory fuse(with yellow casing) on the fuse box next to your air intake. Press brake and put back the memory fuse. Start ur engine and switch on your aircon to max and let the car idling for 10mins (Don't step on the accelerator). after 10mins switch off your engine and start back again, that completed the cycle.

huh, how to press brake and put back the fuse at the same time? press brake inside car rite? fuse box out side car right? or you mean, go inside the car, step on the brake one time, then come out and insert the memory fuse?

or need someone outside the car while you press the brake then at the same time the other person put in the fuse?

you are kinda a right. a friend of mine driving a 2005 camxpro waja auto. driving with light foot return a bad fc.
anything over 3.5k and the engine shows it's true potential. the fc too; shows better return.
perhaps, it was the camxpro's high rev nature / engine design itself. hmm.gif

the prob is we always need to rev it till 3.5K, so making the GB cannot tahan the short stint rev (high temp)

tt's y i decided to invest in ATF cooler, for me to rev more with peace of mind

the GB won't be that fragile la, that is INVECSII gb and it can hold up to 8.2K rev. If it can't withstand 3.5K rev then must as well Proton place a rev cut at 3K.

when i say rev till 3.5K u think only 3.5K meh...hehehe...i know INVECS II is durable, but i want it to be more durable due to the way i drive, the hills i always pull up and the load i always carry.

could be the "uncle style driving"  laugh.gif + regular maintenance and servicing. avoid carrying unnecessary load.
changed my driving style lately.  seldom goes beyond 3k rpm. auto transmission doesn't mean to be thrashed anyway.
there is a forum member who managed almost 650km on full tank.
i am on stock car, btw.
check around in automotive garage sales. there is a member goes by the name manosh85 selling those double layer sound proofing material.  he could help you, perhaps.  am tempted to have a go at it too but gotta wait till after cny. icon_rolleyes.gif

it's mine?
get 650km full tank.... tongue.gif
actually my full tank can go more than 750km ++ (till dry and causing my fuel pump kong.... blush.gif )
so make sure all of u not to let ur fuel dry.... its cost me RM400 to replace fuel pump...
not to mention need to tow... but lucky my car stop just near my house.... smile.gif

The latest JVC very nice in the cosmetic....but too bad, their not in the top 4 list yet. Get Alpine instead, if u like Clarion then wait as they will sell it in our local market this year.

i never really push mine due to the nature of waja fuel pump which is very sensitive.
400 bucks in consider cheap. pesc used to offer 'em around 650 bucks last time.
your waja is 4g18 manual is it? any modification? thumbup.gif

btw, my car still produced the squeaking sound like 'ngek' ngek', even after checked the brakes,
fuel tank bracket and lower arm bush sweat.gif
it happened worst in the morning during the 1st run; either in R or D. slow braking in traffic jam and the sound is there too!
seem like the sound is coming from the front:stars:
should i go for disc skimming? but it's not a high pitch sound icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

thanks in advance!

zenwarlord : No i didnt get the clear coat because not really needed for the side mirror. i sprayed the black color area only because the black color paint peeled off.

MOMOchacha : ACE hardware in KL Midvalley or Sunway Piramid. i think got skyblue color. My Waja is gold color but i spray black color for the side mirror. This paint not really suitable to spray for the whole car body.

Guys, what do you guys think of the Eclipse CD1000 Headunit up for sale in Garage sale for RM300?

Is this seller trustable and have you guys been to his shop at Kajang?
I PM the seller, he said it's original.

So what do you guys think?

FYI, howie is selling for RM3xx, which is much more than what goo126 is offering.

arghh.... my waja is left stranded in my office compound.

the engine suddenly died during driving on the road. all system switched off. wtf! luckily, died near my office

popped out the hood, checked what's wrong. the 30A ignition fuse burnt. replace a new one, and immediately burnt. try to use a piece of wire, smokes. damn... some serious electrical problem.

so the car is basically dead. turn the key, all blank. fark. 3 yrs+ with excellent record, and suddenly this bummer. have to wait till monday to send it to the shop and check what's wrong with the electrical

and always, with electrical, it's expensive

anyone had the same problem before? where should i start poking? replace the ignition? or some exposed wires?

I just ask foreman to check my car. He cleaned the fuel injection head. And he said that fuel filter below the seat is old and kind of stuck. So that cause the car to shake when I am trying to push him to higher rev. Anyway, the early start of the car that the car will rev high then drop to 0 still exist. The foreman said after the head cleaned, it should be no problem. But this morning this problem occur again...Argggggghhhh... What to do? Any suggestion? Tuning??

arghh.... my waja is left stranded in my office compound.

the engine suddenly died during driving on the road. all system switched off. wtf! luckily, died near my office

popped out the hood, checked what's wrong. the 30A ignition fuse burnt. replace a new one, and immediately burnt. try to use a piece of wire, smokes. damn... some serious electrical problem.

so the car is basically dead. turn the key, all blank. fark. 3 yrs+ with excellent record, and suddenly this bummer. have to wait till monday to send it to the shop and check what's wrong with the electrical

and always, with electrical, it's expensive

anyone had the same problem before? where should i start poking? replace the ignition? or some exposed wires?

I just ask foreman to check my car. He cleaned the fuel injection head. And he said that fuel filter below the seat is old and kind of stuck. So that cause the car to shake when I am trying to push him to higher rev. Anyway, the early start of the car that the car will rev high then drop to 0 still exist. The foreman said after the head cleaned, it should be no problem. But this morning this problem occur again...Argggggghhhh... What to do? Any suggestion? Tuning??

the weird thing is that the alarm + central locking works fine. in fact, anything that uses the battery, but w/o the ignition key turned on, works

the batt was replaced less than a year ago.

the 100Amp fuse on the batt + lead is fine. so is the 80A batt fuse in the fuse compartment. all fuses are ok, except for the 30A fuse marked with "key and switch" logo. it keeps burning out even if replaced with a new fuse

anyone got the electrical wiring / circuit diagram for waja? mebbe need to trace and check the key ignition switch line

What color was that guy's City? The problem is Honda Malaysia didn't launch the Taffeta White color in Malaysia or else I would have taken that color too. It's sweet! whistling.gif

Battery water level does not indicate battery power level. I also think the battery level is low.

Ok guys! i will update you on my latest DIY project.

Lately i noticed considerable road noise. I checked under the rear wheel wells and found that the black stuff have stripped away leaving the metal exposed.

Went to ACE hardware (again) and bought myself 2 cans of Mar Hyde (you can use other brands too) RUBBERIZED UNDERCOATING.

i used newspaper and masking tape to cover the area surrounding the wheel wheel and wrapped up the suspension with newspaper.The tires need to be wrapped too.

i jacked up my car, wrapped a cloth over my nose and mouth, and sprayed the whole wheel well. 1/2 can per wheel well. I did it yesterday morning and it took 24 hours to dry. laugh.gif

Today i checked but still not satisfied with the thickness so i decided to spray 1 more layer. Should dry just in time for me to get to work. i will do the front wells next week because its tiring and the stuff takes forever to dry.

Will update you guys on the results tomorrow!

Tips: That undercoating stuff is nasty. Don't breathe it in. Even with the face mask i felt dizzy and had to stop after doing 1 wheel well. Also, don't be a hero and empty the entire can on 1 wheel well because it will take 4 to 5 days just to dry if you do that. even a 1/2 can coating took 24 hours to dry lol.

Also, use another jack to support your car as backup or use a car stand. Sometimes car jacks can fail. Safety first.

"key and switch" fuse burn bcos that is the very 1st on/off circuit, if that fuse don't burn then it will damage ither device even ur ECU. Did you install anything lately? Worst to the worst u need to remove all the deivce such as HU, Aircon panel, meter, hazard module, heater, wiper, power window and see whether the fuse still burn.

Yes, that is the one, but there is another type that more lights with only 4 spokes. but that is pcd100, i tot all those size suppose to be pcd 114?

anyway I found this website very interesting. I tried on Mitsubishi as the out shape is most close to waja. You can even change chassis color, caliper color, suspension height. enjoy.

What is consider as 'normal engine sound' and what is 'abnormal sound from engine'? I means if the car is running in fifth gear and around 2k rpm with 80km/h. Is it normal to hear the engine making sound that kinda of loud? Anything to check with this?

rclxms.gif today jus done ATF (hyundai) cooler flex.gif RM200 (halfcut + labour)
-pickup become slower; torque decrease on low gear (may due to longer route for new piping to ATF cooler)
-high speed pickup significant (70 above very fast)
-engine idle sound even quiter, very calm & steady.
-FC should further monitor cool2.gif

I am heavy traveller at JB roughly 3K per month is a must, highway 70% normal 30%, so i think install ATF should help. whistling.gif

well looking at all the mods available... if you don't want to mod anything else, ATF cooler is the ONE to get done... extending the GB life means you get longer service life of your GB...

Bear in mind, if you fully decouple the ATF oil cooling from the radiator, it should give you a good protection in event of any radiator related failure.. the ATF oil is still cooler.

LCP not Lxn Pa Chi but is lighten crank pulley abt 700g compare to ori is abt 1.5kg. It will make ur car respond faster when rev with lighter crank load.


Added on January 20, 2009, 11:31 pmFOR all Wajarian, don forget to check ur fuel filter located at driver side rear passenger seat (outside bottom)

I may end up in block fuel pump coz burn of it, abt 2 table spoon sand pour out from the filter. It may also block the injector.

Beware.....change every 20-30K

hi englandcaptain, can u describe more of the type of sound u hearing?

does it sound like steel brush against steel? high pitch? low sounds?

is it coming from front or rear? or both?

happens in the morning only or happens throughout the day?

how long have you travelled since you changed ur brake pads?

let us know more n we can help to pin point the problems. sometimes, its a simple installation issue like brake 'shim's are not installed properly. its the little metal plate that ur brake pads rests (in between pump cylinder n the brake pad).

that's the problem when no proper baked in for new brake pad. U can try u luck by do the bake in by following these instruction. Fully accelerate then press hard (emergency brake) at the end of 2nd gear, don't let ur car fully stop, let the car roll in approx 10kmh. Then start again. Do that for 4-5 cycles continuosly and remember to find a safe place/road to do so. Good Luck.

those rm50 want are those bad blaring white light that irritate u when facing them..
usually these one that give the HID the bad impression of sakit mata light on the road.. and coz of those cheap one now JPJ striping down all type of HID in a car..
those few hundred ones are the good one.. they dont harm the other driver.. i donno much.. this i can tell u cool.gif

As I remember last years when my friend brought it around 1K for 16" (after trade in standard rims) and 1.2K for 17". That's excluded tires.

But it sounds fishy when he said used for 2 weeks but the thread left 40%? Anyway i would suggest u to run few tires shops to check that rims price before decide. I feels it's not very cheap, but worth to consider if it's really used for 2 weeks.

this type of TREND rims in my list long time ago, but too bad the 15" (5.5kgs) only has PCD100. But finally end up getting 15" BHL brand, the weight just 5.8kgs. Fifth rows, 1st from left (BHL-173 ( 15'' 8H )) RM700 after trade in ori rims, very good design as the rims outer is well protected by tires.

arghh.... my waja is left stranded in my office compound.

the engine suddenly died during driving on the road. all system switched off. wtf! luckily, died near my office

popped out the hood, checked what's wrong. the 30A ignition fuse burnt. replace a new one, and immediately burnt. try to use a piece of wire, smokes. damn... some serious electrical problem.

so the car is basically dead. turn the key, all blank. fark. 3 yrs+ with excellent record, and suddenly this bummer. have to wait till monday to send it to the shop and check what's wrong with the electrical

and always, with electrical, it's expensive

anyone had the same problem before? where should i start poking? replace the ignition? or some exposed wires?

"key and switch" fuse burn bcos that is the very 1st on/off circuit, if that fuse don't burn then it will damage ither device even ur ECU. Did you install anything lately? Worst to the worst u need to remove all the deivce such as HU, Aircon panel, meter, hazard module, heater, wiper, power window and see whether the fuse still burn.

Hi bro's !! i need some help lerh..

today i installed a set of sapura pro ride sport springs, (seller claims its R3) and my back seems to be way too low. i cant even put my finger in between the tyre and the top (hope u get wht i mean) and yes i cannot even see my suspension. thts how low it is. is this normal or is something wrong?

one more thing i noticed is the right side seemed to be slightly lowr than the left. why ar??? faulty springs or ? need to settle it soon gonna drive long distance for cny.

if i wanna raise the back abit, what are my options? besides buying new springs since i just bought it. dun say adjustable abs also cos i also just changed to GAB SA series

frankly speaking, i dunno the maintenance cost.

duh doh.gif , i am not bashing those brands, just sharing my 2 cents nia, sorry if i make you misunderstood or offended you in anyway sweat.gif blush.gif ...and no doubt some japs brand are well known for reliability. i am in automotive field my-self today and tell you 9 years in this industry, i see a lot shocking.gif . look back to the older japs models say in the 90's and compare the ones we have currently. i'd say, during the 90's, japs packed in a lot and try hard to sell the car rclxms.gif and to please the customer (frankly speaking i like the civic and the toyota SEG from those days rclxm9.gif ), so that they can edge other brands. just compare the corolla 1.6 of those day and the ford / pug / or other conti's...but now, some japs are confident enough that they just packed something and they are confident customer will buy it just because of the brand shakehead.gif . GM today, is no longer the car manufacturer so sells the most car, but toyota. to continue to lean down the cost and gain more profit, just compare the vios. basically, it's a face lift to a dugong version, replace by electric power steering......anything more significant? a simple package, but toyota die hard fans will still buy it blink.gif . if we dun say die die want a toyota, we see more option around us...Avanza??? sighhh.... blush.gif

if you are a sport fans, for RM300 bucks, will you buy a Nike or a asics running shoe? I believe a lot here will opt for the bet value for money and some will opt for the name. just a personal preference, no right or wrong.

this is just my oppinion,some japs brand with range of product we have in malaysia are over rated, and it is that way for a reason, someones failure might be another persons opportunity. if compare an open market, we do have a choice......at the end of the day, the individual still have the right to his or her own personal prefrence...his/ her own money... whistling.gif

Need a quick answer too,

Waja 1.6 (A) approximately how much full tank petrol? And what about Waja FC?
Waja 1.6 (A) suitable for RON92 fuel?

Warm regards,

frankly speaking, i dunno the maintenance cost.

duh doh.gif , i am not bashing those brands, just sharing my 2 cents nia, sorry if i make you misunderstood or offended you in anyway sweat.gif  blush.gif ...and no doubt some japs brand are well known for reliability. i am in automotive field my-self today and tell you 9 years in this industry, i see a lot shocking.gif . look back to the older japs models say in the 90's and compare the ones we have currently. i'd say, during the 90's, japs packed in a lot and try hard to sell the car  rclxms.gif and to please the customer (frankly speaking i like the civic and the toyota SEG from those days rclxm9.gif ), so that they can edge other brands. just compare the corolla 1.6 of those day and the ford / pug / or other conti's...but now, some japs are confident enough that they just packed something and they are confident customer will buy it just because of the brand shakehead.gif . GM today, is no longer the car manufacturer so sells the most car, but toyota. to continue to lean down the cost and gain more profit, just compare the vios. basically, it's a face lift to a dugong version, replace by electric power steering......anything more significant? a simple package, but toyota die hard fans will still buy it blink.gif . if we dun say die die want a toyota, we see more option around us...Avanza??? sighhh.... blush.gif

The Avanza, City and Vios is for SEA market and the quality expectation is different furthemore they're in different category from Waja/Civic/Altis/Latio/Sentra.

What i'm trying to said is those Japs did not over confident, over rated neither sacrifies their quality, all their car are even better from 90's. I would suggest you to have a test drive with Latio/Altis/Sentra, then u tell us what is your opinion.

waja tank is approximately 60 liter. full tank should cost around 108 bucks from the recent 1.80 per liter price.
my old waja 4g18 auto can cover over 580km on full tank; 85% city and 15% highway driving.
calculated from full tank till the fuel light warning turn on. which is still one bar. could be good for another
100km++ but it's a bad practice to fill up only when the tank is empty.

i stay away from ron92 though icon_rolleyes.gif


@ibmlenovo;
check around at www.mudah.com.my. quite a number of those metal type are up for sale.
mostly front one icon_rolleyes.gif

i have driven the Latio/Altis/Sentra. I agree they have good quality, in fact i like the Latio the most among the 3. Compare back to the models from the 90's, of course lah they are better, the tech is already newer. What i am saying is, if you compare models at 90's it-self (only among models during the 90's), and you compare the models for now only, the Latio/Sentra/Altis are not packaged impresively. During the 90's, the Japs try very hard. I am not saying they don't try hard now, just that, i think it's fair to say "only I think" they did not try as hard as they do before to please the customer already.

and I didn't mentioned they sacrifice their quality......I mentioned, most of the Malaysian over-rated the Japs model we have in Malaysia......insisting to buy a Japs just because it's a Japs. blush.gif

RM100, i bet is not original. Those imitation brand are pretty soft at their metal, u can pull and warp it when u've installed it. Why not u get those original from Nardock, i remember he is selling momo ori (used) RM150~RM180.
