I usually let people pass because if you're going to go faster than me, then by all means - don't let me stop you.
But when someone decides to tailgate me in a heavy traffic situation, that'll really drive me up the wall vmad.gif

Did you have the window stain issue on all your windows?

Additionally, has anyone got problems with very loud tyre noise when driving?

Just on driver's side. They got it cleaned.

1ZZ-FE is Wish? Altis? Sorry, I'm noob in Toyota engines.
What to do? Some people are really dumbf*ck. Never mind, since petrol price is low, he can do that. Dare him to do that when it's over RM3/litre.

Those Tailgaters, hell with them. Usually when these thing happens, I will bring down my speed even further to irritate them.

For those who like to tailgate me, I'll let them pass. But if they keep flashing light at me, then I'll step emergency brake and let them bang on me. We'll see how to settle then.

Andyjyneo: 1ZZ-FE is found in Corolla, Celica, Matrix and probably Wish.

I just did some reading on the engines - The 90s Civic engine - B16 series. A true rival to the venerable 4AG engine - too bad the engines we get now are all towards fuel savings. Power wise like getting weaker and weaker.

W.ROOK - I contemplated doing that but after he cannot control his speed and rear end me then not worth it already. biggrin.gif

Yes, for VTEC engine, H22A & B16x are still the best engines around.
For i-VTEC, the one and only K20A. No imitation product of K20A1, K20A4, K20A5.

Thats very dangerous. Taligaters are plenty on the road nowdays and we have no choice but to live them but whatever you do pls no eye contact and gestures, if that happens than that is where the real drama begins.

You're right also, but it depends on location and number of people in my car. Haha... But well, I don't do that anymore now. Last time, yes when I just got my licence. Now maybe I'm a bit older, so know how to be patient already.

Yup, I agree. Last time, we're naive. Now, we're almost late 20s. So time to know how to think. Otherwise, mum will be mad. rclxms.gif laugh.gif

Based on my observation for the NHC on highway.

- It's got adequete power and good acceleration
- It looks very nice in the rearview mirror (front) but not so nice when you view it from the back.
- It's got a nice side profile as well
- It seems a little wobbly when passing buses and lorries.
- Doing 150km/hr isn't a problem, just can't imagine that it would be very comfortable at that speed though
- Drivers are all S spec

Heard the service sifu said it was due to disc brakes which is not as tight as the drum breaks... same "problem" with Civic or Accord? So I didn't do any adjustment on it.

I beg to disagree. This should be fixed by them imho.

hi guys,

since some of us already receiving NHC and some are still waiting, i guess one thing we as new owner need to decide on tinting. based on feedback i've seen here :

vkool quality degrading (some case)
vkool getting rusty stain after 5 years (found feedback in other forums)
therefore, asking you guys on the tinting choice you had planned.

what i have here

vkool elite (94% infrared rejection) RM2200 (quote by SA)
vkool elite (94% infrared rejection) RM1950 (quote by one forumer here)
ecotint raybarrier (95% infrared rejection) RM1500 (quote by one forumer here)
3M safetint (99% infrared rejection) RM2000 (based on ZeroSP input)

i'm looking at ecotint, but also wanted to know other brand like rikecool, aircool and etc.

is there any other option to be considered?
*
yes... what i get the quote is RM1.5k with security tint 6mil for side windows and raybarrier for front and rear


can i know...... infrared rejection 95%means the heat rejection?? so it will be cooler? is that mean 3M can provide cooler condition under sunlight?

I oso got no issue to overtake with CVT biggrin.gif

its all the matter of fact whether u can catchup with tech....

jz like u suddenly as a user of normal dummy phone, with simplest interface, change to a PDA smartphone, with full loads of new features....
how can he/she handle well at beginning?

same theory...don treat CVT as ur conventional auto gearbox....treat it as CVT thumbup.gif

if u do it right, i don think it has issue accelerate faster than NHC
but no doubt from spec, NHC has better advantage on pick-up......at beginning

actually....... what is CVT?
