i wanted to do the same thing.. but my car when new, pump in petrol rm110!! you can imagine how empty the tank.. some more i baru tukar auto to manual.. very weird weird feeling.. so dun dare to floor it lo.. haha..

now got a bit more confident after +/- 2 weeks driving.

my FC now rm0.177/km toughly 10.17km/liter.. 90% city driving consider ok to me lah.. no complaints..

btw, haven do 1st service yet. will be doing it this week coz meter already 980kms liao.. hehe..
*
Your car still new, so FC kinda high. Now I'm getting average 13km/l. The best is 14km/l and the worst is 11km/l. If using Vpower can get up to 15.5km/l.

really? but my car is stock one..r u sure can go up to 7k shifting? i will try it if i have the chance.. drool.gif

btw, the red line at the meter is at 6.5k but at the manual its mentioned that CPS redline is 7k...so confusing... rclxub.gif
*
Redline at 6.5k rpm (at the dials) but not sure in the manual. My guess is the 6.5k rpm redline is for the non CPS campro, but to cut cost (in designing/manufacturing new dials) they use the same dials. Furthermore, it is not logical to have the engine peak power (6.5k rpm) in the redline region.

btw..any suggestion on the 1st mod dat need 2 be done on waja CPS? cant wait to mod mine...

1st: Hi-flow Air filter (really recommended).
2nd: Rim + lowered suspension (need to do both at the same time. If done rims 1st, your car will look weird).

Solution:

Scratches on bumper: Change to aftermarket bumper complete with skirting.

Rims: Change to 16" or 17" rims.

thanks 4 da advice...

i really noob for the car mod . need to know how much the cost for hi-flow air filter. Noticed dat famous one is K&N. Is it suitable? can do it at any workshop? does this mod effect any warranty from PROTON? icon_question.gif

will kept the standard rim until next year. (my annual budget already tight cry.gif )
*
K&N drop in cost RM245 and it shouldn't void the warranty (I'm using one right now).

Just got my air filter serviced at Speedworks this morning for RM10 (last time only RM8.40, the boss said this thanks to Barang Naik laugh.gif ). Wanna do a dyno for RM100 but got other appointment. Maybe next time.

After appointment, go to RACE Glenmarie to do tyre rotation, balancing and alignment for RM100. Takes 1.5 hours to get it done as the technician kept adjusting untul he fully satisfied. The most significant result is that tyres noise is hardly heard, which is kinda strange to me as I never get this 'side effect' after doing alignment. thumbup.gif

discount 3k is good offer. scar at paint can ask them to respray wan. mine was left in covered garage, they polished it and still looks new. dun be surprised, some of the new model after coming from factory also got paint issues.. just check n see.

by the way, for all the bro n sis here, i personally see those delivery guys unload new n shiny cars.. bang into each other!!! then.. the mudguard ppl said.. its normal accidents do happen, we will need to patch it up before delivery to customer only...  rclxub.gif although they restore it to 0% defect... pity the new owners.. doh.gif

time for me to change shops liao lo... btw, does anyone know where to buy the camber screws? tempted to buy elsewhere n plug it to the front wheels.. dun wan to be conned by the tyre shops... else they will somehow make sure tat u return to buy from them...  rclxub.gif

RACE offered me a pair for RM50. The difference between the one they offered and the normally sold camber is that it has wider adjusting range. Suitable if you wanna go to Sepang Open Day . brows.gif


QUOTE(squareballs @ Feb 4 2009, 08:39 PM)
What is the purpose of camber screws?

Added on February 4, 2009, 8:49 pm

I from Wangsa Permai Kepong, but my car non cps lol
*
To adjust the camber to avoid uneven tyre wears. But IMHO is not needed unless your car has got into an accident (camber way off) or got cash to burn. laugh.gif

Most adjustable camber has lower quality than the standard one. If wanna change, better buy those branded one, but will cost more than 100 per pair.

Yeah, but they do a lot of setting to the machine before balancing and alignement, such as tyre width, rim inner/outer width, rims size. Even the alignment procedure also longer. They even ask me whether I want 'street setup' or 'race setup'.

They also sells R3 product. I also asked them about CPS extractor, they said its still under developement. BTW, speedworks said it will be the same extractor whether its CPS or not, which I think he's lied just to sell the one the already had.

wat i've done so far..

1) added tinting to screens
2) added ultra sonic sensors to ori alarm (might already void warranty)
3) added ICE (front comp + subwoofer)
4) going to add carpet mats (custom larger pieces)
5) going to add 2 or 3 point front strut bars from UR

i will have to stay low until next 6mths eating maggie mee before adding on item 4 n 5.... hahaha..

hmm.. i wonder wat they modify with tat rm220?  hmm.gif

b. RACE Short Shifter System (Wiras / Satrias / Campros) - RM220 (Complete Plus Installation)[/b]

What is it & Benefits ?

- shortens the stroke during gear changes resulting in faster and firmer gear changes
- no modifications to the shift lever (maintains OEM gear shift lever height)
- more direct response as modifications are near the clutch housing area
- developed with UK based racing company
- custom hand made work
- custom gaiter and knob height alteration also available

erm..just want to ask..if i add amp to my car without woofer, will it improve the bass and sound quality??....
currently using stock player..front stock speaker and rear change to aftermarket d....so by adding amp can improve the bass and quality as well??...oh yea right now if i turn until certain volume level, the bass will crack/blunt....will the amp eliminate the problem???
and how much does the amp normally costs??..
*
The speaker should not has cracking sound because there is no amps and its still new. BTW, which speaker is that?
Better change HU 1st. Thats like the brain of the system. Wanna improve bass, no other way than to add subwoofer.
This is purely my opinion, can be ignored if you want. laugh.gif

Nope, even for 'ayam' brand amp and sub. But tell you what, once you start upgrading, there's no turning back. Been there, done that. nod.gif
