20km/l?!! =.='' i am very light foot also. but i nvr even can reach 14km/l. no matter how, always around 12km/l-13.5km/l. quite unsatisfied with this. so do i need to reset my ICU? anyone here has reset the ECU and found the fuel consumption gets better? 1 more thing. any NHC users here had installed the LED side steps? mind to share out here? besides, i found there is only 1 type of spoiler available for the NHC. any others had installed a different design? your sharing is highly appreciated!

QUOTE(love_hina @ May 16 2009, 07:19 PM) Yes about that. owh no wonder, when u pump fuel usually the meter will reset 1. So the reading when u take is most probably on down hill which would not be accurate. Take your reading again after the tank goes empty it should probably be around 15 km/l

What pressure do you guys fill up your stock tyres with?
I follow the recommended tyre pressure at the side of the door there but it feels very soft.

The goodyear Assurance is rated as HP only, cornering flex is very much noticeable..try to look for UHP tyre For stock tyre, i always overinflate abit, 230-235kpa for front while rear 225-230kpa

Took hard and fast corners on the way up and down Genting (Goh Tong Jaya) earlier today. The tyres were okay, but a little scary taking high speed corners on those 185s. Quite a bit of bodyroll..but not to the point of squealing yet, thankfully. Could use some ARBs and strut bars

I never reset the ECU.. but still get good FC.. as i mention before.. I do feel the pick up more responsive than b4.. may be bcoz I'm using the semi syn oil.. engine run very smooth n no need to do deep rev like b4  ..

Over inflate 1 or 2psi is ok...hardly make any difference on FC. If you want kasi corner, then change to performance tyre. For Stock or comfort tyre, it is design for comfort, never go and overinflate too much to made the sidewall harder, you'll end up having less grip and buang into longkang..
