I actually quite like the modulo kit for this city, i mean it covers up the "eye pocket" effect on the original E type fog light and looks really cool with black diamond shape border. For that shape to stand out i actually prefer Polished Metal Metallic (i can see the shape) and and don't like silver. But then the overall impression i prefer crystal black.. what do you guys think ar!!!???

I got mine at 2.47%.. sa says its very good rate now and might get lower.

The optional gear in NON-padde shift model is to lock the gear from changing. You know the time where u always meet a hill that optimal speed sits right between the gear change ratio of 2nd and 3rd (Or 1st and 2nd), and you get really annoyed it chaging up to 3rd when it got enough speed but drop back to 2nd when it's underpowerd (repeatedly) and it's draining the gear box too bits by bits. So it has nothing to do with the engine but with the gear box, ofcousre if you're sensitive enough you can lift your foot the moment its going to change gear to reduce speed, but thats crazy annoying.

Paddle shift already have the capabilities to lock the gear as it's ... well paddle shift-ish. It stay at the gear you've selected unless it's underpowerd.

I've used it on my dad's civic before. It's quite fun and sophisticated, you can shift up manually but when you breaks or slow down, it will down shift to the proper 1 for you, you know i used to be a manual driver for 7 years, it gives more sense what gear to use than paddle shift offered by HONDA so i always have hard time putting proper gear during a corner. But as a hybrid usage, manual up auto down. Not bad.. even thou i didn't bother using paddle shift most of the time.

I'm only using it more often in HIGHWAY, where i want to speed up a little but i dont want it to rev up and go 4th or even 3rd, i can do that without using paddle shift but i have to push my foot really little to sync with the rev so it doesn't trigger the underpower and downshift, but hey... 5 hours to JB can be exhausted on the foot even with cruise control if i'm going to press bit by bit everytime i wanna little speed. Put it on 5th gear in paddle shift.. press with the throttle as you relax your foot (without lifting) and you'll still be pumping little gas thanks to the drive by wire thinggy. And you won't wake the whole car up with the downshift rev noise and the little g force it produce.

Guys my SA introduce me a to get modulo full kit at sungai besi at rm2.3k... he's honest and reliable cause my dad bought the civic from him also so i'm considered return. I trust him but i'm just not sure bout the kit it self. According to his enquiries it's ABS (not fiberglass) and even have the badge modulo on the skirting. Comes from thailand. Is that safe to get? any drawbacks i'm looking for compare to the genieue parts?

Mind to share abit more on the materiels? I'm very concern about the quality, scare it faded, crack, disorder after sometime of usage. So concern that i keeps dillemma between getting the ori or aftermarket. Ofcourse i'm trying to save money also so if it fail after some period, it's not saving me any money.

Most of the credit goes to the sand that lose it's traction. But it does shows the body less roll when breaking.

Oh one quick question, the middle rear seat belt.. is it 3 point or 2 point.. i saw some witha 3 point spec but the launching pic shows it's 2 point. (Forgot to check that one out in the showroom)

Have any of u guys did any sort of paint protection in SS2 (Opposite Redbliss), i did one for my dad but i'm not sure what kind of treatment it is, cost bout 360. Is that a kind of PPS. He did mention that the material he uses will bond with the car paint and last for a year or so...

Nice thought ... is it genuine? i mean how do i tell them to place the label away from the dirty area... i'm getting the black and probably the modulo too..

You're not even old yet

Actually i think she might be jealous of you loving ur NHC more than her.. or SOME Chicks out there who wanna ride in your NHC mauahaha...

quick question, if you relocate the alarm to the rear bumper, does it means ppl can actually disable it since it is now outside of the alarm protection? and does it damange easily when theres flood on the stupid KL road in the rainy day?

Har... actually avanza also have it =.=

Every thievery starts from the Demand for the objects. In this case i could think of situation like S spec car owner who wish to install E spec side mirror, but think the original one from Honda is too expensive, so they started enquires on local shops.. where do they get it with a cheaper price? definitely not Honda, such complicated device is not ready to have replica yet too.. so best way is to take it from others. The shop may not know how they got thier stock.. it can be many many transaction... but what i'm saying is there is always a demand for such specific items... Why do they take both side? so they can sell as a pair to the local shops...

think of R3... leave your R3 on the street and you pretty much left what the original satria have..

It may not make a difference.. but i really think that if you're looking to upgrade the mirror for the S spec.. go for a trusted source... even if you have to pay a little more... don't contribute to crime.. what you having maybe someone lost and it will never stop.. I'm not starting a blaming game.. just something we should've thought of..

Try one SC that have paint shop... i once took my dad's civic to touch up and they did it FOC.. reason it's just.. well take some paint and touch... unless you're talking bout repaint.. then they sure charge...

I went to the SRI UTAMA in SETAPAK.. opposite Internation School... the paint shop they have there is rated best among Malaysia's Honda SC.. according to my SA.. and my dad's SA.. well.. the same person.. honest guy thou..

Looks like an AIR paip for to carry the air into the tire..

How do i sign up? i'm getting my car most probably mid of June.. and still considering to install a ori BK or not.... it's really expensive thou..
does the HC3 also entitled to get nice price on other stuff like the techlock/boottrunktray/sidestep???
oh and also pps and silicon wiper.. anybody here done that soon?
