davidykhor

wahaha

what color is ur car ?

mine is red :P , no sunroof. interior wise, all cloth now, gonna wrap it with nappa leather as soon as i find someone with good worksmanship.

well if urs is red also the onlything that will differenciate us might be the rims :P

davidykhor

sure.

i just need to cross the road to get to klcc .
very near

but u may want to consider going elsewhere to yumcha, bad experience for me in klcc carpark, kena rear ended b4 cause idiot don't know how to drive slowly in parking, "his front all gone, my back a bit of scratches, okay la ..." , then kena scratch b4, then some idiot open his door and bang on my door causing dents

hate klcc carpark hehe.

maybe lets go midvalley and go sushi king ?

lennon

davidykhor

03' silver, auto, 18" rims, bought it from cahaya auto,cheras
another dealer in cheras got 3 rx8 sold (yellow, grey & dark green)
i guess everyone is buying new car for CNY like myself or maybe for valentine's day.

Thanks for the advice guys.
Anyone can give me Wangan's phone number?
Need to order the engine mounting cos the car has vibrating problems.

So the oil cooler is only necessary for tracking purpose, how about traffic jam?
I'm from Cheras and going to the city is always jam.

BTW, are there any other must do items?
Any of you guys compared workshop prices and work quality?
Need some recommendations.
If can accompany me there is even better. hahaha.
Lunch on me.

Actually i was thinking the turbo timer can help prevent me from turning the engine off when it is still cold. Got this info from previous posts that it will cause engine flooding. Please correct me if i'm wrong.

Thanks again.

davidykhor

when did u buy it ? not under warranty ?

jaii13

You don't have to worry about engine flooding. It won't happen if the engine is properly warmed up. Like theboy mentioned earlier, the fan switches on automatically when necessary.

jaii13

Safe enough to not endanger anyone including meself.

davidykhor

oh yah dudes, what kind of lowering spring recomended ?? the racingbeat one looks nice, not too low, but lazy to order cause usa -> kl freight is expensive. also what about swaybars ? where can i get some for the rx8 ?

davidykhor

lennon , the e-manage with the tc kit by default remove the speedcut or not ?

lennon

oil cooler is not for the use in track only, it oso helps in traffic jam.....

as for workshop, you don't have to be choosy about..... servicing job is easy, most shop can do it.... but if its regarding engine and mod, you have to get pro to do it.....

I can accompany you to wangan, but not this week...... i'm in japan, same as the two wangan bosses..... if you don't mind going yourself, I'm sure they give you good price...... they have stock for engine mounting now.....

turbo timer is true like what you say, it prevent flooding...

8ken8

Thanks for the fast reply guys.

To davidykhor/David:
Still haven't collect the car. I bought the car with the vibration in mind cos desperate to get it ASAP as i saw the 3 other rx8 sold off so fast. Felt like rx8 stock running low already and myself wanting a silver making it more limited. The salesman did mention he will send the car for touch up and tuning. Dont think that will work though. But quite confident that the mounting will solve the problem (fingers crossed).

To Jaii and Lennon:
Regarding the timer, i think it's a cheap item for safety in case my mum or dad uses my car and didn't warm it up properly. But worry it will waste too much petrol. Never has a timer myself. It can be turn on and off manually by myself inside the cockpit right?

To Lennon/Kean:
Most prob collecting the car next week. Took annual leave for next thu, fri and following mon for maintenance and drive around. Are you working or still studying? Free on weekend or weekday? I'll adjust my time to urs. Anyway, will call you after i've collected my car.

To Wangan:
Keep the engine mounting for me. Dont want my mum complaining me buying a vibrating car.

Thanks again.

theboy

david, i won't drive my car from sabah lo! haha! i will take taxi there. will stay around sungai **** on this business trip.

ken, i will be visiting wangan this coming saturday or monday. its my first time but i know where is it. wanna go together or meet there? i think its too troublesm to pick me up at sungai ****, its better we meet at sunway pyramid if u want.

davidykhor

actually u should have asked them to fix it, they should fix it for u

to begin with , u should have buy it from naza, naza provide 1 year warranty for all recond cars, i got mine there, despite everuthign people heard bout naza outside there, i think its not real, i bought a lot of cars from them before, no problems.

force the cardealer to fix it for u, they shouldn't give u a problematic one.

davidykhor

up to u

just call me, my time is quite free as long as i am not in meetings.

8ken8

To theboy(Benny),

i should be free this saturday. what time?
i can pick u up in sg **** and go to wangan together.
BTW, what's ur purpose going to wangan w/o ur car?
Buying something?
i still haven't got my car yet so nothing to do at wangan except "kepoh".
also be ur driver but u'll need to repay me with lots of good advice.

David, we'll let u know once the time is confirmed.

theboy

Hahaha i will reach there 2pm. call u when i reach there. I go there shopping for parts. lots of them lol!

8ken8

ok, will be waiting for ur call then.
