Hey Guys,

I was thinking that we should meet up once a week just to talk about our cars and discuss other things. Give me your feedback on what time and day in the week you are free.

As for me, I'd rather meetup on a weekday like Tuesday or Wednesday about 9pm onwards.

So reply to me about it and I will set up the next meeting.

Cheers

Marcus

i should be able to come. just got my car serviced at NAZA today for my first service. they took out RM 150 for labor because it was a courtesy service from them. anyhow, this is what they've changed -

1) engine oil - used MOTUL MINERAL - 10w30 - naza service guy said this was recommended by Mazda Japan - apparently it doesn't burn up so much oil like the rest.

2)Gear oil & LSD oil. I think they use pennzoil for this

3) rotor skimming - RM 55 - my rotors no longer squael...(fingers crossed)

The bill came up to RM 315 for all the oil and parts EXCL labor (which was free).

Additional info i found out... my catalytic converter's malfunctioning. apparently, after much idlying in the warehouse, something inside rusted and it's not working well. they're ordering a new one for me, which could take up to 45 days. i'm thinking of REMOVING it totally and replacing it with some mid pipe. What do you guys think? you think it's ok to remove the CAT?

How many Km have you done on your car? Still thinking of wat kind of gearbox oil and engine oil will be smooth for car on the next service. Please keep me updated.

Thanks

Hello all,

The meeting tomorrow is on. I will sms everyone to attend.

Woot woot, the workshops here would be quite packed with cars if you don'y make a booking early. There would be no point for you to wait for 2 days to get the car done. If you want, next time message us early and we will book a space for you to service the car.

Cheers
