mrhan1982 4th Gear July 9, 2017 Share July 9, 2017 Hard is an overstatement. Soft and flimsy is a more fitting description. Lol. I must say the dashboard is quite sturdy though despite dated. Bro, was that in the past? I was there recently and there is a returned car to do rectification and the boss honoured it leh. Hmmm... Bro. Did you experience any significant noise reduction when changed to primacy? I assume its st3? The primacy 3 I had is.m not st3. St is made in Thailand for local climate. The without st is for European climate, in short parallel import. Michelin and Bridgestone in terms of comfort and noise totally heaven and earth ... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subaru don't have that much R&d $ to create or manufacture so many different engines at the same time. So if same cc and power should be same engine.

Icecube187 2nd Gear July 9, 2017 Share July 9, 2017 May i know what brand/model is the stock tyre for fna? Yokohama Geolandar 225/60/17 Odd size tire with very limited replacement choices. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drainwater 1st Gear July 9, 2017 Share July 9, 2017 I think no more FXT from Sep 17 because it us not Euro 6 compliant and LTA requires all petrol cars to be Euro 6 from 1 Sep 17 onwards. Harrier Turbo is Euro 6 so will be the car of choice for many families going forward. MY17 Forester in SG as well as EU should be from Japan. Euro 6 came into force in EU from Sep 2014. Our XT should be euro 6 as well then since it is still the same SJ engine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Newkid, Provided getting the COE but my booked FXT will be in Oct/Nov and one bro mentioned last order arriving in Nov/Dec. This should then not be because of Euro 6 compliant but the VES w.e.f. 1 Jan 2018 which Harrier Turbo meets (and perhaps why response of same 350Nm differs): https://www.lta.gov.sg/apps/news/page.aspx?c=2&id=08685840-d664-4713-9ccb-96dcd8936d08 Cheers, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrhan1982 4th Gear July 10, 2017 Share July 10, 2017 Thanks for the advice bro. I have been using the st3 but just wonder how it perform on a heavier suv as always tried it on lighter cars.For primacy 3 on fxt, u can just simply pump 230kpa all round when cold. It will ride almost like a magic carpet despite the slightly softer side walls compared to latitude sports. U can pump 240-250 kpa for slightly lesser body roll but can be kinda bumpy. I'll probably go back to primacy 3 after my current Pirelli cinturato balds... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoEman 1st Gear July 11, 2017 Share July 11, 2017 For FNA - checked with Bridgestone Singapore on their new Alenza 001 tires and other suitable for the FNA We are stuck and have no other much limited choice for that size??? Below is official reply: <<< After verifying, we regret to inform you that the 225/60 R17 is not available in any of our tyre line-ups. You may have to return to your OE tyre manufacturer if you need to get your tyres replaced. We will not be recommending any changes to your tyre specifications as any change may potentially affect the comfort level of your ride, performance of your car on the road, safety, etc. Thank you.>>> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also lost in the govt's implementation. http://www.businesstimes.com.sg/transport/new-emission-scheme-expected-to-lift-car-prices-dealers-scramble-for-specs Both FNA and FXT are already Euro6. FXT will be in C2 VES band while FNA will be B (but FNA need to submit PM data in July 2018).That's my understanding. http://www.nextgreencar.com/view-car/59803/subaru-forester-2.0i-xe-lineartronic-petrol-automatic-6-speed/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
