hope u r ok now bro...think could it be due to infrequent exercise which why led to requiring a knee ops?

[Mivec9]

seems to me can fit as ours PCD is also 114.3.

 

brake pad wise not so sure but if u purchase brake pads only shd be in 20-30 bucks region per pair.

Just done Pivot Raizin Volt Stabilizer with 5 point grounding...indeed can feel difference after installation, can feel more stablilized idling, less engine vibration, better throttle..

 

Heard normal VS does not come with 5 point grounding cables, the one I did comes with it as a package.

Hi bro. Where did u hook up ur Pivot VS? Can PM me the price cos I'm interested to do if the price is right. Thx

 

Cheers

does simon have suzuki brake pads? if wanna change rotor might as well change pads...

[Mivec9]

Did it at poh seng @ selegie house, short street (near sim lim square)...guess wat 4 guys fix up for me in less 30 minutes.

[Mivec9]

yes he has brake pads...as for original suzuki brake pads, i doubt so...oem brake pads cheaper. but u can give him a call to check.

anyone knows where i can find auto meter gauges? not auto gauge = 'made in taiwan'.

auto meter = 'made in usa'..

 

and what is the thread size of the swift for the oil press/temp adaptor bracket to be fitted? think its the same size as the oil filter threads...

 

thx!

[Hoppe]

what's the diff between Taiwan and USA?

got some pics to illustrate?

[Mivec9]

u can try Mcwells...

[Yc86]

err... here r some pics..

 

actually autometer is more soothing to the eye

and has an impression of higher quality, accuracy, and more professional looking. no fancy colour changes or smoked screen stuffs.

 

not like i'm going to track or something...

just think that if wanna do further stuff to the engine then its better to monitor Ts n Ps so won't exceed it...

wah.. heard they chop up carrots pretty bad

 

also heard VDO-siemens gauges frm past threads, have yet to check them out at ayer rajah industrial

[Hoppe]

chio.

[Mivec9]

there are a few feedback on their prices...where u intend to check these out??

[Yc86]

i heard at short street near albert complex... concorde or something

 

but dunno if they sell autometer or autogauge.

 

VDO looks good too... n bout US$25

 

hehe.. if only can afford defi.. but in an old swiftie would be an overkill

[Mivec9]

short street ...then shd be poh seng liao

[Yc86]

Hi~

 

swiftie went on a diet today... lost bout 12kgs

 

removed the rear seat backing, rear seatbelts and the rear wiper... all up weigh 12kg

the rear seat bottom still stay, but i think can be removed too and replaced with some form of matting. that thing weighs bout 3+kilos i think

 

then, treated her to 2 5in bazooka bass tubes (2nd hand.. gift frm a fren ), and a lanzar (spelling?) 2ch, 400w amp (also 2nd hand).. gonna find some 2nd hand capacitors too

 

but all these were installed so that they are can be 'easily removed'. wires are all joined by connector sockets.. amp just pasted to floor, and bass tubes just dumped in the spare tyre compartment. estimate total weigh bout 5+kg so it's a 5+kg overall savings~

 

heard that for every 50kg off, u get an increase of 1bhp

[Mivec9]

wahz lucky u...btw...hope to hear u wiring them up for the bass in ur car
