if u gonna remain the same turbo u dont need a banana only a pussy needed hahahaha
unless if u want to change the turbo then yes banana needed,get a tial ori wastegate if u cant afford for turbosmart coz its mahal ler and the downpipe size shud be 30 - 35 mm

pick up = u can change the intake,TB to 70mm,ur current size is 60mm this makes a different

u could use banana eventhough u keep yr std snail
just weld the wastegate on your extractor/banana, thats all
u go to ijal exhaust or jian heng, their workmanship is marvelous.

if in jb..around 2-3k.some use dupont some kansai...
crystal/pearl/metalic depends on how deep is ur pocket....
charges depends on car condition-prev.color?color dead/fade?diff.color(dark to light and vise versa)
rust?
so better bring ur car to nearby sprayshop just to get a base quatation...share wit us ere..frm there we can help u.....there are so many sifus ere(not me)

 

[DanzEterna]

the paint, laquer etc...is cheap, the workmanship is expensive,
need to apply cement/putty & gosok, apply & gosok again till the surface is smooth...
last time my uncle had a compressor & spray gun, he used to have a kedai cat, now close down edi....i tot wanna pay the bangla rm50 to gosok my whole car & as well tape up the car before spraying..., the cement & spraying i sendiri buat.....can say the whole costs not more than rm500, if u wan pearl or diamond, add rm150 lor...........other ppl charge rm2k++ just for spraying outside.....if + diamond rm2.7k.......no wonder they untung alot.

 

[rakesh_v6]

oh okay.... pa lagi pi mabuk malam kasi bakar kedai lor... bis citer.. heheheh

 

[DanzEterna]

if mabuk & bakar kedai ar.......the the next day i make the headlines in the star..haha.

hi guys,

Need some advice from sifu out there.

Currently planning to upgrade to perdana EVO. My problem is my wife can't drive manual transmission car. So can I convert the transmission to AT gbox. Can the AT gbox handle the power from EVO engine?

 

[DanzEterna]

if u planning to get auto, get an RVR auto bro..
the youger bro of evo....but rvr only produces approx 220-240hp.
now RVR halfcuts are still cheap, auto below rm5k, if evo rm7.5k without bodyparts, 4wd tank, absorbers, dashboard etc......

 

[civic1533]

plan to buy car that is already converted. mostly perdana evo come with manual only.

found a few RVR/Perdana on mudah but not so nice condition. so thinking of buying a perdana/evo then change to a/t gbox. but afraid the gbox cant stand the evo power. even standard v6 engine the gbox give lot of issue. any tips?
