AvanT, just wanted to know where did you get the lightweight crank pulley for your Airtrek?

Plan to get one, but other than that I'm gonna keep my daily driver Airtrek Turbo as BPU as possible (having a GTO as a hobby car is expensive enough haha)

Hope you can let me know bro... I might also try asking the tuning shops around Sunway as well.

Thinking of getting a kevlar timing belt as well, should I just source from the shops in Sunway? or is there a specific shop that caters for airtreks here in KL? I visited one in Kinrara and saw at least 5 airtreks being serviced/rebuilt there.

Also, I might want to change the bushings on the lower arm bar and anti roll bars, has a dull thud whenever I go over bumps.

Any advice is appreciated, thanks!

Nice trek... looks like a wolf in sheep disguise. Is that E8 motor?

You can get the kevlar belts from the shop at Kinrara (if I am not mistaken, it's Ah Wah right?) Too many fake and immitations around, so you gotta be really careful.

Bushings can be changed. I think it'll cost around 800-1K if I am not mistaken. I've asked before.

Thanks, yea the shop in Kinrara is Ah Wah's shop, seems like the go-to place for airtrek owners hehe..

Thanks for the info regarding the bushing, appreciate it.

As for my airtrek's engine, I'm not sure whether its an evo 8 engine or evo 7... what I do know is, it's a second engine for this airtrek, the previous owner overheated the engine, so changed it.

By the way, is the Zeroone lightweight crank pulley worth buying? or should I go for the bigger and more expensive JDM tuner brands? (JUN, Tomei, etc etc..)

:biggrin:

If you have budget, Japanese is the best but locally made ones are fine too. Ah Wah used to sell some custom made last time but I think all sold off.

If anyone wants to learn how to reflash their Airtrek Turbo then I am prepared to assist with posting up my experience.

Get yourselves a Tacrix Openport 2.0 and ECUFlash and let's do some tuning :-)

It's draught season here. Water at the dam is critically low and water rationing at our household. But I was back hometown and I can't control myself but to shower her. It has been 5 weeks since her last shower. Now looking clean.

sport spring only ok.. change the shock absorber also ok.. this is actually depends on the condition of your current suspension. if still good, then can just change springs/coils. normally stock absorber doesn't work really well. in a long run, later u need to change absorber.. but then it all depends on ur BUDGET bro..

like me i change to HWL adjustable with special request to certain spring rate.. so it doesn't feel too stiff, but still street setup.. now the adjustable absorber need to do servicing as the absorber felt too soft.

Bro Miras, I no longer sell CF parts la but if you want, I can give you the contact to my distributor la.. hehehe... here is a close shot.

If you want comfort + lowered, get Ralliart shocks + springs. I've used Eibach Pro-Kit + original absorbers and XYZ Adjustables (damping and height) and now Ralliart, Ralliart is the best between comfort and look. If you want chopped look, get adjustables. I still have it, if you want, I cheap cheap sell to you no problem. Just that it's quite hardcore, hahaha....

Bro 4Gbanger, I added open pod filter lo... check my other thread!
