If u concern about FC, its a 1500kg with 2L turbo automatic AWD SUV.. u cant expect to have FC like a 1.6L NA. But there is a way of making it "close" to 1.6L car FC's. By maintaining a good condition and stock condition of the car then reflash the ECU, u could get 450+- km per 40L of 95 RON. u could run better FC on highway if swap to Evo 789 parts. Overall, i had to say its a bit heavy car to tackle a hi speed corner but its a darn good sprinter on highway. with the 1.5 tonne weight, your 160-180kmh cruise feels like 120'ish kmh. and cruising at 120kmh, your RPM is 2k only.Been reading this thread for a while, honestly I'm thinking of getting one of this fat ATR . I've been hearing about the fuel consumption issues,but hmm lets put it aside first. Hows the maintenance for this car? I just need a turbo car for now, cant wait any longer, in need of some power lol.
if you have an evo 8 brembo, then the minimum dimension is 17" rim. the offset have to check with the design of the wheel spoke. if the spoke are more curvy on the outside, then a 42 offset is the minimum.. if the spokes are more to the inside, it should be 30 min. if im not mistaken, rims like rota 17" will only fit if u have a thin spacer. better get the rim tested at someone's car..Hi guys! I've bought a set of 4/2 bbk from an evo 8 and now also having problem with wheels offset fitting. can offset 50 clear the bbk on airtrek?
how to strenthen our GB? got company in singapore that reinforce it?it's a 5 speed gb. Auto transmission can be strengthened with a rebuilt kit! should hold 400whp and up.
hahaha, pandai main. Will just use the stock one for a while.dude, nice ride.. rare lips. but u r missing the grille.. i hav gialla grille if u want..
Damn... Really sorry to hear that, condolences to his family. Very devastating indeed.I received a sad news last Saturday about my old big potato. The new owner and the car passed away in a car accident near KLIA 2 months ago. Worse, it wasn't his fault because he stopped before entering the KLIA big roundabout and a truck struck him from behind, pushing the car into the roundabout where another truck hit it from the side and ran over the Airtrek. New owner passed away and the car was total loss.
Though it's not my car anymore, but I really did not expect the car to end it's life that way. I have spent countless happy moments, sweat and effort into building it from completely stock to the day I sold it. Each piece of carbon fiber parts were 'first piece' from the mold as I worked with my carbon fiber friend to custom made them.
It's really sad. RIP to the owner and my beloved big potato.
PS: anyone heard about this news? I can't find it over the web.
