Rm8k Wira & Jazz GK5 ownership experience-A long way to go

[parakey]

Later got time will go and ask can it be weld back by add some metal plate.

Worst case might need to change the front frame I guess?

IMO, replace better than weld

 

[parakey]

Juz wanna ask is driveshaft is a common thing to rosak?
Driving my car few day and hear some weird noise while going through rough surface or those zebra yellow line.
driver side have sound kak kak kak kak kak while going through the yellow line.

The crack is likely the source of your noise

Actually, if can grind down to bare metal, see where the rust spread, need some rust prevention paint also, just spray inside, weldable paint too. If not, just cut and match, bend some good steel and weld.

Appears to be previously welded/repair. Better just replace outright. Not that expensive

Wira update

Done redrill the old hole and make a new tread pattern for the nut.
And went back ti kedai potong buy 2 rear crossmemver nut.
Juz to let someone who is going to chg the nut.
Front croessmember nut is long rear is short one. Because I don't know and go and buy the long one and cannot fit to to rear. Need to add washer to use until I bought the correct one and replace it. Hahahahahahha

So next thing is going to source a front frame & survey price for fitting it.

Yes, buying part is cheap. Welding it back is expensive AF. Around Rm500+/-

Is been a long time
Since my wira for is running fine now so I juz jump to my another car.
My Honda Jazz.
Was planning to mild mod abit ever since I bought the car.
But things didn't went what I had plan. So I had keep it stock for a long time. Only swap the original grill to a Mugen grill that was same as Japan Mugen spec & quad Led fog light (the old one broke so have chance to change the fog like I always wanted.
This is a 2014 second hand full spec car.
Bought it on 2018 and owning for 2 year now.

Inside my 2 year of ownership the car didn't have any issue. Juz regular oil change.
Juz few day ago replace a alternator belt that is worn out.

And what you see the picture is a header I always wanted to chnage. My friend planning to sell his City Gm6.5 to a Golf(rich guy,hahaha) so he ask he do I want to swap with my original header. Since both car same engine so is juz pnp only.
After changing it of course the car didn't few faster lahh. But....the jerkingness a lot speed is gone. And the car accelerate more linear.
So quite happy for the result. Was planning to swap the cat pipe also. The pipe that connect to the header one.

Where, how long does it takes, and most importantly, how much? :p

How much does it cost? Do you juz spray outside only or inside out?

 

[vr2turbo]

Normally to save cost, spray same color, so just spray outside good enough. But if change color best to spray inside also....

you better take out the player/hu and check to see if you have a short somewhere. EIther you have a grounding issue or your HU is going to rosak soon
