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

[vr2turbo]

yes,quite alot of white smoke
Me friends thought my car is burning engine oil. Need to drive abit aggressive to let all the smoke out.

I never knew there is a groundingfrom the battery to the chasis.Fail for me hahahhahahaha

Grounding from battery to chassis is the main one. The cable from engine to chassis grounding is much smaller.....lol

Another thing I found out after changing to 16 inch rim
While going around 90~110km/h on the road suddenly uneven the tyre will scrap the fender abit abit lah.... I know is due to lowering spring or the travel of absorber is not enough.
But....ouch...my plan also consider to chg a set of adjustable ( Premium P6 adjustable is my consideration). In the mean time,drive slower I guess.
Hahahahahaha

Your new rims offset must be more, since you did not change to wider tyres. Probably need to knock in you fender slightly.....

Yes, roll fender is the one tyre shop use to roll (if they have). If we DIY is knock with hammer......hahhahahhahahhaha

While cornering I hear abit scraping noise.So send to shop and check and this happened. The right side of my absorber mounting is rosak. Baru guna 1 tahun rosak already. I thought silicon type should last longer.Hahahahhaha

maybe the quality of the silicone used isnt the best? silicone if keras kind, subject enough force onto it and it will give

You could camber your fronts a bit more in, or use a slightly narrower tyre to stretch the tops of your tyres inwards.

After I change the absorber mounting and go back to the same road. It didn't scrap anymore. So.....my guess is due to absorber mounting.

Yes,maybe the quiality isn't good enough. Since I change back to ori one should be fine for the moment.

That flashing red light. If not mistaken its illegal to use as brake light. Still its much better in term of safety as it captures the attention of the rear driver. Cheap ones does not last long esp the plastic lens.

Not too sure abt LED headlights too. My bro did a cheap HID on his Iriz. What i can agree is that whiter lights relaxed our eyes. It feels less tiring when driving at night. However as with any whiter lights, its useless when the road is wet and dark.

Those pedals sure look nice. Make sure u test it with wet shoe or sandals or whatever it is u wear when driving. Solid metal pedals have tendency to allow our feet to slip.

Anyway, happy birthday bro.
My birthday is almost every month where i buy this and that tools to add to the 'collection'. Last 2 -3 month was packed with birthdays....deep impact socket, O2 sensor socket for Campro, cordless impact wrench, cordless impact drill, wobbly impact adaptor, dash cam, etc.

The bodykit come with this triangle brake light as stock so I think is ok?( Correct me if I am wrong)The old one masuk air so I chg to this.Hope can last longer. Original mugen one cost a bomb.
My previous light are Hella bulb type 5000k although is white but not bright enough in dark. The Philips one I bought is better to me lah.Is better then the Hella one. In the dark it really help me to see clearer (also for me lah)
The pedal is bigger that is for sure.Nicer to step on.

The brake light is okay, as bro. gunnerzz mentioned is the flashing that is illegal......

Happy Belated Birthday bro!
Your tail light bodykit doesn't looks like Modulo. If flashing most likely those OEM bodykit that fitted with flashing 3rd brake light.

IMHO, i hate those 6k LED headlights. It will blind my eyes from the opposite direction due to my astig :-P

This car is fitted with the Mugen bodykit come as option back then(If I am not wrong).
I think is due to the angle issue causing the opposite direction get blind. Need to adjust so won't blind them lah.Hahahaha

I know aftermarket had alot of intake system for Jazz. But usually is for L15B series not L15Z in malaysia.
After few year there is quite alot of Malaysia brand popping out to make air intake system for L15Z Jazz.
So is quite well engineer and some is very straight foward design. Hahahahaha
I was consider one of these in the future but I was still quite hesitate

Sending my car to service,also try out the oil lubricant flushing machine.After service mechanic told me that my stabilizer link is rosak.
So……went and source some new part for the car lah. The result is went with all Muteki lower arm and stabalizer link and also bushing. After changing no more weird clunking noise and more stable.
