Hi Green,

I'm not the right person to ask cuz i have'nt sent my car for servicing as yet. I was planning to sent to Links once it reaches the 2000km. Once i do have the pricing i will post it up.

thks zinzan

 

[cyilaw]

GT Auto just charge like others workshop for normal servicing.

 

[ZinZan]

Law, how's ur ride??? enjoying it?

 

[cyilaw]

ya, just install the meter and timer. now just thinking to get a alarm, but worry those ppl will messy my car wiring, still using the keyless entry come with that car. how about urs?

 

[ZinZan]

I've just put in clifford alarm, that's it so far. I was thinking of putting a timer but thought maybe later on. Is it critical?

 

[cyilaw]

ur alarm is 2 way alarm? still seraching for good alarm, how is ur alarm function? the timer may be not that important but the boost meter need for u to check its overboost or not. over boost will kill ur engine badly.

 

[ZinZan]

It's not a 2 way alarm. It has a anti-jacking function with the sensors on point of entry. It's a bit complicated needs getting used to.

ZinZan,

As a general information, can do me/we a favour?.

Can have a look at your Evo9 Custom Form JK69. Look under item (20) : 'Total Value CIF (M'sia). How much $$$ actual price stated there?.

And also Custom Form JK1. Under item (41) & (44). How much tax charged & paid?.

Just curious to know the exact RM price of the car in Japan , without tax & also the taxes paid!

Million Thanks.

Hi everyone,

Hello to u guys... am new here... n hope to get to know all of u as v got de same hobby - Evo!!

Let me intro myself a bit... Am driving E9 now... got it in May... was de 1st few 'lucky' owners to get it when only
ZinZan, knowing tht u got ur E9 too, rite? Good huh? de spec said 286hp @ 6.5k rpm n 40.8kgm @ 3k rpm... but according to lots of Mag. Editors, E9 oredi well over 300hp on stock engine!!! n as de torque come in pretty fast @ 3k rpm... de responsiveness of de E9 r 1 of de best cars I hv ever driven in...... what color u hv? Mine is white!!! :D

Cyilaw, hey u got a E8 MR? wow... tht's cool man... i told myself, if i cant get an E9 in May... i'll definately going for E8 MR... as it really looks cool to me... especially de dark grey 1... what abt ur?

Actually i started to get really crazy abt Evo is when they launched de E7.... but then i got no $$$ for it.... then i waited n waited until this yr.... finally my ULTIMATE DREAM come through!!! I was sleepless for many days as i was waiting my car to b cleared out from de dealer... hahaha.... Guess u guys must been through this as me....

Hi Storm,

The E9 been superb...... i hd same problem, could'nt sleep for days till i got the car. I was actually looking at E8MR, it was about last year. Before i could book it somebodyelse booked it. So waited for E9.

I wanted to join convoy to bukit tinggi but my car was still new damn sayang lar. Did u manage to go for that?
