Myvi SE/Extreme 1.5 modifications

[aranny2001]

Its not a ready made spec :) I've ask before in the PJ sect 14 P2 showroom, they can custom it with RM 2k extra for the multimedia kit ;)

oh i see... thx for the info bro, really appreciate it:wavey::proud:

Best bang for buck are the UR tower strut and rear sway bars. It makes a huge difference to the Myvi's handling. Brakes are decent for stock machine. Next will be new shocks and wider tyres. If you are on auto, no point trying to get more power unless you have a lot to spend. MT is most fun!

front lower arm, dsport.. no side bars.. dsport strut tower bar..stock suspension..

driven by a lady who drives a stock myvi everyday... do 180 degree turn going up ramp that she drives there very very often.. outcome is she say the myvi with the bars..less wobbly and better control around the corners. more grounded, at the same speed compared to her own 100% stock myvi..

so.. significant difference. since its tested by a normal a-b lady driver.

which bars are these? I only understood the front tower strut.

forgot to mention, the car with bars also had a toyota passo racy arb.

 

[cvkit17]

[ixeo]

The super metal clutch disc and clutch cover metal spec adds up to 1.5k. if you're serious get in touch with me.

dsport and cheap don't really go together. UR gives you best bangs for bucks. dsport front tower bar is rm600.. UR only rm110...

but you get what you pay for

I have no issues with UR products. Just that they are heavy! I want strong and light. RM600 for that piece of metal + a brand name chop is ridiculous. What is the difference between UR and Dsport? I've never seen either one before.

I saw before D-sport front tower structure bar in Advan Racing at Seremban. It is light compare with UR bar but not much if it is front tower structure bar. But the material is different, D-sport is using carbon fiber (not the bolt lock point area). The D-sport rear anti roller bar is very light compare to UR rear anti roller bar. D-sport stuffs very expensive!

 

[tIANcI]

For ARB it does not matter if hollow or solid. Important is the material because the force is torsional. Lighter and stiff is better. Hence the really good ones are hollow.

before anybody comes up with smarty pant remarks, think of how the entire lower arm assembly works, how it moves and flexes, then look at the picture.

one is called Malaysia boleh and one is called engineering.

Ixeo ... For us who are not so smart can you please explain a bit. Then we can learn more. thanks!

Think which part will move, and which part that doesn't move but is directly connected to the part that will move.

For example, strut tower bars are not installed to the moving part, it braces the part that's not supposed to move but IS connected to the moving part - the coilovers. Objective is to ensure the parts that's not supposed to move continue to stay that way.

The lower arms move. Look exactly where the UR bar is bolted on to, and compare both.

The key is the mount points. And you can see its drawn out by a kind gentleman (not me).

Another example is this piece of garbage

Is the point supposed to move? Or not? If its supposed to move why are you bolting the left to the right? LOL. A anti roll bar is not that thick and its designed to flex to a certain degree.. instead they came up with this..
