After working back home and.....
Car part arrived!!!!
Order on 29 Oct received today quite fast.

Tomorrow will go to my workshop to swap my disk rotor & full set of control arm.
Regarding lower arm, the correct way of tightening the bolt is to do it when the car is at its rest position and not when the arm is extended to its lower position which most shop does as its easier to access when the car is jacked up.

i've seen worst...all thats left are just the backing plate. Best part is how the owner describe the issue 'aku brek brenti je tp ade bunyi'.

Anyway, better to check the condition of yr disc if its got too much groove or too thin or already got super high lip.

Just odd that you didnt notice when you bought the car. Btw, is your company mobile? You mentioned driving it back
When bought the car it didn't have any sound. And the freaking bbs rim design is hard to see the rotor & pad. I hate the wheel so much omg.
I work at Construction site. They have a Nissan Frontier since I don't have car so I juz drive back.Hahahaaha

Serious? Previous owner drive without problem or he/she park the car only. ?
The owner is much toward the ricer part hahahahaha. He only focus on upgrade the sound system & the interior of the car only. 1st time U go and check the car is below a tree with a lot of leaf on it.
Now the car is hell nicer to drive compare the 1st time driving.

Sadly, u can't. it'll cost a lot to swap oso iinm. EDITS: after some research, reason is the 4 speed auto uses transmission control unit which is not compatible with the siemens ecu. maybe u can ask your mech if it's doable. if can, do install an atf cooler for the 4 speed auto.

swap 4g92 or 4g93 single cam jer. if got extra can go for 4g93 dohc, and BOT after that. hehe

Survey before.
Half cut 4g93 1.8 soch cost around RM4800
Installation RM1500
Total RM6800 is quite some money there.....
Even if I swap it they don't makan your old engine & gearbox is quite pain in the axs. Also need space to store it & sell it. I dunno why Johor halfcut quite mahal.

Bro KHNG940413, if you are contemplating engine/gearbox change, I have to ask you what's left of the old car which you havent replaced. What's left?

* Alternator
* Steering rack
* Drive shafts
* Power steering pump
* Exhaust system

What else ?
