IMHO, if u r getting a sport cars, why worry abt FC n maintenance? usually its a lot easier to buy a performance car but maintenance its another matter.

most of these rides r not for everyday driving so ppl dont think about FC n costing to maintain them.

but still, will provide some input for u:
Mitsubishi Evo 9 (Ron 97)
City driving: rm100/320km
Highway: rm100/400km
Maintenance: rm350 per oil change every 4-5000km (fully syn Motul)
Major service (all fluids): >rm1,000 every 20,000km (depends on what kind of oil u use)
Brakes: rm1k (front n back)

actually i just wanna compare... just wanna know how much diffrent for those sports car, i am getting a RX8 soon, bt alots of ppl told me that the car is thirsty.... so i just wanna know how much diffrent if compare to others... btw, my friends going to buy a Nissan GTR35... he wanna know the FC also...

Re: can any one share with me the fuel compression and maintenance for sports car?

get the evo seanzer, the rx8 wont satisfy u as the evo.

i dont think u need motul everytime, there r better lubricant out there dat are much cheaper then motul ie eneos 0w-20 (the same as toyota 0w-20 and honda's, fyi) is a better oil but is cheaper and has a longer OCI, not to mention better performance and better fc.

i dont mind driving an evo everyday, lol

Re: can any one share with me the fuel compression and maintenance for sports car?

evo? lolz... i am using for daily drive. thats why prefer auto car, evo performance for manual car. anyway good sharing... thx bro...

anyone driving rx8 b4 here?
nissan R35 with 3.8 should be "makan minyak" than others 2000cc or 3500cc right?

RX8 is a Rotary Engine (RE) car, that's why it is so called 'thirsty'.. although it is a 1.3 cc car, but it can produce more than 200 bhp.

Re: can any one share with me the fuel compression and maintenance for sports car?

u alredi driving an evo? lol

y the heck wud u wanna have an rx8 then? for daily commute? i dont understand u rich people, haha..

how about getting an iswara, which wud handle as good as any rx8 (wit suspension mod of course, lol) and gives about 100km of distance for a mere 10hengget (lightly tuned, lol), does a 240kmh top, and costs 20times cheaper then the rx8. i'll accept a switch-over for dat evo of urs, hehehehehe.. how wei? ohh, u want an auto je ker?

but, seriously, the 350z wud give u better fc if compared to the rx8, if driven sensibly lah.. the only downside is the maintenance, which i don think u'll have any problem wit

Re: can any one share with me the fuel compression and maintenance for sports car?

if he can sustain the road tax + insurance for the 3.5 litre 350Z, then no problem go for it. But later don't come and ask how much is the road tax + insurance for the list of cars above that time

haha.. .i know well about the insurance. lolz... road tax..i think i am okie.. coz 3.5. not much diffrent with my current makan minyak honda accord 3.5 also...

Re: can any one share with me the fuel compression and maintenance for sports car?

the 350z has very low maintenance comparing to Evo or other performance cars. the cons of course r the roadtax n insurance. the VQ engine is very reliable.

 

[xtremeleo]

low maintenance compared to the evo? it uses more oil then the evo iirc, more plugs, and harder to change the parts because of the tight spaces

 

[ongteckweng]

yes...even with more plugs n engine oil, they last longer coz evo has very hot engine. my friend is driving the Z so i can compare. the Z33 engine bay looks cramp but its not hard to work with. u should c the boxer engine of a STi.

 

[xtremeleo]

thanx a bunch ong

when u choose to buy a sports car just be prepared to start paying more for most things.

thats about it.

I drove an RX-8 type E auto b4. The response is abit sluggish and is not something that i think of. Mayb its an auto i don't know. Anyway for highway cruising was not a bad experience, quite smooth but abit fuel thirsty lar. That time fill up full tank about Rm 108 like that (price that time was still rm 1.92 per litre) to penang it left a fraction bit only . Scary !!
