Not sure how bad is town driving in Sabah, over here when I pump full tank, can run 370~410km, I already complaint and change so many things (valve clean, throttle body clean, thermostat replacement, change air-cond compressor, fuel filter replacement) hope to improve FC but all in vain.

However, my baby's FC for highway driving is superb, can get RM0.11/km when fuel price at RM1.42/l.

Vk9, you should take my engine to improve your FC lah. ha...ha...ha...

Hopefully, after 2.5l engine transplant, I can get even better FC (my mechanic ensure me can get at least 500km for full tank, just wait and see....)

yes vk..its quite bumpy when the car is slow n goin thru on uneven road. this is due to the fact im using firm settin on my Konis. so its like adjustables...but on highways, its really nice n firm. wanna use adjustable like dream coz im want to be lowrider just like my signature A32...damn...look so much nicer!!! currently, my tires' distance from body is around 3 fingers...

 

[Lawcc]

where is the fuel pump located btw?

why you think is due to fuel pump? could it due to your big size tyres? According to peter, he just transplant engine kosong, without ecu also got significant FC improvement leh...

Anyway, i have a list of 80++ chop-shop's contacts and addresses, if interested can share with you...

I would say normal la....I'm at about 0.19/km now.

My FC

- Town 5.91km/L, 0.169L/km or RM0.257/km
- Highway 7.46km/L, 0.134L/km or 0.201/km

vk9, can say it's no the bumpy side. But not bumpy till my mom complains that type. So far, famiy members ride in my car did say anything about bumpy yet...only my father complains about being too low and keep scratching my the bumper when parking in they house.

Maybe only after one test out my car only can tell. But I'm sure it's on the bumpy side as I'm currently on 16" rim 55 series tyres.

I'm also getting around RM0.18 per Km. It's about a 50/50 split between highway and city and that's with driving very lightfooted. Think it's due to my heavy wheels :( .

how much u want to get rid of it??

regarding adjustables..... is it the one that u can adjust the height inside the car (like imported pajero, driver can set the abs to soft, medium and hard inside the car) or u need a mechanic to adjust it for u??

Thanks.

ong, can take a photo of the spring?? can it fit A33 without mod??

btw, what u means by manual type?? how to adjust it?

 

[ongteckweng]

nah...cant fit A33 for sure.
use a specific tool. can be adjust up n down. this is where the spring level is adjusted.

 

[vk9]

dream... from ur domain... the green things (which i presume is ur adjustables Tein)... is it inclusive of spring and absorber??

sorry.. i am not good in this kind of things.. hope u can get what i am trying to say...
