More upgrades for standard MiVeC 1.6

JBSwagger — Sat, 07 Jun 2014 14:03:56 +0800

I have recently upgrade to 1.6 MiVeC engine which is still stock when doing engine swap.

Seems to me it cannot outrun those standard Viva's and Maimee with large exhaust or myself is overweight. Therefore I got some questions below

1) They said can mod to 1.8 MiVeC therefore what is the mod need to be done? Change the head (got 1.8 MiVeC head?) or block? But change block means I have to register with JPJ again right? And the block is from the G93 right? If change to 1.8 do I need a new ECU and what other things to make it function normally? I just want to be sure because still abit of confuse when they said can mix and match engine block and heads to get 1.8 MiVeC.

2) If modding to 1.8 is leceh, what are the upgrades can be done to this stock 1.6 MiVeC to give better pickup or more power. Can help me to list down what can be done and the price please? I used to own 1.5 VDO shitbox so I and not to sure what can be done on this upgrade engine.

JTX 1000

How good is this oil? Sound good but the company is so unknown to me.

Got vids in Youtube of it showing how well it lubes the engine and prevents friction and shizz.

W50 is the main concern, isn't that kind of thick?

FB everywhere you see this being advert and dealers needed. Got any experience in using this oil for your engine? Seems pricey and it claims to go up to 10K before oil change.

15" rim design for Waja

JBSwagger — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 21:49:21 +0800

I need some ideas for my Waja in terms of rims. I want to use 15 inch ones since ori Waja ones are that size. Any good design?

I have 2 quite new ones which are Goodyear Assurance in 60 series but i want to use 55 series (is this ok?) for all 4 later on. I have the other 2 which are in need of change but i want to use 55 series now and put them in front (60 series in the back and 55 series in the front, any problems?).

I don't care Taiwan, Japan, ROTAs, Italy as i just want rim design ideas.

Help me in rim design choosing please by posting pics?

Engine bay wet

JBSwagger — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 19:22:03 +0800

Today weather like !@#$%^....rain rain rain until some part of road got slightly flooded due to road side drainage like !@#$%^&.

Water unsure how deep but agak2 (around / nearly 1 feet) but i just drove into the flooded area at roundabout since there is no choice turning back and all cars had to do it.

Engine didnt die. At a next part of a road, there was a similar situation but this time on coming vehicle I saw a C22 got stuck because it had it's double signal on. I hesitated for a while but than i also went ahead since the water i see is quite similar to the previous roundabout depth but engine didn't die but some belt (I think aircond) was making loads of noise after this past (the first pass at roundabout the aircond belt or some belting got make noise) At this moment my house was not far away so i reach home safely.

Worried I straight open the engine bonnet and found some place in the engine got wet with some water marks like drops of water on the engine head, the fuse box, air intake box plus piping to the intake plus some fuel injector got water also.

So i want to ask, is there any damage being done?

P/S The car is a Promitsuwira 1.5 standard EFI and my car is riced lowered but to around 1.5 fingers for the front between tyre and fender.
