i just installed a hotbits suspension system called DT2 to my evo...installed it in speedworks...basicly the handling is superb...just to add to my evo performance, added a K&N air filter...

what do u guys use for servicing the evo? i.e. minyak hitam, transmission fluid, gear fluid and all the other fluid and what not...

How much you paid for the DT2?

Motul seems favoured among Evo owners. I wouldn't know. :rofl:

had my evo serviced by motul oil...done it in N1 racing in sunway...cost me almost 1k for full service...damn those motul oils are expensive...but i feel its worth it since you can feel the difference in engine performance...

+1 to gt auto sunway
just would like to share my humble opinion on servicing evos in sunway...tried and tested several workshop over there like N1 Racing, Kakimotor, JC Racing and last but not least GT Auto

N1 Racing
Bought several auto oils from N1, mostly motul...did full service here. But the thing i don't like about N1 is that their service garage is somewhere behind the factories...not sure bout the address, the mechanic from N1 brought me there.

Kakimotor
The services is good, fast and reliable. They even have their own spare part shop beside their garage. So it's easier to get your stuff.

JC Racing
This is the second shop i went to service my gt-a. First of all, the service was good...next they started using banglas mechanic to service evos. I use to service with the mechanic called botak, chinese guy and good service. But when they started using banglas to do the servicing, i felt reluctant to it with the banglas.

I came to this conclusion because i had an incident whereby when i had to service my minyak hitam, the bangla mechanic didn't know whether the oil is enough or not enough...for evos, u need at least 6-7 litres of lubricant...so, when the job is done, the bangla simply said that the minyak hitam is enough, as if he was the expert. I complaint to one of the sale rep in JC and told him that i don't like this bangla guy and would like botak to the servicing. The sales rep said that this bangla is good. I really doubt what he said.

GT Auto
Tried gt auto yesterday, met toby himself. Medical check-up for my evos. Would meet again with tobey tomorrow.

Maybe u guys have your own opinion u would like to share...

Hi.

My 4G92 cams already reprofiled by MatSpeed. I expect it will exceed Jun Stage 2 specs of 304.

I want to buy Honda Type R double valve spring. Boleh pakai or not and need any changes to the retainer kit or shim kit or not??? I just want my engine tahan high rev because once my car is out, I sure rev every hour.... :_:
