how many liters is a quat? in that case how many bottles do i need to buy for my k12?
[b]think our car marchie needs abt 4 1/2 bottles.........Royal Purple synthetic oil
Royal Purple 10W30 Motor Oil.... 1.8 liter??? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i just read my owner's manual it say that we need around 3qt of oil,
the recommended SAE viscosity is 5w-30 how come i see karman change to 10w-30 leh
and also dunno if the RP ATF do anything good to the gearbox jecking problem....[/b]
1 bought 4 bottles (quarts) and TC fed 3.5 bottles into my March, that makes about 3.3L.
i last used 10w-40 thaz becos the TC con man "strongly recommended" his Motobest oil which came only with 10W-40.
btw royal purple's website recommends 10w-40 for "first time switching from mineral oil to synthetic" -
cool huh?!!Originally posted by RuStiE76:March Club featured in Issue #33 of Hotstuff
everyone here should rush out to grab a copy for collection!
see if we can get other car magazines to feature the Marchies again, hope we are not too old for that.
btw i think it is the "Spirit" of the Marchies that differentiates us from the rest of the car clubs.
many of the rest of the clubs focus on the hardware, ie. the car, to them they are just pieces of cold metals and plastics.
our focus include the "software", what our Marches enable us to do, makes us to be, the March owners are called "Marchies", people see us differently, hip, trendy, bold, exciting, different, against the norm...weird...or whatever...
our Marches are not just a car, it makes a statement. -
Lennie,
The manual will only benefit stock cars and stay within factory specs.
The folks here, believe in factory specs... more ! After all is writen in black and white...! Writen as Ron 95 min... ! we can't beat that right...
Like some of us chose to go for a little more power, chose to enhance their car with some basic tuning...!
I agree with you, V power or 98.. there is a differece. . Old skool teachings higher octace give us some difference. For a few cents difference, i wont go for ron 95.... I m using min 98 / sometimes V power, after all is our own car.. i will feed it with good stuff... wont use 95 !! hahaha. For V power can feel the difference..! how much difference is also depends on our driving habits and city driving or highway..!
(I suggest all of you listen to Eric...! - knock knock knocking on heaven's door, may be can hear the knock sound ) hahahaha
Good feedback to the rest, tks lennie.Originally posted by lennie:Hmmmmmm, like that confirm use diesel la....
"most cases, using a higher octane gasoline than your owner's manual recommends offers absolutely no benefit. It won't make your car perform better, go faster, get better mileage or run cleaner. Your best bet: listen to your owner's manual."
i will still use higher octane no matter what.....
cos definately can see/feel/smell more power.
This high octane or lower octane is old skool lah, it has been going on for the longest time, so why bother? do not use anythin lower than ron 95 and if you want gain(s) use high octane...period...
How does knocking or pinging sound like..
it sound like a "Doorbell chime" ting-tong, ting-tong.....or wuuuuuu, eeeee wuuu,yaaaaaaaa
hehehhehehhehehehe -

Wah...so cute, now its missing a folding pinic table n chairs and a cooker !!! will it drain most of ur battery life?? -
Not mine. I bought from TC so it's in horribly translated English. Only PI comes in Jpa which i believe only apply to Vandal & faded M.Originally posted by KingMariot:I am also using Ron 92 after the fuel prices escalate and has been trying out various octane, so far not hearing the ding dong ding dong sound that Lennie mentioned and definitely not hearing a donkey in the engine, yoh bro you sure the ding dong is not the yen kong dragging on the floor
Yoh WOF, was it you that mentioned that your manual is in Jap? Maybe got difference, your JDM lah
Karman, now i remember. Yes it says recommended for more power. Started out with 95 but escalating price forced me to look at cheaper alternative. Since our marchie can take a cheaper grade, decided to take the plunge. BTW i'm no petrol head, can't feel any difference. Honestly not the slightest bit in performance but i do feel my wallet feel a bit heavier. -
Yo Kamen
I wont be able to make it for the RP talk (yes, gonna miss it again, sigh...) on 24 sept as I am flying off to Tokyo that day, so pls count me out. (Vandal & Toadie, me didnt forget ur order of the marchie RC.)
Also, anyone got good recommendation of workshop who can do good knocking and painting job within reasonable prices? My babe got disfigured at the left back door as well as the panel above the wheel... due to my own carelessness...
So far i asked ard, it's abt $100-150 per panel... but becos I dunno these workshop pple, dunno if they can be trusted to do a good job or not... *sob*sob*... any good recommendation? pls help...... -
Have any one seen the March convertible? It looks very nice, but any chance it will be available in SG?
March not undergoing any changes for 2006? -

(not being rude)
ideally, its better to read the thread(s) to understand the specs of the car if not go test drive it yourself to get a feel.Originally posted by lightningrune:I do not want to read through the entire thread here, that's why I posted the question? -
Performance: well, it depends on what kind of performance you are after, ideally, its better to mod if not you feel "jack-shit" power on the mid and high rev..Originally posted by lightningrune:Hi,

BUT it is a rather "torque" car, meanin you will definately be the first to "zoom" off once the lights turn green cos of its weight to power ratio but i can't say thereafter, so mod will be ideal....what kind of mod? exhaust, airfilter, spark plugs,ecu tunning.
FC: stock is good but after mod, i am clocking in at 8-9k a litre and of cos subject to whether you are "heavy footer" as usual.
Handling: this car feels like its going to "turtle" when its running on stock suspension and wheels(165/70/14) so ideal you should lower your ride and upgrade the wheel size before you play corner etc etc, and if running on stock, i will say good luck to your arms when you are planning to drive to KL cos the handling sucks cos the steering is light as well.I hope you know what i mean.
Honestly: if you are just a point "A" to point "B" person and not care about interior looks blah blah blah; and if you can afford the cash then go get a Honda Jazz. -
The current price for a comfort model is 55k ! You should call Tan Chiong for assistance in price and etc...! If you want to be different, wait for the 1.5L ! might be here ! Now they are selling off, so call "clear stock" for the 1.4L model...!Originally posted by lightningrune:Hi,

Average FC, it depends on city driving or highway ! I take a mid..! is abt 14k/m per L. Is very subjective topic.. ! And your questions are very general, so we can only share general information.
You can help us and be specific with your quires. Lennie is "our tech adviser", i can read from you posting regarding performance...! Lennie can assist you. I guess asking you to read the whole forum is tough...! just post your quires and be more specific... we can help..! tks..! -
