Great thread Shrivz...Isnt it amazing how the look of the car is lifted so dramatically just with a set of terrific wheels and tyres? So whats next on the agenda?

crazydiablo · 4th September 2007, 16:46

Hey congrats man, she must be sounding sweet. I have heard Riju's car, man thas just the right sound. Just simple and sweet.

Enjoy the car. Seeing these miles on the balenos am happy I plonked my money into the car.

superavi · 4th September 2007, 17:27

Congrats Shrivz. How's the sound now?
How about a video on youtube or a podcast on tbhp?

The alloys look cool. did Saifee have any 98 PCD Alloys?

congrats shrivz on the new ffe setup, whats your feed back on the sound level if ffe? is it normally noticeable or only above say 3k rpm. the cpops are a problem these days. since i am into occasional long drives higher sound level can become irrtating. how is the pickup, the wheel skid should tell this. i have to change my car exhaust setup soon, just thinking ffe or stock.
since car runs mostly on lpg in normal driving, i am nnot damaging the environment with cat con removed.

Yup, she sounds sweet alright! She's silent till about 2000 - 2500, then from 2500 - 4000 she gives a sweet tone, and beyond 4000, you can barely hear the exhaust! (I think this happens because the filter gives a louder growl than the exhaust beyond 4000 rpm.

@ Ravi: I dont know about 98PCD alloys, you'll have to ask at Saifee directly..

kpzen · 4th September 2007, 23:11

Congrats Shrivz.

@ Mahesh: The day I find some sponsorers! I'm broke now! Every penny of my earnings has gone into those 4 alloys!

@ Prajesh: Yup! they sure do! and handling has improved by leaps and bounds! my previous tyres were really pathetic, and moreover they were a wrong size! Huge tires of puny 5J rims!

Thanks for informing me about my mistake!
