Yokohama A.Drive R1

Mechanic told Aron that wire mesh came out from my front rubber, went to tire shop to get a new front set.


My front set...holy shyt....


Boss suggested 2 brands to Aron, at the end Aron decided on this....



First Impression on R1:
Steering becomes lighter.....
Grip on dry road is great. 
Attack 90 degree 2 lane corner with 100kmh, tire screaming.
Haven't try on wet road yet.

Satisfying rubber !

Water Lost

Since the port and polished head swapped, there is a symptom every morning, which is spare tank overflow, but water level decreased in radiator.



Tried to bleed radiator, seek for leakage with pressure test, and change radiator cap, but no luck.

Sent into workshop, waiting for result.

Minor Relocating

Aron did a IACV coolant bypass, will change to shorter hose in the future.


And relocated a few things in my engine bay. Spot the difference! =D

Switching Fan Switch

Noticed the fan aren't kicking in while the coolant is hot in a/c off mode, so Aron did a small diagnose. First pop the hood, and remove the air ram for easier work.

CAUTION: PLEASE DO THIS WHILE THE ENGINE IS COLD FOR SAFETY


The fan switch located at the thermostat housing, right beside the bleed valve. Unplug the socket...


Use a paperclip......


and put it in the smaller hole....and turn on ignition...


The fan works!! Means the connection is fine.

So it might be faulty fan switch.

 Use wrench 22mm.


and remove the fan switch.



Bought a new fan switch.


Plug it back.


Fill up coolant, and test the fan. 

So far the fan doesn't kick in.......yet....
