Don't use super in your Swift Sport. Saw an unlucky soul filling super into their red swift sport last week (well as I pulled in to the station, they just finished filling up and was removing the RED pump nozzle thingy). The SSS needs 98 RON fuel, and 95 RON MINIMUM. 95 = PREMIUM! Read the label on ...

Do diagonal rotations on the Swift Sport (my 2c). The front left tyre wears out faster than all the others (due to the open diff and the 'box being on that side perhaps?), and will cause the car to pull to one side. If doing a diagonal rotation, remember the OEM tyres on the Sport are unidirectional...

^^Why not buy a used Swift Sport auto? Might run you a bit less, and it might be more down your alley in terms of sporty-ness.

Not sure if this is a repost. Looks like hopes of a 1.4 twincharged engine may have been shattered. http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/wp-content/uploads//2011/08/Suzuki-Swift-Sport.jpg The next-gen Suzuki Swift Sport will debut at the 64th Frankfurt Auto Show on September 13. Compared to the standa...

Karim, any thoughts on Optimum's new OptiCoat 2.0? I'm an ONR user myself...albeit, not a huge fan of it. For folks who don't know....it's a PERMANENT paint coating. it doesn't wash off or anything. the ONLY way to remove it after it cures, is by significant polishing. Also, on the Mohs hardness sca...

Looks like the 2011/12 Ceratos are gonna be equipped with the new 140 ps 1.6L GDi engine (along with the 6 speed auto), that Kia showed in the new RIO at the NYAS IIRC.

Sounds pretty decent.

^^Saw the same machine yesterday on the highway.... Carrera S it looked like to me (badging that is....well, from what little I could see

)....but I can't be sure.

BTW there was a black (LHD) 996 turbo that passed like 30 seconds after....might have made for an interesting sight next to the S.

^^Well it sounds like since the engine is properly built now (as opposed to the old one being on it's way out) you should be getting a better feel of what the car can do with that turbo setup.

Did you check ADAH for the PS pump? Even if he doesn't have it, he may be the guy to get it for you.....

Picked up a set of Sumitomo HTR Z III 's yesterday (not to be confused with the ZII). MPS class.......and it still worked out cheaper than having to buy some of the other locally available Max Perf Summer (MPS) offerings, like the ContiSportContact 3 (@ Laughlin & DeGannes). Will post my thought...

Most people don't maintain the things properly, or know about them.....e.g. I met a dude once who was complaining his 8 wasn't working properly cuz it was burning oil (hence it was for sale).

I can't figure why the lower rev limit though.

Didn't the series 1 SSS (M/T) limit @ 6800? The series 2 went up to 7200 if memory serves.

As a side note anyways......and ditto on the compression ratio.

i read that the super we get is not actually 92 ron.

Who said that? And what proof / tests / experiments did they carry out to prove that it is NOT 92 as stated?

^That's what the GT2RS is there for. Besides, isn't Porsche still self-owned (I can't recall)? If so, they HAVE to make mainstream cars like SUV's, in order to keep afloat. Besides, Porsche has had a fascination with making V8 powered cars (remember they aimed to have the 928/944 coupes etc lineup b...
