Ignorance manifests in so many ways . . .

[turbo_beast369]

JUS4SHO, thanks...do you have access to a parts manual for the CS3....where u get your part numbers from?

on a side note, if anyone here looking for Akebono Disc Pads for their Lancer (OEM Brakes are Akebono)

the part number is AKEBONO ACT904

[EVA Unit-01]

on a side note, if anyone here looking for Akebono Disc Pads for their Lancer (OEM Brakes are Akebono)

the part number is AKEBONO ACT904

just to be clear, the Mitsubishi MZ690185 brake pads are Akebono (and black) (not too sure if it's the same thing as ACT904). - are the value selection pads
the other one, MN116604 is a (green) Sumitomo pad and does still exist (despite what some websites may say).- is the better one to buy these come with the new cars

Thats the one i bought at DM.

Anyone know if DM haveing a sale this month?

[turbo_beast369]

I using the MZ690185 (Akebono) its works great!!! very very little brake dust and no noise and great stopping power...what do they really mean when they say "value selection pads"

[JUS4SHO]

its oem but its cheaper and not the same quality, with the MZ690185 i dont get the stopping power as with the MN116604

btw it have 4 sets here

[venum]

MZ690185 (Akebono) working well on Blondie

no hard braking on a regular basis e.g. dex etc, just normal street and highway driving

the MN116604 suppose to be better

SHO tested both

Yes I have a 2002 GDI CS2A..

Sorry to burst your bubble but I had to ship back that evaporator (yes i got a full refund too) as the connectors had a flange on them and they were not spaced out correctly.

I ended up buying a Foreign used evaporator and its working perfect now, blowing very, very, very cold.

DM and ultracool doesent sell the evaporator for the singapore model AFAIK.

King Cool claims to have it, I have pics of my old evaporator.

[evil_gdi]

I got my Nexen for $500 each

two totally different Brands I Would not class NEXEN with Michelin

[venum]

good tyres not cheap

if yuh want the premium grade like Michelin, TOYO, Falken, Pirelli, Yokohama then prepare to pay $800 - $1000 each

middle grade like Dunlop, Sumitomo, Kumho, Hankook, GoodYear, Bridgestone would be like a $400 - $600

Doh even mention low end like Roadstone\Nexxen, Wanli, Hercules

I had some Roadstone's on Elle - terrible $750.00 each

got some Toyo - really nice $1200.00 each

tyres are one of the best and most practical upgrades that you can do for your vehicle, from a safety, comfort and fuel economy perspective

as great as your brakes can be be, without good rubber compound, they worthless

I tend to stay away from directional rotation tyres - you can't rotate as great as non-directional
