Topic: Microtex Products
Posted: Wednesday, June 30, 2010 8:32:54 AM
Any feedbacks on microtex products particularly for nanoGlos and nanoSliq? I've been using it for about a month now and so far, so good I'm quite satisfied.

Anyone here tried it?

I mean, rust. Reddish brown rust. Huh

For the cracked / rotten hoses, I already consulted the SA for Honda. I could safely convert the trusty ol' 96 Civic to be fully compatible with e10. Thumbs up

I had been using e10 for quite sometime. what i noticed was (apart from being non-compatible as per Honda Cars Philippines) that my sparkplugs tend to have rust in the tips. is this normal? anyone have the same experience? Eek

No idea on my side. What you may do though is try to see if the Korean part maker is does parts for Korean cars as OEM. If that is the case then it sounds good enough.

What's the brand and price difference from the Jap counterpart?


Yup. Done my research regarding that. I found out that some European companies had their factories in Korea.

for the wheel hub assembly: Korean made: 1100, Japanese made: 1600. I ended up buying the Japanese made- Korean made parts are out of stock.

Topic: Fuel type
Posted: Monday, March 08, 2010 5:34:43 AM
What type of car anyway? The only drawback I see (and experience) using high-octane fuel is that, when you switch back to lower octane fuel, the engine response becomes not-so smooth. At the moment, I use 97RON from SeaOil- price of the regular gasoline but with a power comparable to V-Power from Shell.

Can somebody give a feedback on Korean made products? I'm about to buy a replacement parts for my wheel bearing assembly and I'm thinking of getting Korean made (not sure of the brand though) instead of Japanese made. Will it be durable?

why is it that I have a feeling that the owner of the Benz was brandishing a replica and not a real mccoy M4?

Topic: feedback on kumho tires
Posted: Wednesday, December 30, 2009 9:08:14 AM
just got a set of 4 Kumho Solus KH17 for my sedan.

my take?

apart from the price, what sold me is the treadwear- 400 compared to other brands of 300 or lower. the handling was ok, though i still have to do a 'wet' test- for the moment, on dry paved road, it's quite good. ride comfort was ok, it's quiet. i also tried tossing it around the corner at 60 km/h- it's confidence inspiring. it also has low rolling resistance thus it helps improve my fuel consumption. as for the braking performance, it compliments the braking power too.

it's best bang for the buck, at least for my buck.

Thumbs up
