4G91 (Super Touring size) flywheel + clutch set

2008-09-15T16:07:00.005+08:00

For Saga/Iswara/Wira/Arena/Satria with the 4G13P/4G15P engine and the original 6.5" diameter clutch, to upgrade to the bigger 8" clutch set similar to the one on the Wira 1.6/1.8. Good for city-driving, with increased response in lower RPMs, and many taxis are using this as they mostly travel within cities with many stop-and-go traffic requiring frequent acceleration from a standstill.

Package includes:

1. Used flywheel from the Mitsubishi 4G91 engine
2. Used clutch cover from the Mitsubishi 4G91 engine
3. New Korean-made Valeo brand 8" clutch pad

This clutch & flywheel set is a plug-n-play affair, no machining or drilling required, just bring it to your mechanic and swap out your old clutch & flywheel with this clutch & flywheel package. It's not recommended to skim the flywheel, as the resulted extra throttle input needed to climb long, steep hills may overheat the radiator coolant.

Sorry, but I can't sell you any of these items individually, as it comes packaged as a set.

Optional part: high quality Japan-made NTN bearing at RM30, recommended to be changed together with the flywheel & clutch, unless if you have just changed yours recently.

Price: RM280/set (excluding the NTN bearing), delivered to anywhere in West M'sia

RedLine MT90 Manual Transmission Gear Oil

2008-03-26T14:13:00.017+08:00

Arrived:

RedLine Oil's MT-90 (API GL-4 spec) is designed to provide excellent protection and improved shiftability for manual transmissions and transaxles over a wide range of temperatures, having cured the problem of hard shifting in thousands of transmissions with shifting troubles, by having the appropriate coefficient of friction for most manual transmissions synchronisers (many gear oils, engine oils & ATFs are too slippery for proper synchro engagement). It contains friction modifier which is recommended for limited-slip units. This 75W90 viscosity gear oil can be used in many transmissions and transaxles.

Red Line Gear Oils contain polyol ester basestocks to provide excellent lubrication even under extreme conditions of high-loading and high- temperatures--their natural lubricity provide excellent slipperiness which reduces the sliding friction in hypoid gears to reduce wear and temperatures. The synthetic basestocks have a natural multigrade property, so large amounts of unstable thickeners are not required to manufacture our gear oils, which means that Red Line Gear Oils will provide a stable viscosity for even extended periods of use. The shear stability and oxidation stability of RedLine products are excellent, thus the physical characteristics of RedLine MT-90 will change little with use.

FAQ

2008-03-25T08:40:00.003+08:00

Q: Are you sure my car can use ?W-30 viscosity oil?

A: Yes, nowadays even service centres like Honda also provides 5W-30 oil for all new Hondas during oil change. As long as the engine is in good condition, i.e. not consuming oil, u can even use 0W-20 oil w/o problem. Read the Thin Oil Myth FAQ for more info.

Thin oil = less protection used to be true, but oil technology has since advanced a lot, so much so that the oil viscosity doesn't determine the protection level anymore. In fact, modern engines have increasingly tighter tolerances that actually REQUIRE thin oils to work well! Check the owner's manuals of new cars to verify this fact.

Thinner oils also flow faster & easier during start-up to build up protection faster compared to thicker oils. The faster it reaches the part, the sooner it can start lubrication & protection.

Generally speaking, as long as an engine is not consuming oil while on a certain viscosity, it's safe to try an oil which is of 1 grade lower (eg. from ?W-50 --> ?W-40 or ?W-40 --> ?W-30). If there's still no oil consumption, this means the engine is in a good condition and may be suitable for an even lower viscosity. However, if there's oil consumption after using a lower viscosity oil, just top up with a higher viscosity oil, and switch back to the previous higher viscosity oil for the next oil change.

Q: My owner's manual recommends 20W-50 grade oil, can I still use 0W/5W/10W-30?

A: Yes, any engine can use oils with viscosities lower than that recommended as long as it has no noticeable oil consumption issue. Even old or high mileage cars can use low viscosity oil, as old or high mileage don't necessarily mean the engine must be in a bad condition. Well-maintained cars have reported no problem using ?W-30 grade oil.

On the other hand, just because an engine is quite new, it also doesn't necessarily mean the engine will be in a good condition, as poor maintenance or driving habits can damage engines very fast, and make them consume oil even though the age or mileage is still quite low.

Q: Are oils listed here suitable for my 4T bike engine?

A: 4T bikes can refer to the API C? part for diesel engines, so only Royal Purple 5W30 & Chevron Supreme Synthetic 5W30 aren't suitable as they don't have the API C? rating. Oil without the API C? rating may have friction modifier that makes it too slippery for bike's wet clutches to work properly.

Q: Why are there some fully-synthetic oils that last only 12,000 km/6 months while others can last 24,000~56,000 km/1 year?

A: This depends on the specific oil's formulation. Oils made for extended drain intervals have extra anti-wear & acid-neutralising alkaline additives for this purpose, so they generally cost more, but is worth it for those clocking high mileage within short intervals. Such oils also minimise pollution due to less waste oil produced, and many newer cars, especially European makes, are heading towards this direction of minimal pollution and maximum environmental-friendliness.
