Singapore or Malaysia

You can get the K&N from USA easily - but what I would personally suggest is a Gruppe M Carbon-Fiber Air-Intake setup - that's the real deal brother

I am currently just looking at options. And i am not much of a hardcore racing driver. I am one of those guys who cruise around at 60 kmph in the slow lane all the time. I occasionally floor the pedal when i am on long empty road like 9th or 7th ave. But i developed a serious dislike for underpowered cars while driving on highways to dera ghazi khan.
I bought a cl9 totally on an impulse. I was just browsing through pakwheels and came across a bmw 3 series for 1.6 million. That just gave me the idea to change my car and resulted in me buying the cl9
I dont want to swap out the swift for couple of reasons. First, its wife's car now and she will kick my butt if i sell it. Secondly, she will kick my butt even more if i buy another cl9 (euro r) and also because i love the car...
But the euro r, is it advertised on pakwheels? How much is he asking for it???

No funds for it.

Can only do cheap mods

ali.iqbal1 2018-07-27 23:58:41 +0500 #1054

I think she'll appreciate the upgrade to this or the CL9 vice-e-versa.

Not trying to promote the car in anyway - but it deserves to be admired, MashAllah - absolutely stunning car, would've definitely purchased it or made my brother buy it (he lives abroad otherwise I would've gladly brought her home by now) lol.

I guess I will just get the AEM dryflow filter. It's similar to works.

ali.iqbal1 2018-07-27 23:59:54 +0500 #1056

I suggest that you try K&N as well or afterwards - that can seriously take some beating with our dusty weather.

fahdahmad (fahdahmad) 2018-07-28 00:02:28 +0500 #1057

Are you sure it's a euro r. There are no engine bay pics.

fahdahmad (fahdahmad) 2018-07-28 00:04:13 +0500 #1058

How long your works filter lasted?

In ur experience k and n lasted longer?

Which was better at filtering the dust?

ali.iqbal1 2018-07-28 00:04:45 +0500 #1059

Even if it isn't - really don't care lol - look at the specs and condition of the car - full leather upholstery, heated seats, stick-shift, sun-roof etc MashAllah.

ali.iqbal1 2018-07-28 00:06:33 +0500 #1060

Yar honestly I can't say how long they lasted because the CL9 was usually parked most of the time both of them were in there, I just changed them after 10K each - roughly that was 1.5 years or so lol.

Hows the nav system going? Resolved the issues. Hows the experience

usmansameen (usmansameen) 2018-07-28 00:21:17 +0500 #1062

That is a beauty!!!!

ali.iqbal1 2018-07-28 00:24:45 +0500 #1063

Barely driven the CL9 ever since I got the navigation installed, the bluetooth crossing / overlapping into radio was still there - really don't understand why its happening - As I said before even if I play music on other applications such as YouTube and SoundCloud (there's no sound).

Been busy with the Civic lately, finally got it tinted today and I believe I might've over-killed it a bit with 90% tint or so haha.

@usmansameen - Show the car - Let her imagine herself driving that Artic-Blue CL

omg that is pure LOVE ... i don't think any other variant of Accord apart from Euro-R comes in manual? i might be wrong?

ali.iqbal1 2018-07-28 02:06:22 +0500 #1065

Well technically this is a UK-Spec Accord so I really can't say - Japanese manuals are Euro R basically.

sameerulhaq064 (Sameer Ul Haq) 2018-07-28 02:29:26 +0500 #1066

Was seriously considering this accord (the only CL7 I've considered to buy) but the manual transmission is a bit of a turnoff. It is a beautiful car indeed. And, isn't this car owned by someone in this group??

ali.iqbal1 2018-07-28 02:42:37 +0500 #1067

That my friend is the biggest turn-on lol - Yes it's owned by a member as I mentioned.

sameerulhaq064 (Sameer Ul Haq) 2018-07-28 02:51:32 +0500 #1068

It is, actually, but I've some other factors that I've to take into account, that's why.

usmansameen (usmansameen) 2018-07-28 15:50:43 +0500 #1069

Which tires would be the best option. Yokohama advan db. Continetal mc5. Good year. Michlen. Soundless and comfortable is what i am looking for.
