Get from JDM , o think they have the widest range for Mazda after market stuffs in Singapore

Any of you guys experience the blue icon for cold engine going off just seconds after starting the car cold and rpm till high revving?

Never, this is weird as most case, the blue icon off only after the high rev process and will take quite some time. Especially these few days w raining nights and engine is cooler than other days.

Ok lah. Yours still the outstanding one !

There's a Mazda club Singapore page on Facebook already. You can post there then everyone join that page. Easier to organize that way cos our thread in this forum is super active... Anything you post will get buried within hours!

I saw the thickness measure of a 2014 Mazda 3 car being sold on quotz. The thickness of the paint is surprisingly thin, even thinner than those 8-9 year old car.

Yup, also the creating of hairline and swirling marks is very prone if car not cleaned perfectly, no claying done, tiny particles stucked in the cloth or aplicator (worst is tiny fine stone or sand) , too forceful buffering or removal of pre wax cleaner.
Too many factors which really test my patience

So its not just honda w thin paint? Another mcfer said that honda car's paint dont come w clear coat.

Earlier wanna show my overseas friend the navigation my ride have and the below happened. Damn malu siah.

Hi bros, I will be collecting my mz3 sedan next fri/following mon. Excited! What are the more important things to get to protect the car first, i.e. PPS, scuff plates? Looking forward to learn from all of you! And huat to everyone!!

For me, i will sent the car to fix dash cam (if urs don't hv), if u want to add bodykit can do now too, next change the mickey mouse horn, then send for car grooming so that they will also coat ur bodykit if urs is painted ... :)

Restarted as in restarted the engine? Or is there a reset/restart for the MZD?

Restarted the engine. Thats the only way i know how to off and on back the Mz Connect.� [nosebleed]

Protection? Only PPS. Unless you wanna wrap the whole ride with vinyl stickers.

I have only encountered your second problem. I don't really know the solution for it. I just cancel the route and restart it. Sometimes it works after repeating once, sometimes twice.

The 2nd problem is easy. Just go to home page and then go back to navi page seem to override this problem. However we still shouldn't be facing such problems at all.

We can restart the system without restarting the engine (but the engine has to be turned off). Just press the start button without stepping on the brake - this will restart all the electronics and hopefully reset/restart the MZD. If everything is working fine, then just step on the brake pedal and press the start button again - this will start the engine without turning everything else off.

Thanks bro! The in-car cam given by TEK. Any recommendations for changing the horn and car grooming? Probably not looking at bodykit for now. Scuff plates is to protect the sides of the car doors right? Any recommendations for that too? TIA! :)

dcb lol no la, I meant to protect the body paint. Any recommended PPS to go for? :)

Hi peep, does anyone know what how many mm does mazda 3 doom light uses? 41mm?

I didn't know that we can start the electronics without starting the engine. Why would you start the electronics without starting the engine though?

I am a fan of Opti-Shine. I think a few members here can attest to the the service and quality provided by them.

Although I wouldn't recommend it, you can always listen to you stereo with the engine off while waiting for someone. Of course, this drains your batt and you shouldn't do this for an extended period of time. It's just like the on/acc functions of a normal key start - the two positions before the key actually reaches the cranking position to start the engine.

Oh i see. Thanks for the info. [thumbsup]

I did this the other day listening to radio without starting the engine. After certain time it auto shut down, I think the voltage drop to a set level it will shut down to avoid draining the battery. But not sure at what voltage level it will shut down.
I suppose this a good safety feature...

I dun think the car aircon will get cold without engine starting. At least that's is what is happening for my previous 4 rides.

Yup, scuff plates somehow protects from my irritating n clumsy passengers' whose shoes or slippers rub against the side doors... Hahahaha... But more on appearance too. Part of which is WRAPPED as photo shows. For this u can source from Taobao,Amazon or JDM..for wrap is from JJ Decal ubi.

Happy CNY to all bros & sis (if any? �)

Swee!

Found this mod from overseas...super low suspension set-up.... Omg....

Wa... this one very siong! Dunno how to drive liao

My advice is use a plastic ply from auto accessories shop should sell. Taobao selling too. some hardware shop have it too. Shouldn't cost not more than $10. I used a solid metal flat screw driver , it left a dent on plastic in my rear dome light, thou it's just cosmetic defect. The front both dome light should be alright to use a metal tool to ply.

Thanks! order online already. :)

Can share where you brought it and the price?
Thanks.

It should be on an air suspension. The ride height can be raised or dropped at the touch of a button. It is un-drivable with this stance lol.

I think air suspension is an illegal mod in Singapore tho. Correct me if I am wrong.

Oh....cool!!!!

can i ask one tupid qn ah.. scuff plate with led won't need to cut any wires right? guess quite a few bros do it here before. how much does it cost + labor?

I have 2 sets of festoon led 31mm for sale. Bought but wife complain too bright, "poke eyes"...

There are unused slots in the fuse box which you connect to. I connect the car cam using those available slots.

For those who don't want to spice the wire. You can consider the product to connect any other stuff.

Does any one know how to skip the current playing music folder in ubs drive using steering controls or the knob without manually navigate to folders. Thanks.

Hi, I bought from ebay.

Thx :)

30-31mm festoon type bulbs are correct, like some of the bros here have said.

PrecisionLED sold some plastic prying tools online, but I think it's a bit overkill. You can use a very thin flathead screwdriver to pry open the covers. The one above the backseat is a bit harder to pry open and needs more care when prying. Take your time when doing it :)

Front lights cover are easy to remove, can use the plastics trim tool but for the back seat light, the cover very tight, the plastics tool not strong enough, casues dent mark. I use a small metal flat head screw driver, tape the tip with tape then can pry the cover off.
Watch the youtube video from PrecisionLED to learn where to pry.

Is your car a HB? If yes, did you change the bulb in the boot?

Need to fill up the form and go down to lta. They don't accept cheque, only cashier order.

Just called LTA to find out.. Was informed as this is a close bidding,they are unable to advise.. Lol.. What the heck..

I think they are just lazy to explain to you how it works over the phone. Ask Ken-sanki he bidder for his license plate.

The V551 should last you at least 10k km more than the GR100 and is slightly more comfortable and just as quiet. The V551 215/55/17 for my car costs around $180-$185. Can try Kim Hoe tyres.

Lacer spotted!�

�

lol whats that?

Only go for Defi meters.�

thats the round circle types right? hmm was thinking of the more discreet ones.

hows the fuel economy for mazda 3 like?? fuel efficient not? then the back seat, hows the legroom and headroom like?? passable for 165-170cm people (x2 people at backseat)??

Then you gotta go for the OBD2 type. Digital Ines. Look at HKS or Blitz.

Best is go to the showroom and test drive the ride. Talk to SE about fuel economy.

For OBDII type... I think McWell has one selling at $100+ but not sure of the brand.

Yes, the best bet is to test drive yourself and talk to SE

If it's McWell then it gotta be Pivot.
