i nv did think highly of myself.... but its true that i think lowly of you.... i will accept ur humble exit..loser...You wan, i can play with you. PM me.

ceecookie SG

Ohh i see

so when does the car let you know when to change??? in a manual car

High pitch sound or whine?

I think you have to ask a workshop about this

HolySniper SG

for all i know... 2rpm is quite optimal in most cases and is usually what people drive at... 1k plus rpm to 2kplus rpm....

mr driver.... u mean u drive at 3-4k rpm?? or do u drive at all???

excuse me, do u noe that sometimes too low a rpm can cause higher fuel consumption due to not enuff torque and u have to step harder? u understand the word , inefficient? normal i listen to the engine sound when it's smooth den i change gear which is ard 3k+ rpm.. and i only rent car to play, so i dun bother too much about fuel for now.. =]

and my fren's dad drivin auto car, it shifts at 3k+ too.. my uncle drove his sunny and another on vios and another on matrix shifts at that range too. so wat usually u talkin about..

ah tofu, come, share your car's efficiency's experience

erm.. i dun think u know what u are talking about....

too low rpm WUN cause higher fuel consumption... too low rpm u buay tahan cause u to step harder WILL increase fuel consumption... so the inefficiency stems from ur right foot not from the engine.. wtf u talking about???

u listen to ur engine smooth?? what are u talking about...i din know smooth is a word to describe an engine at high revs... means what... ur engine is machiam from a mustang??? at low revs... gonna die car one but at high revs then can sustain the engine combustion??? those rented car of urs engine will feel smooth only at low rpm...above 2 plus reaching 3 the engine will start to sound like a person struggling to breath...

yah sure.. burn a hole in ur pocket and then earn some bragging rights about how u flushed ur money through the exhaust pipe of ur rented car which is not even meant to rev in the first place....

there is an optimal range for an engine... all the cars u listed above are 1.5 and 1.6 litres... their optimal range is around 2 if u are talking about fuel efficiency...

yes sure.. their max torque is around 3 plus... but u sure u need that much torque??? which is like a few more Nm than if u shift up at 2???

why are ur uncle and friend shifting up at 3 +... cos they stepping on the accelerator like no tmr.. like u loh... yes they are shifting up at peak torque... but their FC is going down the drain....

and from the way u speak... i can tell u are an immature driver.. what traffic light F1... pls get a life... u can shift up at the redline to boost ur oversized ego and listen to ur engine get breathless with asthma but ur car will still be slow...

mh2 SG

what's there to hohoho about...

with fuel hitting and maintaining at 2bucks a litre...

either u are ignorant or too loaded....

no money dun drive ,

miserable fella

start insulting ppl again.

drive on your power band la.

i insulting pple....???

u know what is an insult??

an insult is this.... when u dunno anything about other pple and jump to conclusions...

and calling pple name like an immature kindergarten kiddo..

and only join in the fray to flame people when u are sure u have allies with u...

oh sorry... correction... this is not juz an insult.. its an insult dealt out by a coward...

a coward that is mh2 waiting to get banned again...

n0x SG

drive on your power band la.

again u dunno what u are talking about... drive on ur power band??? wth u taling about...

stop making a fool of urself pls...

BangHong SG

chill...

HolySniper SG

sighs.. why so uptight about what rpm to shift at? even with normal driving 3.5k upshift, and spirited driving, i still get 11km/L on a lancer..

precisely isnt it.

want to drive , dun worry about efficient. jus do it (spirited) the way it should be with safety of course

thks pal

i now driving a civic, once a day zua vtec until 7rpm lawl

bro u eg9 or eh8 ah? posted in edmw chius ish no reply.. lol.

how's ur mthly cost breakdown and conditions? care to pm me if not able to post here? cos i ish oso interested..

shifting like 1.5k. the engine will struggle. bad for engine & fc will increase.

onlooker123 SG

keep to 2500rpm and under, you can save a lot of fuel

don't believe try it out for a week or so.

then i ask u... why need to hao lian at which rpm u rev up to?? and say what traffic light grand prix??? say already veh shiok ah??

thks pal

got people agree with you then u go along with them.. and anyhow acknowledge bro/pal.... only talk back when got backing... how spineless can u get??? and i din know a loser like u can be so loaded to not care about petrol cost....

n0x SG

yes the engine will struggle.. there will excessive clutch wear... but the fuel consumption will not be hihg.... where did u get ur idea from... anyways i said the rpm band for max efficiency of the engine is 1.5 -2.5 krpm... but i nv said u should shift up at 1.5k rpm ah... u can be crusing along at 100km/h at 6th gear and u rpm can be at 1.5k rpm....

gabrielhrteo SG

What car are you driving NOX? 6th gears. Which sports car? Don't tell me normal cars have 6 gears(don't include reverse gear).

what car am i driving is it of any concern.. and please define normal and define sports car... a mercedes sedan have 7 gears.. is that a sports car???
