its more for collectors la...even Ferrari Enzo produced around 390 units world wide if im not mistaken...and this Mugen pandai pandai produced 300 units only...I think this is the first limited edition car by them...hope they wont do it too often...for those rich business man...what is RM 330K to them...the best thing is they can go and tell ppl around during Bintang or Vegas TT..."wei...I just bought a Honda Civic at the price tag of RM 330k but I dont know worth it or not la...but Naza told me this car is the one and only in Malaysia at this moment...so i just bought it lo...its even harder to be spotted than your F430 leh..."

Just buy a FD2R and spend RM 130k to mod it...wow..RR sure cant see your taillamps...RR is all about exclusivity...if I have plenty of extra RM 330K to spend...I will buy it as well

Guys, anyone wanna add Flash pro into the comparo?

i have to say, the reflash totally transformed my ride. Amazing, considering i only replaced the panel filter and decatted the xzos.

As for flash pro, maybe it's for the more 'adventurous' kaki. For me, i'll stick to what j's racing has to offer

Eh.. just for the sake of argument, why FD2R never use Motec ah?
Is it because got no tuner or simply coz its expensive?

r399, adventurous or not, ...hard to determine. When some people buy things at that very moment, that particular option may not be available. As such, they purchase something which is being offered in the market at tat given time. of course, one can sell the old one and "upgrade" to he newer products.

It also has things to do with planning. And personal preferences.

Given an example of say, $ is no issue.

A might opt to install Intake only to feel the gains.

B might go for IHE and he thinks down time is one time only and one time labour.

If you plan your modifications, am sure everyone will try to avoid paying Double abour charges.

ari, take flash pro for an example.

Flashpro vs Motec (m400,m600,m800 *more outputs a it goes higher but most would use m4 for a 4 pottie)


$ VS $
gain VS gain
PnP VS piggyback or re-wire or is there a PnP already for motec?
tuner (availability, familiarity) VS tuner

all comes to the picture man.

Yuri: Hey buddy.. I've always found you to be very knowledgeable and I really like the way you put things into perspective. Good explanation. Info noted and appreciate your time to pen this down. Thanks buddy


Rodeo: Nicely put as well. Agreed with what you've said. It's an over kill if you're to spend thousands and the gain is only 10bhp.


It's just that I'm relatively new with N/A engines especially the K-series and I keep hearing new things. I like to learn and weigh the value before modding. As you know, $ dont grow on trees. So thanks again guys for your feedback.

Yuri: I think, I need to take a course on how to mod cars laa with you. So, next semester, got new intake for freshman or not? hehehe..

Again.. I agree with what was said. Well written boss

I hope you dont mind me sharing, but all my previous ride was using a stand alone management system. Same as the flashpro I guess. It made sense then as I was modding pretty often and my aim was.. like what you say.. more horsey..

But now.. I want something that can last and give me the drivability which I enjoy having now. And also act as a weekend warrior in SIC. Thats all. Those days, it was all BHP and nothing else. Even the slightest gain would be an advantage. Like you, I'm now looking at the power band, torque curve and all rather than just peak bhp. Getting old laa I guess.

So.. thanks for the clarification. I appreciate it buddy.



As for your last comment- anytime buddy. I'm just really passionate about pictures and cars. hehehe..

Bro Yuri,

You brought up some interesting points The main reason why i say the flashpro is a more adventurous alternative is because the J's reflash is already a safe (and track proven) way to make power.

Plus, getting a tool like the flashpro opens up more tuning and customization possibilities e.g. Ivtec engagement point, ignition timing. I guess at the end of the day it's how much (calculated?) risk you wanna take when extracting every last pony from your motor.

I agree with you that ultimately it's one's comfort/confidence level when it comes to mods. IMHO a tUne up by a reputable jap tuning house makes all the difference

Just my 2 sen, itu pun kena pinjam kat Uncle Chris. Hehehe

r399- no problem! sharing is caring. this is a thread for the ecu/reflashes afterall.

psst, the J's reflashes can also be customized like what you quoted.

try asking that uncle ! hehehehehe

and yes, J's map is good and proven. (am still running on this )

i like that word.........that magic word..........UNCLE !!!!!!! wakakakakkakakakkakakakakka...............miahahahahhahahahahahaahahahahhaha...........wuahahahahhahahahahahhahahah...........................

okay...2 possibilities.........

1st r399 you are young.........

2nd chris2000 is old.........or looks old to you.........




bro Ari...........wanna be weekend warrior huh? so can i join your battle tomoro????

Hahahahhahahaha..... I look younger because I kasi botak so cannot see my white hair. Also i always wear shorts and t shirt, not like uncle always wear long pants, shirt and control hensem one. Sh*t, sounds like i'm not acting my age la. Hahahahahaha

Hahahahaha. Crocs give better grip for heel & toe maybe?
