The SKY-G engine is a 2.0 liter unit with direct injection and an improved variable valve timing system which gives it a 15% fuel economy and torque advantage over the current MZR engine in the Mazda 3 2.0 Sport. Direct injection was previously found only on the turbocharged 2.3 liter engine but is now available in the ‘regular’ engines.

The Mazda SKY-D engine is a 2.2 liter unit that offers fuel economy of approximately 20% better than the current 2.2 liter diesel engine. It features a newly designed engine block that reduces mechanical friction to the level of a gasoline engine. Other features include piezo injectors and a two-stage turbocharger. It doesn’t sound like its a twin-turbo setup, but instead is probably a variable geometry turbocharger.

Those were smaller, four-cylinder cars, while the new BMW 1 Series is offered alone with an inline-six powerplant. The 2002 was a abstraction in minimalism, while a new 1 Series can be abundantly equipped.


 

Choose amid the 128i, powered by a 3.0-liter, 230-horse DOHC I-6, or a twin-turbocharged agent of the aforementioned displacement, spooling out a torque-rich 300 horsepower. Both engines can be had with stick or automated transmission. Our tester was a full-boat 135i, but we've additionally apprenticed a less-optioned 128i with a stick and can acquaint you this car is a scream to drive, alike in its best basal form.


As with abounding Bangle-era Bimmers, the arguing point is design. Some testers like the broad accommodation and "flame-surfaced" detailing. Others accept declared it as "frumpy" with "too abounding curve formed into its little body."

So does the BMW 1 Series accept the appurtenances to be the 2009 Motor Trend Car of the Year? Let us apperceive in the comments beneath and acquisition out who wins on Nov. 18.

kiat merawat paru-paru mesin anda

Saringan udara atu dikenal dengan sebutan Air Filter merupakan paru-paru mesin kendaraan Anda, yang berfungsi menyaring dan membuang debu dari udara yang masuk dan mengalirkan udara yang bersih ke mesin, karena saringan udara merupakan suatu bagian yang sangat penting, maka perlu dibersihkan dan diganti secara teratur untuk menjaga kondisi yang prima kendaraan Anda.

Pada umumnya, dalam mobil terdapat dua jenis saringan udara yang berfungsi menyaring udara untuk keperluan optimasi sistem pembakaran dan satu lagi yang berfungsi dalam rangkaian sistem pendingin kabin (AC).

Saringan udara yang terletak pada bagian atas karburator (atau ujung sistem injeksi) fungsi utamanya adalah untuk menghilangkan debu dan kotoran yang terdapat pada udara yang masuk ke karburator/injeksi atau silinder mesin.

Sedang saringan udara pada rangkaian sistem blower AC diperlukan untuk menyaring udara luar yang bakal masuk ke kabin untuk sirkulasi udara dan menggantinya dengan udara dingin. Saringan udara yang berkaitan dengan sistem pengapian memiliki tiga fungsi penting lain, yaitu:

1. Membersihkan udara yang masuk ke mesin dengan saluran keluar penyaring dan partikel lain yang dapat merusakkan komponen dalam mesin.

2. Mencegah nyala api dari mesin atau pada saat terjadi proses penyalaan kembali.

3. Mengurangi kebisingan dari udara yang masuk ke karburator atau saluran isap.

Karena pentingnya fungsi saringan udara, maka perawatan seksama terhadap komponen ini menjadi keharusan yang tak bisa dihindari. Meskipun dibersihkan secara rutin, saringan udara memiliki batas ambang pemakaian sehingga pengantian dalam waktu tertentu tetap harus dilakukan. Tak ada salahnya merawat saringan udara mobil Anda sendiri dengan beberapa upaya berikut:

- Periksalah elemen saringan udara secara rutin untuk mengetahui apakah ada kerusakan atau kondisinya amat kotor, sehingga harus diganti. Pemeriksaan mudah dilakukan dengan hanya membuka penutup dan cabut saringannya perlahan. Umumnya saringan udara untuk AC terletak pada tempat tersembunyi dan pencopotannya harus dilakukan lebih hati-hati.

- Bersihkan saringan udara dengan menyemprotkan angin kompresi dengan tekanan rendah dan ditiupkan dari arah dalam ke luar. Ulangi beberapa kali hingga tak lagi keluar debu dari bagian ini. Bila terlampau kotor, komponen itu bisa saja dicuci dengan larutan pembersih dan keringkan, sampai benar-benar kering, sebelum dipasang kembali.

- Setelah itu, periksa tutup saringan udara dan rumah saringannya dari kemungkinan adanya perubahan bentuk atau kerusakan. Wadah saringan udara juga umumnya mengalami penumpukan debu atau basah karena sisa minyak pelumas. Bersihkan bagian ini hingga benar-benar bersih dan kering.

- Setelah membersihkan, bila perlu memperbaiki bentuk penutup saringan udara dan membersihkan wadah komponen tersebut, pekerjaan terakhir adalah kembali memasangnya secara benar. Pasangkan saringan udara seperti posisi semula. Jangan pernah terbalik karena akan berarti membuat komponen tersebut tidak berfungsi sebagai penyaring.

Gantilah saringan udara setiap 20.000 km!

BMW K 1200 S, mengguncang kemapanan moge


BMW K 1200 S, mengguncang kemapanan moge
Untuk urusan moge alias motor besar, BMW termasuk pemain yang diperhitungkan. Apalagi angka penjualan moge asal Jerman ini terus mencatatkan rekor penjualan di dunia. Paling tidak, di seluruh dunia, BMW sudah melego 84.713 unit mogenya sejak 2001, bahkan sampai awal 2003 sudah mencapai 92.000 unit.


Tidak mengherankan jika raksasa otomotif dari negeri Bavaria ini terus meluncurkan model-model moge terbarunya. September lalu, misalnya, BMW kembali merilis BMW K 1200 S, moge seri terbarunya di ajang pamer motor internasional INTERMOT di Munich, Jerman. Menurut rencana, BMW akan memasarkan moge andalannya ini awal tahun ini.


Banyak pengamat motor mengatakan moge terbaru BMW ini memiliki desain dengan varian moge K milik BMW yang sudah dikeluarkan sepanjang 2004 seperti K 1200 RS, K 1200 GT dan K 1200 LT. Desain moge ini sangat khas Jerman dan stylish mengesankan kuat dan elegan. Meski langsing, kesan kuat itu langsung ditangkap melalui disain pelindung depan yang aerodinamis siap membelah angin dalam kecepatan tinggi.


Dengan lampu depan yang besar namun bening ditambah kaca samping dan panel indikator sangat mengesankan kendaraan ini sebagai seekor serangga sedang mencari mangsa.Selain rangka berbahan aluminium sudah mengesankan citra elegan, kesan itu diperkuat jika kita memperhatikan penempatan desain logo yang menempel pada kedua sirip samping kendaraan ini.


Jangan dilupakan pula guratan-guratan penyalur angin yang unik pada fairing yang menutup tangki dipadu peredam suara dalam ukuran besar serta pipa-pipa menempel pada mesin menambah citra elegan moge ini.Untuk urusan kaki-kaki, sentuhan detail pada roda makin menambah kesan sebagai moge yang kokoh, stabil namun tetap ringan.


Pijakan kaki bagi tuas gas, transmisi dan rem kaki oleh BMW diletakkan pada tempat yang sama. Ini dimaksudkan agar pengendara tidak terlalu membuka kaki terlalu lebar saat melaju dalam kecepatan yang tinggi. Bagian tersebut dirancang seramping mungkin. Hal ini terlihat mulai dari pijakan kaki di dasar terus menuju bagian tangki yang ramping dan tingginya sejajar lutut lalu ke batang kemudi.


Seperti generasi K sebelumnya, kendaraan ini menyediakan tempat duduk yang nyaman namun tetap memudahkan pengendalian bagi semua pengendara tidak peduli ukuran tubuhnya. Sedangkan bagi pembonceng, BMW mengklaim dari sudut ergonomis tempat duduk di belakang akan nyaman karena pembonceng tidak terlampau harus mencondongkan badannya ke depan.


Tanpa mengintip jarak poros roda yang panjang dan angka 1.200 pada fairing akan sulit menebak kendaraan ini dipersenjatai BMW dengan mesin empat silinder berkapasitas 1.157 cc dengan konfigurasi saling bersilangan. Untuk medapatkan titik berat gravitasi lebih rendah maka mesin yang berbobot 81,3 kg ini ditempatkan sedikit condong ke depan, sejauh 55 derajat. Penempatan yang mirip pada seri BMW 600 cc itu juga menghasilkan motor yang terlihat lebih datar, ramping dan lebih kokoh.


Dengan titik berat gravitasi lebih rendah maka kendaraan ini akan mudah dikendalikan saat bermanuver pada kecepatan tinggi. Selain itu, beban kendaraan dan pengendara akan dibebankan sama besar pada kedua ban sehingga lebih stabil.


Kita sudah mengenal sistem torak yang menggerakkan roda, BMW sendiri sudah sejak lama merancang sistem ini agar mudah dalam perawatannya. Namun untuk BMW K 1200 S, BMW memasang sistem lengan penggerak Paralever yang sudah dimodifikasi.


Seperti diketahui, kekuatan mesin empat tak dengan mudah akan membengkokkan suspensi roda belakang yang lemah, secara terus menerus pada setiap akselerasinya. Jelas teknologi lama tidak mungkin diandalkan. Oleh sebab itu, jalan keluar seperti pada sistem ini, torak kemudi ditempatkan tanpa perlu diturunkan bobotnya dan dibuat lebih kaku.


Selain itu dilakukan aplikasi teknologi yang prinsipnya sudah digunakan pada disain lengan as berputar, yakni bagian bagian yang bergerak di antara bingkai mesin dan suspensi roda belakang. Tepat di bagian kritis inilah beban kerja motor berpusat. Hasilnya, saat tombol start di sentuh secara ringan maka yang didapatkan adalah deru halus mesin empat tak yang dalam namun bergemuruh.


Dengan tenaga maksimal sebesar 167 tenaga kuda maka siap-siap saja kendaraan berbobot 248 kg ini dibawa terbang. Kecepatan nol hingga 100 km/jam cukup dilibas dalam waktu kurang dari tiga detik. Tenaga ini oleh tim BMW diklaim lebih kuat sekitar 50% jika dibandingkan dengan model K 1200 RS


Untuk urusan suspensi, K 1200 S dipersenjatai inovasi terbaru. Revolusi itu terletak pada suspensi roda depan yang menggunakan teknologi suspensi elektronik yang disebut two parallel links dimana tidak digunakan suspensi garpu model teleskopik. Hasilnya dengan teknologi ini pengendara dijamin akan mendapatkan respons yang sensitif dalam hal pengendalian.


Untuk menjinakkan keliaran K 1200 S, BMW memasang sistem pengendalian rem produksi Motorrad Integral ABS yang dipasangkan dengan rem keluaran EVO. Dengan kedua senjata di kaki moge ini diharapkan pada segala kondisi kendaraan ini tidak akan kehilangan cengkeraman pada aspal saat melaju pada kecepatan tinggi.

Modifikasi Bajaj Pulsar


Siapa bilang sentuhan modifikasi tak bisa dilakukan pada Bajaj Pulsar. Bajaj Pulsar 200 keluaran tahun 2008 milik Mario Anthony misalnya, berkat modifikasi, tampilannya jadi garang layaknya moge. "Motor ini coba aku buat tambah kekar agar bisa lebih macho bila dibawa jalan," ungkapnya.

Bagaimana teknik modifikasinya? Sebagai langkah awal, kaki-kaki bawaan Pulsar pun bajaj pulsar modifikasisegera digusur agar membuat motor ini jadi lebih berotot. Swing arm bawaan pabrik yang terkesan ‘biasa saja’ dibuang dan digantikan dengan swing arm milik Aprilia RS 125 yang lebih berkesan sporty. Begitu pula dengan up side down depan yang juga diganti dengan milik Aprilia RS 125.

Tidak sampai disitu, pria yang bekerja di perusahaan elektrikal ini pun sepertinya memang kesemsem berat dengan semua part bawaan Aprilia RS 125. Terbukti, limbah dari motor asal Italia ini pun juga terlihat dicangkok di beberapa bagian mulai dari spartbor, foot step, lampu sein hingga velg besar Aprilia yang dibaluti ban karet dari Battlax pun terlihat serasi dengan desain Pulsar 200 berkelir merah ini.

Dan untuk menghentikan laju ‘si merah’ ketika berlari, Mario pun juga mengaplikasi piringan disc dari Aprilia yang bekerja sama dengan barisan rem buatan Brembo yang sudah terkenal ampuh menghentikan laju kendaraan.

Urusan kaki-kaki pun selesai. Kini Mario segera bergegas ke bagian bodi kendaraan yang menurutnya masih terlihat ‘kerempeng’. Untuk urusan ini, Mario pun mempercayakan semuanya pada rumah modifikasi Tauco Custom yang digawangi oleh Topo Goedel Atmodjo.

Di rumah modif yang berada di kawasan Kebagusan, Jakarta Selatan ini, motor asal India miliknya tersebut pun dibuatkan sebuah bodi mounting yang kekar untuk membuat motor ini tampak lebih berotot.

Tidak lupa, agar nuansa sporty maskin kentara, Topo pun ternyata juga membuatkan sebuah engine guard yang mampu melindungi bagian bawah motor milik pria berusia 31 tahun ini. "Konsepnya memang macho-minimalis, tapi masih ada beberapa bagian yang ingin saya rubah agar motor ini tambah kekar. Tunggu saja," ujar Mario penuh misteri.

Evolution Evaluation!

PDRM has bought 25 Mitsubishi Evo X to add into their line up.The Evos will be used in high-speed car chases, particularly in cases of carjacking, kidnapping and highjacking.

But this particular video here, is different (Video borrowed from Denesh Dmaniac, founded on The Clipping Point blog).



From my point of view (and evaluation, of course), it seems the Evo is damn fast! But well, that is an Integra and by the looks of it, its NA. The Evo is turbo with AWD, that shouldn't be a problem. You should read the comments posted at The Clipping Point blog.

I wonder if a Nissan GTR or a highly tune Supra can catch this beast. Time will tell. But kudos to the Integra driver for trying. You got a titanium ball dude by doing this.

Oh by the way, I wish you all Selamat Hari Raya, Maaf Zahir Batin to everyone. Please forgive me if I have done any wrong doing (lie, steal mad, angry or whatever) and please, be careful when driving. Remember the love one's and God. Plan your trip well. Tune your car too. Don't follow the above act.

gilrs kawasaki style

Kawasaki Ninja 250R menawarkan konsep sporty dengan menggusung mesin 249 cc, 4 langkah parallel twin, menghasilkan tenaga dan torsi yang cukup besar. Tenaga maksimum yang dihasilkan pada 11.000 putaran per menit (rpm) dan torsi maksimum yang dihasilkan pada 9.500 rpm, membuat performa N250R bak motor balap. Rasio kompresinya yang 1 : 11,6, menjadikan bahan bakar yang prima untuk Ninja 250R adalah Pertamax Plus. Penggunaan suspensi garpu telescopic 3,7 sentimeter (cm) di depan dan Uni-Trak di belakang membuat penapakan ban melekat erat di permukaan jalan dan penyerapan guncangan terjaga dengan baik. Selain itu, pendingin cair juga membuat suhu mesin tetap terjaga sehingga performa mesin tetap stabil, terutama pada saat melakukan perjalanan jarak jauh. Ninja 250R sangat responsif, sedikit putaran pada handel gas (akselerator) sepeda motor langsung melesat. Namun, jangan khawatir penggunaan sistem rem disc brake dengan piringan petal berukuran 29 sentimeter di depan dan 22 sentimeter di belakang serta caliper dual piston, di tangan pengendara terampil sepeda motor akan dapat diberhentikan pada saat yang tepat. Di luar segi performa, tempat duduk penumpang dilengkapi tutup sewarna bodi sehingga Ninja 250R tampak seperti motor single seater.

Finally..

I managed to transfer all the files from my Sony W800i handphone! Phew! This is another reason why I am lazy to blog...because I can't transfer pictures and stuff that I want to upload to this blog! My USB cable is busted, but then I found a Sony MemoryProDuo card reader and I can transfer the files I want by inserting the Magicgate memory card inside the reader (which I in thought it wasn't useful, how useless I am).

Now, its time for me to rant some stuff!

All of you should know, that Hari Raya is coming soon. This years preparation are simple unlike few years back. But once a year when Raya comes, my mum would ask me to buy some clothing or outfit stuffs to wear for Raya. It's a good opportunity for me to buy some stuff in my 2009 Wishlist (refer to them)...and I come; One Utama! Went there around 6.45pm and since its fasting month, I decided to go to BBQ Chicken Korean Restaurant at Oval. I've been craving for the food since I last visited Amar's blog and found myself drooling at the BBQ Burger pic he posted.

Instead of the burger, I ate this:

Jerk BBQ. RM15 bucks. That is a very reasonable price and the taste is wonderful. I would love to eat there any chance I get again!

After berbuka, its time for me to do some Raya shopping. Mind you, I rarely shop for clothes that much since I prefer to buy with my parents. Yes, I'm not a shopaholic like many girls do (sorry girls, had to say the truth). Fortunately, Tropicana Life shop has a sale going on that day, so I search and search...and...

Bought a new wallet from Tropicana Life...they are having a grand sale...my old wallet is like 5-6 years old, rotten, and smells...hahaha..

I also bought 2 pairs of jean from Tropicana Life and a KicKers flip flops. The reason why I bought 2 pair is because my bro wears mine sometimes! Sigh.

Oh yeah, the McDonald food down there is for sahur. Don't think otherwise. Haha.

Then I went back home, put my wallet nicely in my place and put all the plastic at the sofas. What a day to end a shopping trip..
