Does it means every time when need to pump, need to unscrew everything?

 

Well..if you install the anti-thief nuts then you have to unscrew them before head to the air pump station. That's why black color cap is good and keep it low profile if you do not want to lock it.

Nice review, but in Chinese only.

 

Curious on the test drive mention the bumpiness can improve by reducing rear tire pressure: 35-35-33-33.

Great review. looks likeTucson has got a lot of diff setup in term of features. This one has built-in TPMS but rim size is only 17" for all petrol version. Stock stereo does not have bluetooth either and it has foot brake rather than hand brake.

Ah... I see... but I rather not have the anti-thief type... too troublesome... need to top up air at least once every three months leh... must do more research...

well..you can install the internal sensor but you will need to ask the tire shop to install for you. But then you will need to do it every 2 years due to battery change. So the external one is easy to maintain but not very neat.

Sorry bro... you kind of lost me there... if I don't want the anti-theft type, means cannot buy the just screw down on the inlet valve type and just plug in the external meter into the cigarette lighter?

 

For those prefer to buy locally... but it's marked up quite high I think.

The video showing is 18" rim same as SR, might it be possible our have TPMS installed?

Just need to basic function so it's a lot cheaper to get it from China. It's a China product anyway.

My tire pressure after 15 mins on the road is 35-35-34-34. When cold is all 33 PSI.

It's a SEMA concept... SEMA is a US auto show where they do mods to cars... so it's a stock Tucson and they modded it... you can't buy this...

I think komoco screwed up wiring to the speaker. The right front speaker wires swapped with right back speakers, thus the problem....need to go back to service centre...arggh

How is the outcome? Does the speaker wiring swapped related to tweeter issue?

 

Need advice as I also notice RBE turn off immediately tweeter become alive. Need tuning? Thanks

COE bidding now underway......

 

Potential COE spike due to demands from easing by MAS.

Confirm cannot pass LTA... cos you need to send this in for full tests for compliance to our local safety rules... and the manufacturer must be involved. For SEMA cars, usually the manufacturer is involved but if it's not homologated for production, and it's a one-off, usually the manufacturer has no data for it, only the third party garage authorized by Hyundai to modify it. And to send for a separate one-off compliance testing will cost a fair bit I understand... you still need the third party garage to help you with documentation.

I mean it will be pretty outstanding... I have seen some RAVs significantly modified... definitely like this example... raised suspension with even the exhaust pipe upright at the A pillar... really fierce... seen like four or five over the last 10 years or so... I think those are legal mods... but I don't know how much they paid... their rear spare tire is mounted outside and it has a Hokkaido brown bear image on it... black on yellow image... not sure you see before on our roads before or not. Also got Suzuki Jimny.
