Z-stab

[EventH]

any comments on the review on z-stab in wheels asia?

 

The test was on a sti and a picnic .. .4-6% improvement in fuel economy (over 1 month period). Looks promising.

For my manual 04 N16 Sunny, no noticeable improvement in power or fuel consumption.

Z-stab usually werks better for auto cars, cos it will affect the gear change too.

Anyway Eventh, i think dere's old threads b4 on Z-Stab so maybe u wld like to read up on them to noe more what oury bros here have to say bout it

I got a Z-Stab in my auto matrix and a E-REV in my auto Elantra. Basically no diff to me even if i take out. So i jus leave it there and the light blinking (mine old version)...

 

However, my engine idling is awfully low.. estimate around 600+ i think.. Like wanna die.. not sure if it's the VS that is affecting.

I have one installed, is very effective indeed ! but only in my dreams !

[EventH]

ha

 

I was looking for fresh comments.

 

The older comments were based on pre production models. Maybe they did something to improve the current models. Can we trust trust the wheels asia reviews.

[Optra]

Normally i don't read reviews cos there don't tried it on my ride, I always " buy try and Die "! maybe it works on others but at least not on mine Bro ! But seems to me others also not very ! Sorry if I am wasting yr time .

Look out at their website...for their next meet....

 

You can ask them to plug the Z-Stab on your car to test drive.... :)

 

Well for me it has improvement on the responds....

 

 

For your reference... I had tested the prototype and the recent commercial product....

 

and applied on my manual gear box... :)

Just take these 'reviews' with a pinch of salt. I have yet read bad reviews from local car mags.

[EventH]

That's why must check with real users ..

 

There is always the question that if such products are really effective,

why don't manufacturers put them in as a stock item.

 

If a product can really save 5% in FC over stock ... it will usually pay for itself in 6mths to 1 year.

actually sometime just wonder....will it have any side effect on a long-run be it z-stab, pivot, etc??.....

The problem is there are mixed reviews so you will have to take a chance on the product.
