westcoast EK3

Luckily i found a Recon one. otherwise It will get a week to rectify. one more thing Can I repair previous booster ???? As per the service manual they not recommend for repaired booster... only recommendation is to replace with a new one (The same thing said by the mechanic) but any how can i have any chance to repair and re use it ?????

No.. it was not from an ES8, It was from an ES1, but its was perfectly fitted for the ES8. (even the booster diameter quite large than the ES8 one) only problem was i couldn't use my previous master cylinder as well. I had to buy and fixed complete unit. Booster + Master cylinder complete unit cost me Rs 12000/- Labour - 1250/- Brake oil - 750/-

Today I went to the garage. found that leak in the booster, Replace the the booster with Recon one. work done within 2hrs. Cost me arnd 14k...... Now its completely ok :-)

Thanx davy and Rumesh ......will come back with the results

I have done the 1&2 results were normal..... For 3&4 the paddle comes up immediately... so its may be a leak in the booster.....one more thing I have noticed,,,, when i press the break peddle the RPM get increased... Is this Normal ???????

Ok. I will do the test as u said...will come back with the observations ...tnx

Yes ... its still stiff when the car is on idle,,

Guys, I am having an issue with breaking of My ES8 (2001-VTEC). The issue is continuing since 2days back. The ABS indicator is not showing any faults. If the problem with ABS sensor, it should indicate in the cluster know...Am I correct???? The brake pads are OK. When I break at around 100Km/h, it’s suddenly reducing the speed to 20-10km/h, which feels normal and no issue at all. But from 10km/h to slow it down to 0km/h, I have to stand on the break paddle, which is very hard to paddle and ultimately hitting the floor board (This was not happening before). While paddling the last moment I feel the car try to drag itself for some distance. Before I take it to a mechanic, need your guy’s comments/Recommendations Thanks in Advance..

Mugen lip is quite wide and maintain same width along the length (refer pic) RS lip is the lip come with ek3 VIRs

Waxing will protect your car paint... water will easily slipawy from your car body.. Best Wax ..mmmm try 3M, 999, Abro, Eagle etc.. You can do it from MAG @ katugasthota, Willies @ Peradeniya, or Priyantha @ mawilmada

Go for a GD8...yeah it do 15km/l its a good car and a nice looking car... you can get a one around 3.2 - 3.5m (unregistered) but you will not get any Sparewheel with new FIT it has a gud luggage space than most hatch backs

yeah.. agree..SL have stupid market trend..some people dying for toyota.. all they want TOYOTA..TOYOTA.. they even cant think about other brands... they don't want to compare options with other makes...recently i saw a corollla 121, without having power shutters & power mirror...who the idiot spend 2.8m to buy these kind of cars, even without thses basic function...but some people still buying those...as per my opinion people should bother about both options & fuel consumption , when buying a car.. fuel consumption means average fuel efficeincy respect to engine capacity...(other than saying 800cc car do more km/l than 1500cc car)
