Honda Civic RS 2022 FE / The Ultimate Test / Genting Hill Climb / 182 PS, 240 Nm / YS Khong Driving

2 жыл бұрын

Finally, the long wait is over - we managed to get a Honda Civic RS to do the ultimate test - on our favorite hill climb road, Genting Highlands.
A longer wheelbase, a wide stance, 18-inch wheels, Michelin PS4 treads, a SPORT mode, and Sports type paddle shifters - will this combination work well?
This time, of course we climbed all the way to the top, and the video is unedited from the bottom to the top, so you can see first hand everything that happened during this adventure.
The suspension is stock, Macpherson struts in the front and a multi-link arrangement at the rear - it worked very well, and the extended 2735mm wheelbase seems to have a positive effect on the handling.
What is important is that the overall package works well, and the result is a car that is relatively easy to handle.
Please do watch this video, and let us have your comments below.
Also, if you want to book this vehicle, you can do so at shop.yskhongdriving or you can send a whatsapp to 016 3350609.
Finally we at YS Khong Driving would like to extend our thanks to our friendly Honda Damansara 3S dealer, MH Prestige Auto Sdn Bhd for entrusting us with the Honda Civic RS.

dont forget the PS4 contributes a lot to give that neutral non understeer handling, with that tyre even last gen altis handles quite well. also while people complain about that cvt, it actually delivers if you asked for it with minimum drama and i believe is the right transmission choice for all who dont race and/or heavy tune their car

The Sport, Normal, and Eco are on the console behind the gear stick. Not on the gear stick. See my intro, it shows that part for a bit.

@ykchoi99 2 жыл бұрын

@Seng Wei Ti supposingly from what I know is they fine tuned your EPS according to the 17" size. So if retrofit a 18" to it you might not get the optimal ride and handling as for tuned for the 18". However, you may still replace your original 17" tyre with the PS4. The size for your 17" would be 215/50R17 (if I'm not mistaken). So you may just replace PS4 with the same size just like I did. ;) Hope it clarifies for you. ^^
