Cheap to maintain
Cheap to repair
And also sometime you can repair yourself.
Hahahahahaha

Not like now new car even change a spark plug is a big project.

Probably their aim is that even after warranty still have to send back to them for service.......lol

 

[parakey]

At JB I had ask a Half cut 4g93 sohc include install Rm6800 is quite costly.....to me lah. Hahahahahah

That cost more than what you paid for the car?

Engine might not
Gb maybe

I had swap out alot of thing already sell off and get something is like I need to start agn. So I rather juz stick with this car better

How much cost you to swap to a manual?
The problem I feel for the wira is,it is not enough gear for the car(auto one
5 speed is ngam ngam for the car,since gear 5 rarely use on small road.

This was some time ago and I found a friend who wanted to swap to auto. So we just traded our GBs and paid our friend the mech (50-50) RM500. Means I paid only 250 for the swap.

but if he GSR swap with 4wd autobox and 1.5 bar of boost, he'll be smiling all the way to his ears.

debatable.

Juz asking
After changing new rotor & pad thcar stopping power is much more better just when going to 80 & 90 km/h then suddenly stop the braking force is abit soft. Is like you know the car is stopping but you don't have the confidence the car can totally stop that kind of feeling.

Is it upgrade my rear drum to a 1.6 & 1.8 disk make it better or swap the brake line to steel hose type better?

BTW, what is the brand of the rotor and pad that you changed?

For pads, if you don't mind dusty rims can try Trestor Advantage, heard they are back in the market.....
