No problem man, if you got a money then its no problem. For Vitara the spares it not much hard to find unless if you wanna buy ssgti parts. I'm driving ssgti, eventhough the parts is hard to find but I still make it. I vitara have no problem at all with the enggine but fuel concumption is normal coz its a four wheel drive. If you want a save fuel consumption then you have to buy kancil. Does your friend own a vitara?, if yes then you can listen to him but if dont dont listen to rumous or unknowledgeable people. If they know about enggine then the know how the fuel consumption works. Think carefully dude...
