now the cost of producing parts are cheaper compare to last time... china n taiwan got cheap labor maa...wah...in my days with 4g13p rm400 bucks i can buy only k&n filter and cleaning kit. Those days high cam was like 2-3k. This is just my thoughts, good and RELIABLE things wont be cheap.
Taiwan living standard is higher then us how can they afford to have cheaper labor ??????now the cost of producing parts are cheaper compare to last time... china n taiwan got cheap labor maa...
Economics baby!!!Taiwan living standard is higher then us how can they afford to have cheaper labor ??????
China no more cheap labor oridy, they go cheap through mass production only.
what it will happen??dun buy cheap ones laaaa, later the shaft canot tahan and god knows what happen to ur engine. cams are important moving parts of the engine and reasonably expensive for reasons.
Haha valves dont open when its supposed to? I'd love to see what happens alsowhat it will happen??
Haha I'd normally agree but tonight I feel like going into a detailed discussion :proud:imho, highcams should be the last thing to add since its not cheap. porting the head, ligthened the flywheel, skim engine head off 1mm, lightened crank pulley and bigger fuel pump....all these already give alot power gains.....and all these is prolly same price with a new cam. since sohc has good low end torque n respond, do these first (stage one mods)
agreed bro..tested toda lightened flywheel on b16..response super increase..the rev climb even faster...lose momentum??unless you climb mountain touge everyday...hehe..again n again n again n again, who said lightening flywheel and lcp will lose momentum ? better personally to test drive a fully lightened moving parts engine mods, before saying losing momentum....
sigh.......-_- gimme a break
hehe..skimmed and ported set you back around RM500-1000 de..depends on what you aiming for.some people opt for test bench flow bla3...hehe...i dun dare ask the cost also..Haha I'd normally agree but tonight I feel like going into a detailed discussion :proud:
Since the engine is already small right, I would try and get the power out of it first without losing and momentum a.k.a lightening the parts... after all theyre just a few grams off right?
Imo i'll probably do it in something like this:
1. Skim the head + Porting + Cams and cam pulley. After all youre going to take the head out, might as well install everything when its out right? Im not sure about labour charges if you take it out twice to get it skimmed and ported.
2. Then after im done with this, i'll leave the flywheel be UNTIL I need to change my clutch or gatal tangan hahahaha .
3. The crank pulley can be installed anytime, so its whenever I feel like go install lah
How much weight difference are aftermarket cam gears VS the ori's anyway?
IMO, there is no such thing as last mod...imho, highcams should be the last thing to add since its not cheap. porting the head, ligthened the flywheel, skim engine head off 1mm, lightened crank pulley and bigger fuel pump....all these already give alot power gains.....and all these is prolly same price with a new cam. since sohc has good low end torque n respond, do these first (stage one mods)
Well I was just saying right? I've never driven a 1.3 or 1.5 saga with skimmed flywheel so im just guessing :hmmmm: And what you mean " again n again n again n again", you didnt mention that nor did anyone what. Chill lah, not everyone is a mod king like you are. I've always had the idea that a below 1600cc engine if you skim the flywheel its going to lose momentum but gain speed faster also...again n again n again n again, who said lightening flywheel and lcp will lose momentum ? better personally to test drive a fully lightened moving parts engine mods, before saying losing momentum....
