tks yhlee12, wil check it out

hi bomberman, was lookin at the std built-in ICE and was thinking, how to upgrade the ICE? seems like there's no empty 'slot'? the SA also got this duh look on his face ->

hahah
and also my fren's older accord, apparently the aircond + ICE is on the same circuit board or something like that?
sorry if it's a n00b question!

Hei, think not too worry... forte not tat "advance" you can change your HU fascia and ICE to large lcd module.. just like in china and kr luxury version.. Know already so bros here are doing that.. so..

The 1.6 version didnt come with any cruise control... and i dun think u will take the risk to install from the 3rd party supplier...
If u really want to have the feature, maybe u can call the NAZA and ask for Options install... maybe they got the optional...
Nowadays, most of the new car is very difficult to upgrade ur stock HU to the other HU... Example like P 308, u don't even dream to change the HU, because the all the electronic cables were connected with multifunction. (They don't know named it what?)

haiya.... they copy bulat2 from the kia-cerato.com page laaa
there's a remark in that page:
124/6300, data for general market
126/6300, data for eastern europe
why different market different measurement one ar?

cos different market uses different gearbox too.. typically for what i know.. it may be due to LHD, RHD mounting.. too..

how do u guys feel about the aircon? 1st time test drive as driver was ok. quite cool. but when i sat as passenger 2nd time around it was very hot at the back. of course it was very hot weather and car was parked outside in the hot sun. even after test drive finish still the back wasn't cool enough even though air con was max.
our sg bros managed to solve this problem by insulating the aircon piping like this...
http://sgkiaclub.proboards.com/index.cgi?a...4&page=1#265020seems this helps a lot. possible to diy?
Did tat insulation, helps but after some time youll forget that.. under hot sun, youll cannot run ac with minimal temp.. it will blow hot air.. set at 22~ (23 after insulation) for optimum coolness.. mine you too passanger side a/c is much cooler!

no need.. we have our jimmy there!
famous man!! haha
no.. i do not agreed.
that day i drove my gf's myvi to test drive... (latest myvi SE)
after go in to the car and plug in the pendrive..
the sound is amazing.. my gf also agreed on that.
and it can even read chinese ID3...
ermm.. maybe not...
maybe he's still in meeting room suffering with some marketing team...
wahaha~!
yes.. think many agree.. forte stock ICE is among the best.. unless you are hardcore.. else dun bother change speaker to a mid range speaker.. just do up your door panels sound insulation..and instantly!!! it becomes even better..
oh.. btw, you guys tested if it display simplified chinese characters?
Added on December 1, 2009, 1:52 pmoh, also to update, i tested forte to 18*.. with allowance to go still (tested a few up hills roads too) think 17" stock pickup is average at best from 110 and up.. its not as fast as i would have thought.. (dun leave it to "D") manual is different case.. but youll be dragging alot.. on 2nd and 3rd gear..
So genting drifting kaki.. you MUST go for 2.0 i am afraid!! haaa... 1.6 runs but not with 17" its not fast haaa...
but 1 thing for sure..its v.v.stable..at high speed.. but beware of cross wind.. it tends to affect this car noticeably (i.e. overtaking container trucks..)
