Lee, will likely going for the same, went to see the same sales guy just now and he showed me all the films.. Since they have my options of colour, i might proceed smile.gif

cool! i met his boss when i was there i think... the boss said the sample for RC70 was an old one (greenish tone), and asked one of the guys to change the sample to the bluish film. at least the price given is something i can accept lo tongue.gif

I was considering sylphy too before Forte launch. Two weeks ago i checked with ETC over the phone, they offer 6-7k discount.
Might be able to negotiate for more discount for group buy. Oopss... out of topic and wrong thread, sorry tongue.gif
*
hehe i considered tat car before... i think they should be able to give discount up to 8k.

Different la bro ! I do googling again on KIA History... The design of KIA emblem change from time to time to suite the trend.. The Spectra K logo is more then that.. It is original KIA logo.. But, K logo king long.. Is belong to King long vehicle..Just my 2 cents.. Still try to find the best for my Forte
*
it's an aftermarket product for car modding... they may just look similar...

can always stick back the OEM KIA emblem... m planning to do tat icon_rolleyes.gif

Already do some research for other options including Sylphy, Lancer, Civic 2.0/1.8/Hybrid, Altis 1.8, Avante.

avante would be a good choice if u dun mind the slightly dated looks of it. priced closest to forte n sharing same wheelbase.
anyway hope u'll just hang in there for a little bit more... i'm sure u'll be happy with the 2.0 when it comes

As for me, i dont like the NAZA branding and i just want to make it looks exactly the same as the Forte in Korea (with sharkfin antenna)  icon_rolleyes.gif

When I was changing the NAZA emblem to KIA emblem, i have taken some photos and planned to come up with a step by step DIY that will benefit the rest cos I believe many people here would want to change the NAZA emblem to KIA, K or whatever emblem. So here you go and hope that helps biggrin.gif

I am really speechless now... really going to give up on Naza. My another car's SA from Nasim promised me ready stock for the car I am checking out then only placed booking.. 2 days after I placed booking and just now.. called me and said just received email from KL HQ.. no car until March and somemore.. have to follow new car price that going to announce. Naza Sucks.. Booked Forte.. they cannot promise when got car.. then now booked a 407.. promised everything before booking and now tell me different story... Want to spend money also so hard.

for those who have alignment issue and if you're near to PJ area, worth go to Jalan Tandang for 1st service + alignment fix.

did mine and they only took 30mins to fix the alignment compared with puchong which sucks! in puchong they never able to fix the alignment when i sent the car for 1st service. did 2nd appointment and they took more than 4 hours and still cant fix them. this problem is not me only that face it, got one fella on FB also facing the sucks service in puchong.

*
good! will go there next time since it's nearest to my house... did my tinted around that area also.. haha
supposed to do 1st service there but got it done in ipoh instead... lucky they fixed my alignment issue also (though mine not serious).

maybe u wanna observe for another few weeks cause i think fortelover's alignment issue came back after her 1st service.

have read in some car magazines before that generally TSER should be in the range of 45% - 55%

no such thing as TSER >60%

anyway i'm hoping that the stock glass will also contribute in the overall cabin temperature reduction since they claimed that there's certain percentage of IRR block on the glasses biggrin.gif

QUOTE(4te @ Jan 5 2010, 08:28 PM)

If there is a TT for Penang members, I would like to do a test on tinting ... compare the tint quality by doing:

1. set the aircon to auto, no outside air circulation and 24 degree (so the test doesn't take too long)
2. park 3 Fortes with different tint (one should be with only the stock tint) under direct hot sun for an hour or two
3. start engine and on the auto aircon at the same time for all 3 Fortes
4. Record the time it takes for the aircon to reduce to 6 bars, 3 bars and 1 bar

Then we can have the true result of the stock tinting and other branded tinting  icon_rolleyes.gif

hahaha... can do during TT session in desa park city laugh.gif

It is intermittent and i will only hear it when the car is moving >90km and when i slowing down to the traffic light. I only noticed the sound since yesterday. First i thought it was from the speaker but it still can be heard even i off the audio...

I have "tried" something today : i have removed the white/blue plastic sticker which still sticked at my driver's door. And guess what, the sound is disappear and i still can hear some light rattle sound from one pasenger door which the sticker still there. I experience this for 100Km distance i have travelled today. Will continue to monitor! For those who experience the rattling sound, is it u still leave ur sticker on the doors?
*
i've taken out all the plastic stickers n covers the very 1st day i brought back the car, but still can hear the sound... anyway, it's intermittent, so unless it's known issue elsewhere otherwise really dunno how to tell those SC ppl...

it's in the lower end of the 'to do' list, although the naza logo really spoil my mood at times tongue.gif

phelix K logo - 105
sugen KIA logo - 135
ffte K logo - 85

i'm planning to buy whole set of emblems (front + rear + 4 wheel center caps) from the ebay seller... less than 220
interested? icon_idea.gif

the wheel caps are slightly different from 4te's one... cause those appeared in singapore forte n generally silver ones, while the one i'm looking at is closer to the naza stock caps, black background with KIA words.

personal preference lo icon_rolleyes.gif

I also plan to buy 2.0L, but the main problem is petrol subsidy ....

damn ... I hear the news maybe 2.0L not have subsidy ...
*
whatever system that comes out, will be full of loop holes. my guess is that only cars with 1300cc engine and below will get full subsidy, which i hope will not be the case.

1.6 cars like ours also might not get full subsidy... 2.0, maybe none...

on a side note, saw banners stating mazda 2 is open for booking. price below 80k. will this new car pull potential buyers from forte? cool2.gif

about the subsidy of fuel...
if i'm not mistaken reading from paultan..
1500cc below gets full subsidy (remain 1.80)
below 2000cc gets half subisdy (should be 1.95)
while 2000cc above no subsidy (should be RM2.10)
*
if 1500cc is the cut off point, then too bad, bad news for us lo... the T & H mass market car owners will be laughing to the petrol station.
well, we'll know in 4 months time tongue.gif
