i did SG and i am really satisfied with it...according to the shop..no need to service or re-apply as long as we follow the washing method..the coating will last longer

Saper2 leh confirmkan tak Extended Warranty utk 3 tahun tu betul2 wujud?

i m thinking, since u had a price for this forte, y not use till ur installment finish?? or else, u will hv problematic with bank loan

this is true.. this procedure quite troublesome...

[quote=phil_,May 25 2010, 02:36 PM]
Don't sell at too low price. You may be the first to sell Forte and your price will be the benchmark for others

i tink for a 1.6 SX shud be around 70K rm dude. but if u sell to a second hand dealer guess u'll b getting 66~68K.
y sell and go for 2.0. u'll b wasting at least 10K.
use it until the 2 yrs warranty expired. then try n look for a 2.0 or 2.4 engine at kedai potong

[/quote]
the 2nd price i really have no idea...

[quote=mavericksam,May 25 2010, 03:05 PM]
better still... go for the 2.0l theta 2 turbo...

[/quote]

or maybe i will consider to change engine 1st instead of change car??

[quote=XionCity,May 25 2010, 03:06 PM]
or upgrade current 1.6L with BOFI

[/quote]

what is that bro.. any further information??

[quote=mavericksam,May 25 2010, 03:10 PM]
or port over theta 2.0t along with its 6sp gb (as in US sonatas)...

[/quote]
how much is it??? where can i get it?

[quote=ssek76,May 25 2010, 07:23 PM]
I salute u ! but i think u can consider other sugestion of changing engine!

[/quote]
yea maybe will consider change engine 1st.. i don wan be the 1st who sell my forty leh!

[quote=epo,May 25 2010, 08:39 PM]

[/quote]

Think think think.. no need in the hurry la bro.. 2.0 and 1.6.. difference so significant meh? If u alwiz travel outstation n need to be fast and furious on the road then u mah get 2.0, else in KL city driving.. alwiz jam only.. unless late at nite u come out show-show then its a different story la.. Government is introducing alot of increment that will burden the rakyat very soon.. if u have the budget then go ahead.. else hold ur horses first.

vaio before u sell 1.6 u can try what i did some lite mods
now i feel better not really miss the 2.0 already
even it 1.6 we can chase bm 5 to JB
TV cannot follow also so just do simple mod 1st before u sell

i did this http://www.myforteclub.com/forum/9-upgrade...ance-promo#1524

will get the car today...weeee!!!!

congratulations! how long u've waited?
1.6?

there is a significant difference in power between 1.6 and 2.0...........

the main advantage with more power is the acceleration........exactly what you need in stop start traffic jams.........there is a small difference in top speed, which one will normally never reach..........

the 2.0 turbo theta II is meant for US market only. Not sure if you could bring it in. As for the 6sp gb, you might have to wait... portability to Forte on the other hand, i am not too sure as this is meant for the larger mid size sedans like sonata and the upcoming optima.

BOFI ("Bolt On Forced Induction" if i am not mistaken) on the other hand is the more realistic option for you i guess... you would still have to wait for performance market to bring in these. Simple... but you would have to ensure that your current gb can take in the additional torque from this. if you are just gonna use this for normal drive and simple spirited ones, suggest you should try 1st stage turbos as these shouldn't push the figures too high till you needed more modding. You can try googling or ebay around...

Any tai kor modder please help as i am just an amature...

It depends on the branch or dealer you go. Some can get within 10 days and some more than 4 months

KAK? U want me to slaughter u?! I'm abang la.. No worries just kiddin! Minyak naik is unavoidable.. roadtax n ot sure.. Kan today ada discussion about subsidi.. which to keep and which to take away kan? I heard it on the radio. The gomen is smart now.. give rakyat a chance to speak for themselves first before they take action.


Pardon me.. Im a 1.5 wira owner and a 1.6sx forte owner. Wife drove the forte and said 'It's OK'. For me Forte is good enough and maybe Im used to my slow wira, so a 1.6sx Forte seems like good oredi. But for some ppl who have cars similar to 1.6sx Forte or higher sure will demand 2.0. Me myself is targeting mazda 3 sport 2.0 end of the year.. Anyway my remarks solely refer on the decision made by vaio on the speed significance. Seems like he is more concern on acceleration (not at start stop traffic jams), which 1.6sx truly kenot give. I think u r referring to pick up at cutting into ppl lane and overtake cars.. start stop at traffic jams not that bad kwa?
