saga LMST sure its good choice, compare satria coz
- satria injection new model use siemens ecu n all parts electronic parts like distributer, throttle body etc are xpensive (but for old model use Mitsu wiring that's another whole other story if both using 4g15/3 engine)
- 4g1x series engine seem easy to maintain, also the parts for carbie n mitsu injection also cheap..
- the FC quite awesome, even my 95 carbie iswara can get rm10=80km normal driving..
- moderate built quality compare it price.. n satria parts sometimes can be xpensive too.. eg like roof lining, doors trimming, rear bonet etc..

one with power steering, another one no power steering maybe?
coz from wht i heard, saga with power steering also hv alloy wheel, if no alloy wheel then there is no power steering.. dunno this is true or not..

EFI mitsu > mitsu carbie > EFI siemens coz
- siemens parts really xpensive
- cant be adjust for siemens ecu
- carbie parts easy to tune n adjust n also the parts cheap
- carbie for 4g1x series (it is a good carbie, many old car like datsun etc use it coz it save fuel n hv power when need it) been told by my friend that hv datsun
- there's a lot of performance parts for mitsu EFI engine.. n u can easily tuned it

maybe more, wait for sifu's here reply then.. correct me if i'm wrong..

FC = its quite ok
comfortable = that's hard to say coz u can feel all cheap tin sound at rainy day or when u drive it through 'becak' water.. hehe
aircond = any car hv cool aircond, u need to regularly service n add oil at the compressor
manual = yup, the pick-up quite ok, not feel underpowered at all.. coz that engine tech exist since 80's so cant complaint ler..
power = not that power but it has a lot of potential to mod.. stock is more to reliable so cant expect more..

if it isnt a good car, why there is still people use it eg like old nissan sunny.. hehe

well as long u keep it stock condition sure it hv better comfort compare kancil..
new abs n spring (just buy oem enough oredy, its not that xpensive maybe near kancil abs perhaps?)

if u wanna know, even new vios n city use same system suspension as saga n old sunny but they hv more proper research so they come out with more comfort setup even tho they use old suspension system.. u know why they use old system? coz it cheaper to built (coz not complicated design) n easy to maintain..

not like perdana, camry n altis also civic, they use more complicated system n hv even more higher level of comfort.. hehe for luxury car that even higher of course..

yup, no prob ler.. hehe

better car sure cost a lot more bro, that just for temporary.. n hv to wait quite of sometime.. even me at TS place cant take it anymore..

for me myself using motorcycle most of day, but certain time i use my wira which the FC r big different n also need to pay for tols too, but i enjoy more when i drive my wira more..

Added on July 9, 2010, 12:52 amerm.. why not make ur kancil as comfort as u can?
use mira seats (trxx seats quite comfort u know), good abs n spring, combine with mira roof cover n door trimming to get better noise insulation.. but still it's a kancil ler.. hehe

haha.. coz that greedy attitude we can archive higher goal.. anyone want good car with low FC n cheap to maintain, but becoz of that we try almost everything to get there.. for sure someday it appears.. haha

that can fix one..

yes, this engine do hv good FC.. even after more then 20 years of tech still doing fine.. its simple n engine n coz it simple it easy to maintain n parts sure cheap...

as muffler, suggest use OEM ler.. the larger muffler OEM gave sure increase FC a bit coz not suitable with engine power even they know that, they still done that coz wanna style a bit.. huhu

engine is the most important, other come 2nd..

its mean its not 'ngam' ler.. small engine use small muffler coz its have weak exhaust flow, like turbo engine which hv strong exhaust flow if use small muffler n piping sure the power being restricted.. so same to small engine use too big muffler..

its like ur body, u hv large body, u also must have large leg n foot right, if not u will feel unstable (also mean not suitable)...

from saga u change to honda, that another whole different story ler.. honda even hv same engine in diff model, the characteristic of them differ according izzit sedan, sports car etc..
same goes with toyota engine 3SGE/3SGTE engine, various model use that engine too n all hv differ tork and hp..
but for simple engine like 4g13/15 hard to done on it (differ hp n tork) coz its too basic..

maybe the engine code the same but the tuning is different, eg like evo3 vr4 turbo n vr4 NA, all use same engine code but has different length of inlet manifold, different design of xtractor, n ecu tuning also differ.. so from all that that effect the exhaust flow..

strong or not strong flow i also dont know..

if i want to xplain all i also not know all , try google it..

yup... agree, maybe the longest manufactured engine... coz the engine since 80's..
