looking forward to wait for seanoys answer

me too on the 6 speed
as i was surveying between the 2010 avante, the current forte 2.0
while waiting for the upcoming forte 2.0 6 speed and avante 2011 (late 2011) as my additional option

i also heard from dealer same thing that the car available by end Jan.
BUT, if the car available by end Jan, aren't it suppose to have some review how the new 6 speed looks like? normally marketing will do 1st to attract ppl attention ma..if right now there's no marketing campaign about new forte, i dont think the car can ready by end Jan. Even Honda Insight available for booking now but they only can get car earlier by March.

hold on, does the earlier posting on 6-speed is meant for Forte 2.0 (sedan) or Koup 2.0?
as i know Koup 2.0 (6-speed also) is coming on Jan 2011
that's something to be clarified

In the process of fixing the power cushion buffer! Will upload pics and results later

Avante will be launched in July 2011...that's confirm ald..

hmmm... a chat with some managers from hyundai managers and they cannot confirm the date yet
anyhow, i'm more than happy to wait for this if the price is right with better spec and it arrive on jul 2011
just need to wait for the forte 6-speed (sedan) and compare to this 2011 avante

just wait January coming lorr.. only few days more..
but the 6 speed sure coming one.. heard 1.6 also 6 speed.

i might getting new avante and trade in my forte....MAYBE only...and also if Hyundai boss can take my forte in high price....i willing 2 do it..

preparing to install the power cushion buffer


forte's spring and shock absorber..the guy installing said my spring damn dirty and oily..so he used soap and wash off all the dirt and oil..

installing the power cushion buffer..

rear wheel needs to be taken off..









done!

Results.. cornering and turning felt more stable.. no more sinking feeling.. almost no floating felt when going over small bumps fast.. its a good buy for the price i paid. dont expect a biggggg huggeee diff for just RM120. i strongly recommend this as i really can feel the car handling became better and the seller is a great guy! anything you guys can call him and he can meet up at your house or petrol station. i did mine in my house

hmmm....wat size is it?? i think got size A,B,C,D right?

MAYBE oni ma....if trade in price low, even though price OK for avante, i wun trade also....

He use size B for both front and back..he asked me whether I want to use size A which is bigger but he said it'll be stiffer compared to B..since our forte already quite stiff..I install B lo really good buy!

yeah heard same thing to. If you go to myforte FB, someone there claim that he will get 1.6EX 2011 Forte 6 speed

then wat's the other good things abt size A, other than stiff?? @@@??? means putting on power cushion will make our ride MORE BUMPY????

forte FL already out. got SA posted in FB
up 4K for 1.6SX, 5K for 2.0SX

basically i think this buffer thingy makes the spring higher so less stress is on the spring.. so when we go over bump cant feel as much as before.. not bumpy.. more solid feel lar.. like merc bmw etc.. but for RM120.. hahah dont expect to be like BMW or merc. just FEEL like it only..

mind sharing the link?
any spec being reviewed there?
thanks
