Outstanding Where is Kee Hin located eh? I mean near where?

Sell savings or insurance. No I'm not kidding, it's good money with residual income and you make your own time. Plus you psychology lessons may come in handy.

I would have do it if I had any selling skills. Instead I'm here in front of the computer pushing buttons.

Read here:

http://paultan.org/2006/01/13/waja-campro-vs-waja-4g18/

The gist of it, Campro has lower torque at low RPM and the infamous torque dip between the 2k to 3k RPM range.

Unless you plan to rev to 3.5k rpm and above constantly (bye bye FC), 4G18 is more suitable for daily urban driving.

I think there are other problems as well, but I should probably let someone more knowledgeable to answer.

[YODA] MMMmmmmm...listen to Steven, you should [/YODA]

I'm not knowledgeable at all, just know a bit of this and a bit of that.

The delay associated with Campro may be due to the Electronic Throttle Control, which is not present in 4G18. But I have not have the (mis)fortune of driving a Campro vehicle so I dunno how bad the lag is and how different it is from 4G18.

So where's the flux capacitor??

That exhaust manifold, you made it yourself??

Stick around, I don't drive a Saga BLM or FL/FLX yet I always post at their thread



That does sound like a good deal. Remember to do a thorough check of the car's condition, the maintenance record if you can and if the car have been in any accidents. Not to mention the JPJ blacklist.

Korean cars usually have notoriously expensive parts.


EDIT: Wait, don't the Neo also come with the Campro Engine?

CPS only after early 2009.

And dude, as mentioned by several people in another thread, avoid loaning up to 9 years, especially for a used car.

RM 33k With a 5 year loan and 10% D/P, you can still pay less than RM 600 in monthly installment.

From what you described, sounds about right, slightly cheaper actually. Bought my 2001 for 23k, spent a couple more grand to replace parts.

If it's someone you know, try to get maintenance record.

Good for you. Nothing beats owning that you paid for by yourself (Even if just partially la)

Keep the Waja and take care of it.

Added on October 19, 2011, 12:07 pmWell like I said, if you can get the maintenance record then you know what's been changed and what's not.

I change the timing belt, two pair of tulangs in the rear wheel, door handles, carpet, handbrake lever, belt buckle etc. Things like the timing belt are essential so I don't wanna risk having a worn belt in the car, others are more for aesthetics and comfort.

If the car never changed the fuel pump or fuel pump relay, I suggest that you change it. Both should be no more than RM600-RM700. That is one of Waja's most notorious component.

Oh I also got the dealer to change the engine oil before delivering the car.

A good mechanic is a must. I'm still looking for one...If you found one in KL or Cheras, let me know!

Good thing is, you know the seller. If anything go wrong....go burn down his house

EDIT: Just in case you misunderstood my previous post, most of the things that were change was preventative measure, not because they broke down.....well except the fuel pump relay that broke on the highway

No idea how good is Waja's handling / ride. Compare to my sis's Vios, my Waja's suspension feels hard, but more stable. On Connaught highway, the Vios tend to wobble at high speed, the steering is all over the place. My Waja steering is stiffer, but at least is stays still, no need to constantly adjust. Power....reasonable I guess. Wait til I save money to reflash ECU then I'll tell you again

I don't corner at high speed, so I'm not the best person to ask

Added on October 23, 2011, 3:06 amBtw, today found a bunch of ants nesting on my driver seat door hinge, WTF . Luckily no eggs (I think) .

sprayed some serai water to repel them, ended up drowning most of them instead.

This post has been edited by dares: Oct 23 2011, 03:07 AM

Don't feel so bad, more came back this morning

Now dunno where they're nesting. Under afternoon sun they hid in the car, in the evening all crawl out and have party on the roof and bonnet.

Gonna visit the car wash tomorrow.

Thanks for the suggestions. Washed my car yesterday, so far so good, though I'm not convinced they are completely gone. Luckily they have stayed out of the interior, so they don't bother me when I'm driving.

Too busy to bother this few days, well check again later.


Ya, with disco lights and booze. It's when there's a female in the mix when you REALLY start worrying.
