QUOTE(outpace @ Aug 25 2012, 09:53 AM) Possible but more hassle because you have to dismantle the timing belt. By the way it's called camshaft pulley, crankshaft pulley is the one at the bottom and the only reason to change that to an aftermarket version is to lighten the weight therefore allowing the engine to rev slightly faster and responsive. Get an adjustable cam pulley then you can test it out yourself and it's fun too if you know how to D.I.Y. Price is not really expensive, around $150. |

If your engine is healthy, no worries on that Go and get lightweight 15" rims |

What is the stock piping size for wira 1.6 yr 2000 thomas cup edition and does it comes with catalytic converter? I am still using stock piping so can anyone recommend a good size for a lighter feel of the engine, revs faster and responsive? But please no sacrificing any low rpm power.

If you want better handling, if you can afford adjustable, go for it. |

QUOTE(ciohbu @ Aug 26 2012, 10:02 AM) opppsss. typo those cost over 1k i think they replacing new set of valves and also removing the oil pan to access the conrod so that they can replace the piston rings as well. Then might as well replacing the conrod bearing also. That's why it is expensive.some top overhaul list is scary and cost over 1k.. hmmm so far no smoke from my exhaust.. |
