Maroon 2001 Kenari Ezi user here. Used to be my bro's car. Took it from him a year ago. Currently stage by stage reviving it.

Just throw in a K3-VE last month blush.gif

seriously, a piece of advice,

Kelisa will have a better fc then Kenari as it's lighter by 30kg (correct me if i'm wrong).

for 100km traveling everyday, i wouldn't suggest you to take both of Kenari or Kelisa. Myvi will be a slightly better choice, best if sedan.

as for your Wira 1.5 A fuel consumption, it's because of the 3 speed auto, not suitable for highway cruise if you're hoping for good fuel consumption.

major concern specifically on Kenari,
engine mounting
front absorber mounting
rear absorber
aircond

wow K3-VE, that's my last resort. any other mod done?  tongue.gif
latest update on my Birdie, car gonna be ready by next week  rclxm9.gif
parts changed:
valve cover + gasket
timing belt kit + aux belt set
coolant + water pump + all coolant hoses + thermostat
atf + filter + sump gasket
power steering fluid
engine mounting
steering rack bush
front right lower arm

respray subframe with aerosol paint as rusty spotted  sad.gif

preventive maintenance + oil leak + service mileage reached for atf and timing belt = costing me a big bomb  cry.gif

now betting my luck on engine oil sump and flywheel oil seal  sweat.gif

nothing much.. just getting started icon_rolleyes.gif
got all the front part changed (engine/gearbox/aircondition/front brake disk&caliper/meter)

the original engine got all kind of problems, and im kinda sick of it shakehead.gif
btw anybody know if kenari with k3ve needs rear brake disk to endorse? last time i checked with few people, all of them said no need. now i confuse already cry.gif

I think it's a vented 234mm diameter disk.. cant find much detail on the spec. sweat.gif

how much does it cost for rear disk brake system? hmm.gif

Anyway just passed JPJ inspection for PG10. Need to go for puspakom next. please let it pass also icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

With stock rear absorbers and no bars, it is quite insane yo sweat.gif

Silverstone Powerblitz 1800 and Falken Ziex 326? you'll need some much much better tire then us as your birdie have around 60% more power then us.
Any good tyre recommendations? I'm a noob when it gets to car tyres, really sweat.gif

10 years old is lidat 1. Unless u want to spend money to replace parts, if not u sell away. But can't get a good price for this condition. My birdie already more than 10, but i always service regularly, replace defective part with original 1. I dun see anything bothers me so far. I like this car becoz of 1 thing: Save petrol.  thumbup.gif

how far can your birdie go? wanted to know the benchmark for normal kenaris. auto/manual?

my K3 auto full tank RM75 can go till around 450++ KM only. don't know if thats considered decent or rather poor doh.gif
quite concern about this since my weekly mileage is around 600KM sweat.gif

perhaps i always stuck in traffic jam sweat.gif
btw all you guys get 450km++ for a full tank?
are you guys driving a manual?
those figure is impression for me if you are driving an auto as my birdie is only manage to get max 310km per full tank rclxub.gif
*
Mine is auto. and always stuck in traffic jam. batu caves - klang daily via mrr2-LDP-Federal-Kesas (110KM+- daily). u know how the traffic is during peak hours yawn.gif
but again, maybe due to the engine, hence why i was able to get around 450+KM per full tank?
