Well, selling price shall be calculated as selling only. Interest rate differs and it is not fair to compare promo and second hand car rate. It is only fair f we sum up all the charges and fees as total selling.

There was a post from Bro Iz saying that the 4 speed, 2010 - 2011-ish car (I cannot remember), not registered and new, is selling at 6% depreciation rate from RM 81500. So this one in mudah is not normal. 9 months car. 20k difference.

Wondering how much it will cost for 2.0 Forte..anyone? Quite interesting if the price is right. But if it did cost us 13k for this turbo kit..too much i believe. I better wait until 2014-2015 when our fuel uses Euro 4/5 standard & buy a factory-fitted turbo car instead.

That car is 1.6 Forte..test drive that car might be a good way to justify its worthiness.

Hahaha... with current G, no chance we can get quality fuel so fast bro...

Low quality fuel - sell cheaper - more people buy - more profit
High quality fuel - sell higher - less people buy - less profit

Maybe during that time ur age aldy 55yrs old, not suitable to play "turbo" anymore... Kekeke...

Has any one use Voltage Stabilier on their car?

What is the effect after installing? I know nuts about electrical so I am not so sure If I should mess with it.

Those who have installed, please share some insight with me.

For modders, their motto is 'Mod Don't Scared, Scared Don't Mod'. Wait till after warranty over every fire on the car already died off.

Never used one before, but i have heard form various parties, They say brighter headlights, louder audio. Performance wise, VERY SUBJECTIVE... one of my friend swears by it saving got improvement.

If you have alot of audio equipment, den no problem.
If you wanna buy for its performance "enhancements" then better save the money to mod other parts firsr =S

i did
initially i only install grounding cable because the seller selling full copper gc ( can only use naked eyes to justified n it really looks like full copper la)
during installation, i itchy itchy n install together with the vs

my fren install both vs n gc from the same seller. he told me he feels brighter light, cooler aircond n his batt last till more than 2.5 yrs (maybe due to he always drive on hiway, always recharge)

to me, i din see brighter light (maybe too old, eyes not sharp), i cant feel cooler aircond (maybe too thick skin n fats), cant judge on batt yet (only 1 yr old). anyway, i did feel more responsive (quite significant), rev faster (slightly), no fuel saving. after all, it is very subjective coz all these are feeling only tongue.gif

Mind sharing where do you get yours from?

I am a little skeptical about what this VS can do for my current car.

The VS is said to provide improvement for the below:-

- For Auto car, gear shift smoother
- Light (Head, cabin, tail, etc...) become brighter and less dim when air-cond compressor kicks in.
- Reduce sudden car slow down when you rev and at the same time Air Cond compressor pumping.
- Increase battery life span.
- Improve ICE audio clarity and bass because your AMP needs clean and stable voltage
- Engine turns to be quieter and lower vibration because the power from spark plug is enough and misfire is reduced.
- Increase engine lifespan by reduce carbon residual inside your engine chamber and also increase engine performance
- Increase life span of car ECU, Car Player, AMP, and other electrical or electronic components.
- Improve Fuel Consumption

What I have observed from my current car is as below:-

- For Auto car, gear shift smoother -> The 6 speed already very smooth. I will not realise that gear has changed, except from 1st change to 2nd gear. That is also because of teh sound, not the jerking

- Light (Head, cabin, tail, etc...) become brighter and less dim when air-cond compressor kicks in. -> I do not feel any compressor kicks in

- Reduce sudden car slow down when you rev and at the same time Air Cond compressor pumping. -> I do not feel ant compressor kicks in

- Increase battery life span. -> May be this will work for the battery but car s still new to determine

- Improve ICE audio clarity and bass because your AMP needs clean and stable voltage -> I do observe some zit zit zit noise from a certain song from my stock audio

- Engine turns to be quieter and lower vibration because the power from spark plug is enough and misfire is reduced. -> Engine is quiet at idling, at least in the cabin. Wife complained about high noise at the outside. No vibration observed.

- Increase engine lifespan by reduce carbon residual inside your engine chamber and also increase engine performance -> Maybe

- Increase life span of car ECU, Car Player, AMP, and other electrical or electronic components. -> Maybe

- Improve Fuel Consumption -> Maybe

- Lighter throttle? -> Maybe

So there are so many maybe. I am not sure if this is worth a try.

I have not done much research too. I just came across ghis sales thread and selling the VS alone, thread goes as much as 132 pages. There is no bad review at all from his customer. So this one cannot be a fake.

I will want to try this out, but not sure if there is any instant effect on new car. In long term wise, this might help, so I will need to judge.

Another war? With who?
