That sounds dirty.

With the i30n possibly coming to Malaysia as Sime Darby is displaying it in KLIMS18 to gauge public interests . Would Mazda want to fight with what is the current potential king of hot hatch killer?

That is the question of whether an MPS version will exist or not with stiff competition from Japan in the form of Civic Type R and i30n from Korea.

It is just business logic to do whatever is profitable.

Why make a souped up hatch just when 2% of the market will actually buy it. They should know their game well enough.

Obviously, money first. Aspirations later.

The previous MPS was also a CX7 motor if i am not wrong?

Aftermarket mods, anything goes. Even a 4-rotor setup.

The soot buildup on Di engines on valves cannot be helped i guess as there is nothing being injected through the port.

That is why Toyota went with their D4-S to curb the problem of soot buildup on the valves.

I heard Inokom has no intention to CKD the Mazda 3 in the kulim plant.

The sales level are too low for them to be interested in CKD'ing the car. They rather focus on making popular models as they not only cater for MY market but also some exports to nearby countries.

I thought the SPCCI engine works something like a diesel? It depends on igniting the fuel by methods of high compression but sets it off with a little bit of spark over very lean fuel mixture.?

Supercharge and turbocharge is actually more or less the same. The volume it can push is based on the design of the blower (supercharger) or compressor (turbo) instead.

The main difference is one is crank driven and the other exhaust gas driven. Supercharger reacts more linear and quite similar to NA type of feel while a supercharge relies on exhaust gases to drive the turbine wheel which in turn drives the compressor wheel.

Are you referring to his wife or the Mazda 3?

Women are a jealous breed. Becareful, i warn you.

Hatchbacks has always been more sexy what.

Take a look at all the previous iterations from BL to BM. Always hatchback wins. Hatchback seriously earn so much win that Mazda has decided to make it the most expensive in the facelifted BM chassis.

but you pay

Pandainya your waifu. Give her a like

Sorry, forum n00b

Well, their current engine which has high compression ratio did not really produce earth shattering power. So, i don't know what i can hope for in the new engine.

For me, it is not meant to be a performance oriented engine. So, i don't really bother with what they stick into the car as long as it doesn't have reliability problems long term wise.

You better be. Else, this thread has to change name and be moved to some other sections of this forum.

You see before got any force fed stock cars get boosted up to 4 bars of boost pressure?

Of course la it is mild. It is understood in general kan? Eco engine brah.

Just one problem cannot be the defining the problem of the entire plant, kan?

That is like saying because one person is dumb, the entire human race is dumb.

Or one girl is ugly and all women are ugly.

WTH! brah! WTH!





Also, not thread owner. Doesn't say my name there

huh? I thought Mazda defining model is the CX5? Not Mazda 3 kan. That is why CKD also dun wan entertain.

Means you say it la.

It is just like saying "no disrespect, but he look ugly"

I add no disrespect in front does not mean i didn't say he dun look ugly, kan? kan?

It isn't a problem until it is a problem

If CBU? I don' think i want to call that a price hike. It will be a price adjustment

Rumor brah rumor.

You all buy more now and it might change Bermaz management mind.

Make more of what is your best seller mah, that is a normal thing.

You can't have your cake and still eat it.

So, you need to deal with the fact that it will be pricier. Just don't start comparing it to the cheaper korean cars with more features and stuff.

CKD used to mean something different to the local manufacturers. Last time CKD is termed as what we call SKD now where cars are brought in as complete as possible and only the bumpers are painted and / or installed here on the assembly line. This was just to take advantage of some loopholes in the past for the manufacturers benefit or something.

Currently, CKD could possibly mean parts localisation where certain pretty general parts like some trim pieces or something could be sourced locally to reduce costs of making the car.

With this, then there is sure some differences in quality. For those who have tried between a CKD and CBU Merc would have been able to tell there are differences however subtle they are. Even if not for parts, the process or the way it is assembled could have some affects on the car.
