several of my fren's have projector lights with CCFL (angel eyes) instsalled into their perdana.
all except one use HID, using HID is very nice as they use projector lense from GTR32 and retro-fit it into the perdana headlamp.
one that uses normal halogen, the light is so-so only la. like waja or satria neo light.

mivec or mivec-md is nice.
2.0 NA engine with 197hp.
auto or manual?

actually, normal v6 engine is quite nice already, if u change to manual la.
power response is instant.

u can also check out 6a12t @ v6 twinturbo, or 4g63t @ evo1, evo2, evo3, rvr, eclipse, vr-4 etc..

it's at the engine near the gb part.

a perdana v6tt as 2nd car?
what is ur 1st car?

Jazz is ur everyday car and perdana weekend car?

DIY, nice..

just relaying info........

perdana v6 auto gb after mid-2005 is considered ok already.
proton has installed specific atf cooler for the gb.

before mid-2005, the cooling of the gb was connected to the radiator and it is a small cooling coil inside the bottom part of the radiator.
so the cooling was not efficient.

but like any auto gb, don't thrash it.

u did top overhaul or general overhaul (full)?

they need to adjust tappet?
why? and can adjust? i don't think so..

i think u need a re-tune of ur engine using MUT.

MUT is the small computer thingy (mitsubishi something...) that proton uses to tune our ECU to tune our engine to optimum performance.
it costs about rm50-80 for a re-tune.

and for the adjust tappet thingy, maybe they need to adjust valve clearance or something..
maybe bcoz using new seats or seals, need to running-in first..

i do have 2 favorite workshops, 1 in putrajaya and 1 in pandan indah
but both don't have MUT or any computer to do tuning


u can go to any proton or eon service centre

i have done tuning before at an EON certified service centre in puchong
workshop name if not mistaken Trisilco Auto sdn bhd

Added on March 25, 2010, 4:59 pmtappet sound on v6 iss normal
if using fully synthetic engine oil, the sound is louder as the oil is light/thin
use semi-synthetic oil or mineral oil to reduce the sound as it is heavier/thicker
but yeah, just the sound, no serious prob..

ur headlamp is yellowish on the outside or inside?
if outside, u can polish it using normal polish or some specialist liquid
try search on this forum, i think got some discussion on it

yup, live work play in putrajaya
roger me la if u come to putrajaya
can go TT

UGPM

perdana tank is 64 liters.
i have managed to empty (nearly la) my tank and filled 63.5 liters.
drive around town with traffic jam and all, RM0.21 per km. ron95.
hiway all the way, RM0.16 per km. ron95.
that's my calculation on my usage.

as for the auto gb, the prob was from mitsubishi.
anyways, just install ATF cooler and it can help prolong the life span of your gb.

true. even v6 can.
look for eterna complete 4wd set such as gb, long shaft, axle, rear drive shaft, rear knuckle etc
SEi plug and play, v6 hv to do a bit mod only..

u are using SEi body?
wht engine?

conversion to evo3 ~ Rm10K.
or maybe u can search for 2nd hand perdana with evo3 engine.

those items i wrote may cost at least Rm1K (axle, long shaft, rear knuckle, rear driveshaft, 4wd tank, etc).
not including 4wd gb.

1. maintenance is just as any normal car. change oil + oil filter every 5K km if using mineral oil, 7K km = semi synthetic, 10K km = fully synthetic oil. major service at 100K km. ATF change every 20K km, ATF + ATF filter kit every 40K km.
2. FC is about RM0.22 per km in town and RM0.16 per km in hiway for auto, manual maybe less about 20%.
3. yes. and got many parts from halfcut shops.
4. RM40K will get 2004 or 2005 V6.


u prefer NA or turbo?
mivec is good, tt is good and 4g63t is good. even the normal v6 is also good.
but be aware that v6 mivec parts are hard to find.
tt parts quite hard.
4g63t parts easy..

ok la, but must remember to oil it.
if the lifter stuck, u cannot open ur bonnet..

RM55. installed about 1.5 years ago.

also must remember that mitsubishi created V6s for hiway cruising.

use ns60 still ok. but i'm using ns70.

yup.
