already did a repair job with my front bumper and side fender.

what i can say.. labor already cost 900 (of coz not me paying.. insurance claim).. vvt symbol not fit back to the claimed "new fender".. hopefully it is new..

the clips not properly fitted for the plastic tyre cover (dunno what the name.. plastic that cover the tyre arc..)

changing sc and hopefully new sc can help me to solve the problem.

*any stiffring user? is it really reduce the noise level on our subframe? rm500 for fullset..
*
Stiff ring on front, reduce noise is guaranteed =D

if i want more performance from my ss, is there a way I can rechip it? thinking that someone should rechip to change the torque curve or make  the auto gearbox downshift faster. currently, the gearbox is very lazy and takes its own sweet time to downshift.

sudah adjust your throttle cable?

Go SC and tell them you need to step so deep to get it gear change. They will then adjust for you

people said proton/perodua maintenance cheap.. not sure how they can say this.. i owned 2 of these models too.. service n parts price similar to other jap/korean cars!
*
That is true my friend. Maintenance for almost every makes are more or less the same. The different is the pricing of spare parts.

The famous the make is, the expensive the price is smile.gif

Just afraid that it won't be available in 1.5 litre guise anymore....  ohmy.gif

Most probably 1.2 or 1.4 litre mated with CVT transmission as it is selling overseas. And the photo is new Swift Sport, the normal swift does not come with this nicer body kit biggrin.gif

CVT ?

I has a dissappointment....  sad.gif

Might as well buy the current one... don't like CVT....  sad.gif


Added on June 4, 2012, 3:24 pmAny comments bout the current 4 speeder ?
*
Why disappointed? It is a good transmission for small car like this. Check their released fuel consumption, is 20km/l if not mistaken.

Current 4 speeder? Ratio is high, suffer on pickup, thus poor FC. I would have grab 5MT if available for 1.5 biggrin.gif

Yeah... of coz got 4 door variant....

Judging from what they said... maybe available at showrooms around 2013....

CVT is A Variable transmission... meaning it got no fixed ratios like normal auto gearbox...

I dislike it coz it lacks the sporty feel....

WHen u put ur foot down, the RPM will stuck, say at 5.5k rpm and stay there....

Below video will show u...

This is Swift CVT.... Look... no gear shift..... for me boring & bland...



This is normal 4 speed auto Swift.... Sportier for me... biggrin.gif


*
Hopefully they come out with manual transmission drool.gif

Then you can have a lot of fun biggrin.gif

This is not sporty. This is makan minyak. laugh.gif 
Now my swift full tank only can go for 350-400(city) and 400-500(highway).

Anyway, glad that you consider Swift. It's a fun car to drive.  biggrin.gif

You must be heavy footer mang tongue.gif

I suggest you learn it's behavior, start off with some throttle, let it build up certain speed before add more throttle. Forcing it to accelerate on low speed will makan more minyak based on what I've tested myself smile.gif

I know CVT is good for FC... But Swift is a very sporty handling car... quite stable.... so i'm quite a heavy footer... So Swift suits me well with the handling....

Yeah, I oso felt that the 4 speeder ratios is quite tall.... good on highways, bad in city.....

Asked SC & scouted mudah.my.... no manual... sadding...  sad.gif

Only Swift Sport 1.6....  sad.gif

Loved driving manual car coz of the feel....

Test Drove Fiesta.... Not bad.... But kinda like Swift more....  unsure.gif
*
You can convert yourself anyway, there are some of them who converted their 1.5 to manual, not much but there is a solution.

Fiesta? It has everything better than swift except for the price. For me paying 80k++ for this fiesta is worth the money, could not get such specs with this price.

Anyone here know what offset fits the swift nicely? i plan to downgrade to 16inch, but nt sure which offset to choose, +40 or +45?

if 7jj +45 no cun at all, currently on 7jj + 42 with 195/50/R16. Planned to get 205/50/R16, not sure if it will hit fender.

if you stick with 195/50/R16, you can go as low as +38 biggrin.gif

Monster sport stuff ain't cheap indeed, I got the dry type(not washable) for RM180 included shipping from Japan during 20% discount promotion. If normal price would be around RM220... which has around 40k KM lifespan I guess?

be careful when you are using 205 on +40, I don't know if it will kena fender or not as I am using 195 on +42.

I don't think there is much rims in +40?? Usual offset should be +45, +42, +38, +35... Maybe I don't know =D

Don't know if pipercross is better, some claims K&N better some say pipercross.... All I know is turbo is better tongue.gif
