For those intend to modified their saga/iswara, i suggest you guy don't do so in this moment. Crisis is coming. Economy getting worst and worst. When you have money, keep it now for the future to use. Now is the time to save money for the future usage.. Next year economy is getting more worst and might affect automotive industry. =(

yea 

agreed! 

guys,
need some help. just know when i start my engine and wanna open the window, suddenly there are like a 'shot', then the window cannot open, the main clock dead and the radio cannot on. but all light are functionally well and the engine still can start. do u guys know what happen? does it involve the battery or wiring? thanks in advance.

u know how much it will cost for that?
thanks in advance.

If we really have alot of money, then don't mind to spend more. But if we spend more, and can't take back then you will getting bankrup very soon. 
i heard that from my boss.. He was a politician and government people.. Ada pangkat ini.. Everyday told me about economy. So I get it from him. Furthermore, last time when i working at workshop, estimated 1 day around 10-20 cars per days. While now getting worst and worst. Sometime whole day don't even have car at all...

i every morning have to listen to financial talk and evaluate stock market. boring already. My advise is, salaried worker no need to worry so much. Just be prudent and spend on necessary things only.

What goes around, comes around. What goes down, must go up. Back in 1997/98 the CI was at 800+ point as well, exactly like now. Give it a few months into next year it will bounce back to 1000 point.

As usual only small businesses worry at trying times like this (because they always have more debt than cash even before the crisis). Big businesses take this as an opportunity to revamp and revise their company. Tan Sri Ananda has taken Maxis off the KLSE few months before the credit crunch and make it private. Now AirAsia, MISC, etc are planning to do the same as well.

So u guys no need to worry. People who are largely affecting the economy (corporate, broker, stock player, investors, etc) need to maintain their lifestyle also, so they're working round the clock to make up to their losses and at the same time the economy will be restored.

Enough of my crap.  However please share this opinion with your friends and family. 

nope. but we are trying to make people buy more since it's cheap. Most of our regular investors already knew this... so even the lousiest consultant also now making more easy sales for the past few months.
I'm with CIMB. Invest in unit trust if u have extra money for long term plan, 3 years onwards. If not, keep in in save deposit or ASB. PNB will also launch additional ASM units.

Nowadays any Unit Trust funds also will drop, because it's related to all the counters in stock markets locally and globally.

If u want to understand more about unit trust, sms me and we'll go for our own TT. i'll show u prove of people making money during the last 'recession' period. When u see the prove, u'll know there's nothing to panic about during this period. U'll also know why poor people keep getting poorer and rich people keep getting richer. 

-sorry guys promote bisnes sendiri. x malu betul.-  

any 1 here have change thier iswara 1.3 block to 1.5 block and than put 4g18 1.6 stroker kits in 1.5 block ?

Not only that.. Bank and government sector worker are waiting to be cut.. I get this info from my friend which working in bank and also government sector. General Motor today announce bankrup edi...
We sent money is not really usefull. What they need is, foreigner come and spend there money here.. This is what malaysia need now.. foreigner investment.
I get 1.5 block already.. Rm200 only.. Include piston,crankshaft and block And 1.6 flywheel with clutch for Rm400   Next week off 2 days, I will install that if I managed to borrow tools...    1 bulan allowance habis...

wah sifoo.... ur car pasang adi ah?? 

hahaha... no replacement for displacement....

Join gang 1.5 la.. kena upgrade sikit... Kalau nak, i ada lubang lagi cari block 1.5.

me too...

takde kastam paper how u wanna endorse balik??...

Let me guess, in LYN, u n another forumer sepulgilo both telling bout how wonderful dis brakes is... But 4got bout da rims. Same goes 2 da halfcut seller... also 4got    nvrm la... done edi...   Thanks y'all

still can endorse without kastam paper. Unless you convert to japanese half cut.
I nak stamp, but my sifu don't give me stamp as he said this very risky. so he can help me endorse very easily.. as he working in automotive around 25 years, i believe he got lubang. hehehe....
Part you need is conrod bearing, piston bearing, piston ring, head gasket, oil pan gasket, oil seal for flywheel.

The labour include parts will be price slightly like overhaul an engine.

haha... they wont check thoroughly laa.. last time my friend siap kotorkan dengan minyak hitam before wrapping up the job. looks more 'original'.

oic... than can aproximately cost me hw muc ?

labout + part 1K enuf ?

but i wanna try find 1.6 stroker kits 1 shot do all 

there are 2 obvious difference between 1.3 and 1.5 block... 1st, is the engine code which police/jpj usually check.... 2nd, is a mark moulded together with the block at the back facing the firewall under ur intake manifold... for 4g15 it is written 15.... dat one rather hard to get rid off....

true. if u x cari pasal, JPJ pun malas nak check betul2. lagipun roadblock malam2, kereta pun banyak nak lalu.. so no worries la..

stay low profile is the best camouflage....
can i remove the middle belts without removing the seats??... i tried sumbat my hand in but cannot reach the belts... my stupid previous owner tucked them in... 

remove seat means not low profile adi la...

i wish i can remove the rear seats legally...

then settle rear seat matter, but kantoi tinted. 

since kantoi tinted, pasang rollcage inside straight lah....

must hang a few flying tee ku there as sample...  

Now that the 4G13/15P aren't in production anymore, I wonder how long more the spare parts for these engines will be easily available...?

no one was hurt?? 4 confirmed dead already. 10 or maybe more still trapped. thousands cant go out of the area because the only road was cut out. 

by the way, anyone interested to upgrade their front disc brake, please check out my siggie!
