the toyota and honda 1.5 / 1.6 / 1.8 segment are not really value for money......especially toyota...

no doubt they are good cars, compare to specs they use to offer...now it seems not so much of a good ownership

if jap, at least fork out ~80K, but what you get? rear beam suspension? cramp interior? vvti and ivtech are not really very much better than MIVEC...unless u r talking about face lah...of course some die hard brand victim will welcome to their club when they insist the moon shines better on foreign land...and certain brand are their choice and the only choice without looking at technical specs...

ok.my waja ECU fried. then, it fried the auto gearbox sensors.

quoted cost for a new ECU is about 5k and new gb sensors about 1k

anyone can help me with the ECU? any cheaper alternative?

or should i just ditch proton ?

Convert to other engine if u have the money...
IMO u can try search at Waja Performance Club forum..maybe there's any for sale

What i mean is there's some1 selling his 4g18engine...maybe u can scout some parts there for cheaper price..

5k enough to transplant a new engine.. better get another party to verify b4 making a decision..

I'm asking both 308 turbo and 308 NA maintenance. Do you know?

Bro don't simply bash other brand without further understand their spec and reliability.

thanks for ur answer, any i plan to change my normal springs to low springs.any suggestion?

frankly speaking, i dunno the maintenance cost.

duh , i am not bashing those brands, just sharing my 2 cents nia, sorry if i make you misunderstood or offended you in anyway ...and no doubt some japs brand are well known for reliability. i am in automotive field my-self today and tell you 9 years in this industry, i see a lot . look back to the older japs models say in the 90's and compare the ones we have currently. i'd say, during the 90's, japs packed in a lot and try hard to sell the car and to please the customer (frankly speaking i like the civic and the toyota SEG from those days ), so that they can edge other brands. just compare the corolla 1.6 of those day and the ford / pug / or other conti's...but now, some japs are confident enough that they just packed something and they are confident customer will buy it just because of the brand . GM today, is no longer the car manufacturer so sells the most car, but toyota. to continue to lean down the cost and gain more profit, just compare the vios. basically, it's a face lift to a dugong version, replace by electric power steering......anything more significant? a simple package, but toyota die hard fans will still buy it . if we dun say die die want a toyota, we see more option around us...Avanza??? sighhh....

if you are a sport fans, for RM300 bucks, will you buy a Nike or a asics running shoe? I believe a lot here will opt for the bet value for money and some will opt for the name. just a personal preference, no right or wrong.

this is just my oppinion,some japs brand with range of product we have in malaysia are over rated, and it is that way for a reason, someones failure might be another persons opportunity. if compare an open market, we do have a choice......at the end of the day, the individual still have the right to his or her own personal prefrence...his/ her own money...

maybe u can check previous post on V4.. many answer there..

why isn't my name upped in the list?

Model: Waja 1.8x 2003
Color: Silver

i think its siemens a confirmation from our fellow friends here please.

The Avanza, City and Vios is for SEA market and the quality expectation is different furthemore they're in different category from Waja/Civic/Altis/Latio/Sentra.

What i'm trying to said is those Japs did not over confident, over rated neither sacrifies their quality, all their car are even better from 90's. I would suggest you to have a test drive with Latio/Altis/Sentra, then u tell us what is your opinion.
