JasonB, where's ur location and is the work done on ur Kancil good? I have a 14 year-old Kancil recently brought back to life (haven't started it for a year) and I plan on restoring it. Engine still in good condition (88,000KM mileage). I'm looking at a major engine service, air-cond service, seats wrapping, change 4 tyres (1 of them dates back to 2000) and hub caps... anybody has any idea how much this would cost? RM500 enough?
Hi,
I'm in Cheras, KL.
So far what i've done up is considered extensive to some.
When i started my project, i chose to do the body works first rather than the engine, because then the engine was working fine..
As for you run the engine and see if al is ok and do just a normal engine service first.
-Change Engine oil, filters petrol, air and oil, belts timing, compressor/alternator, battery.
-Check for oil & exhaust leaks as well.
-Check your spark plugs / distributor / brake pads & fluid
As for tires i changed from a 12 in steel rims to 13in daihatsu sport rims. its lighter. better pickup and handling.
Up to you if you have sufficient budget.
-Check absorber see if they are leaking, if yes change.
Tips: Do change the essentials first rather than the aesthetics.
Do update us
Cheers

i;m looking for this daihatsu air filter holder cover.
