hi...newbie here.
what about ur cars fuel consumption...
just want to ask....
coz i plan to buy either charade aura or kancil then converted it to turbo engine..
Hi there,
Previously, i'm using CB23/G100/ Charade Aura (1.0M, 1989). And i'm planning to convert to GTti..What type of daihatsu you are planning to have G200 or G100?..Nothin' much i do on the car to improve its performance..except changing the timing belt & sport rim to 15" & add 2 air compression gadgets (reduce fuel consumption)... My comments on the car based on my experience...
ADVANTAGES OF CB23
1. Low fuel consumption
2. Engine temperature is very low..even though driving for about 2 hours non-stop
3. Nice/solid/strong body chasis - design still looks nice
4. Much more spacious (inside) compared to kancil & even kelisa
DISADVANTAGES OF CB23
1. Less/low in pick-up/ torque
2. When reaching 120km/h, the chasis & interior parts starting to shake a little bit..
3. Halfcut only for GTti engine (CB70 EFI 1.0M Turbo Intercooler), is quite expensive, around RM3k + (not inclusive of labour charge), compared to L2 or L5 mira, which is much cheaper...
Conclusion, if you one more space choose charade & if you want just a compact car, choose kancil..However both models can be upagraded into turbo charge version...
TQ.
