dat y le....kia damn stupid...big car small cc....of coz makan le...mana nak cari wagon 1.3?if u loook at volvo v70 oso 2.0 turbo or caldina...got enuff bhp n torque to pull d weight...

 

[bobrio]

its not because kia stupid...its our stupid KERAJAAN and the stupid CUKAI....thats why kia cannot bring in the powerfull model to Malaysia....in US,Europe and even in Singapore..kia rio is available in 3 type of engine... 1.3,1.5 and 1.6.diesel and pertol.even with manual gears ....and there are some other model such like Cerato which is really handsome and powerfull...even once Tiff test drive our Rio Wagon in Fifth Gear and said its a good car and fun to drive..he test the rio in circuit man...you should see that...and im proud driving my rio after that...cheers to all RIOSTERS

 

[gothculture]

hehe...brro even wad u said rite u cant expect a 1.6 to pull a wagon mah...1.6 manual diesel also not powerful compared to v70 turbo or caldina turbo...i used to drive a v70 turbo n guess wad...its damn fun...so i just wished that the rio would hav a bigger n more powerful engine(at least la giv optima 1.8 ke)...oh well....i'll just save up for a transplant...hehe=) jpj boleh mampus...2.0 here i come...haha

 

[bobrio]

ya la ..but v70 and caldina is 2 times more expensive than RIO...well...jz to inform bro...my RIO also under transplant...heheh...

 

[gothculture]

[bobrio]

[gothculture]

ooo...alot of kia owners swap mazda bseries eh...i heard d kia is based on d mazda blueprint...hmmm...dunno much abt that...haha...so once ur done wit ur conversion we organize rio tt la...haha

 

[bobrio]

ya..all the kia model easyly can swap with b series...actually i plan to install b8 210 hp...but only manual transmision available...somemore puspakom kacau and ask for 'duit kopi' more than 1k...sure can but let me complete my transplant and modification first...hope lot of other RIOATERS will join the club...cheers...
