12% increase sounds normal for the regular program sir. You can ask them to up it a bit more but with your AFR hitting 16 baka di na nila taasan. Ayaw din nila kasing maging masyadong rich ang fuel mo. Mukhang mabigat talaga ang GS kaya parang mababa yung power. Also maybe your tires are too soft when you got dynoed. Maybe you could get another dyno run now that the turbo is fixed to see if the AFR is higher. Pwede mo nang pataasan power nyan.

Hancars yung first stop namin. Subukan ko agad yung GPS hehe.

Mahal pala nung Kenwood sir boybi hehe. We'll be taking a look at the units this weekend. Worth considering yung HARI GLS if all that needs changing are the shocks. Pwede naman magpa install ng better HU and monitors. Ang ayaw ko lang M/T lang sya.

Pitstop Motors ang sort of service center ng gray market units right? Kumusta naman ang service at warranty claims?

Sir Wh1stl3r, kung sa PITSTOP ka bumili, sa pistop lang talaga ang Service Center nya.. Unlike kay HANCARS, pede ka magpaservice sa accredited na HARI Service Centers nila like HARI Global City Hub, Alabang and GreenHills.

Tumawag na ako sa Global City, tinatanggap daw nila ang HANCARS unit. PMS man daw yan or Warranty claims pwedeng pede sa kanila. Kasi ang gagawin nila is sisingilin nila si HANCARS dun sa gagawin nila sa unit mo.

get the CVX from HANCARS, dka magkakamali...

Bro sabay sabay kayong malilintikan kapag may nakabasa nito from HARI.

Alam ko rin yan, somebody told me via PM. And sila na rin mismo nagsabi sa akin. Pero discreet lang, pinost mo pa dito.

I suggest sa Q ave mo nalang dalahin yun ang pinaka matino sa affiliated casa nila Hancars.

Went to Hancars last saturday, got to see the CVX's on display. Webson was accommodating and easy to talk to, even offered us a test drive. Mas maganda talaga yung CVX compared to Gold, may extra row of seats and lots more accessories that look factory installed. Wala nga lang HVX on display. I'll be going back when the HVX units come in to compare the two.

The extra row gives the owner the flexibility of cargo space or people hauling capacity, after all the GS's body can accommodate quite a lot. Sigh, with the HARI models, you can only choose one of the two options.

Dun sa mga bumili ng CVX Luxury / Premium sa Hancars, ano deal na binigay sa inyo ni Webson / Mam Elaine?

Thanks

Went to hancars yesterday...nice package..they can even offer you a 1yr or 3 yr & 5yr. Warranty period....were lookin at getting the 2012 CVX premium without the moonroof. Asked also if possible they could customize to have the features of Grand Starex Royale of Malaysia but, he said it will entail lots of modification as it have differrent mountings..it is doable but will be costly as it will need to change the hoods,bumpers etc..but that Starex Royale is a looker tlaga. 2011 Hyundai Grand Starex Royale - hyundai starex 1 - Paul Tan's Automotive News

The GS Royale doesn't look good. Gusto ko lang yung color ng leather seats.. hehe.

[IMm29]

Not a fan of the GS Royale as well. They kinda targetted the Alphard too much with the mods vs. the GS we have here locally.

[Jiggs]

yep...it really resembles the face of the Alphard...and somehow the likes of Sonata which in my taste is fine..The anodized black version to me is the best.
Tska para naman maiba to rest of the herd..lol kaso medyo me kamahalan pala..seen it in flesh last month when I was in KL..indeed a looker and a fresh sight to the rest of the H1 packs.

[IMm29]

Pretty intimidating, I'll agree with that.

[IMm29]

Liking the body kit from the rear tho. Hehehe!


Read from the guys at Emperor Empire, QC on the Royale wasn't too good. You could check up on their posts in Facebook.

[bratski]

Ipa bodykit nalang yan, same effect din. Although mahirap nga palitan yung grille.sabagay may point din si jiggs, ang gs ngayon parang ms narin sa dami hehe

[Jiggs]

guys..aside sa Hancars and Pitstop...san pa kaya me best package deal ng Grand Starex? Been to Auto Access din..nice package din cla and very accomodating nga sales manager dun..si Ma'm Ghie.

[Starex_Gold]

Kay Standout Motors..

[Wh1stl3r]

Placed an order for a Hypermetallic CVX premium with leather seats. I have to say sobrang bare ng HARI units compared to even just the CVX. Yung limited edition nila ang pangit, no offense, aside from drowning in chrome the stepboards' screws are visible, kitang kita na di maganda yung pagka mount.

Question lang to HARI unit owners, is it possible to mount an additional row of seats in your units? Di ko napansin kung hanggang dulo yung rail ng seats.

Re: GS Royale I like the rear too, as well as the rims. Yung front sana ibahin nila yung grille and smoothen out yung front skirt, mukha kasing galing sa Altis.

[Starex_Gold]

*Wh1stl3r: Kay Hancars ka ba nag-order?

[Jiggs]

yesterday...2 units yung ready for pick up na ke Hancars..yung isa is CVX with sunroof..nd ko lang nakita ang inside if it were leather..

[Wh1stl3r]

*SG
Yup, sa Hancars bro. Medyo nahilo ako ng konti sa dami ng options na pagpipilian kaya natagalan, pero worth it naman. Parang HVX Luxury na rin lalabas yung CVX Premium namin. May ECM, leather seats na rin. Ang difference lang ng HVX Luxury is yung bigger rims, side garnish (good thing di bagay sa Hypermetallic) and sun roof. Lamang pa sya ng VDC sa HVX Luxury.

this is the "after" pic of the right tail light assembly with both signal lights and back up lights on. definitely much brighter than the original. the signal lights are also as visible as before.

nice one Sir Yebo, yung sa akin GS pinagawa ko sa Maspro Banawe, pinalitan nila ng socket pang double contact, pati yung reverse light palit din ng mas maputi kaya sobrang liwanag na pag nag rereverse.
