guys may nagsabi sakin this August daw possible na ilabas na yun new look ng d-max. Magkaka conference kasi ang Isuzu Phils this July-August tapos isasabay na daw ang launching.
kung di nila baguhin ang makina ng d-max na bagong labas, dito na lang ako sa d-max natin, kasi walang pambili eh, hehehe..
update on my Tolda (bed cover) project... I followed the style of memphis na velcro
![]()
pahiram sir memphis
Hindi ito umubra sa akin...well kasi paghigh speed (140kph up) na yung takbo, yung overlap sa gilid tumataas na ng husto to the point na nakakalas niya yung dikit ng velcro duon sa rear part.
dapat hangang gilid yung lagyan ko ng velcro to remedy this problem...
alternatively, baka ituloy ko na lang yung ala-sportrac bed cover na lang..![]()
wildthing,
magkano kaya aabutin ang ala sportrac bed cover?
memphis,
ganun din ba sa iyo pag 140k/h up natutuklap ang rear part?...
sa estimate ko...kung aluminum checker plate ang gagamitin baka umabot ng 6 to 7k (yung plate kasi ay nasa 4-5K na)... bending, welding, hinge, lock and labor yung balance.
kung fiber glass, baka mas mura...pero this week pa lang ako aattend ng fiberglass training sa Polymer Phils (sa Pasig).
Ang gusto ko rin kasi sana ay pede kong lagyan ng bike rack yung ibabaw ng bed cover pag ala-sportrac yung concept.
wild - maganda yan ang seminar ng Polymer. our fiberglass guy attended it and learned a lot of secrets, well not all but you will surely make use of teh seminar.
Honestly, I drive to more than 140kph I think there are times I floor it to nearly 150kph so far hindi naman natutuklap, I can see the rear tolda edges from my rearview mirror and hindi naman natatanggal.
I guess it really depends on the mounting sa velcro and on the tolda sheet itself.
I am still saving up for that CarryBoy Roll-up. Meron din Dmax dito na naka Pace Edwards but I got discouraged because the black surface is really a dust magnet. At least sa Alloy na CarryBoy di gaano and its a better match sa Astral Silver na body color ko.
Kelan ba balik mo dito?
memps,
ganun siguro yung kay wildthing, depende sa pagkakabit lang ng velcro,,..
be there end of this month, hoping for our EB,,i'll keep you posted memps,,,
memphis... noted
baka nga, malaki rin kasi yung overrage dun sa tolda ko after the velcro...unlike dun sa naka mount sa pick-up ni memphis
hey guys,
I dunno if this makes sense to you guys... I watched on myth busters at the discovery or nat geo chaneel, that having an open cargo box is technically more aerodynamic than putting a cover or having the tailgate open. There were aerodynamic test done to see how the air flows/behaves.
just a thought...
but i am using the cover for my cargo... not for aerodynamic reasons.
e launch na daw ang new dmax this coming july 10 nationwide.
hoping that this would be 2.5li 4cylinder common rail with variable goemetry turbo,intercooler with anti stall technology.
if ever 2.5dci heres the specs:
power 136*3600 (ps*rpm)
torque 294*1800-3200 (nm*rpm)
acceleration time 0-100km 12.8secs
more info of specs please visit http://www.isuzu.co.uk
mababa yata ang HP (136 HP) ng 2.5 liter CRDi VGT ng bagong Dmax.
the current starex 2.5 liter CRDi non-VGT ay 145 HP na.
the grand starex that will be coming out later this year with 2.5 liter CRDi VGT ay 170 HP.
is it the engine design o me mali lang sa brochure ng dealer?![]()
mga bro/sis,
another email from isuzo cavite.........
[SIZE=2]True that there will be a launching. But the viewing on July 10 will be for dealership prinicipals only. Not even the employees of each dealership can view it. If I may ask a little of your patience since I feel that public viewing will definitely sometime July ’07.[/SIZE]
