[srbogoy]

'pre paki pm mo price,,

[silverend]

top speed ko 130kph, dati at medyo matagal umabot don, ngayon bumilis ang acceleration, super bilis, bigla ko apak at half throttle at iilaw ang power management, uusok ang 20's ko, sandali lang sa 140kph at marami pa ibubuga dahil magaan pa sa makina..

matagal umabot sa 130kph dati without the chip? are you sure about this? our 2003 strada stock can hit 155kph in almost just 2 kms. tantya ko na yan from house to farm namin. so ano top speed mo without the chip dati? mabagal kung ganun sa sinasabi mo.kasi i heard d-max normally hit 160kph kahit la pang power chip ito.

[wildthing]

agree...i don't know ilang kilometro or ilang segundo but my dmax can reach 160kph easily if i floor it. it doesn't have a IC or chip upgrade.

kung maganda ang airtemp it can still go 170-175kph...pero hindi kasing bilis ng 140 going 160. my dream is to reach 180kph...

[x_jason_x]

i think malaki ang ibubuga ng d-max ni srbogoy, its just na baka medyo natatakot na siya ifloor.

kasi ako dmax ko top speed ko 140kph lang and pagdating dun automatic na for me na hindi na magaccelerate. Katatakot kasi pick up to, isang putok ng gulong tataob. So I cant really say kung malaki pa ibubuga ng d-max ko after 140kph.

[srbogoy]

silverend,,dati wala pang tunit hirap dahil naka 265/50/20's ang tires ko eh. pero ngayon malaki ang ipinagbago, mabilis ang acceleration at depende sa settings ng tunit,..may 9 points setting kasi at 6 lang ang setting ko..

tama si jason malaki pa ibubuga ang dmax ko ngayon kumpara sa wala pang tunit,, kaya lang ayaw ko lang ifloor kung di talaga kailangan,,

I likewise agree. My 2003 D-Max (4x2 A/T) can hit 140 kph effortlessly then the acceleration would taper a bit before it reaches 160 kph. I feel na may ibibigay pa yung makina but again, as mentioned in the early pages of this thread, parang may speed limiter 'tong D-Max kaya hanggang 160 kph lang.

srbogoy,

hows the FC?

[bigeebabee]

nakaka-stiffen ba ng ride ang anti-sway bar? how does it affect ride comfort?

sa cornering po medyo stiff other than that sa straight d gumagalaw kahit yung campershell

[x_jason_x]

pero silverend, gulat ako nakaka 155kmh yun 2003 strada mo. Lakas na yun ah for 2.8liter ba or 2.5liter yan? dati kasi naka drive ako ng 2002 pajero with 2.8liter engine. Medyo nabagalan ako.. mas mabilis pa for me yun starex na walang sakay.

and ang pajero nakakatakot at high speed, super nangingig na yun car.

it's 2.5 liter standard jason x, dati yong 2001 namin hanggang 145kph lang talaga siguro dahil medyo gumaan ng konti since 16 inch na yong mags ng 03. tumitingin din ako ng power chip for L200, may tag 125pounds-(basic lang,walang adjustments di tulad ng kay srbogoy) merong 450pounds pero RALLIART na yon. pero same lang effect. iba ang pajero matagl ang momentum siguro dahil sa bigat niya.

Good observation on the Pajero. My ride before the Dmax was a 4M40 3door and the acceleration sucks so goes for the top end speed; even with a good tailwind it would be like a miracle if it could hit 120. But then the Pajero is meant for climbing, so with its inherent extra torque mountains are a cinch .

Srbogoy's Tunit upgrade will do wonders to a Dmax on stock tires. Talagang mabigat ang 20's so it needs more help to spin em.

[silverend]

jason x ito yong ride namin..stock yan 155kph no sweat, dumi ng loob galing farm yata. utol ko lang nag memaintain since nasa uk ako ngayon. pero titingin ako ng dmax pag uwi para maiba naman. yong crdi hopefully makuha ko, regalo ko na kasi to sa amin.

tama si jason malaki pa ibubuga ang dmax ko ngayon kumpara sa wala pang tunit,, kaya lang ayaw ko lang ifloor kung di talaga kailangan,,

ang lupit ng mga tires mo, buti ok naman yong chip na nilagay mo nag match naman sa dmax sa pinas, gusto ko nga ring lagyan yong strada namin noon pa kaya lang takot ako baka di mag match, anong site ang binilhan mo? mas madali para sa akin mag order since andito ako sa uk. di ba sa ebay mo nabili pala? since na try mo na kukuha na rin ako. bilib din ako sa effort mo sa ride mo. swerte makabili niyan pag binenta mo, let me know kung sakali.hehe cheers mate.

[srbogoy]

silverend, 'pre nasa uk ka pala, mas madali bumili dyan at makamura ka. dito ko inorder ang tunit ko..

silver dont think na you can put one in your strada, walang ECU or mechanical injection pa ang strada mo. The upgrade is applicable yata sa mga ECU equipped vehicles lang. basing from the set-up of srbogoy, mas malaki ang tires nya that is why his speed is not that high but if i measure mo yan mas mataas yan.

PM me your number so I can send you pic of teh sway bar.

[jarhead]

sr bogoy, ur speedometer looks slow but actually u cant depend on that already for accuracy because the rim and tire is different na eventhough u hav the same diameter sa stock, it is still afecting ur speed.. maybe a 3+% more kung ano ang speed mo, ex: 100kms/hr sa speedometer, add another 3% to that and thats ur average speed...kung sa chip naman, i dont kjnow the effect of it sa long run.. but be careful lang sa EFI mo, thats the possible part na maworn out or ma affected first... not unles you have your EFI clibrated/modified to match the speed or output ng chip...

Yup, matulin yang model ng Strada na yan. Pinagpapantasiyahan ko rin yan 'til the D-Max came along.

Tunit II - £459 inc VAT and delivery (£375 net)


The Tunit II is extremely flexible, it will fit almost any vehicle prior to common rail engines and although it does not come with matching manufacturers plugs its great strength is that it can be used on almost any Tdi or non Tdi engine other than the latest common rail type engines.
This Tunit is also easily adjustable giving greater flexibility when it comes to customizing it to most engines and applications. As well as all this, the Tunit is an incredible 48x35 mm in size and as light as a pebble.
Fitting is by the attachment of four (in some cases six) wires. These can be done via the spade clips provided or by soldering. Adjustment is via a small screw on the body right for more power, left for less.

[louchua]

*srbogoy.. sir, ano type ng Tunit ang kinabit ninyo?

[silverend]

ARB,tmaxx thanks for the info pero meron tlagang power chip for L200, kahit yong bago model pa na strada. tinawag ko na yan nong isang araw ang sabi sa akin ng dealer dito i check ko lang daw kung may wire ba sa accelerator that goes to the engine, kung meron daw di daw pwede maglagay ng chip dapat kasi wala, la nman daw nong pinatignan ko sa utol ko, yong mga early L200's di daw pwede yon, and about sa ecu, pina check ko rin sa utol ko kung meron ba sa may footwell ng front passenger,ito kasi sabi ng ralliart para doon i connect yong wires ng chip. meron naman daw sabi utol ko hindi nga lang ECU ang nakalagay kundi parang mitsubishi electronic unit.. and another thing is iba ang itsura ng power chip na yan, exclusive for isuzu lang cguro yan.? sa L200 is 2 klase merong maliit at yong ralliart na malaki with adjustments and exclusive for L200 lang, i think same effect with the dmax. ok na naman sana kahit di lagyan ng power chip yong pick up namin, kaya lang ang pangit kasi pag mahina ang takbo pag di pa gagana ang turbo parang hirap lalo na pag puno ng karga, so mapipilitan kang i rev siya up to 2500, pero pag naka turbo na ok naman mafifeel mo pa sipa niya,anyway hopefully the chip will help to reduce the turbo lag since grabe sa L200, dont know sa bago model.
