If I had the spare cash (and the wife's approval hehe) I'd get a chip upgrade for mine. I guess the only negative I foresee with this upgrade are smoked tires

Yup Memphs, but the performance pack that the Isuzu Uk are offering on their top of the line Dmaxs are not aftermarket upgrades but as one of their variants - meaning its company installed.

I'm now even wondering if this is what toyota did to their D4Ds. With their 3.0L producing 160 plus HP compared to Isuzu producing only 146HP with the same displacement.

'pre wala nako gilowered na as is pa rin, tanong ka sa akin sa cardomain kung saan ko binili ang body kit ko di ba?"
A-toy bodykits ko binili yan sa west ave, quezon city..

Balak ko pa lang ilowered ng 2" kalsuhan lang sa likod at adjustment ng torsion sa harapan.

ewan ku kung tama itong gagawin ko

may nakita ako dito sa cebu na naka lowered last april, pati si jarhead nakita nya yun kaya lang matagal ko na hinahanap dito sa cebu di ko na nakita, tignan ko sana kung paano ginawa nya..may mahusay dito maglowered sa Ric's...

just went to isuzu yesterday to look for a new pick-up for my bro. we asked if there was a posibility they would be a release of the new engine kso wala pa daw update from the plant.

we compared it to the interior of the strada, personally we preffered the quality of the plastics of the d-max. Just dont know why some think the interior of the strada's better. but I feel the 07 d-max's interior and build is more tighter and solid.

also 07 d-max seems taller/higher than the 05 and 06 models. SA cant give us answers why this is so, but we like the 07. think we're gonna wait for new engine though..

yes bro

,, konting pasensiya at hintayin mo na ang bagong dmax,,

even the second row is quite spacious, just hope they bring it out the new engine soon.
me napansin lang ako when we asked for a look at a 4x4 d-max or altera and there no units available. I guess its true that the d-max out sold the competition...
