    tamang 120kph lang top speed ko sa sportivo 05 ko,smooth na smooth pa din tunog ng engine ko dun,hindi naman sya maingay tulad ng sabi nung iba,siguro alaga ko lang din sa maintenance lalo sa regular na pagpalit ng oil,once a year din kasi ako nagpapalit ng gear oil sa differential at transmission oil,napakamura lang naman,kasi sa gasoline station na lang ako napa service...saka di naman din kasi ako kaskasero...

    But yesterday my trip to La Union using an EX lancer, I had the surprise of my life.

    I was really enjoying the power of the 4b11 engine zipping thru light NLEX traffic at 120kph-130kph just playin. Then when dad told me to slow down a bit, mellowed down to a 100kph. I was on the left lane. Then this sportivo trailing from behind very closely, started blinking his headlight, sabi ko aba ambisyoso tong Isuzung to ah, iniilawan ako( I know its limits I have one right?) so I increased speed to 110-115ish kph, he was still there ( I thought this guy is a freakin family driver walang paki sa sasakyan ng amo) iniilawan parin ako, so increased the speed to around 120ish kph, umagwat ng onti, pero di ako lumalayo ( sabi ko aba tado to ah) so increased speed to about 130kph, I just dont want the feeling of cars trailing me at those speeds, lalo na crosswind family. Medyo lumayo nako pero visible parin siya, so ok, naka tulog na si erpats, so sabi ko 140ish kph na to ang kulit e, nawala na siya finally.

    But lo and behold, pag dating ko sa toll gate, pag hinto ko sa pila, ilang segundo lang andyan na siya, sa likod ko pa pumwesto.

    Am I missing something here?, are sportivos faster than my 03XUVI? Magaling lang ba driver nun? Mabigat lang ba talaga ang XUVI compared to bare ones? O hirap na din yun pero wala paki driver?

    I have experience like this. . .convoy kami bayaw ko sa NLEX, he was using ford escape, ako XUVi 2004. . . ako im cruising at the spped of 90-100. . . sabi nya sya naman ay around 100-120 na. . . could it be na medyo conservative lang meter ng crosswind pero actually mabilis na sya?

    Pansin ko rin kasi sa coastal road, eto ang daily route ko, 80kph lang takbo ko pero ang dami ko ng na-oovertake na cars. . . (baka lahat sila 70 lang ang takbo, ). . .

    mga sir, newbie po. tanong lang po ako, XTO 2001 matic po gamit ko, nabili ko mga 1 mo. na. may mga time po kasi na kahit nakatapak na sa gas, ayaw nya umarangkada agad,napaka bagal po. mga 30sec po siguro bago sya umarangakada ng normal. nagpalit na po ako ng ATF mga two weeks na, pero nong pnaCheck ko po ulit, ang itim na agad ng ATF. ATF lang po mismo pnalitan, hndi nalinis or napalitan ang filter. Sana po may makatulong sa problema ko, maraming salamat po in advance.

    There are a good number of reason how an engine performs. Upgrades, lubes used, are some to mention why it performs 'better' than others.

    Engine performance is also dependent on 'how' you use it.... particularly diesel engines. I would like to assume that the owner of that Crosswind that trailed you often pushes his to it's limits. If he often drive his Crosswind on high speeds (i.e. highways), it is likely that his fuel lines are clear (clean), no carbon deposits and engine is 'tuned' to high speeds.

    That is why engines often stuck in traffic are more 'stressed' than engines that often run on high speed.

    *benzar, papalitan mo na ang filter, baka yung torque converter mo baka dapat na ding palitan...

    Try changing the filter first....
