Ok naman tignan bro, pero ang napansin ko na mas ok ay yung sideskirt na nakalagay!

pogi nung setup ni hivemind! simple lang nga pero may dating. ok pala kung babaan ng onti no? Naisip ko kasi pataasan ng onti tapos lagyan ng mga tipong off-road look na gulong/rims, ok lang kahit labas ng onti yung rubber sa kaha. para maiba lang ba. pero idea lang siya. wala pang funds saka hindi ko pa din talaga sure kung ok yung kakalabasan nya.

steady improving yung FC nung sakin sa 2800kms. last check ko is 12L/km manual compute, xtra unleaded lang ng petron kinakarga ko. subukan ko yung xcs next week or yung shell.

Good AM nga sir. Kasya po ba ang size 16" na mags na picanto natin? Tanong ko lang din po, ano po kaya ang possible problem kapag minsan ayaw mag start agad? yung battery nya ok naman po.

[gherule]

Ang ganda ng setup ni hivemind. Clean look. More pics pa sana. Mukhang mexiflush na ung picanto ko. Either mali ata offset ng rims ko and/or malapad mashado gulong ko. Ang hirap kasi maghanap ng 175/50R15 na stock ng picanto. Suggestion din sa picanto club sa russia na offset +46 pataas ang kailangan. Ang hirap nman mag hanap ng ganun sa 15". I need help kung saan pwedeng pumunta na maraming options for rim. QC area sana. TIA.

Mat, alam ko pwede ang 16" kaso 45 profile lang ang size ng gulong.

Sir, kung gusto niyo ng place na maraming pagpipilian, you can drop by at JDM Wheelz sa Sucat Parañaque. Malulula ka sa sobrang dami ng choices. Mabait pa yung owner nila na si Sam. I am also from QC pero sulit ang layo at pagod pagdating mo dun. They also have their Facebook page, JDM Wheelz.

Note: Puro used rims ang mga binebenta sa shop nila and most of the rims came from Japan.

Hi bro, hindi ba sila nag suggest ng ibang pwedeng gawin, parang sa rio ata nag reset ng ecu or something?

lagpas 3,000kms na ako, it slightly improved from 8.5 to 9km/l pure city driving..

wala bro eh...sabi lang sakin nun mechanic alalay lang daw ako sa timpla ng clutch and gas...short of telling me na wala na silang pwedeng gawin at talagang ganun ang totoong FC nya...i even asked him kung ano ba talagang FC ang dapat kong makuha but sadly wala syang masabi...after nun test nila wala ng kumausap sakin...wala man lang nagconfirm kung ganun ba talaga ang "real world" FC nung auto...actually etong sakin based sa manual computation ko after the test 9.5km/l ang pinakamatipid na nya eh...and after the test nga ni wala man lang nag follow up sakin kung satisfied ako or kung me iba pa ba akong concern...

Sharing lang, got my plates today after 4 months of waiting

congrats on your plates pre!

musta na mga pre? hope your car is doing well

konting update lang from me.. malapit na ako mag 6000KM mark. i tried driving with ECO mode on again expecting to see any difference from my experience during lower mileage. no difference pa rin, i still feel that driving with ECO mode Off is still better for lower fuel consumption goals. i haven't tried driving with ECO mode on via SLEX / SCTEX yet so it's something i'll need to try some time. i also tried putting in Shell Nitro + but no improvement in performance or FC was observed. better to stick with Fuel Save / XCS hehe.

anyway, parami na nang parami ang nakikita kong picanto. i saw a white one with glossy black vinyl sa roof sa may C5-Kalayaan. ganda rin! i'm just not sure kung tatagal ang appeal sa akin, i'm sticking with my stock roof for now hehe. sana magparamdam ang mas maraming picanto owners dito sa tsikot

Congrats sir siopao517!

Btw, I created a group in FB, kasi yung group before is only a page, so hindi masyado updated ang members na nag like.

Please join this group: Log In | Facebook

Since mas marami ang active sa FB, i am assuming na mas magiging active ang discussion dun and hopefully magkapag set ng EB ulit.

Open to all picanto and future picanto owners

[hivemind]

cal0i, magla-like ako mamaya pag asa bahay na ako hehe.

siopao, congrats! gustong-gusto ko rin kulay niyan

[gherule]

Congrats Cal0i and siopao!

Nag pa PMS ako for 15,000 km and umabot ng 7.4k (after discount). So far wala pa namang problema and running smoothly. Also, I changed my wheels from rota fighter to concept one pursuit and wheels from yoko s.drive to nankang NS2. Hindi na sha mukhang mexiflush. I will post pix later. Meron na bang nakahanap ng OE side skirts para sa picanto natin? Pa post na lang kung meron. Any idea din where I could get k emblem for picanto 2011+ locally? TIA

Hi Sirs.. Sobra gusto ko ang style nito picanto 2012 so I started reading this thread since May of 2012 and stopped.. kasi nung una i was kind of disappointed since parang andami nag rereklamo sa FC.. Pero now parang 1.2MT ang the best option if youre after better FC like yun kay sir Hivemind na nasa 14-15km/l. Yun kay sir Caloi po ba nag improve na ba sir A/T niyo? And kay Sir Gherule ba M/T ba sainyo and nag improve po ba?

My last full tank gave me 296KMs.. net net sakto 10KM/L ang nakuha ko. I would say it improves habang tumataas ang mileage ng car ko, and I haven't had any PMS yet.

[gherule]

Hi chichi! Mine is 1.0L MT. I got it 1 week before the 1.2L was released . I even asked the rep kung i-rerelease na nila ung 1.2L pero hindi daw nila alam. Anyway, my FC is around 12-14 km/l city na light to heavy traffic. My highest FC was 16.16 km/l out of 10L of gas. I saw better FC and performance when I started using XCS. I drive with ECO on but will try ECO off baka after a few weeks. I am trying to compute my FC with a 15" rim. I will post update later. HTH.

Sana may mag post pa ng picanto nila dito sa thread. Interesting kasi dumadami na ang nakikita kong picanto.
