2010 Mitsubishi Strada [continued 2]

[MyD]

Actually madami po kayo naghihintay for a GLX VGT M/T. Lets wait for the others baka meron po sila alam. Pero sabi po ng isang SA sa akin by next year daw maglalabas na ng M/T w/ VGT na po.

Thanks sir.

mga sir, any reviews po sa Hurricane Drop-in Air Filter?

Hurricane air filters don't need to be oiled while K&N needs oiling, Hurricane makes the engine breathe easier (bit more HP) BUT less filtration. IMO, I dont want my engine ingesting dust. Based on their site, filters that uses oil makaka sira daw to sa MAF sensor... We've been using K&N on all our rides wala naman naging problema.

so +1 ako kay KCboy.

Im using Hurricane Air Filter (drop-in) for quiet sometime, so far wala akong problema kaya lang meroon akong little modification na ginawa, naka upo siya sa thin filter sheet (aircon filter) every month pina pagpag ko ang alikabok kasama na rin ang linis ng stainless filter. I frequently check the appearance of the oil thru dip stick malinaw pa rin ,no alarming sediments deposit, normal.

[doy]

Ano po ba ginawa nyo sir? nawala ba ung tunog? di ko kasi napa-check sa mekaniko nung bumalik ako sa casa, nakalimotan ko., di rin kasi napapansin pag sirado ung windows

Pinabayaan ko nalang, sir. But do consider sir mjlu's suggestion.

[MyD]

I sent an email to citimotors makati. I inquire about the possibility of a GLX-V MT next year. The Sales Manager replied and said "mitsu has no plan of GLX-V MT"... What a sad news... :-(

That is so true sir. Sorry if the SA gave me a wrong info regarding the GLX-V M/T. A lot of people were looking forward to the GLX-V M/T kung magkakaroon. On that note, I guess one of the reasons bakit hindi naglabas ng M/T na GLX-V is because the current GLX is already too powerful for the Clutch disc installed. Madami na daw po nasunugan ng clutch because too powerful daw yung makina according to some mechanics I spoke to. I'm inclined to believe it kasi nagpalit na ako ng clutch because of the rattling sound. Then there are other cases na rin here wherein nagpalit na rin sila ng clutch. Do take note 1 year pa lang si Spikey and no I am not a clutch driver. Never naman rin ako nasunugan ng clutch from 20 years of driving.

Sarap lang po talaga ihataw ng GLX M/T kasi parang kotse rin talaga with enough torque. Sir you might just consider the GLX kung manual lang rin. Ok pa rin siya or kung bitin talaga try to get the 3.2 GLS M/T more power and torque. I'm sure baka naka sale na ito.

Yes, 3.2 is powerful but i'm looking forward sana for a truck with lesser displacement but comparable with 3.2 in terms of power and torque. Hindi naman kasi ako madalas mag offroad, minsan lang pag may roadtrip sa Sagada or Banaue or pag umuuwi sa province. So most of the time it's for city driving.

Anyway, i need to accept the fact even if it's not so good.

Thanks.

hi mga sirs! about po sa turbo, ano po ba dapat ang cool down period?, nabasa ko sa ibang forum, 30 sec - 1 1/2 minute, sapat na daw to cool down turbo before turning off engine, tama po ba? recommended nyo po ba ang turbo timer?

Minimum of 30sec max of 2 mins pg sumobra sayang sa fuel

Actually, meron naman sir na VGT MT kaya lang 4x4 (GLS MT). Medyo mahal nga lang sya, nasa 1.2M at hindi kaya ng budget ko at the same time hindi suited sa purpose na most of the time everyday car ko lang sya.

Kung ganon sir GLX na lang po kayo. No other choice po since you said you've confirmed it with the manager. Point lang siguro ni S'Bobothewiseman is because naglabas na ng VGT 4x2 M/T sa montero baka sumunod na rin po yung sa strada. How we all wished lang po diba? Anyway, you still have till next year to wait and see kung ano po puwede mangyari. Just in case, Happy GLX user here po sir. Good Luck.

[prinx_09]

it might kill the Montero 4x2 MT market, yung monty 4x2 vgt MT is already limited, so impossible for the strada 4x2 MT, unless it will be a limited edtion as well... kaya top of the line lang na 4x4 meron strada MT vgt. if you can wait... why not

Bobothewiseman;1842155]Minimum of 30sec max of 2 mins pg sumobra sayang sa fuel

*renc, agree with Bobothewiseman.
I don' have a turbo timer so I just manually time it.
City driving 30 sec - 1 min. depending on the time travelling within the city.
Long drive - 2 mins. I sometimes have it until 3 minutes depending on the distance.

Turbo Timer, it is your preference. What is the main use of the turbo timer? It will have a time defined for the engine running before it turns off. You can turn the ignition off, lock the door and leave the truck running on a defined time in other word no waiting time.

Well, i decided to go with the GLX-V AT nalang. Gusto ko talaga VGT.

Congratulations Sir!!! Don't forget to join the club. Sabi niyo naman mostly city driving kayo, the A/T will help alot in traffic.
