just in case mayroon may gusto, pm na lang.
depende sir sa plano mong lift ang magiging budget. meron gumagawa na lift spacer lang kay Manolo ng Strada club parang around 12-13K nung huli kong natanong.
ako sir yung plan ko is ironman suspension, affordable kasi at sa mga napagtanungan ko sulit daw. bali ang magiging set up ko is palit shocks at coils sa harap, then sa likod palit shocks then gamit lift block. pag palit kasi leaf spring mahal din.
aabutin ako around 33K more or less dun sa ganung set up. kay Monsterworx ako papalift sa kanya kasi yung pinaka mura ko na canvass
2" lift yun sir
sir sagutin ko lang base sa mga na basa at natanong ko ha, wala pa ako kasi masyado experience dyan.
kung body lift kasi ang advantage mura, then makakapag salpak ka ng big rims at tires. pero downside, ground clearance mo same lang tapos kung AT ka ewan ko kung kaya kasi yung transmission mo di ata kasi tataas yun. ewan ko lang yung engine kung paano.
for me mas ok yung suspension lift para tataas talaga ground clearance.
lift block and spacer is sometimes called budget meals of the lift. sa ground clearance same lang sila. usually di na nag papalit ang iba nang shock pag mga 2" lift lang dahil kaya pa naman ang travel nang stock shock natin lalo na if di ka rin lang naman pumupunta sa hardcore trailing. but then yung iba naman mas prefer nila mag palit nang longer shock para mas maganda ang travel nang shock and hindi nasasagad. but then again gagamit pa ring nang lift blick sa rear pg nagpa lift ka w/ ironman shocks.
may advatage din ang A/T sa M/T tranmisision when it come to lift dahil A/T has 1piece tail shaft kaya mas less prone sya sa vibration compare sa M/T that has 2piece tail shaft that can cause vibration dahil nag change na ang geometry nang center bearing at tailshaft during the lift. some guys use spacer , wedge or turn the center bearing 180deg to reduce the vibration. kaya most of the fabricators like monsterworkz or 199offroad house advice na wag sumobra sa 2" ang lift if possible.
mga sir salamat po sa pag appreciate
yung rim ko po ROH 16" 15,600 kuha ko
yung goma medyo mahal inabot ako around 45K more or less. madami naman ibang choice din ng goma kung AT or MT mga mudstar alam ko 7-8K/pc
yung kinuha ko kasi is Cooper ST Maxx. Hybrid sya ng AT/MT ang advantage is ok sya sa wet road compared sa typical MT tires. tapos less ang noise sa highway pero pwede sya pang mud. yun nga lang mas mahal hehehe
size pala ng goma ko 265/75/16 so more or less 32" pag umabot daw kasi ng 33" may rubbing na kahit lifted ng 2"
can I join this club?=) I will receive delivery of my family's 2013 Strada GLX-V, AT Black, Limited Edition this afternoon. I'd like to know a few things from you guys:
1. Is there really no USB port? This dealer says wala talaga pero yung isang dealer sa Malolos sabi meron daw nakatago lang.
2. Suppose I'd like to replace the stock tire. Can you recommend a tire shop where I can swap the stock tires with say, a 245/70- R16? Or perhaps you can suggest a better replacement?
3. The dealer quote P10.5K for NAV activation including GPS antenna. Can I save if I had this done outside? Where?
4. I've read Stradas do not come with cabin air filter so I asked the dealer if this is the case. But they said older ones did not have filters but these new ones have. Ayoko pa kasing kalikutin yung likod ng glove compartment to check, so I have to take the dealer's word for this. But if anyone here has already verified this, I'd appreciate the information.
Yun lang po muna. I'm off to enjoy our new ride!=)
sa tingin ko sir walang cabin filter yan. sa akin kasi nov ko nakuha 2013 model na din sya, pero wala din cabin filter, actually di mo sya makikita agad, kasi yung nakatakip sa kanya sealed, para mag install ka kailangan mo din palitan yung cover nun. pero may nakaabang na pwede mo paglagyan ng screw.
You can join strada club by checking their web site The Strada Club of the Philippines or join fb group http://www.facebook.com/groups/stradaclub/ for updates of EB's and announcemnts.
1. Yes, USB port is inside the glove compartment.
2. You can go to Wheel Gallery for the tires and rims and trade-in. sometimes may mga promo din sila.
3. Its always cheaper to install any mods outside of the casa. if you're not worried of any warranty issues then its better to install any mods outside the casa.
4. Yes, strada's doesnt have cabin air filter. a lot of auto shops sell them though.
Wag kang umasa sa mga SA for technicalities nang car. They are dumb when it comes to those kind of things.
mga sir medyo parang tanga lang yun tanong ko ah... sorry pero hindi ko kasi talaga alam... hehe
pag park mo tapos let's say maiiwan ka sa loob dahil yun kasama mo lang may bibilhin saglit sa tindahan,
edi papatayin mo makina tapos bbuksan mo bintana diba?
kaso bakit ganun kapag ni-lock mo sa loob yun door mo nag aactivate yung alarm? (tutunog TuuT) tapos kapag nag unlock ka sa loob din mag aalarm na...
ang hassle kasi eh ang ingay ni strada...
paano kaya i-lock toh ng hindi mag aactivate yun alarm po?
Thanks for the welcome and all your informative replies.
Medyo high pa ako ngayon sa bago naming car hehe. Will post picture soon. I'll install the cabin air filter when i have one already.
I noticed the car's tweeters doesn't work. Or bingi lang ako. Or walang lamang tweeters yung pillars.
Man, this is a fast pickup! 110kph (nlex) and yet it's still asking to pull forward. Konting tapak lang hahataw pa.
Buti nalang di ako mahilig magpatakbo ng mabilis, ahem ahem. this is only for break-in and when overtaking.
thanks sir walter try ko po yan bukas :D
*ctrlaltdel
wala pong tweeter yun model ng strada natin eh.. kung mapapansin mo sa brochure 4 speakers lang dalawa sa harap dalawa sa likod...
uu mabilis talaga lalo na sa 2k rpm pataas.
