New Mitsubishi Strada [ARCHIVED]

[louchua]

Orig te37X 16 in. costs about 125k while the te37 large pcd 18 in.s costs about 170k.

Te37X talaga ang first choice ko kaya lang ang mahal at per order basis pa. Merong rota copy at ang tawag ay grid. Maganda rin siya kaya lang walang 18 in. na size. Meron taiwan copy na 18 in. pero mga 60-80k yata yung price. Kung ganoon kamahal tapos copy lang, mag orig gramlights ka na lang. Gawa rin ng rays engineering at jdm na jdm pa ang dating.

Kung 18 in. ang mags mo, ang mabibili mong tires eh highway biased lang, at ang mahal pa.

If money is not an issue, then go for the 18 in. te37

Ganun pala ka mahal yun? dang! well over 100k pala.. I was told that if i can get someone to import it from japan it'll be lots cheaper.

Kasi kung ganun lang kamahal i'd be tempted to get a decent 20 inch mags, black chrome with polished lip. Kasi yun talaga look na habol ko but considering yung byahe ko hindi nga practical, but im seriously considering it.

I have the Rota Grid installed in my other pickup, 96 nissan eagle. Iba pa rin talaga yung Volk eh.. I'll check out the Gramlights that you were talking about. Thanks!

[louchua]

Drave.. question lang. yung gramlights ba meron nung pang 6 holes pang SUV / Pickup? kasi kala ko before pang kotse lang lahat.. Autoplus din ba distributor nun dito?

Also bro, anong rims kinabit mo sa strada mo? thanks.

Meron na ba dio nagkabit ng 20"+ sa strada nila? If so, kamusta naman?

[drey]

*riancruz,

[padoods]

meron na ba ritong naka pag install ng subs sa strada? or heard of/know of anyone who has done so?

Autoplus in greenhills and Emperor in pasig are two of the distributors that I know of rays engineering wheels.

Eto yung sa akin. Bronze 16x7 in. +25 offset


Eto palagay ko magugustuhan mo. 18x 8 nga lang, pero orig at baka ikaw lang ang meron.


Huwag ka nang mag 20's. Di babagay sa pick-up unless naka-lowered ka. 18's pwede pa. There's still enough rubber. Meron nga dito naka 18's na chrome in a white strada. Astig pero mas nakatingin siya sa mags ko hehehe....

[sky_horizon]

guys i just test drove a gls m.t. but i'm planning to buy a automatic. wats the feedback w/ regards to automatic? how the response? does it have enough power and acceleration for overtaking? hoping you guys could help since they don't have an automatic to test drive... thanks...

[Mitsumia]

No problem with A/T. Been using mine for almost 8 mos. Meron konti lag pero ok lang(negligible for me). Acceleration is good. Malakas ang hatak. No prob din overtaking. Good luck sa ride mo. Kunin mo na.

may nagpakabit na ba dto ng fender elim sa miggyboy? ok ba sya? feedback namn po... thanx

Dropped by * Miggyboy yesterday to get fender liners.. I was told that I was the first Strada ever to have fender liners installed, at least at their branch. Puro Fortuner at Innova daw ang nagpapakabit. That got me thinking already.. and true enough, the fender liners for the rear does not fit! The two fronts fit perfectly pero yung sa rear hindi talaga. Sabi OEM pero hindi naman tama yung sukat. They tried to force it pero d talaga kaya. I aksed if I could just get the two fronts pero ayaw nung owner, so wala rin.. sayang lang oras ko.

Nice! Anong model ito and where can I find one? any idea how much? thanks bro..

[Drave]

It's 57SX pro. If I'm not mistaken, it's around 110k, give or take. The last time I was there, which was 3 months ago, they have one but it's 5 holes. If it's not available, you can order but it'll take around 60 days to arrive. Just make sure that the offset is more negative than the stock rims which is +38 so that the wheels would have a wider stance.

[sky_horizon]

i guess i'll be getting the a/t... i just heard from our dealer here that the 3.2 will be coming out. end of july daw... exactly like 2.5 gls variant lang daw pero around 30thou more expensive.. they will be coming out with a 4x2 2.5 betwn 800 to 900 thou. For me the 3.2 is very interesting to get but fuel efficiency is really important to me so m thinking of just getting the 4x4 at 2.5 since you guys are saying na ok naman yung power sa 2.5 at.. what do you guys suggest?

[louchua]

I suggest you get the 3.2L in Black if its only 30k more.. not much to pay for a significant increase in power. But like you said, you're very particular with fuel consumption so it's really up to you. But for me, 30k for an extra 700cc is a bargain! We have a Gen III Pajero with the same engine (4M41) and there si no lag whatsoever. Imagine putting that same engine into the Strada PLUS CRDI.. Bro, that Strada's gonna FLY!!!

[padoods]

louchua hassle yun ah.

hmmm meron pa ba ibang shop/brand na nagkakabit ng fender liners?

[auroraoffroader]

sir!!! is the 3.2 variant going to be a 5 speed a/t? kc tama ka sir louchua kung 30k more lang tapos 5 speed a/t pa the fuel consumption will not increase very much than the 2.5 a/t 4 speed a/t. tama po ba sir?

3.2L 5speed a/t; black!!!!! YUMMY!!!!

[louchua]

louchua hassle yun ah.

hmmm meron pa ba ibang shop/brand na nagkakabit ng fender liners?

Yep hassle talaga, what was supposed to take 1 hour to install took me 4 hours but I still ended up with nothing.. Sayang maganda sana with fenderliners. Mas malinis tingnan yung wheel wells.

I asked around kung may iba pang nagkakabit pero they all referred me to Miggy boy. And I talked to the owner of Miggyboy, sabi niya siya daw major importer nung fendrliners from Thailand. Nationwide daw ang sinusupplyan niya. This was befroe I found out na hindi pala fit yung sa likod hehe.

Kung sino may alam diyan na ibang brand or shop, let us know. tnx!

[tebs]

sana may mga option sila for personal specs like kung gusto mo ng manual for the 3.2L with rear diff locks. may ganun naman sa thailand.

pero the 2.5L 4x4 would already be ample for the average need except if you like to drift with your pick up. hehehe :D

[louchua]

To Drave:

Bro, yung rims mo diba 57sx? Where'd you get it from? orig ba from autoplus? and if you don't mind me asking, magkano mo nakuha?

Thanks.

if ur not power hungry get the 2.5..mas matipid for sure..my black na rin..saw 2 already..sure na ba ubg 3.2 nd 4x2 2.5?aus and dami na choices

[ARB]

the 3.2 engine will be less strained to move the body of the strada, it will consume less fuel on normal driving. Only on full throttle will it use more fuel.

[sky_horizon]

yeah i think i'll be getting the 2.5 lang.. city driving lang use ko at m sure mas matipid ang 2.5... the 4x4 at 4x2 is sure na.. but i think i got the pricing wrong.. sabi naman nang isang sales agent na baka yung 3.2 na price will be a bit lower compared to the hilux 3.0.. pasensya mga bro sa wrong info...
