New Mitsubishi Strada [ARCHIVED]

[ThePatriarch]

wish me luck guys. susubukan ko dalhin ngayon sa citimotors alabang si Trixie. Sa kakabasa ko ng 600 pages na thread dito ngayon ko lang talaga napatunayan na tabingi talaga yung Strada ko. May connection naman ako dun kaya I hope I wont have any problems. Wish me luck na lang. hehehe. Ill keep you posted kung anong nangyari. BTW, di pa rin ako official member ng TSCP. di ko pa nasusubmit form ko. wala pa bang mini EB dyan para masubmit ko na?

sa friday may mini EB sa metrowalk ortigas... also, wait lang tayo ng announcement from 'thundercats' sael kung kailan mini EB ng south boys.

*elwynvn, feel free to introduce yourself to Thundercats Sael by texting him. Click HERE to get his contact number... HTH.

anyway,i might go to the local Mitsubishi delaer here in Zamboanga to inquire about having that part of the dashboard replaced...the stain is really bothering me...i can't live with the thought that my Strada is still fairly new(1500KMs palang as of today) and with a already damaged dashboard...any last minute advice/suggestions?any tips/warnings i should give the less experienced Mitsubishi staff/personnel/mechanics Zamboanga counterparts before they take my Stradas dashboard apart(waaaah!)?Thanks yet again in advance!!!

Before they take it apart, may i suggest that you ask for the part number first then they must search for it in their inventory if they have it. Part numbers for Stradas and typical present day Mitsubishi models would be about 8-10 alpha-numberic characters i.e. MN12345678. Getting the part number will come in handy in case you need to search for that specific part in other Mitsubishi authorized parts center/Casa. In that way, they will "walk the talk"... hehehehe...

Good Luck sir. Here is hoping you will be satisfied with their results.

Thanks mga sirs for the replies/ideas...ummm,i tried WD-40..i think i just made it worse!sigh...i have a question..worse comes to worst..if it really bothers me(im really O.C.) and if i really really want to,is that part of the dashboard replaceable?i assume it is...is it advisable?will they have to take all of the dashboard apart?will they be able to put everything back together in its original form?please help...thanks again in advance!

hi there, last ditch effort before you dismantle the dash... had the same problem with the same "non-slip" product. didn't really mind the stain that much, but when i had ***ybitch cleaned by the mall car wash guys (gateway in particular, blue and green uniforms) after the floods, the stain disappeared.

i asked what he used on the dash, he said it was "silicone". dunno if there's an available commercial brand or if it's a proprietary cleaning product.

at any rate, i think it's worth a try.

cheers

Hello mga strada brothers!

tanong ko lang sana about the prices of 2nd hand strada's.
balak ko kasi bumili sana one for my business and daily driver narin.

kahit figures lang, I'll appreciate it hehe

[ssaloon]

Wow lufet na set-up, monster size intercoolers & looks like twin turbos

Nah, it's a single turbo setup. TT's are not ideal for 4 cylinder engines. The piping on the right is connected from the intercooler to the intake manifold.

That's a big ass FMIC and kuhol!

Hello guys, sorry kung di na ako nakakapost dito... been busy fixing and cleaning the house after the flood. My dependable mistress (strada) is only 2 weeks old and 750 km na ang tinatakbo nya. Nagpakabit ako ng topup sa miggyboy nung bagyo para incase of emergency salpak na lang ng salpak ng mga masasave na gamit at pagkain pag nag evacuate kami ulit. Salamat naman at ok na ang panahon.

When I was at Miggyboy, magpapakabit sana ako ng turbo timer kaya lang ayaw akong kabitan nung malaman na Strada ang truck ko. Sa Hilux lang daw sila nagkakabit kasi socket type daw. Baka daw ma void ang electrical warranty ng truck ko. May irerecommend daw sya kaya lang hanggang ngayon di pa nya natetext sa akin. Can you guys recommend a shop where i can have a turbotimer installed. Hirap kasing maging human turbo timer.

Another thing, I don't know kung dahil sa baha pero a few days ago ang lakas ng squeeking noise sa may leaf spring ng truck ko. Nakakahiya sa mga sumasakay kasi kabago bago lang maingay na. WD40 lang pala ang katapat. Now after ilang days na, no more squeeking noise.

Gusto ko ring saluduhan ang lahat ng mga BOSBs na tumulong nung bagyo. Good Job guys. Sana next time makasama na ako, pag di na ako biktima.

How reliable these Instruments?
Last saturday I was traveling in parallel with the direction of storm pepeng, though hundred miles apart. Due to my curiosity I started pressing different displays on the panel when my attention was caught by the reading of the barometer that shows 986mb then gone down to 982mb meaning Iam steering nearer the center so decided to turn back until reading climb to 1000mb, finally discontinue the trip up north. I have aborted my trip basing the barometric reading of my strada.
Any body have the idea how much is the margin of error for the barometer & elevation installed in our Strada. Compass ,I will not rely very much because of the steel & iron sorrounding the compass unless it is a gyro.
Thanks..RTS

(((IMO, AFAIK)))

I believe you are referring to what Mitsubishi calls as the RV (Recreation Vehicle) Meter first used in the CK series Pajero. Now found in the Strada.

Supposedly, it should be relied on especially for hard core offroad 4x4 users. To this date i think you are the first who reported about this issue. My apologies as I cannot give you a concrete answer for now. However in case you wish to join us at the Sagada Fun Run, we can probably ask all GLS and GLS Sport users of what their readings are and see if any of them needs (perhaps) reseting or recalibration. One of the steps to reseting the RV Meter (Compass, Barometer, Altimeter) might require you drive in circles until it the meter will tell you to stop and has been refreshed . HTH po... thanks and hope to see you soon.

in the meantime, lets wait for the other 2.5 GLS and 3.2 GLS Sport users and BOSBs to shed light on this.

Low presure in higher elevation is fine but not at or near sea level.

Sir Dadz,

Maganda yang flares na yan ah. Kailangan ba butasan yung body? It seems that its bolted on the fender.

Available for shipment to the PI? How much will it cost?

mga sir. wala akong nabasa kung may avail na po nito dito. or meron bang magoorder sa thailand. kung meron po, how much po? im very much interested

[av8or5]

mga sir. wala akong nabasa kung may avail na po nito dito. or meron bang magoorder sa thailand. kung meron po, how much po? im very much interested

sir, i think it was discussed already. try checking the strada modification thread. not available dito pinas, but pwede order kay dadz who is based in thailand. i think mga P10K pataas ang cost..and drilling is needed.

[MUTTLEY]

help naman po,

what tire size can you recommend on a stock mags (glx) that will look nice and without a fender flare? brand na rin po (no off roading) TIA

235/85 would surely look nice on it.....like what TK did (our member from cebu).... its the similar size as what they used in the dakar race...

For the price sir....Im not so sure....medyo madami kasing nagmamahal sa strada kaya bihira ang nagbebenta kaya medyo matatagalan pa siguro para magkaroon ng talagang appropriate resale value....Unlike other pickups na in less than one year benta na agad wala pa 10k mileage just like what my friend's mom did....kukuha daw kasi nung bagong facelifted na strada :peace:
