Toyota Vios [Merged]

[inlook]

question lang, ang Vios ba actually ay new model ng Echo?

[ssaloon]

alam ko nde eh, they just share the same engine... ang echo, which is a prius in the US is set for a model makeover this 2004 according to C! Magazine.

Any peeps know where to find VIOS TRD skirts (orig or fake) or other parts to pretty up?? Not interested with Altis chrome stick-ons which reminds me of some dorky eyeglass frames:freak: :freak:

[dieselNUBI]

mags nalng palitan mo.

yea, wag mo na lagyan ng mga chrome stick ons..... well maybe except for the door handle.... kasi sa ibang bansa standard na un eh. babagay sya depending on your body color...

[Monseratto]

So far I changed the bulbs to Blue Vision, Changed the Revo steering wheel w/ MOMO, Chrome Handles for Camry, BTW color of my ride is scarlet fury. May nag-offer sa Otis ng wrap-around skirts w/ free back-up sensor. The skirts are moulded in light plastic not fibreglass. P 45,000 w/ painting and installation. Is this OK??

[OTEP]

Plastic is better than fiberglass (it does not warp nor crack). Your bumpers are made of plastic.

I just don't know if the price is good. For sure mas mahal ang plastics.

[Shintaro]

I don't think the skirts will look good on stock wheels.Nakita ko sa casa yung naka wrap around nila tapos yun din yung gulong parang di ayos...palagay ko lang naman.

pre check mo yung pbase ko baka makakuha ka ng idea

May naka-display ngayon sa Otis ng itim na VIOS na naka-lowered, and full bodykit. Pero naka 15s na 195/65 kaya ang pangit!!! May offer silang mas mura, P 40,000 full body kit na plastic with door window sunvisors. I checked the body kit and they look good enough, black moulded and all. I want to find out who brought them in para maka mura lalo.

I think 16's will look good on the Vios. I bought 15 inchers shod with 195/55 tires for my wife's Vios. Nakakita na rin ako ng several na naka 16 sa roads, and I have to admit they really look cool.
I just decided to settle for the 15 inchers since I didn't want ride comfort to suffer significantly. With the 15's nga, may noticeable difference na with the car's ride. But if you don't mind at all the slightly harsher ride of the bigger wheels, then I suggest you go with the 16's.

bacon, magkano bili mo dun sa set of 15" wheels ng Esmi mo pati rims? Yung sa Tom's version ng Vios naka 205/45/R16 (ES 100).Mabangis ang hitsura kaso mas mabangis siguro ang presyo!

[Shintaro]

Correction to my query above, ibig ko sabihin 15" Tyres and Mags (not wheels and Rims...pareho nga pala yun,heh,heh,heh...

[Monseratto]

Guyz, pls. look at this ride, it was featured in Hypertune Magazine in Malaysia. 205/40/17 ang mags niya.

And here's something you should not do to your ride

[toink]

ok sana kaso parang anlaki pa din gap ng fender sa tires. (yung space ba) pano ba nare-remedyuhan 'yun?

[bacon]

Shintaro,

I got Taiwan made wheels (13.5k, similarly priced with Rota's) and Korean tires (more or less 1.8k each, can't remember exactly how much). Since the car will be driven by a driver to bring my wife to work and will be used for color coding chores only, we decided to settle for the less expensive tires. We don't foresee the car being driven at high speeds on a regular basis kaya hindi na kami bumili ng japanese brand tires which are priced at 2.5k each for the dimensions I mentioned above.

Yung dimensions ng tires na nasulat mo for the 16 inchers would be a good choice. However, you can possibly try 205/50/R16 when you're at the tire shop. Check mo lang na walang complications if you decide to get the higher profile tires. The 50 series might offer you a more comfortable ride than the 45.
