Welcome to all owners of Toyota Fortuner [ARCHIVED]

[lancelot]

toadstool,

What shop did your friend find the turbo timer?

Thanks

Brought our new member of the family home, I'm feeling kinda dizzy while typing this reply because of the fumes from the rustproofing (btw guys, i'm sorry if I kinda misled some of the readers about soundproofing... It's just that every vehicle I had rustproofed sounded "newer' or "quieter" for lack of a better word after being treated). The dark gray mica actually looks kinda bluish to me, in fact when parked next to my pick-up truck ('97 Pathfinder) they look like siblings! Btw Boss Vic, please add me to the list. Thanks guys for keeping me company, hope to see you on the road. Will post some pics soon.

The new face lift model of the VIOS is on its way. They are finishing existing inventory, which is doing well. Number 1 siya kasi sa mga Med Rep. The Vios is not subject to price increase on the old model this Oct. 3. Wala pa atang stock. But surely iba yung presyo nung facelift model.

guys,

san makakabili ng front tire cover? kc walang ganun ung sa fortuner and yung head-unit ba pwede lagyan ng pioneer 7650?

Mushi_Mushi: Hindi naman mga sobrang yaman lang ang nakaka-kuha ng Fortuners ng maaga. Madami din dyan na may pera din, pero ayaw magpa-taga sa IHI and IHF, kelseat, 20" rims, and other what-have-you packages. Kasi it defeats the whole purpose of the Fortuner being 'sulit'. It caught the eye of most because of the very low price, pero madami palang hidden payments.

how much is fortuner d4d and vvti? which is better to get?

[allenjo]

At last...after several harrowing experiences from toyota dealers and a wild tongue lashing from my mother, our Fortuner was released last saturday at 7:30 PM just a couple of days before the supposed price increase! We were forced to bite the IHI & IHF but accesories were not forced on us. Also, to immediately get the unit, we changed our order from the VVT-i model to the 2.5 D4D grade! At least, we can sleep soundly now! We got the Dark Gray Mica Color pala

guys, ganda huper optik na tint sa fortuner. i had mine installed yesterday, bagay na bagay. medyo pricey nga lang. if you're gonna buy it locally, P22k. mine was given by a friend who came from germany.

Kung gusto nyo nearly as good as huper optik, pero priced a lot less, try Solar Gard. Kung same price as huper optik, pwede na V-Kool by Solar Gard. It's way better than 3M, in terms of UV filtering.

I would love to have something like this done...

[JunDC]

vicoyski, la pa ba dito yung plastic na wheel well guards? if it is available locally, where can i buy it and how much? If i'm not mistaken, the brand is aeroguard, i saw it sa fortuner.com.

[ultraman]

thats nice. or buy yung archos para you can put several movies in it.

[JunDC]

sorry, fortunerclub.com pala

I beg to disagree. I had mine compared (and confirmed) with my friend who owns a 4x4 and a 4x2D4D. According to him, halos pareho lang ang hatak... pero magkakatalo na lang sa rekta. Also, the 4x2D4D is very economical. I am running my 2nd "fuel test" now; in a few days, I'll post the result. Easy driving.
