Soya Supersonic December 2, 2003 Share December 2, 2003 one of the biggest hurdle in self importing is that u hv to pay cash for the car upfront. but since MI's rex omv is onli abt 20k (and that's incl freight), add another $5k for non-agent price, the hurdle doesn't seem that difficult to overcome. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magfocus 5th Gear December 2, 2003 Share December 2, 2003 Ahh so the PI one is the JDM "NB" model i think But as with most turbos, added power is but a tweak away Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
En0203 2nd Gear December 2, 2003 Share December 2, 2003 but after added the taxes and COE, is it really cheaper to do self-importing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
En0203 2nd Gear December 2, 2003 Share December 2, 2003 But as with most turbos, added power is but a tweak away talking about tweaking.. may i know how to go about tuning the engine to increase the hp? i have an old car at home with v8 3.5L but only 152 bhp, heard it can be easily tuned to 200 - 220 bhp, but the questions is how?

Hmm..what car do you have at home with a V8 3.5? oh that means when they say 'tune' they actually means mod?? i was stupid enough to think that 'tune' means just change some setting without adding in new stuff the old car is a rover, no one is using coz too jiak yiu (eat petrol) liao so at home collecting dust.. what a waste.. don't think can start anymore.. i am planning to restore it when i have some $$ to spare in the future Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magfocus 5th Gear December 2, 2003 Share December 2, 2003 Do you know the diff in the STi & STi spec C, besides just the weight I believe they use a different turbo, and the deletion of aircon etc Probably suspension and steering settings as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magfocus 5th Gear December 2, 2003 Share December 2, 2003 Don't quote me, i might be wrong, tune might be some fiddling of settings Like ECU tune might be the changing of some parameter Wow..you mean you have a car just sitting at home Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
