DAIHATSU SIRION

[Alanswan]

You coe from the last bidding? Nice timing!

I take it you got the auto one?

I think they are a little short on stock for autos.

For manual immediately, they have stock for lime green, mint blue, black, champagne gold, silver and red.

so i guess i got to guai guai wait till May b4 i can get my car..

Was it the 4-point lower arm bar?

While waiting for the club forum to be up...

 

I'm planning on changing my rims (and tire) to 15".

Any recommendations? Our wheels are 4/100 right?

What's the max offset?

[Alanswan]

Anyone know if rims with 7JJ width will fit in the Sirion?

[Zeagle]

Yes, i'm on 16x7. but ur tyre choice will be limited to 205/45/r16. i have yet to try 195/45/r16 but if u go for the sts upgrade to 16 rims, the rims they give u will be 16x6.5. hope it helps

 

( 16x7 rims will fill up the wheel arch laterally, but still within the bodywidth of the car)

[Alanswan]

I'm looking at 15", so 15x7 can use 195/55R15?

[Zeagle]

Yes, ur range for those tyre size is 15x5.5 to 15x7.

 

for more info, can check www.carbibles.com/tyre_bible.html

 

u can calculate which r the possible combinations for diff sizes; and whether after the upgrade/downgrade the odometer reading differs by how much

[Seanboi]

Hw u find the soundproofing? Find the engine noise quite loud.

[Alanswan]

YES!

can i check did the SE mention to you when can you get the car? coz i was told have to wait till end of may.. very long leh..

 

Hi there, i also book a sirion, and had to wait till end May or June for it. First time owning a car, hope i make the right choice.

[Strawwy_jeynn]

HIHI... this is also the first time i am owning a car... also hope that it's a right choice..hehe... what colour did u choose? mine is mint blue..

My SE just called me yest.. saying maybe can get car by end april.. hopefully but no confirm..

 

anyone can advise me whether is it necessary to go for the first 1000km servicing like wat normal new cars do? coz i was told only need servicing at 15,000km. but dont we need to change engine oil or whatever during the initial 1000km?

[Alanswan]

Wow... That's really good link.

Adding it to the new club forum.... :)

[Xback74]

Initiatially went for the mint blue but change to red.

[Alanswan]

I think I will do servicing only at the recommended interval (15,000km) but will probably do an oil change around 5000km...

Maybe 1000km, maybe 10,000km... Depending on the car I guess...

[Mintblue]

hey, mine is also my 1st car!

 

i did my 1st servicing 5k, was informed by the agent the next one will be 15k n 25k

[Strawwy_jeynn]
