Well, in China, Vios is using 2SZ-VE (1.3) and 3SZ-VE (1.5), whereby Vios
outside China (eg Thai, Msia etc), Vios is using 1NZ-FE (1.5).

The 3SZ-VE is also used in Daihatsu Bego, Daihatsu Xenia (Toyota Avanza)
and Daihatsu Material (Toyota Bb). And surprisingly, the 1NZ-FE, beside
used in Vios, it is also used in JDM Toyota Corolla and many others Toyota
1500cc model.

I believe the 3SZ-VE is by Daihatsu and 1NZ-FE is by Toyota. I have not
seen any 1NZ-FE being used in any Daihatsu model.

It's so misleading.

not to mention they look silly too!!!
SD always came up with ######up writeup

he mention about the avanza 1.5 came up with better suspension... whreas i
found there's no mention whatsoever from toyota about the re-engineering
of d avanza buckling bronco rear suspension during the lunching of 1.5.

if they did someting about it i'm sure it will be mentioned in dpress
conference...


or maybe Sd knew someting that we dont?

Hi everybody,

Just to update.

My SMS to NST's Car Bikes Trucks was EDITED as well. (It was short, hence
not related to the length - there are other SMS that are longer than mine,
published)

It made me sound "infant" in the SMS.

So, you might want to think twice before writing to them. You might sound
completely opposite after they are done with "editing" your message.

regards,
Lance

rikeys,

Yupe, I listen more and post, mostly, useful stuff (non-NMT kind lar...).
Hence the much lesser posting count.

Hey, we're not trying to win any volume contest here ... or are we?!
