Re: If change halfcut what need to prepare?

4700 is consider too expensive, please check into our previous topics about the halfcut pricing.

please dont be so rush on make deal, better find few halfcuts to compare, actually there are still a lot of KF halfcut out there.

U may ask for our sifu here to help, MK, Poon or etc..., they could provide very useful informations on searching the halfcut.

1. Timing belt kits - RM 200

2. Clutch kits - RM350

3. Plugs (depends on what brand, normal like super 4 RM50 box of 4pcs, you will need 2 boxes maa...6pcs = RM100)

4. Gear Oil & Engine Oil (depends on what brand also. Normal RM40 & RM 55 respectively) = RM110

5. Mountings (if old one cannot use) = depends

6. Water pumps = RM 100

7. Head Gasket (if got leaks) RM 90

8. Air Filter = RM 25

9. Oil Filter = RM 15

10. Fuel Filter = RM 50

11. others ...

all the above already come up to rm950 lor minus the mounting. Actual price may differ, pls check at local store ok. Mine last time cost me RM1100. Still have the receipts for memory...ha..ha..sentimental value ha..ha...and can see how big my pocket hole after that...

Re: If change halfcut what need to prepare?

Absorber mounting broken. => Pls check whether u r using the KF spec absorber or not, if still using the B6 or BP 1, then mounting broken is considered normal, as KF is too heavy for the absorber or mounting that u r using. If u r using the KF absorbers, i think it just wear & tear only.

Gearbox oil leak. => If u didnt change or replace any oil seal or gasket b4 transplant, just plug & play the whole KF in only, problem like this will always happen.

Power Steering leak. => Normally is wear & tear, depends on which part leak, pressure hose? pump? steering rack?

Engine mounting (Behind engine) broken. => It is very important part that must be replace with new one b4 engine transplant, as it is the most difficult part to change afterward.

Some front wheel bush broke. => If u were from B6 to KF, this is normal, as B6 lower arm bushes cant withstand the KF's weight, especially the rear lower arm bush.  

Front wheel got "klock klock" sound come out. (Still dont know what problem) => If all the lower arm bushes gone already, u will have the 'klock' sound when u acceralating, turning in corner or rough road condition; If u heard the 'klock' sound once u finish turned the steering to left or right, that means ur driveshaft cover broken, and driveshaft head also gone already.

 

So, I think u can feeling there is a lot of parts that will need to be change now, but this is normal since Lantis is not a new car. However, if u could fix all these problem 1 by 1, u can get it back to the new car feeling in term of handling. Maybe u could also look for the upgrading parts for the replacements, it is worth to do it that way, as Lantis' handling design is better than a lot of else cars in the market.

Re: If change halfcut what need to prepare?

Ya, as you say when i convert to KF is plug and play only, just only change all the belt and oil only.

So right now need change all the lower bush, mounting and etc and it will cost alot of money......

And also need to repaint my hold car body due to the paint was "brake".
