Normally we use to source parts from Half cut, because there are more cheaper and most of the items are import from Japan.
Some owner do drive their cars from Malaysia to Singapore for some new parts upgrade, some of the parts might be cheaper because import duty in singapore are cheaper. |

tappet pan gasket
plug seals
high pressure power steering line
inner & outer ends
all bushings (front & back)
brake pads & brake shoes
end links
shocks
all ordered oem from japan so i will fill you fellas in on the final cost
no they are not bad its just good maintenance  |
show off
but you are right about maintenance, although when it comes to bushings, I adopt a run-till-fail approach,
engine cam and crank seals were changed in teh 100,000km service
believe it or not ppl, Blondie doing 110,000km and I have only changed cradle arm bushings,
I never had cause to change any other suspension parts, every time I take her fo a check, she is all good
alligned twice and cambered once - serious
every time i take her for an allignment, it is good, no need for allignment
even after changing tyres, she never called for allignment
tyres wear evenly
all suspension parts are OEM
I LOVE My MITSU's
as for teh choice of oil @ 116,000km, synthetic
Mobil1 5W-50 or Shell in similar grade
Using the Mobil1 in Blondie since 22,000km till now

Help:
My CS taking a long time to start. It's beginning to get worst, I hear a click sound in the engine bay when I turn the ignition but car would not start 
When I keep fiddling the key it would then start up like normal.
I bought a new battery about 2 months and alternator is charging at 14 (the tech guy said that's normal).
Any one experience this problem before? |

kampoon, your extractor looks good.
I recommend you ask the muffler guy if the extractor should get Thermal wrap. |

QG, if you are getting trouble to start, fire the ignition about 7-10 times quickly...if it starts then your starter is going. happened to me already and can come about if water gets in the starter like from driving through flood. the good thing is it can be serviced.
welcome kampoon, glad to finally have a contact on that side of the world.
hopefully we can all benefit in the event hard to get parts are needed.
i also hope u can keep up wth our dialect and forum language 
btw post some pics or register your CS in your Garage
any ralliart parts over there??? |

In addition what what was suggested by idlemind you can also check to see if the car starts faster/better in Neutral vs Park if it does then unplug your inhibitor switch, spray with some contact cleaner, grease it and plug it back in.
Was getting that same problem, when i turn key to start all i getting is a click, i did the above and it hasnt given a problem since. After checking battery, alternator, starter of course......  |

u graduating from nonsense talking punk to sensible speaking punk
some good advise there
that happened to me with teh L200
drove thru a lot of water and then parked up and the engine got cold for some hours
1 - 2 weeks later all I was getting was *click * when i tried to start
removed teh starter and serviced, changed brushes - problem fixed
we linked it to the water, cuz when the starter was opened there was moisture
since then i have driven through water several times, but never allowed teh engine to get cold after  |
