EK4 (singapore) or ES8 (local) advice plz

Postby ronald_22t » June 15th, 2012, 4:06 pm

hey peeps not sure if this was discussed already so here i go:
I'm interested in purchasing a either an ES8 (local) or and EK4 SiR (Singapore)

The thing is tho, i have plans on upgrading to performance parts later on...e.g. suspension, engine etc etc.

1) I know the EK4 has endless options but as its a Singapore model i was told that some parts are different from the Japanese model

2) As for the ES8, what r my options for upgrading? was told the DC5 parts are interchangeable.

can someone plz advise me accordingly..will really appreciate it a lot..thx in advance peeps.

Is according 2 yuh budget buddy.
ES parts are more expensive.
The good thing with an ES is that it's a newer car.
As for paerst from Japanese EK4's & Singapore EK4's parts being different, I've never heard that 1 before.

I have a slightly damaged EK4 I may sell if yuh interested in building up something :)

EK4 ! The Singapore parts and Japanese parts are not different. The Taiwanese body parts are slightly off in measurements though.

EK4 very good car once you take proper care of it
i've owned 2 sir's so far and you can't go wrong with the amount of aftermarket parts available for it if you wanna modify
