So funny how different truck owners are so proud of their rigs.. :D :D Anyone can say that their car is better than others, and that's normal.. Wait for a few years, when your car is old.. Then talk about how durable it is.. As of now, I bet your car is quite new, so obviously you won't encounter major problems although some manufacturers have silent recalls on some of their units.. But that's normal, nothing's perfect, some brand new cars are even lemons, regardless of make and model.. So how can one say that his/her car is the best.. Just enjoy your truck.. On or off road..

Yes, when the truck is old, dispose it or otherwise you need PANADOL  if you don't know how to fix the problems or outbudget.

hello owners of mitsu strada

does anyone here have installed a unichip from speedlab to 3.2 M/T engine of strada? if there is one, may i ask how many hp and torqu is added?

is it safe?, will it not destroy the original computer?.

there are two unichip to choose frm, 1 is the standard unichip universal piggback and the other is the plug and play. which between the two is the best to buy.

thnaks.. ;D

The plug ang play is the more expensive one although it's the most convenient.. If your after performance upgrade, there's another type of device which has almost a similar function as the unichip.. Its called Vtech Red box.. Basically it alters the fuel maps by tapping it to the common rail system.. You can install it less than 5 mins..  More info here..

http://en.vtechtuning.eu/

You can ask Jeff by texting or calling at this number, he imports it..  09158947711..

Nothing wrong in asking naman.. :) Tell him Brian Law referred it..

I have it installed on my 3.0L 4x4 Everest.. And it's great.. Has 8 adjustable settings, 1 being the most fuel saving and 8 being the most powerful, setting 9 is used to gain access via laptop or any windows based phone..

Also, if your planning to go with performance upgrade, may I suggest changing your exhaust system, from the downpipe all the way to the tips.. Preferrably 3" pipes and if you want, you can have it in dual exhaust setting.. Also, change your air filter to K&N drop in air filter, never use CAI as it actually makes you lose power but only in the case of diesels.. ;)

correct is triggerman in terms of performance if you compare it to other pickups strada is at the bottom,
strada lacks handling and power if you compare it to other pickups tama ba sir beeboy?

top seller talaga strada mura kasi, because its really loaded - 3.2 gls sports. as for the 2.5 gls, glx and gl hindi na good buy for me coz walang abs

lahat ng pick up maganda except for the hilux because of the safety issue - bagsak daw sa moose test (sayang) :'(
safety is very important

actually the strada is one of the most powerful in its class,the problem is that the power delivery is sedate compared to the navara and ranger.The handling is mixed bag because the steering system is onroad bias that is why it is the best onroad handling pick-up in the RP market but quite poor off it.The performance of the vehicle depends on the needs of its owner,example what if you seldomly need to haul cargos while you need to transport your family very frequently?of course the strada is the best in this conditions but if you do a lot of heavy hauling and traverse poor roads to the factory very often then the strada will have it hard time compared to its rivals especially to the hilux and ranger/bt50.

well if you need to transport your family frequently? get a SUV instead.
strada is the best on road not because of its handling but bec of its suspension (rides like a car).....on the tarmac the trekker is far better in terms of handling and power compared even to the 3.2 gls sports. what the heck i still want one!

well the example1 is meant for those who own only 1car and they use it primarily as a family car/personal transport and occasionally requires them to carry objects taller and bulkier than SUV's and minivans could possibly carry so it has to be a pickup, a comfortable one.The Ranger is fast yes it really is but onroad handling?The Strada beats it due to the fact I've metioned above.

still not convinced?read Beeboy's comparo on truckwars featuring the ranger,hilux and strada

its a tie between ranger and hilux since they were true to the roots hardcore pickups(hauling/family) while the strada loss due to the fact that it is a niche(lifestyle/family)so not the definitive pickup truck if one looks for a beast of burden

i'm not saying that the strada is a poor pick up :o but it's true that it's more of a pick-up truck wanna be :-[
but if you compare it's way down the bottom :-X
the ranger has the best handling on road of all the pick up trucks. that's according to experts review, an example is the c magazine, they compare head to head 5 pick up trucks...
strada has the most comfortable ride doesn't mean it has better handling :P

definitive pick up truck shootout from c magazine
hilux
what's hot - ultrareliable, durable, spacious, imposing looks
what's not - pricey, basic features

dmax
what's hot -  balanced in all aspects, decent pricing, superb audio system
what's not - lacks power

strada
what's hot -  really really loaded and superb pricing for the 3.2 gls sports only
what's not - lack's handling and power, small bed

navarra
what's hot - best in class power, kitted out, 6 speeds
what's not - feels simple

ranger
what's hot - powerful, great handling, excellent bed space
what's not - feels basic, really harsh ride

the reason why strada is topping the sale bec it's the most affordable (glx model)
so basically strada is beauty without the brains :-[ ;D

Best selling where? There are no hard facts in the philippines on individual models.
In the UK the Strada is the best seller followed by the Navara
