Pajero FM or CK

Hi, looking to purchase a 4x4 Pajero. Im looking into FM or CK. Any thoughts on this? Pros and cons? Gas or diesel? Will be using it mainly in the city with weekend light offroading (camp sites only). You insights are highly appreciated. Thank you.

Bakit mas mababa Market Value ng Lancer compared to Corollas?

Hi! Looking for my next practical 90s car. More on utility ang habol ko and affordability.

Mas gusto ko sana ang corolla pang daily dito sa province. Pero interested ako sa Lancer.

Sakit ng ulo ba maghanap ng piyesa? Di ba reliable?

edit: by utility, I mean hakot ng tao and light materials na gamit namin sa church. Also, long drives every now and then mga 3x a year.

need suggestion for fitment

Hi all, so I drive a Toyota Rush, and I currently have it on LNT lowering springs, hindi nya kasi nakkuha yung low na gusto ko, it currently has 3.5 finger gap on front and rear. Should I just get another set of stock springs and ipamodify or what?

Why do my turn signals suddenly blink faster after small mods?

Hi everyone, beginner project car owner here so sorry if this is a dumb question.

I recently started fixing small things on my old Civic. Nothing big yet because am still learning slowly. I Changed my headlights, cleaned wiring, replaced some cracked housings and tried to make the car look a little fresher.
After that I noticed my indicators started blinking very fast on the left side only. Right side normal. At first I thought bulb already dying, but all lights actually work fine.

I checked online and saw people talking about resistance, relays and load issues but honestly I got confused fast. I don’t really understand electrical stuff yet.

One thing I changed was switching to clear signal housings I ordered online. I bought them cheap because budget build lang. Found them through Alibaba supplier someone shared in a Facebook group. Fitment actually okay, plastic quality decent too, but I’m wondering now if the bulbs or wiring inside are different from stock?
Is fast blinking always a bad sign or just normal when changing lights? Do I need a different relay or resistor thing? I’m scared to mess with wiring because baka masira ko lalo.

Also curious how you guys test electrical problems without randomly replacing parts.

Really appreciate any advice. Still learning and trying not to break my car while learning 😂
Thank you in advance to anyone who replies.

Built an iOS app that reads OBD-II and translates DTCs into plain language with on-device AI insights

Hello po! I’ve made this iOS app called RevDash. I’ve purchased a bluetooth OBD scanner last year para ma-read yung diagnostic codes ng sasakyan ko pero yung complimentary app, parang kulang lahat — OA sa ads, masyadong techie, o kailangan mag-subscribe.

App is fully built with SwiftUI so for iOS lang muna siya for now. Will release an android version soon!

Why RevDash?
Every trip auto-logged the moment ka mag-start ng engine — distance, fuel, duration, route. Wala kang gagawin. Mag-drive ka lang.
AI insights about your actual driving (on-device, no cloud)
Check engine light on? RevDash reads and explains the diagnostic codes in plain language — hindi lang “P0420” makikita mo, kundi kung ano talaga ibig sabihin nun at ano dapat gawin.
Find my car feature
Live Activities + widgets para sa Lock Screen / Home Screen

Need lang ng ELM327 Bluetooth adapter that is compatible for iOS (~₱150-1,500 sa Shopee).

Tested na rin sa motorcycle OBD, need lang ng correct pin adapter. Varies per model.

Feedback is very welcome! Thank you 🙏

Finally bought my dream tito car. 97 Mazda 323

My family used to have a fleet of Gen1 323 taxi's and I was disappointed when my Dad switched to Toyota (big bodies) when he decided to upgrade the fleet. I really liked the second generation 323 when it came out. So after 30+ years, I bought one as a project car. The color I wanted with the color wheels I wanted when I was dreaming of the car. I have a laundry list of things to fix but it'll be worth it. Plan is to fix her up in two years and give her to my son when he turns 21.

Yaris gauge pod project

3D printed Gauge pod mockup enclosure for a Lufi XS OBD display. Angle and position looks good, pictures taken at my eye level. Now I can finalize the files before 3d printing it with better material. It can also accommodate two 52mm round gauges on each side.

Also made a Racepak iq3 enclosure for yaris fitment as well. A third version is on the way as well with aggressive tilt for cars with low bucket seats
