Well, even the earlier ones had 16".

@Pradeep, please clarify.

Hi,

Sorry for delay in response. yes that should have been read as 16" not 19".

My suspenstions are really good, yet make some noise when there is no enough load in car.Iit flews in air)

i have put Tata TL suspenstion for rear ans sumos for front. spent abt 8k on new suspention and bought TL4x4 power steering kit.

I got aluminium raditor for cheap abt 3k. togeather have spent abt 1lk on car to upgrade it to current technology.

i have setup a rear night vison cam to 9" TV, so that u no need to see back, during nights/rainee days.

unfortunatly my one is pretty old car without4x4 and turbo, can any one suggest me how can i upgrade old engine to new one or powerful sutible engine.

Also i am in a plan to prepare a new dashboard with right and left viwing LCDs and modifiying the front bannet looks like Ford 650 (not exactly) and may be right side sliding door.

Also knownissue in seirra is A/c cooling flow, thats why i have made a sunroof, manual one...now one of my mechanic suggested me to use the Pipe ac wind splitters so that from down the seats ot on both the sides of roof you can setup these pipes to supply enough cooling to rear. i had an friend in chennai setup additional intercool ac system really very effective, bu costed him abt 12k expensive.

yeah i know some readers can think, why to upgrade a old car but buy a new car, thanks for suggestion, however i dont want to loose the comfortblity and enjoy that i got in sierra.

here is some pics of my car. some are old snaps, when i bought it and the ones with Turbo lable on door are latest.(but car is not turbo version)

can u guys share me your carz pics, if you have..so that i can grab some ideas in upgrading my one.

@Anjan, probably the rotors (brake discs) are warped - that is if the vehicle has disc brakes. Otherwise it could simply be a normal operation - rapid stopping from 100kmph is pretty hard on the brake components, and the resulting deceleration is bound to be choppy. In any case have the brake components, wheels (alignment included) & steering system checked.




S = k.I^2, where S is the amount of stupidity a species possesses, I is the intelligence the species has and k is the universal constant of stupidity.
