To some degree I'd agree and then again disagree.
I think the major reasons for the adjustments are to protect the engine and the environment.
Like Many new cars won't let you rev beyond 4/5000 RPM for "environment" sake, even if you floor the accelerator.
Yes, some models/trims share parts and like you said some adjustments for maybe 10 extra KM.
But for significant difference between trims, things are different over and under the skin. A corolla S sports a different instrument cluster. A corolla xrs is a complete different beast and it's instrument cluster is different too same as its top speed.
Then again, aerodynamics, the faster you go the more wind resistance. That's why as you approach those extremely high speeds the increment is slower. Given enough room, without the limiter the car will do its stated top speed

In all my grammar, my point is u will burst your engine if u try to hit the needled at the end of the speedometer if your car has not been enhanced.
Look for horsepower and d speed limit of your car, don't look at the max speed printed on the speedometer. Trying to hit the speed limit sef is dangerous, as our 15year old engines aren't at optimal state to reach that speed.

Me i be speed junkie, But na highway things, i no dey do fast and furious shit for tight corner

If i can’t outrun person i’d let you go, cos some people sef sabi match dia vehicle. but some mumu go dey block you.

Speeding is dangerous.

This one is so annoying, like what's your problem.

However, also annoying for me is when you de speed, you come tailgate me horning and flashing your lights when there's a free lane, oga you met me here o and there are 3 other lanes. Me sef I'll use my hazard lights to tell you geraway

What's the implication of not using filter but AC na coldstone?

Not using the cabin Air filter is harzadous to your health, you can imagine breathing in all those particles that get sticked to the air filter without the air filter in place and on the mechanical side, dirt and debris will stuck around the internal AC component..

Yeah but its actually a good way to start because you learn a lot. Reason why I was never worried during my rental days with a lot of changing of partners.

There's lot to learn in the trade.

Oh well... That's why I said"out of the factory".
Then again, many recent vehicles add a small electric motor to increase horses. The motor allows it more power while taking the demand off the combustion engine, also reduces emissions.

The other time I said it but you took offence. I'll say it again unequivocally, y'all paint drivers as saints and the partner as the devil when in most cases the reverse is the case.
Unless the partner gives you a lemon, all the owner of the car wants is for you to use his car properly and pay his rent as agreed, but we all know that many drivers have a problem with that.

P.s, this has nothing to do with the brother's untold story as it is untold.

Point taken, I will try to find good used anyway I can for some parts.

Like if the part was taken directly of a used or salvaged vehicle.

It's just hard to trust these market sellers, vs say, buying directly from a DENSO distributor.

These market guys could even try selling you the faulty parts that someone has thrown away from their car as tokunbo.

Thanks for the advice.



You are right

Wrong.

It locks the gear in 3. Used for overtaking or highway driving. I push any car to 140 on gear 3. Manual or auto.

It's not for rookies

Many a times you people misunderstood or quote me out of context. I do not take offence on people's opinions unless your opinion is an attack on me simply because I speak the truth base on personal experience which most of you don't have any idea of.

If you think I'm wrong take us back to memory lane let's re-evaluate and possibly clear things up.

No one wants h/h own business mis-managed but what pissed me off is having the mentality that every employee is a thief

But should in case of next time too, please try to avoid such too. Some owners are just like that. Am not saying you are at fault, but just to be on a safe side and to avoid looking for car now and then.

First of all, Ota is Lagos as far as I'm concerned. Second, any man that cannot understand the need for a father to be fully present for the naming ceremony of his child, is an absolute fucktard_.
