Those who rode Hyundai Porter 2 , said the porter 2's have registered handling models: the low level of bank, good cornering. Suspensorial "minimalism" in the form of the front passenger and a simple rear beam on springs -Hyundai Porter 2 benefit, comfort such suspension provides ample. Seams, joints, asphalt patches Hyundai Porter 2 without forcing the transmission of vibrations to the salon.<br />

<br />
The Porter II's cab have been stretched by almost 10% from the 3rd generation, meaning more legroom, headroom and spaces; but it seems the overall dimensions are the same and its a good news for jeepney fabricators here in Bacolod that will astound them.. the mounting points are the same as that of the 2005, 2006 surplus porters; if the owner does not prefer to buy the original 2.5L CRDi, its just they'll have to modify the dashboard...<br />
<br />
So in Closing; we may find the new Porter 2 be plying the streets of Bacolod in the Not-so-distant years.. lets now try appreciating new technologies which seems impossible at first but if we try to embrace it.. it may be the answer to our local jeepney problems...<br />

Well as for 2012, foton has released a more updated version of the Tornado 3.5, technically known as the Ollin 3500 in China, it is considered a good replacement platform if you opt to upgrade your old canter with newer and cheap replacement, considering its a clone of the 3.5T elf, its performance and power ratings have been equalled to that of the elf 3.5, but if you find the Tornado 35 too cheap for you to judge between performance ratings with the elf, its up to you..<br />

The Tornado 35 features drum type brakes front and back which gives it a more reliable braking service in all road conditions, meaning less prone to problems encountered with disc type brakes, it seems foton have considered using the time tested technology of drum brakes because of some cons.. well steering the tornado 35 is a Mechanical Recirculating Ball type steering gear which can help ease out the problems of rack and pinion types, </div>

The Base price for a chassis cab tornado 3.5 is around P400.000 plus insurance and registration and a 2-5 year warranty on parts and service, as to an aluminum van model of P688K, considering installation of a passenger compartment is around P50K to P30K, take it as a gurantee roll.. it seems a good sacrifice to get more attention.. </div>

Still many bacolodnons prefer the crudely styled but ravish-running RJG platform, its still a big question mark among operators why does most passengers especially in the bata route prefer this kind of jeep model, is it design? performance? or just driver preference??<br />

there is a flood of new jeepneys among bacolod routes and there is an expected rise of new units by next year, among many new routes having a large burst of new franchises are banago, puntataytay, alijis and mansilingan routes, franchising and many other means of acquiring a transport franchise is still very cheap although processing is quite longer, aas of now still the dominating jeepeny platform by total and by far is the 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation Hyundai Porters which roughly comprise 60 to 70 percent of the total jeepney population in the city, still new units are still of these make and models<br />

recent prices of automotive diesel is around 39 to 38 pesos respectively depending on the oil company they fill up their tanks, once more the rising cost of parts and maintenance are also some of the big reasons out there that you must try to help out <br />
the recent fare matrix for the visayas especially here in bacolod include:<br />
(fare for regular passengers)<br />
5 kms - 7 pesos<br />
6 kms - 10.50 pesos<br />
7 kms - 12 pesos<br />
8 kms - 13.50 pesos<br />
9 kms - 15 pesos<br />
10 kms - 16.50 pesos<br />
<br />
remember students still have that 25% discount together with the lolas and lolos<br />
<br />
you schoolgirls must remember if your student and for those if you "feel" your still a student <br />
remember a 3-4km distance you should pay a minimum of 5 pesos and 4 km to 5 km distance you must pay a minimum of 6 pesos.<br />
<br />
for half fare you must pay a minimum of 4 pesos if your distance is around 1-2 kms. for the little ones (yagits as I affectionately call them) must pay a minimum of 3 pesos for this..<br />
<br />
well this fare may fluctuate time to time depending on the prices of diesel and petroleum products but remember the minimum fare for every jeep irregardless of their route and make and type is 7 pesos for regular passengers and 6 pesos for students and seniors.. hope it helps out comrades! have a good day!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03424532509894933516noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287072823685511066.post-72584308569329446152010-09-21T05:22:00.003+08:002010-09-21T05:22:00.138+08:00Nyala Tours releases the Silay Aircon Commuter jeepney<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Nyala tours and transport is one of Negros's prime car rental and services which today serves a large number of car rental and shuttle services from the Bacolod-Silay Airport and many locations in Bacolod and the negros island, just a week ago, the management of Nyala decided to upgraded the community shuttle fleet with a more capable jeepeney shuttle vehicle,<br />

Meet the Commuter Aircon Jeepeney also now known as the Silay Aircon Jeep, the Nyala Aircon Jeep is based on the JMC JMH FB cab locally by the trademark "JMC Compadre" it is built by Dreamco Motors Inc in Laguna, these were acquired with the help of PO's Marketing inc. auto sales which is the official dealer of JMC automobiles in bacolod.</div><div><br />
</div><div>when it comes to air conditioning, the JMH has same capability as that similar to other FB type trucks, all its features and amenities are similar to the commuter shuttle but has more comfortable seats and larger capacity. </div><div><br />
</div>“JMC COMPADRE” series of light trucks are imported in Knocked Down (KD) form by DREAMCO Automobile Company Inc. These are then assembled at its facility in Laguna Technopark, utilizing highly skilled Filipino technicians under strict ISO9001 quality system standards.<br />
<br />
Local assembly of the “JMC COMPADRE” series light trucks assures local customers of the same, high-quality workmanship as the popular Japanese light commercial vehicles being assembled side-by-side in the same plant.<br />
<br />
DREAMCO is a member of the Truck Manufacturer Association (TMA) and is registered with the Board of Investments (BOI) under the Motor Vehicle Development Program (MVDP). DREAMCO is a 100% Filipino-owned corporation, run by a professional group which has been in the automotive business for more than 50 years.<br />

</div>well sad to admit to you guys some operators, passengers, jeep owners and bacolod motorists and some bacolod residents are getting annoyed with the L300s and the Hyundai porters, although with its robustness and superiority on long haulage and capacity it cannot cope with some international emission standards especially EURO-II, which is now a standard here in the country, well to say some passengers are getting bored riding in the same Hyundai porters and some other makes.. local jeep assemblers still use the porter to fabricate new models but when it seems this Korean heartthrob seems to be the only commercial vehicle platform available for jeepneys, those fabricators should better take a look at a more modern CV design and platform from Japan which is kind of an underdog but is slowly gaining popularity among some people and motorists in the city,<br />

excellent suspension and ride, is achieved thru the front suspension lower arm structure Uses a torsion compression arm this feature enhances the Bongo's rough handling characteristics and helps achieving a good ride while still keeping the nose of subduction during braking. The rear suspension is tuned for depth and position the leaf spring damper characteristics, enabling a balance of comfortable ride and stable handling characteristics and is less sensitive to loading conditions.<br />

The Bongo platform especially the older models from 1998 to 2000 uses Mazda RF Diesel engines of 2.0 to 2.4L displacement while another one is euqipped with a more modern 2.5L CRDi Engine from Mitsubishi, Mitsubishi, Nissan and Mazda once offered 2.0 to 2.5L diesel engines, but as of 2009 they now only stick to a 1.8L gasoline engine (maybe due to regulations in japan) and Mitsubishi is offering 2 engine variants, A 2.5L CRDi diesel engine variant and a 1.8L gasoline engine variant<br />

Opinions on the Bongo platform<br />
<br />
some drivers see the bongo CV platform as a very acceptable new model of vehicle which can help ease out and modernize the transport system of the city, some few disadvantages they see is that the Bongo's cab design seems to let sunlight penetrate the cab easier and leading to a more humid space inside, but some drivers said additional tint on the upper windshield would help ease this, next is the engine, some bongos are now CRDi, meaning as for now and as long there is only a few CRDI specialized mechanics and technicians in bacolod, it will be another big problem to be tackled by the "madlang mekaniko",<br />
<br />
but for me positive traits matter most, in closing; well lets just hope importation of Bongo CV platforms from Mitsubishi, Nissan and Mazda to continue and start to increase and will help replace our aging Hyundai Porter designs, once more more modern Hyundai porter-II design are arriving, (similar to nyala commuter shuttle's cab design), and hope to freshen up and give some new looks to Bacolod City's Public transport, sector..</div></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03424532509894933516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287072823685511066.post-32641067103185351472010-09-07T04:31:00.002+08:002010-09-07T04:31:00.315+08:00Primer on Jeepney engines and platform power plants- Fuel Systems<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHv4fDDow-V6dTH7UMYbSB369rFMjJZWTg8iGTb0VVMc7a_MuxZxVz93bxr1DYcR50uCVsc7perHuIA6NQNdzqIizzkwQACfRmy7S-8PuDnUkaHLuw6nCv5NzoT1Em8ihIP1qq2LjjBu0/s1600/Picture1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br />

</tbody></table>The VE in the name of the Bosch pump used in the many other small diesel engines stands for "Verteiler", which is German for distributor or divider. The other common kind of injection pump is the inline pump. The difference between them is that the "Verteiler" VE pump has one fuel metering plunger, and a mechanism (the "Verteiler"/distributor) to send the fuel to the right cylider. The inline pump has one plunger for each cylinder.<br />

The VE has comparatively few moving parts, but what does move does so in a complex way. Most diesel engine manufacturers in Japan and Korea, uses this design and is produced by numerous auto accessory companies such as Denso, Zexel, and Korea Diesel and Dowoon which works and looks the same as the Bosch original .<br />

the heart of each East asian diesel engine design relies on the VE pump, the VE Pump comparatively becomes either powerful or economical thru its Distributor head or commonly known as rotor head..<br />

</tbody></table>Basis on selecting the kind of rotor head to be installed in an injection pump in bacolod jeeps depends upon the preference of the owner of the vehicle by installing a rotor head above or below the size of the original rotor head has the following effects:<br />
<br />
Installing a smaller rotor head- Installing a smaller rotor head will decrease the power output of the engine but at the same time maximizes the engine's fuel economy thereby benefiting on more efficient fuel consumption meaning jeeps with engines having pumps with small rotor heads are fuel efficient although it will decrease power ratings, it will let the operator and the owner save on fuel.<br />
<br />
Installing a bigger rotor heads- Installing a bigger rotor head will increase power output of the engine by 50 to 90 percent (in my experience) but the cost of installing larger rotor heads, the fuel consumption of the jeep will also increase 2 or 3 folds, some owners are advised by mechanics to think deeply before replacing their actual rotor head size with more larger ones, what's more rotor head sizes are dependent on the engine displacement, for example you cannot install an 11mm rotor head on 1.5 to 2.0 L engines as per my experience, if you will not follow this you may either end up with higher fuel consumption as expected, a damaged injection pump or burned nozzles or even worst a damaged engine, 1.5 to 2.0L engines will accept 8, 9 and 10mm rotor heads as the maximum, while 10, 11 and 12mm rotor heads are good for 2.4 to 3.0L engines,<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">In Bacolod most jeepneys using the 4F Isuzu engines use a maximum size of rotor heads in their pumps of 10mm mostly the 10mm rotor head is sufficient enough to give Isuzu 4F engines a power boost of 50 to 70% of the nominal power output.. Most of the fastest short-run jeeps using Isuzu 4F series of engines such as Gustillo, Uytiepo and Touchmove use 10mm heads and larger Hyundai engines usually installs 11mm rotor heads..</td></tr>
</tbody></table>Larger engines such as the Toyota L, Hyundai D4, and Mitsubishi 4D series of engines start with 9mm rotor heads and usually a size change may range from 10mm to 11mm rotor heads respectively, the ones that can use 12mm rotor heads are large Isuzu 4F series and Toyota 3L engines, <br />
<br />
one thing for sure, jeeps here in Bacolod frequently change rotor head sizes due to the fluctuation of prices in petroleum products especially diesel, some owners are forced to change rotor head sizes regularly in order to save in the costs of fuel for their units..<br />

<a name='more'></a>This time attack trial is a continuation of the last post on the weekends time attack with a particular jeepney running about in bacolod city, well, I had no choice but to select the king of the bacolod roads the RJG; Again well this time lets get the time equivalent that you can get when riding an RJG Jeepney during 1 to 3 in the afternoon..<br />

What makes this jeeps unique is their undoubtedly revolutionary designs of the front grills. as you notice this jeepneys don't use the traditional manila-style designs which was once popular in this part of the philippines, unlike iloilo jeeps cagayan jeeps still stick to the old timer willys jeep platform but uses a more revamped and unique platform. the grills and headlights are made mostly from modern cars such as isuzu dmax, alterras, hyundai starexes and toyota IMV vehicles such as the innova.<br />

most likely this kind of APV can be a good replacement to some of bacolod's aging 1st generation ford fierras and 1st generation toyota tamaraws, APV's sleek new design, and bold looks and comfortable driver amenities coupled with a good suspension characteristics and if possible good people attention and from the car loan sector, it won't be long when we see a new look and a bright future on small passenger jeeps around bacolod city.<br />

Elements which are the main assets of iloilo jeeps are:<br />
<br />
OEM Looks - most iloilo jeeps have front hoods and grills designed from current models of SUV's, Pickups and cars on the market, this includes also non-popular and older models of japanese manufacturers but most iloilo jeeps are based from japanese manufacturers.<br />
<br />
<br />
Low Chassis Height - the low chassis height is one of the big advantages of the iloilo jeepneys, attributing to this is low chassis height is easy passenger access and more faster loading time.<br />
<br />
<br />
Stretched chassis - stretched chassis means more capacity and more capacity means more passengers and more income for the operators, its a matter of keen understanding of commerce.<br />
<br />
<br />
Overpowering - overpowering is another element of iloilo jeepneys are known, engines installed are either balanced or maxed out to the chassis design but with a tolerance that the jeep does not break apart from the overpower of the engines.<div><br />
</div><div>Minimalist Concept - unlike manila and similar jeepney versions, iloilo jeeps tend to use less chrome and stainless steel as to compared to manila jeeps<br />

factory cars - almost all iloilo designs use japanese car, pickup, suv components to build it up, due to the very creative minds of panay illongos, year after year new designs come out, using surplus and spare components.<br />
<br />
large SUV rims - most iloilo jeeps use factory oem and or custom stainless steel rims with sleek designs, most use 16Rx12, and even slick SUV tires if the owner or builder prefers, contributing to the jeep's modern innovative look.<br />

Japanese made cars being made by fabricators include:<br />

</div><div>Lap 2: Lopues mandalagn to ramos diversified (bangga ramos) to 18th strret lacson.</div><div>official lap time: 7:13.04 mins</div><div>due to kick in of a numerous passengers from lopues mandalagn, we took a whole bunch from a newly dropped off inter-city jeep mainly a silay bacolod, which made the time to be wasted, and at the same time the schoolgirls were dropped at 18th street lacson, so far among the laps these was the longest time on the record.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Lap 3: 18th Street lacson to San Sebastian cathedral</div><div>official lap time: 02:17.31 mins</div><div>because there was no passengers to pick up during these course of the lap, the driver went to overdrive!!</div><div><br />

</span></span></div>the original value was 13:20.02 mins, but because of the slight deviation I had when a started the stopwatch at the inexact place, I added additional 1 minute on the actual value, still it is under the 30 minute time attack value which means the RJG jeeps qualifies for the weekend 7AM time in the light traffic time attack category, but well; remember some things about this:<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>- the jeep had a few passengers</div><div>- it was fast approaching its route, </div><div>- traffic was experienced lightly at a certain lap point</div><div><br />
</div><div> bases of a fast jeepeney includes the ff:</div><div>- driver's experience and skills</div><div>- jeepney's dimension, spec and powerplant</div><div>- road and traffic conditions</div><div>- passenger amount</div><div>- assessed situation of the drive hour (termed as "libut" by drivers) </div><div><br />

</div>dubbed the "community shuttle" by nyala tours inc, a very successful vehicle rental service provider here in negros and panay, they decided to start a jeepney route with a revolutionary idea of using air conditioned utility vehicles as a medium of transport. this modified hyundai porters are originally FB type models and have been modified with more powerful air conditioning systems provided by Sanden, and as of now is the Only air conditioned jeepneys plying the roads of bacolod and negros. as of now the units are attracting a large number of passengers from the route. if your a regular passenger who has enough to ride this units, go settle for it, but if your budget-conscious commuter better yet ride the ordinary jeeps, I recommend the shuttle for those who go around silay and bacolod at often occasions, its a good unit to ride.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">well, to make sure you don't get the "pasmo", after arriving in your destination as soon as you get off the community shuttle, try to rest for a while of just a minute or two, before transferring to ordinary jeeps to help your body temperature and the environment equalize to the more ordinary conditions ;) </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Issues about the community shuttle: </div><br />
because its air conditioned the community shuttle is now attracting passengers from mid classes especially those who work in offices, students (in the middle class) and even worthwhile travelers... with a fare difference of only 1 to 2 pesos from the regular P13 offered by the other silay jeeps. many see this as a way to get to your destination clean and comfortable. many regular silay jeepney operators have made an issue that these units are colorums and are not eligible to operate, but silay mayor "Oti" Montellibano proved to them that Nyala's new shuttles are elegible to operate and they have operating franchises. so to settle everyone on this issue, Nyala Tours was only to authorized to deploy only 10 Porter H100 units, in order not to stir-up more issues.<br />

The shuttles work and operate like your ordinary inter-city jeepney, it has conductor who closes and opens the rear door of the passenger compartment and takes charge of the fares. however they have the tendency to be occupied and or leased by interested individuals if the price is right. and there will be times these community shuttles will wait for passengers in the silay airport. somewhat this "new wave jeepneys " operate like the jeepneys in Banago Port which pick passengers from the port and drops them in downtown and vice-versa. remeber if there is a really big arrival at the silay airport, expect these units will not be around the highway as they will wait for passengers in the airport...<br />

<br />
most drivers tend to do a final pass to get the last bit of passengers around ten, and by 11am, some drivers eat their brunch/lunch or just stay put and sleep in their jeeps, while others by around 12:30 start another run in search of passengers.<br />
<br />
mostly by after 2pm, passengers start increase and this is mostly the time where most drivers tend to recover the needed money to finish their boundaries,<br />

well to our foreign friends; especially those who want to take a trip around bacolod, remember that during 7-9 in the morning and 3-7 in the evening is the rush hour here in Bacolod and Negros Roads.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03424532509894933516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287072823685511066.post-10995287560881009132010-01-30T12:55:00.000+08:002010-01-30T12:55:50.800+08:00Manila Jeepneys in a verge of disappearance; what's in Manila options<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjatLhdr_N0DaB96-wP2yWPhqxfAjJMvgaH57_1I8XxP3QKABrEOWEn2ICwWAOisNhcK-kyfjK8SHbjnGeabjLWd134aH_k8cb-DEn0fDzdhaD32sdwGHm5du0_KZ9VJ2NEXE6hra4-k7Q/s400/Mitsubishi_Beep_2w.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjatLhdr_N0DaB96-wP2yWPhqxfAjJMvgaH57_1I8XxP3QKABrEOWEn2ICwWAOisNhcK-kyfjK8SHbjnGeabjLWd134aH_k8cb-DEn0fDzdhaD32sdwGHm5du0_KZ9VJ2NEXE6hra4-k7Q/s400/Mitsubishi_Beep_2w.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, arial, helvetica, serif; font-size: small;">A jeepney kit available with the latest EURO-2 compliant engine such as the Isuzu 4JB1 is another interesting option that operators may consider, comprising of only a chassis, an engine and transmission, axles and wheels and basic components for hand brakes and exhaust brakes can be a more considerable option, priced at least halfway between brand new and fabricated units, it can give owners flexibility to choose the right design to suite his considered options in route, body design and many more, (FMC said it will offer jeepney chassis kits for those who don't want to buy fully- built units) </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, arial, helvetica, serif; font-size: small;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">built by either FMC or Sarao, this jeepneys are assembled and manufactured from brand new components like its predecessors, using brand-new OEM supplied components from 1.5 T trucks such as the latest Isuzu NHR series of commercial vehicles and or Mitsubishi Canters, most units will be 50-50 machine-hand built. but expect to comply with the strict regulations to be implemented by the government authorities.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">for those operators who can afford to buy and operate a large number of units, the first phase may be scrapping of the old units and changing it with newer ones like other options above, or shift to shuttle based vehicles like the one introduced by Mitsubishi Motors and Almazora auto, the canter Bus-jeep; based on the Gurau Microbus, this unit is based on a Canter 1T chassis and equipped with either a brand new 4D34 or 4M50 EURO-2 engines. priced at an estimated P1.6M (with sanden air condtioning unit) although they said it can be available thru financing options with partner banks and finance institutions.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">At the Bacolod Scene:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So far this dillema of the Manila jeeps somehow did not affect that much here in Bacolod City, last time a jeepney driver told me, inspection here in bacolod is not as strict as that in Manila, just make sure your units have working accessories and seat belts, and passes the emission. if time comes Bacolod may be affected by this regulations, our local assemblers must find a way our proud Porter and L300 and many other designs have a contingency measure, for our operators to become more compliant with this new regulations of LTO.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b>Recommended hardware for jeepneys!</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">well guys I have my own opinion regarding in helping our operators get to pass strict regulations of the LTO, with the advent of more advanced engines coming from the surplus market we can get any EURO-2 compliant diesel engines (EURO-2 is an international emission standard for 1.5T - 3.5T Capacity Commercial Vehicles which states CO2 levels must be at 1.0PPM(parts per million) , NOx at 0.7PPM and Diesel Paricle level is at 0.08 PPM) today hence our lack of faith and understanding on the latest technology is the one making us resent on this materials, here are some engine we may worth installing or upgrading in our jeeps</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
