hi guys i desperately need help from you guys. I will be going to shanghai via kuala lumpur and i was thingking of getting some goodies for my swift from there . And since i read somewhere that india and china are the only countries which still use g series engines . i was wondering if it would be feasible to get performance headers and stuff from there ??????????? wat do you guys think ? also i was thinking of getting a tacho with a shift light (please suggest some brads and models which are not expensive ). and white underbody neons , new steering ( should it be same diammeter or smaller ) , performance conical filter with a non metallic pipe . is it feasible and most importantly will it be cheaper there ??????? anyone knows any places over there to get the stuff ??????? any suggestions or feadback will be very appreciated . thanks

Just curious - how do you plan to carry bulky stuff like this? in your luggage? or are you going to ship it separately?

China - all mod are cosmetic and hardly anything. What ever you are talking about is available either here or Malaysia

umm headers would probably be shipped or maybe in a seperate box or something . but would it be any good getting exhaust headers from there ???

i agree with hellspawn...
u have many options in bombay for headers and the like - there are some folks in your city who make some real quality stuff.
just hunt around the Modifications & Accessories section and you'll find them!

cosmetic stuff u can defintely get from KL/shanghai. also, u can try picking up some decent ICE items (don't go overboard though... no use tempting the customs guys!)
