Roof Lining Upholstry?

I know it can be done but i didnt thought of using BRIDE cloth for it tho. Neat idea.

Headlight + Signal Upgrade

Actually i like the Wira/Satria Limited Edition And Satria R3 headlights and signals. They are black housing both. But then again, they are sick expensive like RM8XX for a set of brand new headlights and signals from the sparepart counter. The Taiwanese versions are either ala Altezza or crystalish or fully black entirely. I dont dig flashy kinds, prefer to stay suttle.

After the long wait, i decided to get a 2nd grade version whereby its not STANLEY brand just a replacement brand for those unlucky owners. Its the same, no STANLEY stampings and the signals only has black shades towards the headlight and not entirely. Its made in Malaysia incase if you are asking. So far no leaks and they shine good at night.

Total cost brand new headlights and signals are RM2XX plus delivery.

I saved RM600 and for something that hits stone chips on the highway daily, this is definitely bang-for-the-buck.

ps. yeah, thats my Cusco Hood Lock in the pix.

Rollcage Pix, As Promised

Ive been driving with the rollcage for couple of months already. I plan to keep it permanently. My car feels better and stiffer during launching and taking corners. I hear less cabin noises/squeeks compared to before.

Anyway, here are the pix. Click it to enlarge. If you dun like rollcages, u can try do auto-foaming like what my buddy Andrew did on his car. Its like JUN Auto Mechanic foams but cheaper.

The story about my rollcage is in the previous posts. The brand is UNKLE from Shinya Yamauchi Rallye 6-Point which is similar to SAFETY21, which i think it is SAFETY21. Its black and it came with rollpads. Its a no-through-dash model.

The good thing about 6-Point than 7-point is you dont have to tint ya back to be spotted by the authorities as 7-Point ones comes with the crossbar, also you gotta remove your sun visors to install rollcage in your car.

Since i have the R3 Sticker, it sticks nicely on the head bar.

Links Updated

I have just updated the links section. Scrapped some links and added some good ones. Good to those that dont keep bookmarks.

Strap-On For Ladies .... And Men.

I've been surfing for days and prolly weeks checking out Takata harness and bucket seats online. I just have to put this pic up. It's KT-So on a Chargespeed SS bucket seat and Takata safety harness. Whatever it is, i just want those "tata" under the Takata, haha!

Latest price for Takata should be around RM1500.00. Too expensive for some FIA approved safety harness. Its a bloody JDM bling.

I'll think about it.

BILLION Are Just Brilliant

BILLION Super Thermo Checker thermostat sticker. It'll only look nice if you have an aluminium radiator. Good to know if you hit boiling point. NO!, you dont put in on your forehead when you have a fever. doh!.

How Big is Big?

The T04Z and T51R turbines side by side. They are meant for 6 cylinders or some overpowered monsters.

OMNIMAN All-Motor B16A 200whp DVD

With determination and alot of patience, i finally
managed to get a hold of this damn DVDs. I didnt
borrow it, instead i bought it brand new freshly baked
from the oven. Fucken-'el *relief*, dont mind the fouls
as ive been waiting for this day to come for a bloody
long time.

After what i have "heard" from other local comments,
i kept my views open and ordered the DVDs without having doubts.
Eventho there was another original copy nearby, but i wasnt
being offered to watch. Its okay to me, i understand that ppl
has their own reasons. Im not a begger anyways. I watched
the entire 6-hours DVDs and took note on all the tips and hints
that they were showing. I guessed what i "heard" is far-out
than what they have shown.

To be honest, i do not see any praying-mantis vs monkey
kong-foo secrets or some Bruce-Lee's Jeet Kune Do 3-inch
punch technique, but more on the ways of doing things right
for the first time and doing it step by step with technique.

The steps shown are actually for intermediate and advance
viewers, at least u must know how a piston looks like. For
beginners, it should be an enlightening show and may bore you
as the steps are bit long. Absorb what is good like a sponge.

The power made at the end of the day was 206.5whp. The parts
used were within the budget of a street modder. Eventho the
show wasnt a hollywood quality but they got the message right
where they want it to be. They wanted to show if anybody could
actually try and do it, try to do it the right way, try to work as a team
to achieve this mythical argument in the forums. Im no mechanic but
i can try.

I give double thumbs-up for these DVDs. I am sick and tired of reading
Helms and Haynes sometimes and for once i just wanna watch.
Honda-Tech is a good place and they should make DVDs out of it.

I think there are so many "small things" that ppl take for granted that
these DVDs are trying to explain. A tiny mod will eventually help other future
mods and reduce overhead for modders.

I respect for the effort they have accomplished. The figures are just
a bonus for them.

Kuala Lumpur International Motorshow 2006 (KLIMS06)

Went to KLIMS06 last weekend. It was jammed packed
with people plus the school holiday period and early of the
month weekend. It was like sardines in every damn hall.
Thanks to Bobo we got the tix in advance. Although i have
a non-sophisticated camera, i didnt bother to carry them
as i know it will take time to snap and have a good steady
hands when snapping especially when it comes to juicy ladies.

Again, it was a international motorshow, some people
didnt read the big print carefully as they thought its gonna be
some Hot Import Nights or a carbon copy of Tokyo
Auto Salon. Too much expectation these days that led
to dissapointments. I had my 2 hours fun. The cars
were alright, the ladies are fine and the food are expensive.

The arrangement of the booth needs alot of fix. PWTC is not
a good place to hold such function where you have to walk
across river to go to another hall. I think KL Convention Centre
would be a good place. If you like thin, slender, overmakeuped,
weightless model ladies, they were everywhere. Dont expect
tanned honey-caramel boobies and booties like Import Tuner
or DSport to be posing on the cars.

10 Tips for future event :
1) Try to go the first few days if possible. Working days
and within working hours. Take leave by all means.
2) Bring a minimum RM500.00 to buy original souvenirs.
Minimum i said. No ATM gyro can be found nearby.
3) Bring a videocam instead, zooming helps for you dirty
old-men, haha.
4) Have some meal before you go, everything is
double-triple at the event.
5) Be nice to the ladies and prolly u can get their number,
haha.
6) Wear shoes. Sandals and thongs are gonna hurt anything
more than 2 hours of standing and walking.
7) Wear casual and light or anything breathable.
8) Go in small packs of friend, too big is bad for over-excited
hormones.
9) Do not drive your modded car, prime time for car thieves
and jackers. Keep laptops at home for godsake.
10) Look and appreciate, if you are a keen buyer, ask them
to start the engine.
