A True Story of Trusting a new Friend

Simple word of wisdom having friend is important. However if money is involved; there is reason to be caution. Trust with caution especially if there is any link to $$ of you may lose a friend quite easily thru misunderstanding or miscommunication. :P.

Project SR4 Update 8April2008





Driving near 70kmh without windscreen is NOT fun especially you start to see rain clouds forming :P. Finally I manage to get my ride to install the windscreens, carpet, seat....

I took the opportunity to add SIKA sound damping to the roof, now the cabin noise noticely is much lower compared to before. (Good stuff and comparable to the relatively more expensive Dynamat). Next update will be on requied accesories.

Project SR4 Update 4April2008




Due to unforseen circumstances, the car is not ready for collection yet as the worker who is supposed to assemble the car took early leave due to emergency. So i have to postpone the plan today and cancel the leave. It is ok for me cuz there is an issue at work which i know i needed to be there, so off to work for me today :).

Project SR4 Update 1April08









The engine bay has been painted, i would say quite neat as they did not remove the engine but able to paint most metal of the areas properly. Top coat Glasurit has been applied check out the shine :) NOTE: This is the effect BEFORE polish. I will update after polish effect too :).
Note: I can see my self in the bumper reflection. Checkout the rain water flow area (between windshield and engine), it is fully painted, this is Quality workmanship.

Project SR4 Update 29Mar2008










Today went the paint shop again, needless to say the picture tells u my car is now on painting process in New One Auto Painting. The color is Liquid Orange :) Probally only my SR4 is this color in Ipoh (it is quite rare for me to see this color).
I also did some hunting for me steering wheel as the one on my car is no good (the plastic has detached from the metal so feeling is loose), lucky for me i found one in the chop shop Fu Lian at last minute as i was giving up (I have check may places in Menglembu). I like the original steering la.

This is for Koh: This is what u call a MONSTER :). Most of the steel plates has been coverted to aluminium and the Glass windshield is now Arclic or Perspex. Full custome areodynamic body kit with carbon fiber hood and GT wing.
