Z got Some power up =)


LookeyLookey , the shiney shiney Underdrive pulley kit for the Z , was lazy to do the install hence sent it to the workshop since i have to put the denso iridium plugs in , the plenum spacers , and get an oil change and radiator flush.

Initial driving impression:

Throttle feel much more responsive. Surge of rpm climb is noticebly faster . Could probably shift the powerband of the car but with so many parts going in at one go I didn't know which one was contributing to this new found response , torque and hp.

That's why it's better to modify things one at a time but oh well i'm lazy hence i just plonk in everything.


Total performance? Still am waiting for the ECU to recalibrate the fuel maps and ignition maps for the new parts. A good 7 days there will be feedback on this product again.

My 1st property

I always hear a lot of people would say how they cannot afford to start buying their first property. No matter how they would niche their salary they would still think it is not enough. One useful advise I've ever gotten is that no matter how much you have you could still afford something in a different area.

Although the money paid for this unit can very well buy me a 3 storey landed property but the convenience and security is taking an upper hand advantage with condominium here. They allocated card slots that enables u to only stop at your own floor and not anyone else which is good as my mom will come in to stay once in a while since I'm in Dubai.

The place is located in Bandar Utama , Bkt Utama to be specific and nicely situated on the 16th floor. The pictures doesn't do justice but at night from the balcony you have a perfect view of the KL city scape with direct look at the KLCC and KL tower.

It's rather bare right now and would like to decorate it Balinese style and make a hang out place at the balcony. So me and my boys can just hang out in my place the next time rather than to think of a place to go to in KL.

It's a 2200sq/ft unit with 4 bedrooms and all this sum up to almost 7 digit package.

Here are some pictures of it as of 2 weeks ago. As of now it's undergoing some surgery to make it more of a chill out space.









And for those who likes golf * you know who you are* , there is a 9 hole golf course right downstairs =)

The Suxxors of DXB

Well am bored and just want to write about some of the stuff I have lying around in my room.


Here are the 2 1/10 drifter i play with when I don't drive the Z


One is a tamiya TA05-IFS with the nsx shell fully hopped up with brushless setup
This is ye ol faithful HPI spring 2 drift setup

When I went home I picked up a few accesories to juice up the Z. Found this from SSracing in Old Klang road. Nismo FTW !!

Here we have a Greddy radiator coolant panel and some CNC machined lightweight pulleys


Before I left to KL , i joined a go-kart challenge organized by a colleague and got a price for the fastest lap of the day in Dubai autodrome circuit.


Yup this is yours truly hehehehe.


This is how i look like when i go drive the Z? lol
