I cannot sit idle and do nothing. Just can’t be done. So, write some more…
This month alone, I have bought a lot of stuff. Maybe because it’s year’s end and a lot of wishes remain unfulfilled. And I keep wondering where most of my pay went… hahaha
Part I : For the car -
My car, the ever enterprising blue Savvy recently developed some major issues. One of which is oh so very costly to fix. The ignition coil… A lot of other people have had this problem as well it seems. So, for future owners, Caveat Emptor.
Anyway. Problem was initially minor, but got worse. Quite embarassing to offer to bring people out for dinner and at then end the car couldn’t climb a hill to go back. Hahaha. So, I bought a couple of stuff and McGyver’ed a fix for it. Seems to work really well. And since I was at an accessories shop, I thought, why the hell not eh?
Got a RedLine high flow panel air filter. Woven fiber over steel mesh. Good stuff. Really good. Wanted to get this a long time back but it was never in stock. Now revs are smoother and car has nice acceleration. Niceeeee…
** it sorta looks like this but longer with blue mesh
Then an Elevo D1 Drift short throw competition gear knob.
That was to replace the OEM one that came with the car which was making a racket when driving. Had to muffle it with tissue paper. The new one is solid alloy with leather handwrap. Feels really solid quite unlike the old one. Shifting has never been so fun. lol
And finally some lights.
A set of AF Projektz LED driving lights to replace my old ones which at this time has, I dunno, 2? 3? LEDs left on each side. New ones look better. Clearer and shinier. Heh.
To top it all off, as replacement to a 1 side blown headlight, a pair of DLAA 4500k Xenon super white bulbs. Still thinking on this one. The last time I used super whites, kena saman once. RM300… dem. But that was 7500k ones. The new ones are a bit more law enforcement friendly. – I hope…
** these are halogen ones. tarak pix for xenon
To be continued… :P
