on Friday, September 17, 2010
Has been disappear from here for such a long long time. Feel like abandon this place. Writing mood is like bubble, disappear easily. Okay, just to update you guys about the recent me. As usual, busy with work. But staying back late no people notice. LOL! I'm like ghost man! Okay, cut this crap. Useless complain. :) "stop complain and just work."

Has been busy repairing my car recently. 2004 Waja, 200K plus km, problems will come already lo.. Found out from forums, 6 years done 200K is consider, crazy?! LOL! I have been driving like "crazy" during my Uni time? Quite true. From house to Uni, projects, yam cha, outingss... My Waja has been to every corner in Malaysia, from north, south and east coast. Luckily no bridge to Sarawak, if not easily 300K. LOL!

Fixing car's problem is never an easy task and never a cheap task. Started all this repairing + upgrading (soon coming) about 2 months ago. Up to this date, i've spend RM1000+. Well, consider expensive? IDK. A lot of ppl selling parts on9 and the price are quite cheap compared to going to shops. I've a thinking, DIY. But it's quite risky. But, i will try! :) in the future la...

I'm sharing the price of the items that i've fixed so far:

1) engine mouthing RM450 (all total 4 units, and after that i found out ppl selling about RM200+ in the forums, but not including pasang la..)
2) banana leaf (mud guard??) RM50
3) Pioneer front speaker RM230 (3 channel? 3 pin? can't rmb what the pomen said)
4) service throttle & tune RM90
5) ENEOS ATF oil 5L RM160 (they charged me RM32/L, then i found out ppl on9 selling RM20/L. zzzz)
6) service throttle & tune RM80 (y 2 times? cause i went to service, complain about steering vibrate, then they suspect my throttle body not clean and i wasn't there, they pun do la.. dunno true or not. but memang it solved the problem la.. )
7) injection air filter RM25 (i saw ppl selling for RM16. =_=)
8) wiper vacuum hose RM28 (can't find the price on9)

Future work:
1) repaint (estimate RM 2.2K, got cheaper please suggest)
2) body kit (estimate all total with repaint, RM3K)
3) sound insulation (plan to DIY! heee.. haven't check out the price yet)
4) auto foam (RM1K)
5) change head lamp (add CCFL. looks cool)
6) change seat cover (PU can already, budget RM400)
7) Tint (budget RM500 whole car)
8) to be added in the list. :)

Guys, got any lobang please let me know. Thankiu!
