Drag!!!

I'm quite impressed to see this video where a 500+ hp stage 1 modified R35 can easily overwhelming the monstrous 700+ hp Switzer P800-equipped R35. Quarter mile wise, P800 is useless due to its turbo lag as you can see the white GT-R's launching in a very quick manner. Hmmm, I think I prefer the stage 1 GT-R in terms of its speed but P800 is totally a vengeance at the top end... Either way, I love this video!!!

I LOVE SCUDERIA!!!

Besides the new 599, my salutation always goes to Ferrari F430 Scuderia. Check out the video below of how fast the speedometer moves from certain km/h until it reached nearly 330km/h. You'll be thinking of lightweight chasis, 400++ hp and 6 speed race mode!! If there is a 7th speed, the speedo would go for 350km/h, I bet!

Radical Setup




Bi-Winged-Banshee!!!

Read about this car in some car magazines and I am amazed with the front spoiler set up on the end of its bonnet too that actually led me to wonder of how good this car is. Well, this World Racing Scion tC is damn good dude. This is one of the fastest front wheel drive (FWD) cars around (or maybe the fastest?) breaking new lap records at some major racing circuits. With its crazy 700hp engine, it sure is one serious car that may shred the Time Attack at its best!

Upgraded Pump

255LPH High Pressure Fuel Pump (forced induction) is ideal for superchargers, turbo chargers, and racing parts in a vehicle.

When replacing your fuel pump, it is crucial to meet or exceed the manufacturer's minimum fuel requirements in order to get your engine the right amount of fuel it needs. This is one of the major differences between Walbro and non-brand/imported fuel pumps. In most cases it does not hurt to install a 255LPH high pressure fuel pump into a non-performance vehicle because all unused fuel is automatically sent back to the gas tank by the fuel pressure regulator via the fuel return line.


This parcel is nothing special really but my eagerness to receive it that counts :P


A fuel pump inside. Upgraded fuel pump that can handle the fueling up too 600hp


Walbro is among the big manufacturers that currently creates quality fuel pumps and often being used by modified cars to stabilize their fueling systems

Rebuilt engine has been finished. Well, not really I say. A few more add ons

Smokin' Grill


I don't know if this is an act of sabotage or maybe it was true the cigar was there (which I didn't really have the idea of how it was there in the first place)... Quite ticklish to my eyes, hehe. Hope the owner of this car saw it though, as I forgot to mention about the mystery cigarette to him yesterday... =P

Ice Not So Icy


I've got this icy product tried on my car's bonnet today. It's from Turtle Wax and this is one of its ICE collections which to me its upgraded and more improved version from their previous products. The liquid polish is a simple thing to apply on your car. Just put a few drops on the sponge provided, rub it gently on your car; leave it for like 3-5 minutes and then finished it off with the microfiber towel which is also given free in the box :)


You wouldn't see the real effect on the picture above, but just look how clear the clouds reflected from the bonnet of the car, despite the bonnet is already swirled and scratched. Well, to achieve a better result, all you need is the instant wax, instant shine and of course, detailer. Look for your trusted products. Mine will always be Turtle Wax ;D

Black Disc


Wilwood might not be as famous as Brembo or AP Racing Disc Brake Kits but its popularity amongst car enthusiasts is not that new either. I've found a local Mini Cooper S using this brand with its 4 Pot Caliper application. Quite expensive this one and its much bigger than its OEM disc brake. I love the black character of it..thumbs up!

More Upgraded Mods

Yes, this is the car that also has converted his car's side mount intercooler to a more beautiful yet aggressive front mount set up. You've seen the teaser right? Enjoy the pics though a bit blurry..I should use an SLR in the first place anyway!!

HDI Boost Meter. The analogue is for kpa reading whilst the digital
records boost in psi. Very nice, probably the one and only here in Brunei

HDI Electronic Boost Controller. Dunno how the set up goes but the owner likes it. Again,
this gadget would the one and only here installed in Brunei

Basically an Apex'i RSM and that lovely looking HKS Turbo Timer Type 0 is simply awesome ;p

The engine looks like the driver wanna drag with every car that runs below 345hp!

Grounding cables, HKS SQV Black Edition Blow Off Valve, Sard Fuel Regulator
and the custom made front mount intercooler piping

This is definitely not a CA18 engine. It's a blacktop SR20DET, the latest
and improved version of redtop SR20 edition

HKS air cleaner and the air funnel. That pipe kit is like everywhere isn't it?!

Front mount intercooler, image taken from the engine bay

Repaint it with the original color or any bright appealing colors, off with
those mudguards, this car should look fine eventhough no kits being installed

Inside The Rex...The STi Beast!!

I guess if you scroll below, you'll probably see a pic of a black Subaru with a big front mount intercooler, right? So here are the rest of the pics I managed to take few days ago :)

Nice engine bay, a bit dull but you'll never expect the power inside it

Let me see, HKS Twin Power, HKS Super Reloaded Filter, HKS EVC 5 Electronic Boost Controller, HKS SQV Blow Off Valve, Tanabe Strut Bar and GReddy hard pipe...expensive gooooodiesssss!!!

Before Sard RJ Regulator, the owner had used Tomei. GReddy silicone for the
intercooler piping

Ings +1 kit and nice looking bronze SSR Type C wheels. D2 front disc brake kit but
currently has been replaced with its original Brembo kit. The D2 was sold already

Another Extra Boost

Another friend of mine is currently installing a front mount intercooler replacing his dying side mount intercooler. With this bigger size intercooler, I'm sure more boost will be extracted from this car. The piping is mostly 2.5" in size and what is nice about it, the owner himself assists to where the piping should go. Meaning, it is a custom made piping kit with less bending to prevent from turbo lag that often occurs if you're about to do a FMIC application. More pics to come soon, and of course...two more interesting gadgets to be installed ;D

More Torque

Hello peeps, had been so busy with my day..not that I don't wanna blog though. Anyway got the time to take the pic of my friend's car. Nothing much, he's so excited he got his car a front mounted intercooler already, hehe. The function of a front mount intercooler (FMIC) is that although you'll be receiving a lag response at low RPM but it sure gives you a thumb up when your RPM reaches 4000 above. FMIC is meant for a top end response and of course, plenty of boost too. With his above 300hp STi, there will be a different as when he was using his OEM STi top mount intercooler, the car showed its power by 3500 RPM but didn't sure if the boost was in a pretty good shape or not after that. Where else when he is using the current GReddy FMIC, the car response at a delayed 3800 RPM but after that...yes, the beast does awake :) That's a good sign for those who like performance car and like to tweak their cars a bit higher in torque and horsepower than their usual ones. Love to take the pics of the engine bay later on...stay tune :)


HKS goodies with Ecutek reflashed ECU...hmmm, an interesting car!!

Filtercharger Unleashed

Got my car installed with K&N Filtercharger last 27/01/2010. I wasn't sure if we could install it ourselves due to lack of hydraulic rack for us to loose the cover underneath the engine for the air duct installation. So I went to Jun Fatt Jerudong and let Mr Angah decided if that was necessary enough to be installed. Well he said no. Um, okay..will install it someday though. It took me about an hour while waiting the air filter to be fitted nicely as been instructed on the diagrams provided. The outcome is quite promising; I can feel the torque increasing in certain RPM while the sound does change a bit due to the filter itself produces certain angry sound. That's typical for any aftermarket filter anyway. But when I read a site regarding the installation of this intake in my type of car, it loses horsepower, not until with an upgrade of a front mount intercooler and the filter is relocated to the front of the bumper. All in all, a dyno should be done someday but it's nice to have an intake system that is made for my car. At least it is meant to be a serious horspower tweak :)


Checking the engine carefully before doing the installation


Seemed simple but never judge it by theory coz pratically speaking, it was slightly not easy


Done. K&N Filtercharger on Colt Plus Turbo! Would like to upgrade the intake system with stainless steel someday :)
