i'd leave the car prb's to be fixed by the mechanics, and with the computers, leave it with the techies like suba and others.

I'm a hardcore do-it-yourselfer (and a cheapskate) so I try to do as much as I can...

But there was no way I was gonna try to fix my differential: didn't have the tools or the time.

Of course, now I don't have the money. :doh: :banghead:

lol my car is pretty easy to work on, but i'm short on cash and tools, if I had the cash I would of did alot more stuff for sure.

Come on.. I'd kiss somesones ass for a job now.

Hey I think Rally Japan is coming up soon, I'm so sorry I missed the first race of it, and really missed Subaru winning it :shamefulcry:

I will for sure make sure the PTVR is set up!

Umm... LoL~ A little extra from me.

My friend's Toyota Sprinter Trueno ride. His ride is hot, even though its a clunker. Especially after the Initial D movie released in HK with Jay Chou as the lead actor. Everytime he drives down Orchard, he'd definitely get eyeballed.

AE86 informal meetup. See another Levin in the back...

i'm doing a track day in my own car this saturday. i'll post some photos. most people will turn up in imprezzas and evo lancers. good fun though! :victory:

Sounds good. The only track closest to Singapore would probably be M'sia's Sempang Circuit when the public pay to use it on free schedule days.

If not, I gues the local ricer boys would probably prowl the roads around town... :P

I thought it was called Sepang :sweat:

Washed and waxed my car to death today...

Pulled each of the wheels off one at a time to check my brake pads and suspension bushings. :sweat:

I'm wiped. :bleh:

Don't worry about it. You'll probably find a typo in every single post I make. I'm infamous for that kind of stuff. :hehe:
