ER34 in Cardomain

Just a quick note, before I start blogging for my ER34, the only place I can show my ER34 was on Cardomain. Cardomain is a great place to show your ride to the whole world. They have all the category for any models and any makes. To date ER34 had been registered in Cardomain for almost 3 years. As of today, my ER34 is ranked no.31 of 1626 in the Nissan Skyline Category. That category included all models from R32 to R34 (including GTRs). The highest ranked that my ER34 ever achieved was No.1 around early 2008 and stayed in that spot for 10days. I should had "Print Screen" and saved it for memorial. Oh well, I didn't and I should had spanked myself silly. Anyway, please visit my ER34 Cardomain if you have the free time! Lots of pictures to view in there!

These one here is 3.0 Straight six and has a five speed auto tranny. The car is dead stock only some minor accessories like M- Pedals and M clear indicators all round.

My ER34 Checking on New Entrance

Our family new house is near its completion, and recently they just laid a chunk of new cement road on the front entrance. Last Sunday, I had decided to take ER34 for clearance testing. Here are the pictures.

Arriving at front entrance....

....going up the main entrance road....

....you can see how close the side skirt is to the ground....

....I would say there is about 1 or 2 inches of clearances....

....arriving safely on site....


....one of two garages for ER34 siblings!

Product Review - Soft 99 LightOne

Every motorists knows that our equatorial weather are freaking hot, it is bad for our cars. Especially the headlamps, nowadays manufacturer had the headlamp molded from plastic instead of the traditional glass headlamp. Partly because of the production costs. One big disadvantage of plastic headlamp is that without proper care it will turn yellowish from the outer layer of the headlamp. And you and me know it is very hard to remove that stubborn stain. Well, now you don't have to worry no more. I purchased this product called Soft 99 LightOne, which was introduced by a good friend of mine. It removed all those stubborn yellowish stain on the headlamps with ease. Read further

Here is the front headlamp of my brother 2003 BMW Z4. Nope, those are not overnight rain stains, those are actual stubborn stains which had been their for quite sometimes.


.... u can see the stains around the indicator section too....

...introducing SOFT99 Light One, costing only BND15.00....

....comes with two solutions and cottons for removing the stains

Tada!!! Here are the results, I am very impress as it removed almost 95% of the stubborn stains.(well the other 5%, lets just say my bro didn't take good care of this car)

....highly recommended for all car motorists and car purist!


....of course, my little ER34 get both headlamps treated too!

....it removed 100% of the stubborn stains on ER34! Looking like brand new...hahaha

My Second Rides

Introducing my second ride, Lexus IS300. I bought it early 2007 and had been my daily ride from work to home. Nowadays, I only managed to drive the ER34 only 2-3 times a week. Big reason is I do not want to be caught by the man in blue. The color chosen on the Lexus is Artic White Metallic(I think). The car is dead stock apart from the aftermarket HID. I was planning for a full kit and 19", but again thanks to the man in blue I decided not to touch this car so I have no trouble travelling around Brunei.

Changing Standard Interior Bulbs to LED(Blue)

Here are some close-up pictures of my interior lighting. I had all the standard bulbs replaced with Blue LEDs. In total there were 8 LEDs that replaced the old bulbs.

3 LEDs on the gauge pod and 5 LEDs on the Instrumental Clusters

*note - these pictures were taken before the Cigarette lighters LED replacement

My Pioneer 2-Din CD player (FH-P6050UB), purposely chose this player to match the Blue LED interior lightings

My ER34 Driver Side Xenon went hay wire!!! Pt.2

The following day, after discovering my driver's side HID had went busted. I immediately drove to my favorite car accessories store Seng Hoe Huat Autosmart for immediate replacement. I was a bit reluctant to change the whole HID system as it required further cutting and modification of wiring loom. Luckily after speaking to Ah Ping, one of the experience electrician, he said that there is no need to replace the whole system including the ballast. He recommended Philips HID D2R 6000k Flash white replacement bulbs. Thank goodness SHH Autosmart had one last set left. It is a bit pricey compared to the aftermarket version but then again it is Made In Germany. Check it out~

If you never been to SHH Autosmart at Serusop, I highly recommend you to check it out as it is filled with all the accessories that a boyracer would want in a three storeys building

My car in V.I.P room :P

This time the HID really went busted instead of growing red

The recommeded HID Philip D2R 6000k Flash White

New HID fitted on passenger side headlamp

Now both headlamp had been replaced with new HID


- I have to thanks the Boss of SHH Autosmart for the special price on HID and Ah Ping for his expertise on fitting the HID on my Skyline -

My ER34 Driver Side Xenon went hay wire!!! Pt.1

Tonight I just found out the driver's side of my ER34 Xenon had turn reddish. If you look at the pictures below you can see the differences between a busted Xenon and normal working Xenon. I do recall from the driver's manual that when an Xenon or HID turned pinkish or reddish it usually mean the gas or some crap are not functional anymore. So I guess it is time for me to go to my favorite car accessory store to check out on the aftermarket Xenon or HID.

Looks kinda cool with that redish or pinkish light

..but I hate it!!!
