SRT Jeep Leather Key Fob

Woot!  Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT first accessory!  Well it just a puny leather key fob that has carbon fibre looks on the outer layer.  Got this for less then $20 bucks including shipping from eBay.  Quality is top notch and fits like a glove!

Mercedes Benz 350SL

I was at Jati Transport last week with my friend.  He has to drop his car off for part replacement.  This beauty caught my eye when I was strolling in the showroom.   This is the latest SL from Mercedes-Benz and this here is the SL350(lowest engine spec).  Those of you who has deeper pocket can go for the SL500 or SL600.  For those who has even deeper pocket can go for the AMG SL63!  This particular model shown here cost $206,000 showroom price!  For this price the car does come loaded with features and options.   I was kinda disappointed with the interior space though.

Re-Fresh ER34 - NPC 10" Organic Clutch Installed!

Another update on ER34 Re-Fresh!  Just sent my car yesterday to Camden new workshop located behind Gadong Shell Station to have the NPC Clutch replaced.  Remember the NPC clutch I bought back in May?  Yeap, yesterday I finally had the chance to send the car to the workshop thanks to Wong Workshop who took his sweet time to finishe my ER34.

The installation cost me $180 bucks and I also gave the ER34 a full general engine services.  After that I sent the car to air-con specialist to have the air-con pump checked.  Hopefully will get the car back by Tuesday next week so I can try the test the NPC Organic clutch!

The price $180 consists of 3 mechanic dropping down the gearbox and replacing the organic clutch

Boxster S Wheels Balancing and Alignment at AutoPro Tyre

My Porsche Boxster S is well over 4 years old and over 30,000km and never had its wheels align and balance from the first day it came out of the showroom.   Today I popped by at AutoPro Tyre at Gadong for proper alignment and wheels balancing.  It took around 30mins to have it checked and cost me around $50.00.  The dude who aligned my car is actually a trained, approved technician that also handle wheels alignment for Lamborghini and Ferrari.  You can rest assure your car is in good hand.

Although this shop belong to a friend of mine, it is actually the first time I had my car wheel checked by them.  I am actually quite happy with their qualities and services.  No doubt I will be going back there with my Nissan Skyline ER34!

Re-Fresh ER34 - Exterior Paint Completed!!!!

Finally my ER34 is back!!!!  After a long respray paint job,  it is finally back home in her own garage.  I am very happy with the fresh new paint job.  Everything is done right this time compare to the last respray back in 2003.  Only problem was to wait for freaking 5 months!!!!  No way I am going back to that workshop anymore.  I am truly disappointed of the sweet time they take to finish my car.  Enjoy these pictures first as I will do some photoshoot of my own very soon.  Now that the car is back, project RE-FRESH is nearing to completion!  Will update again very soon!

  

Home sweet home to the old and new family members!!!
