Hand Brake Light On

If you notice your handbrake light is on and you already make sure your hand brake is released, then it might be your brake oil is low or your brake pad is time to change.

2T oil for Rotary Engine

This is not a joke if some one ask you to put 2T oil into your Rotary Engine oil tank! The objective is to lube the apex seal. So, just do it if you want your engine last longer.
Just a small cap of the 2T bottle will do for a full tank.

IPhone 16GB

I m just love the user experience! You should get one in your hand!

Why I choose Hotmail? User experience playing important role!

Font So small? How to make the front bigger? Yes, use 2 of your fingers!

it support ajax too, uh!

APEK Hill, Cheras

After FRIM, I took another challenge to APEK Hill, Cheras. I would say is Intermediate or advance Level, so do not try this if this is your first time for jungle trekking. The worth mention is the waterfall! I love it.


Rotary Engine cut off when you turn on air con?

If your car has proper tuned ECU, but engine still cut off when you turn on air con, perhaps your rotary engine's compression is weak, which you need to replace the apex seal. That’s pretty easy to notice when you try to push your car, the boost meter just won’t climb up.

Another possibility is your ECU is not proper tuned, just like my case.

Apex Seal

Do you notice the black circle? That's a slot for you to install apex seal

Wee's FD3s

He is the one who persuaded me to get Rotary Engine, without him I believe I still have the same mindset “Rotary Engine is weak engine to push”, in Malaysia that’s common to have such mindset because not many mechanics have knowledge to rebuilt or fix rotary engine.

Essential Meters for Rotary Engine

Well, is good to have Boost Meter and Water Temperature Meter for your rotary engine.

Boost Meter is for you to monitor pressure of the engine, when the car idling, make sure the vacuum reading (boost meter) is pointing at -0.6 to -0.8. If you really cherish your engine, please do not boost your engine more than 1 bar.

Next, Water Temperature Meter is for you to monitor your engine’s temperature. In Malaysia, 90-105 Celsius is normal if you driving on afternoon while 80-90 Celsius when you driving at night time. Please shut down your engine if the water temperature is higher than 105 Celsius or start to monitor your water meter when reach 100 Celsius. It will be nice to have a fan installed behind the intercooler and in front of radiator. I used to turn on the fan when the traffic is jam, you will surprise it will reduce 5 – 10 Celsius of water temperature meter depend on weather condition.

One of my friend in Penang told me his friend's Nissan Skyline do not install the AIR-Filter on his turbo (because he want to have fast response), after few months, he found out that intercooler not able to reduce the temperature of engine because all the dust went to into Intercooler.

Takumi's New Car!?

Well, I almost fall from chair when I m see this photo! Takumi from Initial-D finally want to leave Project D's team uh?

I got this photo from a chinese forum. I hope the owner do not mind, or else I will remove it.


Hello and Good Bye

Hello to my new personal computer and good bye to my almost 7 years old personal computer too..

Kepong road = WORST

Guys, you can drive your car to Kepong but please remove your adjustable suspension, or else you will jump inside the car! Damn bumpy when I m on my way back home! Worst! Worst! Worst! I have to drive slow, I have to brake constantly, super high bump! I would like to say Even chowkit road and selayang road are MUCH better than KEPONG!

Nah, no second time with RX-7 FD3S!
