Yo yo... I found out that Swinburne has many "car freak" over here, but they are hidden. Show yourself and talk about cars here~ Usually I will go to bako every friday night, Stadium Sarawak for track race ( 2pm-4:00pm ), then Sejingkat for 400 drag race (4:15pm - police come).

Here's some picture taken during track-race in Stadium.


Nissan Silvia and Skyline R35

R35 cornering

Go-Cart vs R35 lol...

Mazda Rx-7 chasing from behind

^^

Subaru Imprezza

Sexy Fairlady Z350 ova there.


I only know that one of the swinburne car, who drives D-sport Perodua Viva , go for trackrace as well.

Every car-freak out there, show yourself and post some nice pic here! ^^

Yes yes, many of my friends install woofer and audio system to their car but my brother wont let me do so, because he asked me to spend more money to the performance and the outlook. lol...

Most of my friends got their audio system liao, some put 2 woofer together, upgraded his sound system for RM2k+ already. But then ah, in swinburne, better dont put audio logo such as soundstream le... later your mirror pecah T_T

During the construction of new buildings few years ago, Swinburne facing this kind of problem le. Everyday got mirror pecah, because of stealing sound system. So horrible that time!

Hrm. I love cars, but more towards exotic or sport cars.

If I have the chance, I'll like to drop a 4g92 Mivec engine into my car, but retaining stock outlook outside. Guess you know what car I drive already. ^_^ Twisted Evil

to be honest Most of the keng keng's car, outlook very stock one.

If you see a car, looks so sporty, but actually i think la... cannot run one.

4g92 mivec engine? i heard that mivec costs almost as expensive as vtec o... RM6000 and above, include the swapping, wiring, it's around RM8000+. my brother is doing it but he is more into honda engines.

Depends. I've seen some around 4-5k ish ones but raced engines. Problem with raced engines, there might be problems with it already, although minor. But I haven't been in touch with this car stuff for quite awhile already since I barely can afford the engine, let alone the swap and rewiring and adjustments.

well, dont so fast le... you can do minor upgrade first, like change the piping system, exhaust, header, air filter, and also adjust the fuel rate. this all can be done easily. the full piping system costs around RM800, at "sin yong yang" near 3rd miles there. ^^

Nah. I'll just wait till I start working, then drop in a new engine, 4 to 2 piping with twin exhaust, powerflow, new set of sports suspensions, stabilizers, and a new paintjob. Probably a new seat since my current seat's is very worned.

I've been playing around the my caburator's adjustment since the car was handed over to me. Even some minor mods on the distributor to gain a little bit of power.

Nope. Don't race my car since no proper engine overhaul has been done since the car was bought by my parents. I've self change the top header gasket myself once and took me 1 week to put it back cause I didn't have a torque wrench. No more fooling with the engine unless I have proper tools.

Carb easy. All you need is a screwdriver. XD But wrong tuning = fuel guzzler.

well, to tune that, it's not hard though, if you make your fuel chun chun to your engine requirement, i think it save fuel. if you over-tune, you will hear piston hitting voice from your engine when you reach high RPM. that is the most basic tuning for car. hehe...

Bako somehow quite dangerous, but track-race is really fun. can see luxury cars over there... ^^

Carbs is easy. But fuel saving, not so much compared to EFI engines. I've overtuned it a few times, just drank my wallet like crazy, but no problems from the engine.
