This is me, now and then. Part 1.

Was checking out my photo collection, and kinda miss the moment coz most of em' really were a GOOD memory. Especially during the 'hot' drift months! I met a lot of new friends, and learn new stuffs. And how did I start taking interest in photography? Actually, earlier I bought the camera for fun. Its the cheapest type of SLR, Nikon D40 with all OEM stuffs. Then first time meeting Mr. Jaguh and we went to Bukit Jalil for drift show. And the story begin!

This is my first time driving an old car. Was going to Bukit Jalil. And this is when I said in my heart "Wtf did Jaguh bought? A rusty car!?"

Inside Wanbra's RWD Proton Satria. Man, I miss this event!

My first time being a photographer. Panning? What's that?! Hahaha.

Jaguh also was kind enough to give me the chance to shot his car. My first car photoshoot.

Then, I got hired by Maxxis Drift Team as their photographer. This is where the fun begin! I got paid to shoot pictures, met a lot of different photographers, and learned more on panning, making friends with the drifters, riding with them, and learned few stuffs bout cars.

I was lucky enough to get a ride with Along of Team Toyo in a 1jz Bimmer! Thanks to Jaguh for the 'Auto' mode shots :P .

Maxxis 5-series Bimmer with 1jz.

Can you see the grin in my face? Hahaha.

And going on, my second photoshoot. Not official coz I just snap this pics without Along's permission. But it came out that Along love the pictures, so I just put it on the net. I'd say this is the best pictures I ever shot!

Sweet sexy looking AE70 that belongs to Along.

This is my personal favourite.


To be continue...

Drool Time!

(p/s: Cut n Paste thread. So sorry. Exam week :P Please click on the pic if you want to see the pics)

Geez, one day I wanna shoot some photos like this, and this one is dedicated to Mr. Jaguh. I know he loves his car soo much, and the fact that his KE70 is with me this week. Hehehe.

Here's some medicine :P

Hey dude, someone using your chrome lips too!

Credit to Speed Hunters. Hmmm, lets see some action of Jaguh's KEtam next year at UiTM Shah Alam perhaps? Perhaps 808 will join too? Only time will tell!

Looking at this pics makes me all hype again to reconsider what I have in my mind for 808. Restore and drift project will be continue!

Hmmmm..

Sometimes I do feel like selling the car when problems occur again and again. Again, this is because of short funds, and I dont have time to fix the car's problems as Im in college yo, bla bla bla..

So some updates again before class starts tomorrow:

Longer studs. Will be putting spacers soon.

Remove rear seat to see the floor. So far so good. No rust as previous owner had already fix the floor.

Fender finally had been rolled. Hmm, not symmetrical though. Left and right are different. So need to fix it back after had been slammed.

Fucked up area during rolling. Previous owner took a shortcut during bodywork. Sprayed the damaged area to sooth my eyes or else I will WANT to fix it during this exam week.


Whats more? Yesterday brought it to my college before the car fucked up again in the same night. So need to waste more of my times to send it back home and pass to Jaguh. So today Jaguh took the car to see what is wrong this time.

He suspected the alternator is ready to be changed as the engine sound's just like a car running with one removed spark plug. Talking bout a boxer sound. Hehehe. Maybe need to replace the cable plug and so on that related.

Plus lately my engine temp is very irregular. Maybe the radiator cap is the problem source. Plus a 32 years old radiator fan that already soft. Hmmm, need the fan housing too to cool down the temp as Jaguh's KEtam temp is now steady after he changed back his belt fan + housing from an electric fan.

So how to fix? What the hell. I trade with Jaguh. Hahaha, I mean I took his car for this week. 808 will be left to rot at his house until I got more $$$$ to replace the fucked up parts. Huargh..

Old car = problems
Study = problems

Old car + study = MORE problems. Dammmmnnn...

Castrol Edge Sport photo contest results!

Guess what? Jaguh won it! First prize of the first week! Damn, who thought the pics that I snap finally worth something :)

Im happy for him, as I got myself 1/3 of the prize. Kekeke.

So today we went to Hartamas, forgot what was the complex name.

Then we arrived at the place, some of the prizes.

The lucky bugger, my chief mechanic (lol), Mr. Jaguh.

The lucky person who won the Grand Prize of RM10k for car mods and 6 bottles of Castrol Edge, 3 Castrol shirts, 3 WRC car models. Damn~

The proud owner with the car.
One more shots:

So, what did he won? 2 bottles of minyak hitam, 1unit of WRC car model, and a t-shirt.

So we went to Manhatta Fish Market to celebrate it. Yummy Seafood Platter. Damn its delicious!



What did Jaguh put for the contest? The theme was 'Extreme Power', so does this look very powerful? Hahaha. Nevertheless, its my photo :P

Jeng Jeng Jeng..

Lol. Its nothing.. Just a little update while my car is inside the workshop. Why? Changing the short stud to a longer stud, Toyota's stud, 1.5mm thread? What the hell is that? Hahaha. Was listening to Jaguh when he said that, so just type it here then. Hehehe. No pics at the moment.

Just a little update,

Jaguh found it! Rubber for my door so there will be no moist in the driver side. Guess how old is this stuff? 30years! Still with the original package.

Fitting time.

And Ayip, Jeembo's crew changing my studs. Rolling fender will be done tomorrow, so I just leave the car there.

Emm, muscle enough?

Emm, finally; my last day at home. Just arrived at my hostel. Sigh. Kinda miss my Muzda already. Hehehe. Geram coz a few minor stuff didnt manage to settle yet.

Met with Josh last night to pick up my rims. Bought the rims from Jeyaraj. Very patient and good attitude seller. And cleaned it up in the same night. So this morning, go to nearby tyre shop to fit in the new rim. Looks OK, but as usual, more problems encountered~



So here's some pics on Stanley's request!
(p/s: Will be getting a used 808 speedometer soon. Me and Jaguh also cant stand to watch the RXZ speedo..Hahaha)

Front:

Rear:


The problems? Here it is!

Stud toooooo short!! Need to go to Jeembo's this weekend to change to a longer stud. Problems only occur for rear rims.


And of coz, with offset and wide rim, fender will be eating the tyres. Damn~ As expected, so will refer to Jeembo also to roll the fender.
