Roll-ess coRolla

Picked up a used anti-roll bar for about 100 bucks, came with the lower arms, and since my rear lower arm bushes were quite worn anyway, i took that chance to kill 2 birds with 1 gun stone

I think ill give it a nice coat of paint soon.

Oops my modified fuel tank shown. Its a AE92 Trueno tank.

Next step, my door panels. Hmmmm....

Formula D

Vid i took in Formula D during the past weekend. Event was all good, only judging as expected was unfair. Oh well, its called GOODYEAR Formula D for a reason, Toyo/Federal/Achillies/Kumho dont really stand a chance unless luck is on their side.

Anyhow give it up for underdog Mervyn Nakamura of Team Federal who is also sponsored by CTech

Interior inspirations

Was hunting for some door panels online for the AE80/82, needed some inspirations to custom my own doors. So here are the results, stolen from various websites.

Clean n simple single tone coloured, spotting a 6.5" component set, probably fiber made pods

A lil more tricky, 2 toned double 6" speaker pods

Another clean looking one, but bright colours are out of my options, going full black/red for the interior, with white LEDs lighting up the dark.

This looked suitable, althought i think the rear side of the panels can be utilised, adding in bottle holders or compartments for storage

So the final verdict? Soon to come out, as I've finally finished my 6 months of internship, now on super duper long break before i begin my degree. Meaning i got heckuva long time to restore my rolla.

Random shots before inspection

Thought I'd post up a couple of shots before the dogs call it "salah" and doesnt issue me with a roadtax and grant.

The legendary AE8X Levin style headlamps, almighty rectangular-ness

Where the action happens..

Peekaboo!
Hope those inspection bastards love coffee.

Kelawang outing

Took a day trip to Seremban via Semenyih, Sungai Tekala & Kuala Kelawang route during Hari Raya Haji holiday. First timer on the curvy roads, at 8am it was great fun!

Starting point, just after Semenyih Dam

Checkpoint, giving the cars a short breather

Outside Hutan Lipur Jeram Toi waterfalls
Nice stretch of road back. Had lots of fun chasing my mate's Waja.

Will be heading there again soon, love'd the soothing drive and winding roads...

2 hours of hard labour
Resulting a very happy owner!
