Seksyen 18 Drift Day 2.

Got a call from Hashim that the track is wet since morning. Me being a late bloomer (Coz I woke up around 12pm usually), prep myself and went to the track. Also pushed Zamil to tag along. Initially just wanna hangout and let Zamil have more practice since the track is wet.

Arrived and Hashim offered us some tires for us to finished. The tires from the two set of rims; the RS Watanabe and the Longchamp. Since Zamil's arch is smaller, I told him to use the Watanabe while me; with the Longchamp.

Stole it from Zamil's Facebook. Naisuuuuuu farking naisuuuuu. Damn Banana! Instantly increase the JDMness of Zamil's Corolla.

 Rolla + Longchamp = Awesumzness damn it. My overfender is full with it.

Some more photos. Seriously I'll sell my Advan for these!

Seksyen 18 Drift Day 1.

Woke up early on Saturday to have a fix on Rolla. Seems like the push start is not working (Eventually it was only a loose socket LOL). Of course, went all the way to Klang to the same shop that did the engine work. Upon arrival, I was greeted with Hashim's Celica.

Check out the rear wheels! Farkin bloody offset Meshies!

Saturday Activities.

Yeah, my first day of the 1 week semester break. Fill up the day pretty well. All in all, Rolla is back. Healthy and fit. The starter problem? The lulz thing was, it was only a loose socket! So, fix this and that. Asked the foreman that did the engine job to have a look, and the car is done.

Unfortunately, I am too sleepy now. Had a rib-eye steak for my dinner and I am one fat lazy mafaka now.. Feels like wanna sleep on the couch. Anyway, I promise to do a longer post tomorrow. Hehe. Anyway, some photos and videos:

Its been awhile since I last use the DSLR. Overbright photo due to overexposure. Was at the tire shop. But took like forever to queue for the alignment service, so next time will do.

And while at the workshop. Asked Man to check the TPS sensor too coz  I adjusted it.

And in the evening? Overdose with sideways action.

Faulty Gauge - Solved!

Although I promised to myself that on January I will not touch Rolla, this one is an exception coz this is one of the important gauge to tell the driver if the fuel is about to ran out. So, irritated with the not working gauge, I broke my promise and bought some stuffs to solve this matter.

First, the faulty float. Found out that Din's float also in faulty condition. And then tried to fit in my old float from my KE tank, also in faulty condition. The best way is to buy a new float, and got this after ordering it.

This is a brand new float for Corolla KE70. I am using an AE86 fuel tank, and thank you Toyota for making same parts for both car. Almost all AE86 stuffs can be fitted into KE70. How lovely is that. So this float fit nicely into the AE86 tank. And since I am using socket from KE70 float, this is just plug and play to the car.

And hell yeah, I am glad now coz the gauge is working fine. Yeah, my old gauge behind is not working anymore.

Goodbye 2010.

Yeah, I am back in college. Currently trying hard to fix a used motorbike, a Modenas Kriss. LOL. Rolla is resting safely inside my house. Want to focus on my study so I leave Rolla at home. Some fixing needed in order to bring Rolla back to campus.

Anyway, my last TT before I went back to JB. Were hanging out with some friends and a special guest from Kuantan, Ariff Firdaus. Yeah, we all miss him.

Some of the photos shot by Ariff. Some Corollas.

Got a chance to sit in a FIA-Rally spec Impreza STi. Full cage endorsed yaww.

Does Rolla looks great? No. The black fender ruins it. I guess I'll live with it for awhile. No more rubbing now which is great coz no more tire shredding. And another thing, Rolla gonna have a face lift. I'm gonna swap the front face to a GL face lift.

Bored with the DX face. Current trend for Rolla is a must of the quad round headlight. Gonna go for a square face instead. Something like this..
