AER 666... Bus' Plate Number - Singapore

The bus I was travelling on, broke down at Senai toll the night before Christmas Eve. Thankfuly, it was only a minor problem which was resolved swiftly. :)

I couldn't help but notice that Singaporeans are, in general, more fashionable compared to Malaysians. The fact that I still wear bermudas and t-shirt with sandals or flip flops when I go to a buffet at One Utama with my family is the most obvious prove of this. I guess Malaysians, including myself have a lot to learn from our neighbours...

Silvertop - Blacktop

I was hit with an unforseen event which has left me no choice but to transplant a Blacktop into my car. My
Silvertop died and just couldn't crank up. The mechanic had tried to slab on another Silvertop engine head into my engine but no luck (or so I was told since I was at work). I can't be sure of the root cause but I found screws on the crank pulley to be broken. I got the set of adjustable cam pulleys from Trial Tuning Spirit

Joe wasn't quite as helpful as I'd hoped he'd be anyway. I was left on my own to pay for the expenses to resolve the problem.


However, I must say that I have no regrets at all. For the first time from whence I got the car, I'm actually quite content with the new engine as it sounds healthier and the difference in torque and horsepower is much more evident compared to my previous engine. Stronger, Wilder, More Aggresive and a Wider Power Band... It's hard not to love it.
