Project Se7eN : Newly Bought Front Brake Set

Time To Change :
Due to the bearing is loose & the rotor is not so perfect in condition, so I decided to change it.
Surf and surf around the forum and I found a seller from KL is selling the whole front brake set for FC3S. The best part is the brake set he selling is including the bearing and everything that just need to plug & play only. Cause some seller only sell the rotor and caliper but the bearing is not included, so we have to get it ourselves or use back the current 1...
After counting my budget, I give the seller a call and check the availability for this item. When he said its still available, I feel quite happy cause I no need headache to find and call around to look for it anymore.
Since my friend from KL, Yeow, is coming back Penang on Friday, so I asked for his help to get the item from the seller and carry back for me.

Good Seller :
The seller forum name CheapCheap, is a nice, friendly & trustworthy seller. After I confirmed to buy the item from him, I banked in for him first. After he get back to shop, he straight packed my item and ready to pass it to my friend. Beside that, I've consult him alot of his personal experience for driving a rotary engine car cause he owned a FC3S before. I learned alot knowledge from him =D

When my friend Yeow pass the things to me, I was shocked because of the good packaging that give fully protection to the item. When the seller said 'later I go back shop and packed your thing up' on that day, I thought he just put in box for me only...hahaha
What a nice seller....recommended ~

Thanks to : Yeow
Thanks alot for helping me to get the item from CheapCheap and bring back to Penang for me.


Nice & Safe packaging...the items are well protected =p

Project Se7eN : Change New Windscreen



22 Aug 2009 - Due to the screen cracked, and it the crack goes all around my windscreen and I feel it quite irritating when I'm driving. So I decided to changed it. Went to my father's old friend's car glass shop and ask them to look for the front windscreen for my car model.
The 2nd day morning, the boss called me up and told me that he already get the windscreen for me...brand new somemore and the price is quite reasonable. I dont expected he able to get it for me so fast lolz...as this car model is so old already and less people will keep stock.
I straight send my car in for changing the new windscreen....since I got no place to go and nobody free to fetch me, so I just sit and wait there.

After 3 hours, the car is done with a new look ~ (without crack ~ hehehe)
Very satisfied for the new windscreen....feel very comfortable when driving day or night xD

Project Se7eN : FC3S Revived & goin' back home ~



11 Aug 2009 - Finally the car is revived !!! Transferred the car to the final workshop for bodykit touchup & paintjob ~ ~ !! Unfortunately...too many cars over there still in the waiting list for paintjob. Haih....need to wait few weeks somemore... It is not a good idea that i parking the car at the workshop for few weeks again, s0 I request the boss to temporary get the front bumper installed so that i can drive this baby 1st ~ So that I can startup the engine everyday to warm up it....main thing is I can listen to the pretty rotary engine sound everyday....heheheeh xD
After I parked this baby on my 'parking lot' (where i parked my car all the time), the 1st thing I do is clean up the car thoroughly from inner to outter....cause you know lar....the condition of the car after came out from workshop LOL

Prof Sheepdog BOV FTW !


Cant imagihe the 1st BOV that I've bought and owned in my lifetime is Sheepdog !!!
Why I'm so excited ? Because i like this sheepdog long long time ago since i started to play & mod car but all the time i never own any turbo car. Last few weeks when im talking about cars with my friend, when we talked about bov's sound, he mentioned that he have 1 unit Prof Sheepdog putting at his mech's shop and never been used since he change to the current BOV. Without any deep consideration, we straight make the deal on @ very reasonable price.
Already pass this baby to my mech and cant wait to see it installed on my car =D

Project "Se7eN" : New rubber shoes ~ Bridgestone Potenza RE-01 R



Last week i feel free and went for a tyre hunting for my car. So i went to the tyres shop that my friend just recommended me last week. Heard from my friend said that their brand new tyres are selling very cheap compared to other shop, and they have alot used tyres too. So i just give a try there. When i parking and walk out from car, they are so friendly to serve me quickly. I just told him im lookin for used 17" tyres. He replied that they have alot and straight bring me to storeroom to see. When i saw their stocks, i almost cant decide what size to get for my car. Then he straight show me 2pcs of tyres and said that the tyres is good, just arrived their shop recently. So i see the tyres.....OMG !!! Bridgestone Potenza RE-01 R !!! 235/45/R17, Year 07, more than 65% thread left...somemore RM300 only for 2pcs. Without anymore consideration i straight pay deposit and tell them i will bring my car next week for them to fix up.
Unfortunately my car still not yet done, and i went to the shop again to settle the balance of the amount. At the same time ask them isit convenience for them to keep the tyres for them or i take back 1st.
They asked me to take back better because there are alot people wanted to buy this tyres. They told the buyer that the tyres is already sold to someone and the owner (me) not yet come & collect..but the buyer not really believe them.
Without giving the boss so much trouble i just carry back the tyres 1st, when my car is done from workshop only come back to fix it up.

Irresponsible Postman v2 ! (Not again...)
