4G1Series Dinner & Touge

Ah. Its 5.03AM, I should be sleeping but im pumped/scared. Whai?

Went for my first touge in Genting Sempah today, to those who dont know, google it up. All I got were accident pictures & dead bodies, guess i'm blessed by the grace of God to make it back in one piece.

ANYWAYS. Dinner with the 4G1Series guys was good! I didnt eat much, and of course being a newbie there I barely spoke to anyone at the table but...

Coming down from genting, oh that was fun. Scary, but fun. HAHA everyone was so surprised what a wagon can do, actually i'm pretty surprised myself too.

Though the its not all perfect, on the way back from genting the wagon made a 'SCCCHRRRRRCH' sound from the gearbox and a loud 'CLANK' as if something fell out from it. Sien. I really really hope that its just my lingkages that are giving the problem, not my gearbox fluid... though I should change it soon. I just read online redline oil is NOT recommended for NON-LSD Transmissions.

Habis. Thats exactly what mine is :(.

AND SPM OH MY LAWD ITS SO NEAR.

Of Carburettors & Roses

 Hey guys :). Gosh its been awhile, like really REALLY long since i've last blogged. Been putting this topic off for quite awhile now, i've FINALLY gotten my Weber carburettor for the wagon, and few more things too!
 Externally all i've did was remove the mudflaps, welded on a cannon muffler, gotten an AE92 replica hood scoop & a small fatlace sticker on the front right windscreen. Lugnuts too have been swapped to a shiny (more like faded now) hue of gold instead of the old rainbow ones. Fact, they dont last as a daily drive. This is the last time i'll ever recommend Bl*x lugnuts to anyone, ever. Thinking of changing them back to rainbow ones, or pure plain silver long ones. HOWEVER, the highlight of this post isnt the external...



I guess it would be this, the infamous Weber carburettor. The carburettor with a long lineage to Italian cars, is finally on my Japanese err, wagon. Heheh. Though I didnt get the 40 DCOE's that I wanted, I got a 40 DCNF & a mechanical distributor from a 130y. Why?





Pretty simple, I tell you now, you no worry :B. Kays err, first. My GA16DS's intake and exhaust ports are puny. They really could use porting & free-er flowing cams but I dont have those, the 40 DCNF is midly bigger than my OEM, however the 40 DCOE's would prolly have twice, or even thrice the flow of the DCNF. Why would I need the extra petrol without airflow? So yeah thats why I got the DCNF.

The Mechanical distributor doesnt have a revcut, unlike my original GA16DS has some sort of funny revcut at 7000rpm. Maknanya, I can rev my car freely until the pistons make 4 nice holes on the hood :D.
No worries though, its a lovely upgrade over the old OEM carb with the stupid electronic autochoke that ALWAYS had to malfunction.

Okay so differences. I've got more power. Much torquier from 2000rpm-4000rpm, I dont rev that much to gain speed now, I just short shift and ride the torque wave whoo! It also consumes LESS petrol. Yeah LESS petrol for MORE power. Amazing yes? The mechanical distributor I got also raises my revcut to 7000rpm + , but for now its not nessecary. Best of all? The sound of petrol being squirted into the carb. Pshhhhh. PSHHHH.



Though I cant leave the carburettor exposed, nobody wants leaves and so going in. I ordered a K&N filter from ZTH, Kang Yoon to be specific, I forgot his ZTH nickname. Pretty quick delivery time, I ordered it on monday got it on wednesday, installed it by thursday. Sadly after the filter its less responsive and much quieter :x.


Drawbacks? My car's clutch is slipping. Drove the car at 6000rpm on 3rd gear, you can see the revs climbing but my speed stays the same. Extractors are also too... small. Uncle Ramly says that I should get enlarged ones. PERSONALLY, I think they're not just small, they flow badly too. Did I ever mention my headers are mixed, top half from a B14, bottom half from a N16 and are pirated crap ones? Gonna have to save for a properly tuned one down the road and a new clutch too.


But, its funny even with all of these i'm still missing one girl who is very dear to me :|. I feel like all these car mods, yamcha, its like a waste of my time sometimes. Whats the fun in blowing money all for myself, smoking my life away? Not just by shisha, tire smoke, clutch smoke whatever HAHA. I rather care for people :(... Its funny though. I had this dream where I went to her house to give her roses, just because I could.

THEN I WOKE UP.

The only woman in my life I can actually give roses to now that deserves it would be my mum, for always being there to support me for 18 years. Whether i've argued, cursed, fought, whatever. She still loves me :(. 

Its funny how all the girls i've bothered chasing after never worked out. One wasnt intrested at all, but I was in denial after her. Why? She's pretty, I have the same intrests as her so I thought it would work, guess what? It didnt. She's still super pretty though :D. One I actually lost a friend going after her, and until now, I still dont know how much she liked me or whether it was just words. The fact where she speaks in like, almost riddles confuses me. Perhaps im just stupid & ignorant. IF she was clearer I think I would still like her, its too bad I can never decipher her intentions or words. The presents she gave me for my birthday & christmas are beautiful though. Very much beautiful like her, but thankfully those are easy to understand. Though, all I ever wanted from her was the clearnce for me to call her my girlfriend and for me to love her, didnt get that so yeh. I stopped chasing her. And last. That one girl that fits my criteria but just wants to be friends. Actually, COMING to think of it after summarizing everything, I SUCK AT READING GIRLS. Sien.


The girls i've chased are a complicated bunch, no? Whoever i've aimed for recently after my 'mellowing down' stage has failed, and right now my self esteem & confidence is Z-E-R-O. Im so lazy to look at girls, or even bothered to flirt because its a waste of time. Pfft. Is it really that hard to get a Godly, funny girl that loves me and is adventurous? :O I prolly can only choose 2-3 out of 4 on my criteria.


So this would be my update for now, i'm happy, but i'm also pretty emotionally dead. Why? I've got all the physical pleasures of life, not the emotional kind. Such a pity. If this goes on i'll prolly become as emotionless as a brick, can't even smile nowadays properly.
