Finally done

Finally...... my budget enough for me to get her a new tyres after waiting for few months(almost haft a year),yesterday brought her to change her new shoes:)

Arrived at tyre shop around 11.00am,due to many customers and I had to wait until 1.00pm++(my turn).
Before wearing her new shoes.


Old shoes were taken out.


Rim covers, see how dirty was it.

Rear

My dirty brake.

The rubber that I'm going to use is Dunlop Formula D01

Actually my first choice of rubber is Yokohama AR01 made from Philippines because the price between Dunlop D01 and Yokohama AR01 not much different, just adding RM10-20(per piece) to get Yokohama. But I don't have any experience for both rubber so I was did some survey about both rubber via forums, my daddy and also the supervisor(from that shop). Of cause the result is not what I wanted, both rubber got their bad and good. About Dunlop Formula D01 is made from Malaysia, a lot of people said that product made from Malaysia(buatan Malaysia) not good at all but my previous tyres Silverstone(Made from Malaysia) still serve me well until I sold the tyres. Finally HER boost up my confidence to choose Dunlop. WHO?


Nissan GTR sitting with Dunlop:) *haha* Same brand but different country made XD. Kiding here >.< .So end up with Dunlop Formula D01:)

Wrapped in 205/45/16 new rubber

Lastly

She looks pretty now *haha*

Last picture

I need lower my car, it looks uncompleted the space between tyre and the fender too high I wanted to lower until 2 finger in between.And also I wanted my rim nuts in blue colour but too bad out of stock, I'm using K racing lock nuts brown colour. They only have brown ,silver ,and rainbow colour nuts ,non of the colour I like so in the end I've chose brown, ugly?

As conclusion, I just testing to drive my car(wrapped in 205/45/16), I can felt a little heavy on her or maybe my 6th sense *LOL*.

Service



Just done my service few day ago, this time I've clocked 5000km from last time major service until now and it took 10months++ just for 5000km, sound crazy? maybe I use my car during weekend only, so that the reason I clocked it so long *haha*. Again I back to proton service center of cause if got other choice I will go other place to service (previous story). The reason I went back because wanted to claim warranty some of my exterior parts have broke such as my right side mirror and rear left light(I get droplets of water inside).
Here the pictures:

It broke by itself


Quite a waste , I just painted the both side mirrors and it just a month only (previous story)
No picture for rear left light:water condensation(Will be post after Chinese New Year)


After that,proton allowed me to claim warranty and swap me a new right side mirror made on 21/1/2010(Manufacturing date) *hoho* quite new:). About the rear light I need to wait after the Chinese New Year cause no stock. So I took the side mirror to paint and fixed back,no picture cause still the same looks(previous entry)

BUT before that I thought I can't claim the warranty due to expired, so I've bought a new side mirror and painted it also. Since I got new want from proton, now I'm putting these up for sale. The condition is very good and haven use before but I've painted it already:(

Extra units:(
Before


After


Rm40

This post suppose be uploaded before Chinese New Year but due to server down/problem, now I only can get my connection back.

By the way, Happy Chinese New Year

Proton Putra

I started like Proton Putra after I got my Wira, yeah... is too late now but never mind. Proton Putra is the only coupe car and made by Malaysia, honestly I like coupe car more than sedan car. Firstly I felt Putra looks bad but after I started enjoying automotive and I felt Putra is a great coupe car:) Since now there are no turning back but I still enjoying much with my ride now^.^(I should be proud what I have now) .

Here the pictures of Proton Putra(modded) that I spotted:

Yeah....... is quite dark for it but only one I got(*at least can see a bit*=D)

Titanium GT-R

Nissan GT-R is quite common on the road nowadays, whereby we can spotted it easily. So far I've spotted Ivory white, Black obsidian, Solid red and Super Silver. But until one day, I had spotted a nice looking color which is TITANIUM (looks like bronze). Of cause I wanted to take some picture, so I took out my crappy Hp and wait for the good timing to make a shot while Titanium GT-R just finished her warm up and revving like rocket till I can't see her shadow. Actually I got few second to make a shot but I was stunning by her devil exhaust(when she revving) and miss the chance. This time I would like to say is rare to see GT-R revving in front of me, normally they drive very slow. *Haha* too bad:).... anyway the colour looks like this:

In the same day, I spotted a Black obsidian GT-R.
