Reservoir Tank Covers


Hi Guys! 10 years back, which is on September 2010, I bought pairs of reservoir cover for the brake reservoir tank and power steering reservoir tank. You can read it back here

And today, I bought again the reservoir tank cover since the one that I bought was torn and very bad in shape. At first I was looking for Ralliart covers which is sold in my country but I unable to locate it. Most covers that is sold in my country is small in size and not to my liking. So after few hours of online windows shopping, I managed to find the correct size which I was looking for. Without delay, I clicked on the "Buy Now" button 😝. After few days of waiting then the covers delivered to my doorstep and quickly I covered the naked reservoir tank. One word, satisfied! LoL.


blue is my favorite color actually... haha....


oh yes, change to newer and fancy bolts and washers on my MIVEC cylinder head top cover because.... why not? 😆


to install it is as easy as you wearing socks... lol


voila! my HKS reservoir tank cover and Password JDM dress up bolts and washers


Again, some of you might be thinking what is the function of it right? Well if you asked  me then my humble answer is for the wow effect in the engine bay 😂. By the way, the function is actually to absorb fluid from brake and clutch reservoir that may escape and spill into the engine bay or road under hard driving/braking.

Thank you and see yo guys in the next post.

Tomica Mountain Drive Playset

Hi Guys!

On the previous post, I have shared some of my Tomica diecasts collection which I really love so much. And for this post, I would like to share with you guys where I usually **touge my diecast cars (Including Hot Wheels/Matchbox/RMZ) the safer way..... Hehe.. 

**(Tōge (峠, also spelled touge) (pronounced 'TOE-ge') is a Japanese word literally meaning "pass". It refers to a mountain pass or any of the narrow, winding roads that can be found in and around the mountains of Japan and other geographically similar areas) -wikipedia

Tomica Mountain Drive Playset


do subscribe to my >> YouTube Channel <<


As the time goes by, the track surface will becomes smoothless if compared to the first time you bought it, but don't worry as you can always smooth it back by polishing. You can use below products which you can easily found in the store to polish the track:

1) Clean and soft microfiber cloth

2) "Pledge" enhancing polish - water based (suitable for wood & plastic)


Steps:
Spray the enhancing polisher just little bit to the surface of the track and wipe it with clean and soft microfiber cloth. Make sure to focus more on the edge of the track. After you have wiped the residue, try put the diecast car and see whether the car flows much better anddddd.... If not, repeat steps until you are satisfied :) 

Hope this help :) 

*********Some pictures of me and my little boy who shares the same interest with me 😜*********


he must be thinking on which model should he
 asks his dad to buy next.... hehe..

And if you guys have other tips and tricks on how to maintain the playset, do shares in the comment section below. Thank you so much guys! See you in the next post.

The Best Post About AE86

Hi Guys!

This is an old post which i came across few years back but I still think i should reshare the story. I have always been a fan of AE86 right after I watched most of Keiichi Tsuchiya's Hot version/Best Motoring racing videos and from reading Initial D manga (comic). Other that that, when my big brother transplanted the legendary 4AGE 20 Valves engine to his Corolla AE101 (yeah not AE86... but still a great car during that time 😍).. my love for AE86 and 4AGE engine keeps on up until now. You can read about the car from this post My Big Bro's Ride


And back to the story... this guy, Larry Chen from Speedhunters, were given the opportunity to shoot a brand new AE86 that has been sitting in a basement for 25 years! such a long time right? and you might think that the car condition will be bad but this will shocked you..... have a look at the link below and you can read the original content there.


See you guys in the next post!

My Other Hobby

Hi Guys!

Today I would like to share my other hobby. I really love Tomica Diecast Cars and I have collected few model from Tomica but one of my favorite collection is from Dream Tomica Initial D lineup. Since this collection is quite rare today, I found that some of the model sold in my country is not that cheap but I managed to buy few models for my collection. Below are some of the model that I managed to collect:


Dream Tomica No. 145 Initial D AE86 Trueno (Released date: 21st September 2013)


Dream Tomica SP Initial D FD3S RX-7 (Project D Ver.) (Released date: March 2016)


Dream Tomica No. 168 Initial D FC3S RX-7 (Released date: 19th March 2016)


Dream Tomica Initial D S13 Silvia (Akina SpeedStars) (Released date: 27th February 2019)



Dream Tomica No. 141 Initial D Skyline GT-R (R32) (Released date: May 2015)

But since Tomica does not produce Subaru Impreza GC8 and Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution III, which is sad 😭..... so I bought the Tomica Premium lineup to complete the Initial D collection setup:


Tomica Premium No. 15 Subaru Impreza 22B-STi Version (Released date: 16th April 2016)

Tomica Premium No. 23 Mitsubishi Lancer GSR Evolution III (Released date: 15th July 2017)


I am currently looking for Nissan Skyline GTR R34 and Toyota MR2 SW20 (Initial D lineup) with a good price. Most sellers that I managed to locate sold the model with a very high price tag so i decided to wait and still search for a better bargain.


My Fujiwara Tofu Shop from Initial D setup:

Remember this scene? if yes, then you are truly Inital D anime fan 😁


Please watch the anime if you haven't 😜 but, trust me only the true car enthusiast will appreciate this anime. 



That's all for today's post! See you guys in the next post 👋

New Intake Setup

Hi guys!

For the last 2 months, i have been thinking of changing my intake setup.After a bit of research and guidance from my mechanic, i choose to go for Mugen air-box setup which is originally made for Honda's engine.

Haven't dyno the engine so i can't share with you guys any increments (perhaps :p) figure.

So far.... i'm happy with the setup 😁

And yeah, i also relocate my battery at the back in order to give a bit more space in the bay for the intake setup. My engine bay look quite neat after the battery relocation.
