J-pipe, downpipe, whatever they are, they do make nice sounds.....

With them in, the car behaves like a human, inhaling and exhaling and sighing as the throttle is pressed and depressed.....

Well, that's the car and I'm just exhaling with excitement.....

A case of RM2.70.....

The RON97 is going through an uptrend in prices and doesn't seemed like it is going stay at RM2.70 for a long time.

This does spell trouble right and I see the RON95 following suite in the very near future.....

A case of a busted o-ring.....

This time the o-ring in the CO2 solenoid valve decided to end its tenure and I ended up losing all my CO2 gases within the night.....

As I recall rightly, I had about 50psi  of gases and by the time I see the sunrise of the next day, all I see is 0psi on the gauge on the solenoid. This really puzzles me and of course as a good planted tank master, I proceeded to refill the gas and upon connecting the solenoid to the canister, all the gas came oozing out.

Had a quick check and found this.





















Thank god I have a replacement and it was promptly replaced.





















I also put in some CO2 tablets as a backup.





















Well, I had the current canister running full 8 months without refill and if this hadn't happen, I might go another 3 months maybe?

Now that suddenly seemed like a good idea.....

The car was on a slope and the rear wheel went into the arch.....

Looks like the offset has too much positive figures dialed in.....

Perhaps a 5mm or 8mm spacer would make things look great.....
