New Shoe~

There are few wedding party I have to attend within this 2 months, thus I decided to purchase a pair of new shoe to match with my long pants. If not mistaken, my previous formal shoe was bought at 3 years ago, its a Hush Puppies and mainly used for my presentation during college time. I'm a person who dislike formal wear, at 1st I'm struggling which type of shoes should I purchase....

Until I saw this one at Pavilion, Gucci Lace-up Sneakers. From my view, this shoe is not a formal shoe BUT it provide semi-formal look and its good match with any long jeans or pants. ^_^

Arrival Of Okada Plasma Direct

The coil arrived at 14th of September, after new coil was installed, all the annoying sound was gone! But the rev indicator still occasionally jump at idle.... Han help me to check all the hose and BOV, there is no leaking and still in good condition. In the end, he took out the AAC valve to clean, the problem of "jumping rev" solved after the valve is cleaned.

The car is very smooth and more response than before, I bet is caused by the OKD coil plug~ Before I stop this topic, I would like to thanks Formula MB especially Han and Zai who help me collect parts and repair my car, thanks a lot ^_^

OKD Plasma Direct...

The part number is here, for GTR34 RB26DETT~

This is the OEM coil from my Hippo~

Sorry for poor picture quality, I forget to bring my DSLR there at the moment....

What Is The Problem?

As I said, I'll solve my car's problem after the clutch installed. What is the problem?

"When accelerating, car seems like heavy to move. After release the gas pedal, the rev indicator will drop below 1000rpm and goes up and down when the car is idling. It also will stall occasionally after release gas pedal. Besides that, there is a strong rattling sound from engine bay, like "dak dak dak dak", at 1st I thought is caused by my release bearing but problem still occur after new clutch was installed."

After going through a few inspection, Han told me the rattling sound is caused by the faulty 5th ignition coil plug, he suggested me change whole coil set to aftermarket product. What else? The "OKADA Plasma Direct" is always in my modification list, since the situation forced me to change a new coil, I asked Zai to order the OKD Plasma Direct for me.

Anyone Interested?

Anyone interested please visit to Formula MB, thanks~

Ogura Metal Twin Clutch P559D, for BNR34, pull type and is a brand new! I bought this before I found out my car was actually converted to push type, thus this item now is place at Formula MB for sell~

OS Giken triple plate R3C, for BNR34, Push type, USED, previously used in my car, suggested to purchase with the rebuild kit.

Arrival Of OS Giken STR2CD

Sorry for some late update:

After a long period hunting for stock OEM release fork for my Hippo and that is still no sign of it, I finally give up and decided to purchase a new clutch, I asked Zai to order me a OS Giken STR2CD clutch kit, it come together with the alteration adjustment movement. Thus, the ORC P559D is on selling now, anyone interested can give a call to Formula MB.

The OS twin clutch arrived at 6th of September. Nevertheless I'm quite busy on that day but I still able to visit FMB to capture some pictures of the clutch. Erm..... From my view, OS STR2CD and ORC P559D is almost the same, both can hold power around 550HP, the only thing different is the price for OS Giken will be more expensive due to it come with the converter release fork.

Some pictures of my new clutch kit.

Its for BNR34~

Here is alteration adjustment movement, convert from pull to push type.
