A Memorable Day

Today is 2-9-2009, for Chinese, today is the ghost festival; but to me, it is the unforgettable day in my life. Why I said like this? Is because good new and bad news both happen to me in one day. The bad news is I fail to wait for my S204, Alex told me there are still no green light given by Custom to drag out this car, only 2 ways can solve this problem, 1st option is to send back to japan, re-fill the Manifest document form and send back to Malaysia wheareas second option is to send this car to KK(Kota Kinabalu) to buy another AP, both will take very long time. In the end, I decided to give up this car even I'm not willing to. However, I'm here to wish this car can find a good owner in the future~

Life never turns out the same way that you expect. I lost S204 but I gain another car. Try to guess what car I bought? Evo X? Type RR? Impreza X? orrRR... maybe Impreza RAR? Hehehehe:-) Anyway, the loan is on progressing now. I'm request the dealer to help me fix up some new parts, thus it will take 2 weeks time to complete it. Frankly, it is beyond my expectation to me getting this car, this is everyone's dream car, well known, and with a motto of "Icon of the world". Finally, my preyer has been answered by god. Lol~

From now on, the blog's Label "My S204" will still be there but will stop update after today until I get my X car, I'll put on a new Label and a new main cover picture(with title) of this blog.

Insist To Wait For It!

Before begin to write this post, I wanna thanks to Darryl for help me to urge Alex about my car. From him, I finally know what is the problem of causing my car cannot be drag out from custom department.

Regarding what Alex said, after the Japan Car Agent success bid this car, they pass to shipping company to deliver this car to our country. Unfortunately, the shipping company fill-in wrong name of Alex's company, thus the car now stuck at custom department.

Anyway, Alex has send an email to the shipping company and request them to correct the mistake and ask them to send a consent letter in order for custom approve this car to drag out. So what Alex said is "wait", it may take few weeks and worst to worst few months 0_0

By the way, Alex is finding another S204, just in case if this new S204 is arrive earlier than the 500/600 S204, I can choose it. To be honest, nowadays S204 is very rare at japan auction, therefore I think the best way is to wait. For the GTR34, I prefer GTR is my second car after S204 since I worry can't afford to maintain it as my current income status.

I'm here to declare, my 500 may not be get it so soon but I'm still waiting for it. Alex has allow to refund my deposit for me to choose other car but I insist to wait for 500, because I really do love it so much! Not only S204 but is a 500th S204!

I'll wait you forever!

Visit Of TRA

Due to this Friday I'll go to Singapore, plus today I'm quite free, so I went to money changer to exchange some Singapore Dollar. After exchange money, I went to Timur Raya to find Alex. Actually the purpose of this trip wasn't to urge Alex for my S204, but is to view the GTR34 V-Spec 2 that available now at his garage.

Before I went to his office, I was pace up and down at his garage around the GTR, I found it this GTR exterior condition is like new one, can't believe the ex-owner can keep this car like this, there are some parts is being changed which is the GT Wing and the sport rim. About the interior, is extremely clean, my parent's eye not believe this is a year 2000 car, for me too. 0_0

Beside of view this GTR34, the other purpose of this trip is plan to change my S204 to this GTR since my S204 still in pending period cause by AP problem. I was inside Alex office to talk about this thing. Before I start to talk, you know what happen? He call the custom department to ask about my car, the custom fellow said this week will know the answer. WHY? why must wait this week? I have been told that those Head of Custom do not work for everyday, they normally work for 1 or 2 days every 2 weeks in order to approve all the pending document at 1 time. From this point, I definitely feel how "good" of our government carry out this job!

This picture is grab from Mudah.com, but is exactly the GTR I view today.




Since the custom fellow said this week will give me an answer, so I'll decided continue to wait for this week...... Anyway, they told me that they have bring in a Tokyo Auto Saloon Impreza, which is fully tuned by VARIS. Wish can see it soon~

Which One Should I Choose?

I have been waiting so long for my S204 drag out from Port Klang, finally today I call Calvin's boss, Alex to ask about what happen about my car. Alex told me due to some problem about the filling wrong AP of this car, he also told me if possible fastest can done within 2 weeks but if worst condition I have to wait 2 or 3 more months.....

Anyway, he gave me a few optional see whether can I accept or not:
a.) Continue to wait for my 500/600 S204.
b.) Order another S204 but in different series number (will be faster than option "a").
c.) Choose any other cars available at his place (definitely is GTR34 V-spec 2).

For me, I'll definitely not choose optional "b", since I'm so lucky to get such a nice series number(500/600), I'll not to change to other S204 unless can get some nice series number there. So this narrow down to optional "a" and "c". For option "c", I only interested to 1 car from his place, which is Nissan GTR34 V- Spec 2, but don't know why I still can't let go my 500 S204 and I have less knowledge about GTR34 (how to know a true V-spec 2?).....

How???

500 Has Arrive Port Klang!!!

Yesterday afternoon, I feel too free thus I call Calvin to ask about my 500, he told me that my 500 has arrived Port Klang last week, the only thing now is waiting for the custom approved then will bring the car to JPJ for inspection, follow up with loan document then I can drive my 500 home! By the way, his company decided to change a new music player(perhaps is DVD player, LOL) as a gift for me. Thank you so much to Timur Raya as well as to Calvin.

While waiting, I have plan few things I must do after get my car:

1. Install a good security system, safety is always the 1st priority for me since a stock impreza did not come with alarm system plus nowadays sport cars has became a thief magnet, F**K!
2. Install Defi gauge into my Zero Sport CF gauge hood will be next, this is important to show the driver how well of the engine condition is running when driving. From this point, I'll definitely choose the latest Defi model that just released at January of 2009, named "Defi Link Advancer CR" with "Defi Link Advancer Control Unit". Hopefully N1 or JC racing got this product now~
3. Have a major service at LMY. We don't know how hardcore of the Japanese drive this car at Japan, to make sure our car is running well, major service need to be carry out. At the same time, speed cut will be done at this point~

This hood is ready to fix with Defi, SOON!!


The latest model of Defi (Defi- Link Advancer CR)


2 type of illumination can be switched

Defi Link Advancer Control Unit is necessary


Hopefully all will running smooth as I plan here. Guan Ying sister please bless me~

Arrival Of Zero Sports CF Gauge Pod

This afternoon, I went back shop from old town kopitiam after having my "breakfast" there. My mum ask me to have a look at the counter, she told me I'll happy to see that.

Guess what!? A mail box with "Zero Sports" word, OMG! is the Zero Sports CF meter hood that I order last week has arrived! I feel so excited since this is my 1st time to receive auto parts via this method. I take it carefully and bring back to my home.

At night, I had took a few picture of this carbon hood. Now what I have to do is just wait my car arrive..... Calvin call me few days ago, he told me the ship just arrive Hong Kong, therefore I think I have to wait 1 or 2 weeks again....... Now I totally understand the feeling of "WAITING" something that you like is so hard.... Anyway, the number plate has been done, now just wait the 500 arrive!

So excited to see this mail box!


This gauge pod is bought from Japanpart.com


Item is covered by soft protector material


Direction list, ZS Sticker, ZS emblem and 2-sides tape

Pending Period Is Prolong

Being waiting so long for my S204, I call Calvin at yesterday and he told me my ride still on the way to Port Klang, therefore the date of getting my S204 will be postpone. Although I'm feel a bit upset but I do understand this situation since we can't predict when is exactly time of shipping arrive.

Before this, I decided the 1st thing I must do after get my ride is to install a better security system. While waiting my car arrive, I have do all the research in forum and consult with Peter Chong about the security system. Peter is a owner of CV Mobile Audio which located at Damansara Uptown, he is a very friendly, kind person and expert in dealing with all audio and security matter. I'm personally thumb up for his patient and well explanation of the security system to make me have more picture about this stuff.

By the way, I'm also planning to get a original Zero Sports carbon meter hood for my upcoming defi meter. Problem is, this item is not available at most of the local auto accessory dealer. Therefore the only way is to ask someone to help me bring in this item, until now I'm still finding which shop will to do me this favor..... The reason why I need it so bad is because most of the meter hood will seal the clock but this one NOT! Furthermore, the Zero Sports Meter Hood is with carbon fibre finish to make it look clean and it is no painting required. Hopefully I can find someone to help me bring in this item. *Pray*

This is the one I'm hunting FOR!
