CRZ Type R.....

once i've read this thru a site, i'm in doubt....is it for real?
guys,better check this out

CRZ Type R

i know this was still a rumours but as what is claimed, Honda Japan with collaboration/independant work from Honda tuning meister, Mugen, they will boost this little 1.5 litre 'petrolectric' powertrain from 122 bhp up to 200 bhp. Standard engine comes with 1o2 bhp engine power plus 20 bhp more from the electric motor, while upgraded version will be 150 engine and 50 electric). this ride will cruise up to 140 mph, hope so....

i've also been browsing for some other tuning competitors and they also been working hard to tweaked this legendary reborn CRX to the max, such as spoon,HKS, Noblesse etc.... perhaps more coming soon from Skunk2, Greddy, MM and such....so now i really have to doubled my saving.....damn!!!

Some technical required...

as i was sitting alone at home after a painfull M.O.S i had this morning, i browse some input to be stucked in my brain as i was damn bored, and this came across the web.

Break In Piston

some might question what is this all about. since i already have my rex stalled a few times before and it make me thinking of what is this guy telling have some good point. please have a browse and understand this slowly.....

im guessing somebody still couldn't get it right....well, our people will called it 'lining in',or 'masak blok/piston' or whatever it named...it similar...
this method only can apply for a new piston ring replacement or boring done an a new block. for those who already had their car for a few years ahead, you're too late.

though this 'motoman' always refering this to his bikes concept, but this method also can be applied to most of the cylindrical engine, cars,bikes,boats,or even lawnmower as long as it have a reciprocating process.

i found that most of the article was simple and easy to understand, yet could help us a lot in maintaining and releasing more HP in our horses, even a tiny little tips does give a very good point....thanks Motoman....you're the man....hehe

got to learn more and gain more....and rex will be sent out tomorrow...we will try to implement this method,and hoping it would last..... :)

CRZ Debut 2011,CRX next-G,at last!!!!







after a few years waiting in patient not to knowing whether this pocket rocket gonna make to production or not,after a 'not so hard' searching & browsing (right now it's 5:20 am...) at last her younger sister was born!!!though she's only make her first debut in US, there is still hope that she is gonna make her appearance in malaysia next year (hope so...soon).
with 1.5 litre cubic capacity with IMA hybrid technology, it's gonna be much more driving fun & pleasure as honda produce a 3 driving mode system for this lovely car: sport mode for 'extreme' driving pleasure, of course (as in low HP 'extreme' made for girls ;p ), normal mode for normal cruising & normal people, and economic mode for 'pocket friendly' user. a number of 122 HP is considered a good figure (mine was 132HP only) since this baby only can carry 2 person (like mine as u all know) plus it does came with 6 speed tranny (not so like my rex...damn!!). more it doesn't have the 'pilot friendly' center console like mine, but a more rainbowlicious meter cluster for sure.....make it more futuristic & 'pilotic' feel...dang!hey,they do come in RED as one of the standard production colour scheme,wuuhuuuuu!!!!

u can read the full article at nihoncar.com (as im tired already...zzzzz)

enjoy a sneak preview from the baby

Rex admitted!!!!

been so long since my last thread. actually i've done a few mod to my beloved rex for this past few month but i'm really not in the mood of bloggin' it. one of the reason is because i've lost my leisure time. other reason, my rex was in her worst condition right now....she had been diagnosed to have a 'jantung berlubang'....and now she just sleeping all day, wont eat and just sit still under the porch. i really hope that someday, maybe someday, i cud get enough fund to support her heart transplant....soon baby,soon....Aminnn....

My Rex Build 1.7 (Mugen Bodykit)

Actually this post should be posted before previous 2 post but,who give a damn about organizing, what matters is just the build....hahahah

its been a long wait for me to perform this all by myself.after getting my bodypart back from Shah Alam last time,i try to fix in the EF8 rear bumper but the stuff didn't come with the full bracket on it,considering that i might use my existing bracket from EF7 bumper.pity me,the bracket was badly corroded i cant even open a screw out of it.so im gonna leave it until i can get another bracket.

i guess it my time to unleashed my another option for the butt-ass part,my long awaited Mugen CRX Pro2 kit.after once off fitment, it seem like it does fit nicely without any 'ketuk2 body' job (its kinda hard if you work alone though,believe me...) and WALLA!!!! my rex is on its way to her world of 'Mugenizer'....actually i want to complete this when my fund of paintjob and bodywork is more than enuff so i can fix some crack on the kit...i've warn u its gonna be a slow build....hehe

the different from EF7 and EF8 bumper...this was EF7This was EF8
