DIY : Gauges and Radiator Shrout.

It's been awhile since my last update coz I dont have any mood on updating the latest project. Hehehe. Sigh, Im returning to UTM next week and Im not ready for the new semester. I want to stay at home and do more project on Bee. Huhuhu. Anyway, the Autobot stickers and Mazdaspeed wannabe sticker. Wee.

Already stick the Mazdaspeed sticker but I still cant decide where should I place the Autobot logo. Any idea?

While Mok was designing the gauges board, my roomate came for a sticker job. He just painted his car and interested with the Mini theme. So why not? At least I gain more experience on sticker job. Measuring and marking time.

End results! Looks good from far. Har har har.

Then there's Mr Jaguh Autoworks in action. Seriously if you asked me, wiring job is the hardest coz I cant imagine the wiring logic. LOL~ I failed my electric subject anyway.

My aircond fan that had not been working since my aircond motor gone. So, I asked Jaguh to do some wiring so that I can make it working for some extra air suction as an aid for the radiator fan. And luckily, I got one unused switch on the dashboard.

OEM with the dashboard. I wonder what is the original use of the switch?

The custom panel by Mok. Unfortunetaly the license plate is really weak and it broke into two after 1 gauge hole was made. So I will buy an advertising plastic board as it is much easier to work on,much lighter and reliable.

As for the radiator shrout, it was cut into two as the fan is big and the distributor are really close to the radiator. The shrout was meant for Vannete C22/ A15 engine, and my radiator luckily is from the A15 engine also. Previous owner love to mix and match I think.

The top shrout fits like a glove. LOL. As for the rear, Jaguh cut it into another half and only fit the right side only. So now Bee has a much better cooling system. Two working fan, one can be controlled from the inside, another one is direct (Im thinking of switching to a clutch fan soon), a shrout to channel the air, and I hope it works.

And I bought an Autogauge for the RPM. Unfortunetaly again, it is malfunctioning and it is not accurate at all, so I will exchange it tomorrow for a Jasma one.

My pet, Bujur (Oval) was sleeping on the couch while Im updating this post. Manage to woke him up with the flash. Gosh, this little creature is very cute.

Random : Transformers 2 : Revenge of the Fallen.

"Fuwahh!" is the only words that came out when we (Mok & me) arrived at the cinema area. Guess what, the cinema is full on a working day! All Transformers show from 10am till 12am was sold out! Of course we tried to get in the queue and thought of buying a ticket for tomorrow's show and we were lucky coz there's one couple seat left for today's so we took it. Hahaha. My luck I guess.

My score for the movie? 11/10! Yes, no doubt it is the BEST movie ever made and it is worth more than RM10 per movie. We will be watching it again on Imax, in a 3D version. Just go and watch it for yourself, it is really worth watchin it and full of action in 2hours plus. Awesome, awesome. That's all I can say when Im in the cinema.

Go watch it! Go! And please dont buy the pirates DVD, you wont get thrilled and enjoyed it coz there's a lot of animation and I can bet you the DVD version will failed you.

Some goodies from the cinema and Petronas. This will go to my collection vault. Hehehe.

The car was prepared just for the movie! Flare back on, new rims, and 3piston symptoms is back! More sign to do overhaul.

Bumble Bee in the movie is very funny and emo. I guess mine is same. Kekekeke. 3piston running also still went to the Jusco for the movie.

The butt. I wish the car is in good condition. Another 3-5years perhaps.

Mok is back! Wee. She came from JB just for the movie. Thank you dear for coming.

DIY : Stripper Project. Day 2.

Day 2 stripping project. My special guest of the day is Mok! Like it or not, she was helping me stripping the car; whole day! Hahaha. Lets see Mok in action.


Another shot. Trust me, its not an easy job to remove the sound deadening.


Done! Was kinda rushing coz today Im driving to Johore Bahru.


More dark secret revealed! More holes from driver side.


And big holes from passenger's side.


So, the car will be left for a while as Im collecting some budget to repair the whole floor and others. Its either will be left for a long time, or if my 'business' is running good, it might be a whole makeover for the car. God knows.

Good night folks!

DIY : Stripper Project. Muahahaha.

Stripping project started today! Waited for Jaguh to came around 2pm. Mok also came to help me and visiting her future mother in law~ Hahaha. So, lets get started:

My house will be messy for a few days. Sooo many unused parts in the dashboard will be in the box.


Moment of truth. Rear floor, no rust! Good.


Front? Well, looks good. Lets search deeper!


Sound deadening removal process.


After a while. Wire brush + manual way. Secret revealed!


While we were doing the floor, Mok did this with some help from AutoSol.


Dashboard had been removed. Dusty, messy, and a lot of unused parts. We will remove some parts to save a few kilos in the car.


Kinda dissapointed when I saw these holes that hide behind a carpet all this time.



The main culprit of the rust? Aircond panel. Yay~ Rain water was channeled inside the car through this hole. Need to seal this holes too.



Dashboard beam that need treatment too. Sigh.. Main problems of old Mazda; rusty firewall and aircond panel. Just like Megat of PlayHouse told me earlier.



Will continue the sound deadening removal tomorrow and maybe anti rust coat on Thursday maybe? Holes? I will send it to Play House Garage for a treatment. Anyway, thanks to Jaguh and Mok for helping me today. You guys are the best!

Putrajaya Revisit!

At 7pm, I asked Mok whether we are going to Putrajaya or not coz its kinda a big trouble for Bee to travel on heavy rain. Fogging problem, bald tyres, stained window, and etc. But, Mok said its not going to rain. So off we go!

5minutes later, heavy rain fall down! Hahaha. So, with fogging, leakage here and there, poor visibility and bla bla bla, we made it through. Arrived at Putrajaya 1hour later, we decided to go to Taman Warisan first for dinner while waiting for Jaguh to arrive. But he didnt arrived. So, we tapao for him and went to the same location (Palace of Justice, Putrajaya) for a re-photo shoot~

I thought by using a tripod, I will improve on the photography. But I dont think Im improving. Hmm, I think Im running out of ideas to shoot the same car over and over again. Hahaha.

Nevertheless, sharing is caring.

This time Bee only got few photos. Kekeke. Im more on Jaguh's KEtam this time..

5-6years target is making me nuts!

Mok wanted to pose for me this time.

Anyone agree; Mok needs some exercise. Right?!
Back to Jaguh's KEtam..

Sideways KE70 at Putrajaya. Sial punya Afif! Open diff pun tibai sideways here~
New clutch is making the owner to go even more further.

Jaguh = Master of DIY. This time? Extra polished rim. Damn.. Even the hub cap is can spray cover!

Hah, same car again.

Same angle. Boring boring shots.. I dont have any ideas for this car anymore!

Jaguh on the roof. Lucky him coz there's no rust up there.

Mok's pictures. Its been a while since her last photos here. Hehehe.


Model that didnt get paid today. Hehehe.

And finally, the picture of us. Two person that helps me most of the time are them. Thanks guys~
