Title: Lets see what car you drive
Post by: takashi78 on September 29, 2010, 07:18:26 PM
Some want their watch and car to look equally as good but some just treat it as something you use to go from A-B.
Well lets see what car you all drive.
My current is just a Vios when i bought i was looking for the most fuel efficient under 100k.

Title: Re: Lets see what car you drive
Post by: duniajam on October 04, 2010, 09:36:12 AM
Tq bro  ;),

So far the Beetle doesn't gave any big problem to me. For maintenance wise, not a high maintenance car for me because most of the services I make by myself. Just like regular car, oil changing, filter, spark plug.... The engine is a very simple. But many mechanic dun have the guts to do it & also some think VW engine (vintage) is hard to do.  :mooning: So some take this opprtunity increase the repair charge....  :Blue:

I heard one story from a friend, an uncle send his Beetle for engine overhauling... the mechanic charge him abut RM8k!  :HammerHead: What a liar....

Yup, a few of them. Hilarious. Gesundheit!

Still, a rebadged Lancer at a marked down price, albeit with some local content, is still a decent buy.
The car still has plenty Mits logo all over!
Ulysse Nardin has got made in Malaysia parts too. But of course thats in a different class.
Oh dear, methinks me open to jabs now. :HammerHead:

Some local content. Most parts still wit Mits logo. The rims and tyres are a letdown.
Other than that, its a rebadged Lancer. A homage with ori parts?

Manburg, the Omega is a Dynamic. No more in production. Should have bought the one with chrono features.

"Quit" playing ICE already, was SQ lover, but all equipment still in my old car, not planning to build another system in this car.  :D

Why quit such a great hobby???
Care to share what ICE equipment you had??
I am also a SQ lover, no, fanatic!!!
I install the system into my car when it was just 2 weeks old-had to strip open the roof linings, door trims etc to instal SP.
In total the car was at the shop for more than a week before I finally got to enjoy great music in the car.

My humble setup in my old car... :)

Alpine CDA-7998R Phantom face (time correction, electronic crossover tuned)
Alpine SPR-176A Type R 2-way component set (removed crossover) /with windshield tweeter mount for better staging.
Alpine V12 MRV-F345 4 Channel Amp for front
Alpine V12 MRD-M605 Monoblock for sub
Kicker comp 15 subwoofer with sealed box
Streetwires RCA cables



 
Title: Re: Lets see what car you drive
Post by: pisces on March 05, 2011, 08:25:20 AM
WOW!! Alpine lover!!
You are running full active with the built-in crossover in the 7998, right??
You have such good equipment and I think it's a waste not to install them back into your new ride.
I am using the Alpine CDA7990 F1 Status HU, 4 channel Brax X2400.2 GE to run the front SEAS Lotus comp in front and a Class AB TRU Hammer monoblock to power the 12" SEAS Lotus sub in 1.35cu.ft sealed box.
Since the HU is a pure deck, I use the TRU F1 active crossover for the tuning.
I did all the tuning by myself.
Title: Re: Lets see what car you drive
Post by: silverstan on March 05, 2011, 08:40:47 AM

Yea, running full active with built in x-over.

now i am enjoying music with headphone.

Now i prefer Good music + red wine at home ;D
