Hi there, i'm deciding to start my project log in Lowyatnet here with not much on the modding parts coz i don consider myself as a real modder.
As a real modder you need some talent and lots of patient, which i don have much on both of it ha.
I got most of the hardware on my hand to water cool an I7 platform inside my TJ07.
I'll try to finish my project before chinese new years. (hopefully )
And i wish this project log will not dissapointed you guys and of course myself.

Playing with computer hardware and all those liquid cooling parts really cost me a bomb, but i'm enjoying it.
Liquid cooling computer hardware already become one of my hobby and it cost me most.

The initial of the project, i bring you guys this:

Starting with this:



Yes you guess it right, its a hammond box.
The essential of murdermod style TJ07.
And yes i'm copycat.

Now bring you to my lovely sweety TJ07, its nake now haha.
This is why i like her most.



to be continue...

Try to cover up this ugly area.



My little hammond box gonna help me out.



Hmmm.... it looks much more better now.


I'm trying to making it better.


Now i can say it's cool enough.



That's all for today, thanks for checking in.

@freeman1314
Ya the time is short, but I'll try my best to complete it.

@jiroHC
Thanks bro.

@don^don
I did make an opening on the other side for cable.
The opening isn't so nice that's why I didn't make a shot from other side.
Hmmm... I think I'll still make a shot or two by tonight.

@rc2x
Working hard now, life is too busy.

Some photo of sleeved psu, my little corsair HX1000.
Its actually a gift from my very very old good friend, bro acther.
It has a story behind this psu, i really appreciate this.

Ya i know, no story here.
Here you go with the picture.

The PSU itself


MDPC-X ftw!



8 pin done.


And the 24 pin.


It took me around 3 days getting to this point.
Wake up--->sleeving--->eating--->sleeving--->sleeping

Proudly to present you the result of MDPC-X sleeving.
I'm satisfied for the result.

@kinozawa
Thanks for the encourage bro, it really means something to me.

I afraid my progress are running too slow, and nothing to show you guys.
So decide to take some picture for my hardware to keep my project alive.

So let the picture do the talking:


The mother board.



Really like the design of original heatsink.
oppps i mean ASUS, not the INTEL heatsink.




The CPU block.



I like this photo.



No sequence photo of installation, because i'm lazy ha.



Take out the original heatsink.



New shirt for my R3E.







Chipset block on.


To be continue.....

I know its not powerful enough, but its more than enough for me.


My EK twin.

Wait a minute.... it can't consider twin, the color......


No worry about it.





Ahaaaaa......



GC blocks on.



It took me around 3 hours getting to this point.

@Acther

Keep in touch bro.

@jungle_boy
Thanks, will update when I have progress.
Looks like wont be so soon, now is critical part.

@reiben05
The plexi top I get it from brother Vlad.

Thank you bro, ok juga guna cosmos1000 cukup cantik tu.



Sorry guys, i cant finish my project as i promise before.
Now CNY was finish, my rig is only half way to go.

I did expect 1 major upgrade during CNY, due to this ETA i stop all my internal parts assembly.
But after so many day and night for waiting, i gain nothing (hmmm... i think i learn something).... maybe the santa claus doesn't like me.
It's ok, the life still goes on. At least i can start to catch back the progress of my rig.

Ok, time to continue my on going project.
This update i'm going to touch my casing, some opening for cable management should be cool ya.

Here you go with the picture:

Some opening for the cable management.
Mid plate, mobo plate and invert atx back plate.



roughly mark up the position for some cable route through.


Items for hole opening-->hole saw+rotary drill.



First hole done, and the second.



closer shoot.




Rubber grommet attach.




Mid plate done.
Finger print all over the place.

I apologise that i didn't going into detail, i'm the kind of person that can only do 1 thing at a time.
I really cant drilling half way then stop and take out my camera taking photo.

Thanks for viewing.

TJ-11 not my cup of tea , and i think the price range i cannot effort.
Btw good job on your modding worklog. looking forward on that.
Just saw that you wreck your mom's civic few months ago, lucky u didn't wreck your dad's Alphard ha. (just kidding)


No la bro, just small mod. there are so many sifu here.
if you really play WC again, i sure help you out. (but must finish mind 1st haha)
I miss your 20k rig hehe.

OMG! i totally forgot this little sucker, the little part should be cut on my original plan.
I won't be able to cut it right now, the reason will be show in the photo later.




Thanks bro, hope the result won't dissappointed.



I got my parts back from powder coating factory, the result was so cool...
But bro owikh point out 1 important part that i should mob a little but i didn't.
I afraid if i cut it right now it will affect my powder coating on that part, so right now i shall remain like that.
Might cut the little sucker later, i'll see how this thing go.

Just took a few shoot on some powder coating result.





Test assembly, this is so cool with internal black... yet still long way to go.
I think all the TJ07 should be manufacture internal black by silverstone haha, what do you guys think.




Thanks for checking in.

I think I smell an epic rig is coming out from u.

Thanks bro, the powder coat cost me RM150 for whole internal black.
If you in Kl area, Ronzmod should provide you better price on that.
the only problem is he too busy.

Bro owikh already answer ur question.
As i think there will be reduce some degree of rigidity (minor), but still within acceptable level.
It confirm workable and proof by our legend modder Mr. Ianho.

I'll test fit 1st then only decide whether to do a plastic surgery for that little sucker or not.

before this i didn't know Ronmodz can fabricate, so i bought it from Chillpc UK.
Really cost me a bomb haha.




And the progress going on.
today gonna show you guys the radiator and fan that i'm using.
Its TFC480 and Scythe S-Flex 1600RPM.

Here you go:



Small box underneath hehe.



Fan wire going underneath with p-clip attach.



Black color fan molex.



Overall shot.




Test fit to check the space between bottom and mid plate of my tj07.
Exactly the height that i want.



On the othere side.



Thanks for checking in.....again.

Yes TFC is a thick rad, but now doesn't have plan to use push pull configuration since its fpi doesn't as high as BI rad.
I'm not a hardcore OC'er, and i'm searching for balance between OC/temp/noice/performance/appearance.
I need some clearance between rad and psu for tube looping, it will more clear after i show you the picture......later(not so soon).
You are right, i need to extend the power switch cable and usb cable. Thats why until now i haven't sleeve the power switch cable.
Actually i purposely leave the 2 supporting frame like that just to creat some contrast effect. And most important its murdermod style ha.
Thanks for the suggestion.

For the price you can always check it on chilledpc's website.
Very eye sharp bro, yes i'm using doublesided tape upside down hehe.


Not so sure about the weight, but the 3M doublesided tape is quite strong.
Try shake a bit after i tape the rad, it remain steady.

Not so soon, i'm still lack of 1 important item.
Will update when i have prpogress.

Thanks bro, you can always have a.....FEW case for 480 rad if you want to.

Added on February 23, 2011, 1:23 amHi all, no progress until now.
Received 1 parcel few days ago from far far away, haven't try all the stuff out there.
But decide to show you guys what's inside.



Well.... i guess all of you will know what's inside after i show you the 1st picture haha.
Here it is...

No! Its not sleeve inside, its some other things.


A crimping tool, i know it can be purchase locally.
Just cannot resist to spend money to Nils' MDPC-X when i saw the stuff.
Well, i guess i have to stop browsing MDPC website..... or maybe not too offen hehe.



Here is another shot of the crimping tool or can i call her a "T-Rex"?


Its pretty much a "T-Rex" right now.



The molex power connector.





And the crimp contact for fan.





The crimp contact for ATX and PCIE.





Try to fabricate some wire for cable management with all the stuff above.
A bit worry on that, because never done all this before.
It should take me a week or 2 to make some cable.
If the next update i'm showing other things than this, you know i'm fail haha.

Thanks for viewing.

Thanks bro, bulk is not a problem.
I think few forumner carrying MDPC-X stuff, it will be easier if they have ready stock.

My project is running much more slower than i expect, still encounter few problem at the moment.
I'm just kind of lazy......

DHL took 3 weeks to arrive!? I have some experience shipping with DHL, it took only 3-4 days from Uk to MY.
Maybe it was the custom problem that delaying ur stuff.
Btw thank for sharing bro.

Answered by bro owikh.

Hmmmm..... very important information.




Ok Its me again.
I have very little progress, manage to make some cable for my GC power cable.
the original corsair's power cable was not long enough.
Try out my "T-Rex" today, the result are satisfactory.


here you go.....

Cut out some wire to the length that i need.





My T-rex was crunching the atx crimp connector.



1st wire done, the result not bad.
What you pay is what you get, Nils' product was always perfectly done.





All 6 wires done, i finish all 6 wires at around 1 hour times.
I was surprise it was quite easy to handle, maybe the tools just right.





6 Pin power connector.



My 1st 6 pin GC power cable consider done.
Will sleeving it later.



This update was actually quite boring i think, hopefully the next update will be more interesting ha.
Thanks for checking in.
