Haha... lowering will be done after the front bumper has been sprayed. This week i guess. Still waiting for my TIEN absorber and springs to come. Its been 4 days waiting for it from ebay @_@
I also dunno what design bumper is dat. the only thing i noe is, i go to the shop, see the acuan looks nice, buy, go home, assemble. Nghee.. Im waiting for the local halfcut shop to get the skyline GT35 rear bumper and then i assemble it to this car.

Havent solved the steering sound.... monday the foreman was on leave..
today i went there... but the sound was gone.... but he told me to bring it back when it got sound so that he can detect what or where the problem is....

Yeah... tie rod end, king pin, bush etc...... took about rm500 to replace all the worn out items....

only things left is the front upper arm link... also worn out.... maybe will do them one shot after changing the absorber later.... blush.gif

in 4 months I been spending money on my eg...

1st steering pump, then tie rod end and arm link, after that.. bateri dead (used 3 years) bought a new one (time to change). Last week the alternator kong, when I got the car today, the brake gave up... almost hit a car in front, had to climb the side walk to evade it...

suspected the brake line got air... as the pedal getting lower to the floor to hit the brake.

Bleed it just now and the brake fluid won't come down from the master cylinder reservoir. Suspected the Master cylinder brake, or the booster...
dunno...


to do list

Suspension, Front Upper Arms, Radiator, Cigarette socket, rear antenna (stuck in the middle perhaps the gear wornout),
rear driver side power window motor, front passenger power window switch. Rust on the rear signal lamp as my car always parked at the sea side..

Hope can fix them soon... demn hard to get 'em parts here...

errrrgghh....  shocking.gif  that's a long to do list.

sea air is bad for all metallic stuff... I used to live by the sea side for 12 years. You wouldn't believe where you can find salt deposits in normal household appliances.
*
yeah... i've been living here for 3 years... and within that time i changed my muffler 3 times... leaking because of the rust.... sweat.gif lastly i choose them by using magnet... to find least metal....
all the screws fr fog lamps, the antenna pole rusted laugh.gif

damm thats why danger bro if you cruise too fast ....can easily hit opposite road if there were traffic coming by...thanks god that time you're not panic...if not doh.gif  doh.gif BTW where you from...??why hard to get parts...??
*
at that time... i had two options... if I hit the car infront... will cost me more to repair.... sweat.gif
so i just climb the curb... and side way... laugh.gif

now i'm at semporna, sabah.... at the tip of borneo... sad.gif
perhaps i will get the parts when i get back home in 3 weeks....
