Rejuvenate My Precious Car Part 2

Went to 3rd mile with some frenz ( otai keta) to change my header and my exhaust system. i didnt noe much bout it but des n herald told me tat it can improve ma car performnce n im in. keep in mind tat my car didnt gone tru any modification for the last 10+ years so anyting to make it better, u bet im in.hehehe. krna sayang ba. So below is the pix the day that we go jalan2



joel with a big questmark.weirdest car i ever see in kch. i suppose it is modified for drag. tol ka?ku enjen jak.ahahaha



again Joel with his curiosity. the rear view of the car. no exhaust what so ever. not even the hole where it come out. again, i noe nothing bout it. so below is all the pix when mechanics install everything to my car.


its time for my green machine to fly fly fly away


New extractor aka header. Can't afford stainless steel so just go for galvanize one. If you are chasing more power and better fuel economy, then you need a set of extractors. Basically extractors make it easier for the engine to push exhaust gases out of the cylinders. With your cars engine running more efficiently, you will notice improvements in fuel economy, and performance.

From what i research, there are 5 great reason to fit extractor to ur car, and in this case, mine.

1. You'll get up to 15% better fuel economy.
2. You'll get increased performance.
3. You'll get more torque.
4. You'll get a cooler and cleaner running engine.
5. Your Auto transmission will run cooler.



After the header, pipes are install to the bullet which basically straightly connects to the tip/muffler/silencer. im using matola brand. cheap 1 bah.


mechanics in the process welding the connection of the bullet.




my exhaust tip


successfully weld the tip to the exhaust pipe.



u hav been pimped. herald n myself

camwhorring summore



oh yea, my fren olso change his tabung n tip.

so overall my car performance is increase but not that much. Acceleration is good, a bit better than before, top speed no different. but the ride in my opinion, smooth. i tink aaa

So, a couple of days later i went to master car accessories at satok to install skirts. fiber glass material. cost me around,em rm300.


installing side skirts


my brand new front lip. still dirty and black in color. uncool


my new side skirts. also black in color which is uncool.


my new rear bumper. like owest, its uncool


all has been installed






so the next day i went for paint hunting with mr. herald also near 3rd mile. we bought 1 liter of green metallic (like my car) which the shop mix it according to the sample i gave them, i bottle of thinner, undercoat n clear spray. the plan is 2moro we start spraying the fiber. So below is some of the pix i took.


des : yoh, kena lantak adrian ku.mr. herald duin the side skirts.


total concentration. herald spraying the rear bumper

HAPPY MOTHER DAY!!!






Batu Kitang Treatment Plant Visit

we all spend a day in the Batu Kitang Treatment Plant to learn more about the process of purifying our daily water. accompany us is Mr. Dennis, Miss Lisa, Miss Sharon n Mr. Stanley. this is my 2nd trip so im quite used to the place.

1st, we all been allocated to a big room which is the presentation room if im not mistaken. A brief introduction bout the all the plants and their characteristic. a job well done to the speaker which is also the technician of the plant. well spoken and loud as well. like music to our ears

the guy behind the curtain


Fatah and Joel concentrating to the presentation plus all other students


So there are 4 plant in one big treatment plant. each plant can cater about (i forgot guys) 16 - 20 MLD. MLD stands for millions liter per Day. so the source if from sungai sarawak kiri. and theres also 4 intake pipes, all located throughout the embankment of the river. The presenter also explain briefly about the process which i will explain to all of u later on :)

After the presentation, with the free mineral water for our "bekal" off we go on our little journey. 1st we headed to the laboratory where all the magic of chemical and biological process happens. i cant explain any further coz me myself didn't noe a clue wat they do here. coz im not tat interested with chemistry.ahahha. bummer.



The laboratory. Student observe while im camwhoring.


So after our little visit to the small yet poisoners room, where headed to the 1st part of the process, which is coagualation process. Coagulation is basically the time tat we add chemicals to make all the "dirty things" bigger. so the common chemicals being used here in Malaysia esp Kuching is ALUM and soda ash.

so after that is the flocculation process. this is where the big this earlier is attach to another big things bcomes bigger things.aahhaa. how 2 explain neh?ahaha. then the modified water is off to sedimentation tank.


Everywhere i turn theres always him.

next is sedimentation. so in sedimentation, the bigger particle is gradually sink to the bottom of the tank by gravity. the tank is probably 3 - 5 meter deep and a hell longer than my house. haha. the ingredient here is weights to particles + gravity + time = cleaner water. After tiz is filtration

Filtration is nothing more than to filter up foreign object by passing to a porous medium such as sand, gravel etc. so nothing more to explain here.


me and Joel taking picture above the filtration tank.


i didn't show u more picture but next in line is the addition of chlorination to kill or to reduce the number of bacteria lepak inside the water. then the water is pumped into the clearwater well before distribute it to end user. the end.haha

this is the end of our journey at Batu Kitang Water Treatment Plant. merchandise are given to appreciate the support and guidance by Mr. Dennis. off we goo

yeah it was cool
