Cars!

today is spring cleaning day!!

my parents are cleaning up the front room and i'm slacking here typing this entry. heh heh heh. >_<"

well, not that i'm not helping, i've got work later at 5pm. and it sure was tiring yesterday. such a long day.

i had my driving lesson yesterday and i was happily driving along Ubi area when this ass-van driver stopped so close behind my car. my instructor saw the van and jammed brake to let him have a chance to hit! erm well, not exactly ethical but at least there's compensation. he didn't hit so when that ass-van driver went past, my instructor showed the driver, 'the finger'. then not happy lah. rolled down the window and started blasting curses away. these things happen so its not surprising to me at all.

but on a bright note!
i've really improved my clutch control. no more stalling of engines. now, i can accelerate without any problems in traffic!! woohoo!
but the problem is, that Nissan Sunny; it has really no acceleration power. no wonder with that inline 4-cylinder engine. my guess it produces around what 110hp. the power of one hundred and ten horses. i need a more powerful car! erm, Honda Civic anyone?

personally, i really like manual cars. it gives me the satisfying feeling when changing the gears and revving the engine. and its also relatively cheap to maintain a manual transmission car! all that's left is to improve the transmission gear ratio, get a new driveshaft to transfer all that power and improve the engine cooler. thinking of turbocharging. get a new, nice set of intercoolers, pistons; and i get a brand new air intake system!! and plus i will definitely get an ECU (Engine Control Unit). just yesterday i saw this Nissan Sunny with an ECU and GPS system! like, dude!! why a Nissan Sunny!?

or maybe simply just get a naturally-aspirated engine. which means, let's go BMW Z4 and Mercedes SLK!! but i guess i can't really afford the price tag. i'll go Japanese with Mitsubishi, Honda or Toyota. and in the mean time!! i would want to pass my Traffic Police test in July. hahahahahaha. =P

but see, a car is like a girl. you treat her well, she'll take care of you.
but she won't tell you if she has a problem, you'll have to investigate to find out.
its true! in my opinion that is....

man, i hate it when i'm doing nothing on a Saturday other than work.
じゃ!
