Auto City Carnival (part2)

Finally, the piece de resistance, Soon's masterfully crafted DTM lookalike Alfa Romeo 156 which looked every bit the part along with Dekra stickers and the works! In the pic also is the man himself... Mr. Hyper Custom... Ah Soon~! Look at him beaming all over... But dun ask me why he's grabbing his balls :P

The ever supportive Toms Stickers were present and helped install some eleventh hour decals.

Even the lovely beauties were attracted by the winking Alfa that they couldn't resist raring their rears to it. Soon got some lovely pics of them and some with him as well. Lucky b@stard!

The Alfa clinched the first prize and Soon returned home with the Champion trophy that night. Congratulations and all the best with the next project Soon~!!!

Cheers~!!!

Vios - Refurbished!

Soon has completed another "salivacious" car and its the ever popular Toyota Vios brought in by Joven's buddy. The car came kitted with a horrendous bumper and the full of gaps.

Soon brought upon himself to resolve the gap issues and satisfy his customer's requirements.

The bumper was re-made and most panels were remolded to close up all the "in-between" gaps.

Soon put in the final piece, the number plate, and the Vios was good to go. All this was of course brought to you by Hyper Racing with Soon's ever diligent craftsmanship.
After resolving most outstanding jobs, we were relieved and refreshed to take on a night's partying. It being Soon's birthday and all... We went to Khun Thai for wonderful thai delights.
Where the three stooges celebrated their birthdays together. The cake was specially made for us by our Northern Touge baker buddy, Sean.

Although stuffed, the festivities had to go on. So we continued at our usual drinking spot, d'Oasis. A few calls were made and all our buddies arrived... With Kenny being tardy, which he duely paid for the party!
Soon was feeling awefully artistic and decided to garble us a few tunes. Tall, dark and hairy Soon quickly gathered a flock of beautiful fans.

With an exceptionally affectionate individual taking to his broad shoulders! Hahaha...
An awesome end to a beautiful day. Cheers all!

Ya Would If Ya Could

As I'd promised, further updates are in order after the month long slow down in my blogging. Without further ado, I'll kick off our list of activities that you know ya would if ya could!

Leng got us a sweet deal to celebrate in a VIP room at a friend's joint. The place was huge with awesome facilities. Everyone was hyped up for the celebration... But who's that in the background?
Being the ever dedicated mech and workaholic, Fer was using the free internet access to search out some tech specs whilst we partied outside.

Kai Xing was having a ball on stage along with our dancer for the night...

Mr. Daniel "the horny" Civic!Cake cutting is always warranted no matter the location, and being the dedicated people us Northern Touge kakis are, we even included our sponsors list in this pic.

Leng was our silvertongue for the night... This dude could belt it out all night and still keep his voice! Kudos buddy!

During the CNY holidays, Soon had already opened shop to kit an Innova as his initial customer depsite the festivities.

Beautiful job done... Note the red crackers still on the ground as part of the Chinese festive tradition.

A spoiler was later added to complete the look.

Soon was still doing final checks on fit and finish as we were closing up. Diligence ultimate!

On the fourth day a bunch of us decided to have an auspicious touge + makan2 trip in the afternoon. As usual, we met up at Relau Shell, whom graciously allowed us to park and pose for some pics.

We then pushed off for the first stop at the peak of Jln Tun Sardon where we met up with an old friend from Balik Pulau (Blue KE70) and to get some refreshments and "jeruk" (pickled fruits).

We then traversed Balik Pulau and on to Teluk Bahang, through all the beautiful scenery and ending up at the Tropical Fruit Farm for some ice kacang and rojak. Plus, the scene there was awesome and the atmosphere serene.

After a refreshingly relaxed pit stop, the gang continued downward to the Teluk Bahang dam for a photo op.

It was a bright and sunny day out so I thought WTH, why not take a silhouette pic with all the beaut water and scenery surrounding us.

We ended the trip with Daniel (Civic), Soon (Wira GSR), Ewejin (Satria GSR), and Kenny (Wira 4G91) going for a cooling dip in the beach just down the road. Leng (KE70) and Pin (Wira 4G91) traversing back through the Balik Pulau way, and Fer, Joven (Wira GSR), and myself going for a light dinner before leaving for home.

.

An awesome end to an awesome Chinese New Year. I'm now back in the office... So happy working all! Cheers!

Soon Soon Bodykits

Ah Soon is officially in business and taking names... He'll be operating out of Hyper Racing located at Sunway Tunas in the Bayan Baru area. Here's pics of some of his handiwork...

Pak Li's Perdana widebody conversion.
Philip's beaut Toyota Corolla LE...

Along with all round skirts.

Daniel's low down monster.. Custom fabricated with some creativitiy and loads of passion.

Here's some earlier work which is a massive... and I do mean Massive Fiat.

Fer's Evo III with monster I/C mod fitting.

Soon's personal ride going through a mid-life crisis. Changing from Evo to Scooby.

And the man himself at work. Check out the diligence.

And if you're thinking this dude is outta touch, check out his latest project car. An Alfa Romeo 166 widebody with full bumper conversions.
And trust me, those tailpipes not only look great but sound awesome.

Feel free to ring him up at 012-5731161 for free consultation on your next autoshow exotica.

Wading through some CRD Multigrade

It's the festive season and activities (especially automotive induced ones) have ground down to almost a halt with everyone beautifying and keeping their rides in check for the festive season.

I've multiple parties asking about the sudden slowing down in my blog, and I'm glad to say that nothing much has changed, only that upgrading works have been going on and everyone is still progressing in their careers and automotive wise.

One such tale is that Hyper Racing has incorporated and providing bodykit services. From skirts to wings, bumpers to aero installs, and minor modification jobs to full fibre fantasy project cars. All fibre works will be done by Ah Soon (formerly from RABK, then at Mansion II), whom is already reknown for his craftsmanship and dedication to completing kits to your fulfilment.

There will be some more changes, so watch this spot for highlights after the Chinese New Year.

Inaugural TT & T session

Northern Touge had our first Teh Tarik and Touge session on the 1st of January 2010~!!! We all met up at Goodall cafe opposite for some good fare.
I arrived albeit a little tardy and they'd all makan'd liao...

Everyone was having a good time chatting over drinks and burning time.

As the touge session grew closer, more kakis joined in and we had both tables filled up with another group already at the meeting point.

We pushed off and had a nice cruise around to check things out and eventually headed up the touge for some thrills and spills. I had such a good time I'd forgot to even take pics of the cars!

A good start to a new year I'd say.

Cheers all!

Of the Black Bitch and Doughnuts

The Hairy One's (Ah Soon) Black Bitch had been MIA for some time so I popped on over to check up on him just to see if all's well. What came to me was a half empty engine bay...

And a disassembled tranny (transmission/gearbox) laying sprawled across the shopfloor.

Soon did a DIY gearbox bearing swap! So proud of him! Upon completing the process, where else to better test the fittings than at the T_ _G_.... C'mon, you guys know where :P

All's well and fine and Soon was brimming from ear to ear.

Something completely irrelevant: I was at Pranging meeting up with secondary school friends last weekend and I came across this doughnut shop called Bloggers! I hadn't had the chance to try it out yet since we were passing it on our way back from lunch.
This place would definitely be a place I'd like to visit some time. We're too full of Big Apple and Krispy Kremes :(

Pic with Soon's "Scooby"

I went to meet Soon after work yesterday to see how his Blackie was doing and I'm pleased to say he's done it again! This dude has excellent craftsmanship and loads of patience to finely grind out all the rough edges.
Check out all the angles and fins on his new bumper.
Here's a closer look at the unit.

I just love how he manages to fit everything and actually make them jive!

A frontal shot of the upcoming touge monster.

Oh! And just a mind bender for you, this is a pic of Ray's meter whilst he was hot lapping. See anything wrong? We were in fifth gear.

He still managed to top out champ in his class with this kinda gearing!!! Go figure!
