The evolution of Skully: Part 3


felt that its quite empty and standard internally, decided to respray the centre dash and centre console to silver........ just to complement the ride.... installed an Apex'i Auto Timer.......

not too long after that, as i was busybodying checking out my friend's purchase of an Evo III Engine, stumbled across one pair of Nissan Skyline GTR-R33 front seats....... too good to be true, and too cheap to resist.... hahahaha..... can's stop myself....... finally bought it and the next thing is history..... installed it in my car........



GTR R33 Seats in my car... Comfy, stylish and great feel!!!

The evolution of Skully: Part 2

Rear view of my "standard ride"










Here are the view of my subwoofers.....
dunno why i opted for such a big boom box..... hahaha.....


the engine bay remained standard (except for the strut bar of course)

The evolution of Skully: Part 1

My ride in 2001


My ride, a 2001 Perodua Kenari, started off like other Kenari........ UGLY.... hahaha....... and my friends was asking me why i bought the ride....... it was like, "EEEEUUUU......... SO UGLY...."

Anyway, back to the evolution of my ride, codename Skully (does not have any close relationship with Gillian Anderson from X-Files)..... and u will know why i named her Skully.........

Stage 1:
Before i even picked up the car, the 15in K-Speed rims was waiting at Steven's shop, wrapped in Silverstone KTZ 165/45/15 tyres........ once my ride is ready, headed straight to the shop, but found out that the joker ordered the wrong PCD wheel for me (ordered a 143.3 instead of a 100)... have to wait.....

Weekend came....... went straight to Frankie's. Selected a few stuff, grabbed some from my previous Iswara configuration. Equipped her with 2 ROCKFORD FOSGATE 10" subwoofers, 2 ROCKFORD FOSGATE Amps, Panasonic CD Player (which i changed to a Pioneer DEF 7350 later).... got her some reflective silver tints....... and that's a start.....

waited for another week before her "Sports shoes" were replaced with a trendier K-Speed (ENKEI-RP01 look-a-like)


15 inch on a Kenari was RARE in 2001

CNY is over...... get back in shape

Think i munched too much and guzzled too much drinks during Chinese New Year. Its time to shape back......

Stepped back into the gym today......got fined RM 70 as i was absent for 6 months..... hahahah....since mid last year.... paid RM 140, which includes the fine and monthly fees.......

Eagerly, i stepped on the stationary cycle..... cycled for more than 25 minutes...... can really feel the heart is pumping hard and my sweat was like, burst pipe! hahahaha......... after some strectching exercise, continued on the routines......... had to start at a lower weight setting as it has been quite some time since i lifted those heavy buggers......... used to max out on the weights but decided to go on a slower pace...... hahahah......

was a good day work out..... din know why there are so many guys with the size like me in the gym nowadays....... my instructor Teddy was commenting.... i should come more often...... and regularly....... hahahha...... i really hoped so, provided i have the time......

anyway, back at home, took a shower, and leaped onto the bed for a short nap..... really pushing my body to the max today after a long break.......
