Used tissue paper? Thought girls should be more conscious about hygiene and keeping stuff clean?

 

I'm quite tall, while my mum (2nd driver) is very short. Everytime she drive, the seat is adjusted so d**m near the wheel. sigh.... And, worse, she even put those decades old pillow on the seat just to support her butt, cos' she can't see the front of the car clearly.

hi, u mean "baby size" racing seat??

[Genie47]

Have. Recaro has child seats that are like racing seats. Damn ex but damn comfortable. Can start the young very early on racing.

[Emperor]

I saw the seats, really really cool.....there's a dashboard console by fisher price where you can fit it to the back of the driver seat giving the child the feel of driving!!

haiz...

thanks to steam,,,

finish sericing liao,,,

at least now my car is healthy

but still need some amendment

below are some stuff tat need to do fix...

 

1.timing belt,

2.engine gasket,

3.distributor,

4.clutch,

 

gonna cost mi $800 in total!!!

[Genie47]

Are these items identified to be at fault or old?

 

1. Don't screw around with timing belt. If you don't know when was the last time it was changed, change it now.

2. Engine gasket is OK. As long as you don't encounter leaks resulting in you topping up oil all the time. Actually as long as gasket don't leak, don't touch it. Sometimes, you fit in a new gasket and it leaks.

3. The Dizzy upgrade will be good if you still have the mechanical pickup type. Worth the investment. Why, the mechanical pickup type will need you to replace the brushes at every oil change interval.

4. Clutch is subjective. If you feel loss of power or need very high revvs just to move off or all of a sudden the car goes high revvs then low with a corresponding jerk in propulsion, change it. If not, just leave it.

[Kazuo]

changing engine gasket is considered half overhaul already right?

 

How much does it cost?

[Starletgt]

Nope not really.... changing engine gasket with labour is around $280 to $300.Top overhall means changing the seals and such will cost more then that.

[Rodmansakura]

todae jus bought a 2nd hand front stunt bar for $40...

tink maybe next important upgrade is my suspension b4 PROJECT REBORN...

if everyting goes on smoothly..
