TVT Supercharged April 7, 2014 Share April 7, 2014 LOL..... now you know what will distract, attract tiko drivers, right? Why not use plain looking xmm at the booths, but stand a few chio ones further down near the petrol-tank-checks station? this way, drivers cant wait to get away from the passport checks and chiong to the petrol check points!!! Then its back to square-one mah......more drivers go to check-out the chio petrol checkers. So more cars and more jam loh.... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyfitms Twincharged April 7, 2014 Share April 7, 2014 Vpower racing in JB. Is it just hype or any noticeable benefit compared to normal 97? i wanted to try last week, but the shell i went into does not have vpower racing.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tireburner 3rd Gear April 7, 2014 Share April 7, 2014 Watched Border Patrol on Nat Geo where US CBP (Customs and Border Protection) officers are really on the ball and checked one vehicle at a time, where they use crow bars to pry open access panels to check for hard-to-reach areas. Thankfully ICA didn't follow their US counterparts, if not jams here will be even more horrendous. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces69 6th Gear April 7, 2014 Share April 7, 2014 You organising another kopi session huh ? Sure no prob. Where? Yishun, Woodlands or AMK? Sud we hv bfast, lunch or dinner? At airport departure immigration point, nowadays we can self-scan our passipok, why not build many drive-thru self-scan turnstile so that all sgp cars leaving woodland or tuas can chop chop curry pok and clear it fast? No need employ extra xmm to manually man the check points, cheaper + faster!! Cars not possible cos each car maybe got more than one person n if only one person scan his PP n the barrier open n car drive tru means all the others in the car were NOT scanned. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces69 6th Gear April 7, 2014 Share April 7, 2014 (edited) Vpower racing in JB. Is it just hype or any noticeable benefit compared to normal 97? i wanted to try last week, but the shell i went into does not have vpower racing.. I dun believe in VPower racing etc. Pay more for what? I only wish I can just pump cheap 95 RON better. I just pump rthe cheapest which is 97RON. I usually pump Petron n it works fine for my car. No need those "special" fuels. Since when does a BnB car need special petrol to run well?

Thankfully ICA didn't follow their US counterparts, if not jams here will be even more horrendous. Those through checks r not on all vehicles. Just some picked at random especially if ty look suspcious. Same like SG n MY customs which wil pick some cars at random to do a through check. KSL in jb got polishing service in their car park.... can try? I alrdy tried several Car Polishing services in JB n found all r crap. Charge abt RM150 but lousy quality. Looks like just a simple wash n wax job. I prefer those in SG. I tried a few charge abt S$60-70 n the quality is so much better.

To b honest I dun really polish/groom my car often. Now my car abt 8 yrs old so no need to groom lah. The last time I had it polished/groomed maybe >4 years ago. Even last time my COE Corona I think I had it groomed only once in its 10 years that I had it. Hahahaha. But I see here in MCF even got many groomers advertising for even less than that n some more. U just pick one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karoon Turbocharged April 8, 2014 Share April 8, 2014 Wont work la I think i got money i go to this no jam lane so many also think they got money and follow suit. - become JAM lane also . hahaha But if the normal jammed lane is FOC, and no jam lane pay a significant high fee, then may be it can become no jam lane. what could work is if they segregate the incoming causeway lanes to SG and Foreign cars, just like the 80s.... they should run a trial on this...
