  1. Dear MCF Pals Maybe a poll on the average driver's speed on the expressway will be good. So we know whether we are going too slow or too fast in this present day?
  2. When you switch lanes, do do it fast fast or slow slow? Poll under the assumption that checks done, coast clear, signal on.
  3. I gotta relate an incident which happened today to me on the TPE all the way to the CTE. Quite funny in certain ways, quite naughty of me in others .... but I found it amusing nonetheless. I was at a T-Junction in Tampines heading home for a nap at 2:00 pm. Just secured a contract from a school in Tampines so here I was heading into the TPE. Waiting to turn right on the road heading towards the entrance of the TPE when I saw this TOYOTA HIACE van come up behind me .... did I care , of course not. Right turn light came on and I went off at my normal speed. This Hiace van was revving behind me like SIAO .... tailgated me for about 100m before overtaking on the right and cut back in front of me .... yes I was on the left lane of a 2 lane road. I was going HUH ?? TRD Toyota HIACE van siah !! This must be a scene from 2FAST 2FURIOUS (PART 3 HIACE VAN) So, it was gonna be a long way back to AMK , and the CD music was LOVELY - BRING ME TO LIFE (EVANESCENCE). Certainly pumped me up .... so I decided to be naughty and just play with this 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS Hiace Van. On the entry of TPE , I just stayed behind him (punkass Malay driver) ... before anyone goes crying RACIAL PREJUDICE ... I am MALAY too lah. Once the highway opened up, I went down to 3rd and ZOOM ZOOM .... overtook him and cut back in front of him. He was in Lane 2. Now I never had anything bad intentions ... just trying to fill some boring drive back with someone who is game enough in a TRD-decorated Toyota HIACE. Wah !! He not happy .... he revved up and got to my backside (speed on my speedo 95 km/h) .... just what I was waiting for. As soon as he was close .... I revved up and sped away. As soon as I was about 150 meters away, I SLOWED down and waited for him. Traffic was quite bare. I could see him speeding up, his eyes intent on my TarzanBoy's backside. And again as soon as he got close , I sped off .... 150 meters (approx. I SLOWED again and waited for him. All this while, I was smiling and laughing to myself. This bugger must be driving his company van ... does he not know what he is up against ?? Did her ever think that he could outpace my TarzanBoy 323 ?? Again and again I played him over .... as soon as he got close .... I would just pull away. The look on his face via my rearview - . Just to add insult (naughty me) .... I wound down my windows as soon as we cleared some construction work nearing Punggol. And when he pulled close, I pulled away ... I stuck my hand out and gestured "FASTER FASTER FASTER". I know I sound like a BULLY but somebody gotta teach this kid a lesson .... his van aint no match for any car, so drive sensibly like you ARE indeed driving a VAN. No point trying to play with TARZANBOY lah or I will whip your punkass TRD-stickered VAN !! Wah he lagi bweh song .... as I see a middle finger come up from him from my rearview. I was laughing my balls off .... again I gestured FASTER FASTER !! All this was happening at 95 - 105 kph ONLY. Then I decided to be naughtier .... I saw a Mitsubishi Grandis hogging the right hand lane. I slowed down to 80 (hey I am in the middle lane u know) and the VAN came charging up. He then sverved to the right and tried a Montoya-style demon overtaking on LANE 1. A Toyota Hiace Van on LANE 1 .... can you imagine that . I looked inside , was given a middle finger ... I SMILED back and .... revved up and snugly held my speed beside the Grandis. Now he was stuck .... he had a Grandis in front of him and me beside him .... STUCK in Lane 1. I held my speed beside the Grandis letting the Grandis be at least half a body in front of me .... at 95 kph. He was totally stuck with much faster cars coming up behind and honking him Then I looked at him and gestured -> "YOUR VAN NOT FAST ENOUGH" all in hand language. "NOW LOOK AT MY CAR" - gave a cheeky laugh and then I just sped off into the distance. Was it over ... no I waited for him .. as I slowed down in the left lane behind a lorry. As he came up to the middle lane (took him ages) and overtook me , I looked in .... and he didnt even want to look at me ..... I let him pass , came up behind him , overtook on the right and cut back to the middle lane in front of him, waved him GOODBYE as I exited the TPE into the CTE. He didnt even want to look at me .... Boy that was fun ..... certainly filled up the long boring drive back. I know you may say I am a bully .... maybe I am just 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS .... only with a TRD HIACE Van of course. Sorry to other HIACE owners who may feel insulted by my comments. My apologies
  4. 2003 Econosport Sedans Comparison Test Introduction By Edmunds.com Editors Cheap cars that go fast. That's the premise behind every car in this test. It seems simple enough, but despite the fact that such a concept spawned the entire muscle car era of the 1960s, automakers are just now "rediscovering" the idea and once again building affordable cars that deliver serious performance. Unlike their ancestors, these modern-day hot rods sport half the cylinders, a third less weight and sophisticated computers to keep everything in check. Based on inexpensive economy cars, they're small in stature, but big on fun. Just last year we conducted this test with all the major players at the time and came away impressed with just how much performance you can get for around $20,000. Nissan's Sentra SE-R Spec V took first place for its blend of sizzling performance and a rock-bottom price. Barely a year later, competition in the segment has heated up thanks to the in-house tuning divisions of Dodge, Ford and Mazda. Dodge's Performance Vehicle Operations (PVO) took the aging Neon and transformed it into a turbocharged terror renamed the SRT-4. Ford's Special Vehicle Team (SVT) added two doors to its already hot Focus coupe to create the four-door SVT Focus. And finally, Mazda's Mazdaspeed division created the Mazdaspeed Proteg
  5. this is a fast one.....
  6. Was at McWell today and was suprised to see that NOS is available for installation. Anyway, I am just wondering having seen its extensive use in the movie "The Fast and The Furious" ..... what would it take to use NOS on your NA car. Specifically, if I wanna use NOS on my 323, what modifications would have to be made ? Cause logically, I dun think its just an add-on system .... What are the ill-effects on the engine in the long run besides piston wear ? But quite shiok hor ..... with NOS can really ZOOM ZOOM Advice needed.
  7. Hi, Has anyone used the "Blue Yel" product ? In particular the "fast wax". I could not find the english product info from their web page (www.blue-yel.nl). Anyone knows what "fast" mean ?

  9. Happen to see the pictures in one of the Subaru website. Just to share with you folks.
  10. I was on my way to fetch my wife (from a wedding) this evening....driving down Hougang Ave towards East Coast (wedding at Paramount), when I see a yellow EG6 at the traffic lights. I was caught behind a slow vehicle, so I never got to have a closer look, but I did spy an oversized tailpipe. Just where the new detour was (from Hougang to Eunos), a bunch of TP bikes had pulled over at the side of the road, with a tow truck as well (I wonder what kind of sting operation involves a tow truck)....so he slowed down, and as I was trying to catch up with him (overtaking the stupid lorry going at 30kmh on the left) I almost missed seeing them, but managed to keep my speed below 60 throughout the detour portion... I actually wanted to catch up through the bends at high speed....because there was no traffic in front of the lorry...only the Civic. The Civic driver was even more "kuai".. going at 50 or less. This allowed me to get infront of him at the junction with Airport Road. As it was late in the evening (about 9+), the traffic was relatively light along Eunos link , yet not that clear, requiring me to filter in order to pass the slower vehicles along the way. I had the civic behind me, and he decided to parallel me...maybe to see who I was ... I drove on....and as his lane came to a crawl, I was once again past him...but no sooner than I had increased my speed, when I spot a pair of headlights bearing down on me. And so I had a "bright" shadow behind me from opposite Ubi Driving Centre....all the way to Joo Chiat Place. One that kept speeding up and filtering a split second after I did (kinda like Peter Pan's shadow). Then.....as we stopped at the traffic junction, he decided to try the middle lane... because the vehicle in front of mine had decided not to go straight but to turn (without signalling...and the lane was not even meant for turning). Suddenly, the vehicle in front completed his lane change manouevre (there was a turning lane on the right), and I sped forward as the lights turned green. My car can hit almost 10s flat for the century sprint, and a stock Civic SIR can do it in about 7s, but I had the early jump. As I cleared 40kmh (within the yellow box), I noticed he had changed back to come up from behind me....and by the time I had hit 80 and wanted to change my gear to 3rd, he was along side me....and as I kept on flooring my accelerator, he pulled away from me (approx from 100-150 ) faster than a WRX would have (I have taken on a few...). As he passed me, I could here a special sound....above the VTEC that was already in full song. I think it was a supercharger (no BOV or Wastegate sounds). Damn....he was as fast as the Ferrari 355 I took on in the CTE..... just blistering speed and acceleration! The only thing that should have warned me about the car's potential.... a "Something" Racing logo across the bonnet. I didn't have a good look, but it was not Venom Speed! Fast car.... Very Fast Car

  13. Those who travel along Lim Chu Kang Rd abt 6.30am. U will see 1 silver sunny travelling quite fast.I chase hime b4. But near Ah Ma Keng, there's a sharp corner. Those who work ard there will know.There's a island at the centre of the rd.He corner tat bend at ard 90km/h.Damn fierce!After tat corner,I couldn't catch up wif him.Beware of him!
  14. Many times, when shoppers hunt for a car would always ask for the century spin time and seldom ask how fast the vehicle is able to stop. Generally is a car is able to do 0-100kmh in 10secs, it should be able to stop from 100-0km/h at half the lap time or much lesser. ie. less than 5secs. So what is yours? Do some test and post your results here : Starlet EP80 100-0km/h 3.3-3.5 secs (4 tries) Stock brakes
