  1. Anyone knows which workshop does this service and how much does it cost? The screeching is damn irritating.
  2. Sharp-eyed speedsters who slam on the brakes when they spot a speed camera may soon not escape a ticket, if a new speed enforcement system due to go on trial is eventually implemented. The "average speed enforcement system", according to tender documents the police put up on the Government electronic procurement portal on Dec 19, will measure vehicle speeds over a distance to nab speeding motorists. This means that errant motorists cannot slow down just before or speed up right after speed cameras to evade the law, as they do now with the "point-based static speed enforcement system". The new system will be tested out along the Pan-Island Expressway and Changi Coast Road for at least a month, according to the tender documents. Changi Coast Road, in particular, is a well-known black spot. In May last year, a cyclist was killed after being hit by a lorry, which only came to a halt about 200m away, according to reports. According to the tender documents, the police noted that other jurisdictions have in recent years started implementing speed enforcement systems that measure the average speed of vehicles over a predefined distance. For example, several Australian states have implemented these since 2001. In New South Wales, there are 25 point-to-point speed cameras installed along the various highways specifically targeting heavy vehicles. "(The Singapore Police Force) intends to conduct a trial to evaluate the suitability of such systems for implementation in Singapore," the tender documents said. The average speed enforcement system works by recording the time a vehicle takes to travel between two points to calculate its average speed. Speed detectors placed at the start and end points - to be determined in consultation with the Land Transport Authority - will record the timestamp and vehicle licence plates. Speed limits here range from 40kmh on smaller roads to 90kmh on expressways. In the last three years, the number of speeding violations here has surged. Between January and November last year, the Traffic Police booked nearly 225,000 motorists for speeding - a daily average of 673 offences. In 2011, the figure for the whole year was 225,500, or 617 daily, compared to 205,000 cases in 2010. Over the years, the police have deployed speed cameras at more locations. In 2008, there were speed cameras along 38 roads. This has risen to 53 roads now. Red-light camera system to go digital? In a separate tender issued last month, the Traffic Police also called for the implementation of a "Digital Traffic Red Light System". The new system must be able to capture and store digital images of motorists who beat red lights. These will then be sent to a backend computer system to be used as evidence, according to tender documents. Currently, the red-light camera systems here still use film. Just last week, a video clip of a motorcyclist hitting a woman pedestrian after beating a red light along Woodlands Avenue 6 went viral online. The footage was captured on the in-car camera of a motorist. Last year, there were 16,442 red-light violations between January and November. And in the previous year, there were 17,490 such cases, a shade higher than the 17,180 in 2010. Source: http://www.todayonline.com/Hotnews/EDC1301...s-on-speedsters

  4. 1. Ok, forget about those that have a personal Blog to showcase themselves . This is done for very obvious reasons . 2. Do you feel safe to put your photos (your face) with your car or even with your family members and published it in a public Forum? I feel one either need guts or a showmanship gene to do it willingly . For me, I treasure my privacy more. Regards,
  5. Make way for private car ads He gets $100 a month for putting these stickers on car HIS car gets a lot of stares from other road-users - it is an advertisement on wheels Mr Franco Lim, 29, who is self-employed, took up the offer to become a 'Rendriver' and his red Toyota is now adorned with gigantic stickers. He recently saw fliers from Renvertising, a new advertising company, offering to supplement the rising costs of owning a car in Singapore. He gets $100 a month from the company to flaunt its promotional stickers on the side of his car. While advertisements are common on buses and taxis, Renvertising has its eye on the untapped market of private cars. Those who sign up must travel a minimum of 500km a month. Asked if he was concerned about other people's reactions, Mr Lim would only say: 'I don't know what they are thinking when they stare at me.' Still, he is thrilled with his car's new look. He told The New Paper he liked the idea so much that he would consider advertising his own clothing business on his car in future. And far from thinking that it looks like a taxi, his friends and family commented that the decorations make his Toyota look like a 'flashy sports car'. Other Rendrivers contacted by The New Paper said their initial apprehension about a garish design on their cars was misplaced. The family of foreman Ng Kheng Leong, 51, was concerned that the stickers would damage the paint of his new car. His daughter, Ms Cindy Ng, 24, said the company assured them that it uses 'high-quality stickers that would not cause damage'. 'We could approve the design first, and it turned out looking quite funky,' she said. Joining the scheme has enabled Mr Lim to cut his monthly $200 fuel costs by almost half. Student Celia Lim, 25, is also happy to defray her fuel costs by allowing advertising on her car. 'Petrol prices are getting so expensive. It is a great way to help out with the bills,' she said. Mr Jeff Peh, 24, one of Renvertising's three partners, said its original goal was to cater to the needs of drivers. The three-month-old company currently offers only two choices of advertisement - one for itself and the other for a client. It has recruited about 130 drivers so far.
  6. Read today edition of The New Paper at page 14, reported that some cars owners are placing their photos on the car body. (see attachment photos). One even place a picture of a cat to prevent bird droppings. Not a bad ideal indeed. But will the bird understand ? BTW can anyone enlighten whether one could place pictures on it own vehicle. For advertising, we need to get permission. There should be some kind of control here or we will see more & more wild pictures on the car body. I did see quite a lot of cars with company wed site appear on the rear bumper.
  7. Hi all, Can some expert(s) list down the GENUINE mods (those that REALLY increase performance) we need to do before putting in a piggyback ECU and tuning please? So far, this is what I have been told works: (1) Change to a good performance exhaust system (2) Change to a lightened flywheel & clutch system (3) Change to a lightened crank pulley Anything else to add to the list? I was told that the following things that people commonly do, does nothing substantial for performance: (A) Cold air intake (B) Air charger © Grounding Anything else to add to this list? Thanks!
  8. http://www.sgcarmart.com/main/info-2ENL23oE-501.html As per the title... I've went down to the yard to see the car. It has 17" Rims that is slightly damaged. Also the car seems like it has been involved in a minor frontal collision that one side of the bonnet seems to have curved a little upwards. Also the front bumper is slightly dented with the radiator inside slightly bended & cracked.
  9. I have seen quite a few cars on the road with the p-plates placed upside down. I think it was done deliberately as both the front and back plates were placed the same (wrong)way. What are the drivers trying to show? What will be the penalty if stopped by police? Comments anyone?
  10. Have borrowed a second super fuel max. Need some advice on the orientation when putting it in line with the first. Lets say the first is clamped over the fuel line with North on top and south at bottom, would the second one straight after that be South on top and north at the bottom. ........because putting them close to each other, if they are both north on top, they will repel. thks
