Missing That Familiar Sight

The buses are way unreliable.

I should have just gone to Putrajaya Central, instead of waiting for them at JPM.

The first RapidKL bus (the E5) finally arrived at 7.35am, 55 minutes later.

Tomorrow I'll just board either the E1 or the U42 bus, or the Metrobus.

All these made me think of fitting STELLAR with a lightweight NGV kit. So I can just drive daily without worry.

Missing him so much...

Wish List

I seem to have an endless wish list.

But I guess I try to list most of them.

For STELLAR the Mini, I wish he have a(n)

• Enkei Racing Wheel (he didn't have a spare tyre yet)
  
• Close Ratio Gear Kit
• Adjustable Camshaft Timing Set
• Race Cylinder Head
• Mini Minus Chassis
  
• RC40 Exhaust
• K&N Air Filter
  
• Oil Filter Opener
  
• Torque Wrench

For Nik (my Nikon D40), I wish he have a:

• 1:1 Macro Lens (must be a Nikkor AF-S)
  
• Very Long Telephoto Zoom (a Nikkor is a miracle, but an Opteka's fine)

For myself, I wish I have a:

• MP4 Player
• Nokia Communicator (any one of them)
  
• Nikon FM2
• House (yes, the big thing people call home)
• year 2000 up Peugeot 406 or year 2004 below Kia Optima

I counted a figure of 10k for STELLAR alone. So you can imagine if I can just call it a wish.

One thing at a time will do.

The Problem Car

STELLAR's steering is fully fitted. So I would say it's feels more secure now.

Only thing is, I know that the rubber cone is not so well performing, as it's fully compressed already. The front side is too sagging already, STELLAR looks awfully low! So a pair needs replacing.

And the front hub ball joints needs replacement too.

And interestingly, it exhibits almost a crosswind effect to him. And boy I am afraid sometimes.

All these done, I hope the alignment will be flawless.

Some more, the bodykit is sagging. I need to tie it up with at least, a heavy duty cable tie or something.

Driving STELLAR

I drive once a week now.

Last week it's on Friday. This week is probably the same too.

You know what? All the monotony of bus-hopping just disappeared, in one single day.

I founded out the cause of the cooling problem. It's the radiator cap. It's not protective enough anymore. I need to replace it, then see if it persists.

If it doesn't, then the problem is solved. Then I can go long distance again. To site, to holiday, to wherever.

Another thing is, the steering rack and hub ball joint needs attention too. I feel I must make a budget for those.

Or should I just swipe my Citibank? It seems all too easy short term, but in the end, Arrrrrghh!!!

Constantly

STELLAR successfully got his oil changed.

Afterwards he runs with a consistent temperature, and relieved I am.

Now, to worry about the 350rm steering rack. I was quoted 40++ for the labour.

Where to find the dough?

Afternoon, headed to Seremban.

Hot Hearted

STELLAR will need servicing anytime soon.

The engine is way warmer, nearing to being hot.

I suspect the oil has thinned out to the point of expiration.

And it's been more than 4 month already since the last oil change.

So obviously...
