Today they announced the new NAP(National Automotive Policy). Mostly are totally unbenificial to us and some will burden us too. I am really unhappy about only two of their policies.
No1: Vehicles 15 years and older will have to be tested annually for roadworthiness; provisions to be made for vintage cars.
Meaning we have to take our cars every year for inspection? ? It's just really troublesome where we drifters or racers who can only afford one car as a daily car and a drift/racing machine as mostly won't pass inspection because of the rollcage and stuff. This will encourage undertable money just to pass this blardy inspection. Nuff said...
No2: Import of used parts to stop in June 2011
If that was not bad enough they want to basically close all chop shops where most of us not so rich people get our parts. After this everything have to buy new which will be quite a hefty price. It would be fine if they lower the taxes on the new parts but they didn't. It would definitely burden the average to lower income group. One more thing, no more used parts=Insurance have to buy all new parts=Insurance premium goes up=even more burden!!!Damn

It's coming closer...
Recent days I have been uber busy over the wedding of my cousin and of course work. I have sold my D90 & everything, and also my SE C510. Liquidated my possessions to save up the money for the thing that is quite close now i would say.
This Saturday I will fly off to Singapore for the Asia Auto Salon held in Singapore Expo Hall 5 & will be back on Sunday night. There will be lots of well known performance parts manufacturers from all over the world e.g Tomei & Fujitsubo from Japan and Motec & Haltech from Aussie. Check it out here if you want to know more, http://www.asiaautosalon.com/
I was very touched over this video... have a look... It's called Love Without Talking.
Enjoy

S15 Fragile 6 Speed Gearbox
Just came back from Sepang Track Day and is uber tired. Yet again another S15 6 Speed Gearbox has died. It happened on my friends S15 while on the back straight changing from 3rd to 4th gear. The gear just popped out and suddenly a tak tak tak tak sound was heard. It wasn't a good sign and once back to the pits, found out it is the gearbox has finally died.
Overall it was a fun weekend full of thrills and spills. Can't wait to have my future car for a trackday like this....
