Mugen NON-power!
2007-08-07 17:59:00
The Mugen Civic S.I for the US market is going to debut. By right, I should feel sorry for the Asian region, we do not have this uniquely tuned, exclusive VTEC machine. WRONG! After studying the specs of the Mugen Civ ic, i was shocked to realise it is actual ly a below par version of the type R available in South east Asia! In fact, even the VTEC engine type used in the Mugen version is weaker than the type R! Ok follow ...

Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2007- Sedan on steroids
2007-08-04 21:35:00
Sorry Paul, I decided to cover the new Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0 after all. *grin* It was one of those days. Didn’t fe el like doing anything or going anywhere.  Popped by Toyota to have coffee with my ex-colleagu e and mentor. “Philip, the new lancer is out. Go  take a look” I thought, sure, just another 1.6 SOHC crap. So I went down for a peek. Holy Crap. If my cameraphone is not lying  to me, it looks like the freaking yr 2000 Galant 2.0 VR model. Honestly though, can’t say that i&# 8217;m impressed with the styling. It dos n’t look original. I just thank god the guys in charge of Proton weren’t involved in naming the new lancer or it would have been called ‘Galant ...

“I drift not because it is a quicker way around a corner, but the most exciting way.” So said Keiichi Tsuchiya, the man that started the Initial D, TFF3 Tokyo Drift craze. Check out his crazy video over HERE *wipes away a tear* Sometimes, a video speaks a thousand word s.

What the hell is WP text ads?
2007-08-03 17:59:00
Ok so I am not talking about auto-related stuff today but something new in the market called WP text ads. “Philip, we come all the way from U SA/Australia/ name your country to see your auto stuff , not listen to IT geek topics!” WAIT LAH. This topic could change the way  you advertise your WRX online. There, i mentioned a performance vehicle. May I have your attention now? Ok lets say you have a blog about performance cars. Lets call it enginestartbutton.org. Haha. You wish you had a sugar daddy to give you some cash for ...

Make your RX-8 purrr with AUTOEXE & Rotrex
2007-08-01 20:00:00
This post is exclusively for the RX-8 boys. Rotary nuts are welcome as well. Alright. Having driven away the TRD, Muge n, and Ralliart wannabes, lets focus on t he topic today, students. How do you make your RX-8 stand out from models of the same breed? Lets look at an engine upgrade 1st. 13B-M SP naturally aspirated engines aren’t exactly gonna turn a lot of heads. How about some extra meat with that naturally aspirated engine? May i suggest the Rotrex supercharger kit  for RX-8. Rotrex is one of the leaders i n forced induction systems for the aftermarket sector. Ok la h, layman terms, supercharger. A supercharger is basically a strong fan ...
