The Couplehood Journey of a Distort Soul....

TopMark @ Honda City BJB404...

We need to sell our Honda City as we just made our booking for Toyota Wish. I've surveyed various 2nd Hand Car dealers but their offer is quite ridiculous. I went to Toyota TopMark on Saturday and they offered me RM54K. I haggle a bit later in the evening and by tomorrow morning they confirm that they are willing to take the car at RM55K. I immediately called Aiman and ask him to follow me to TopMark to conclude the deal. Actually it was quite sad for me to let go of our City due to the many fond memories with the car; our many vacations as well as Arief Milo stains all over the roof. The City have served us well. Goodbye TC 134 @ our Honda City and we can't wait to start our new journey with our Toyota Wish :-)

Little Caliphs, Putrajaya, Naza Motor, Nasim Peugeot and Chicken Chop...

It was raining earlier in the morning so I couldn't play tennis at Bangsar; I still went to Bangsar for breakfast though. To my surprise we still have players waiting for the rain to stop and I ended up staying there until 10am. We went to Little Caliphs at noon for the parents session. Arief decided to just sit outside with me playing with his PSP while Eliza went in and discuss with his teacher. The verdict; Arief is excellent in Maths and Hafazan but need to improve his reading skills and hygiene (tend to wipe with his clothes). His drawings is good too. We are really proud of Arief achievement in Little Caliphs :-)

We drove to Putrajaya Precint 11 for Fadzly & Azura lunch meet-up; we got lost along the way as I can't detect his house via my iPhone Google Maps. BTW Arief was sleeping during the short drive. I finally call Fadzly and request for the direction. We were not far off but as it was a new development the location is not updated in Google Maps. Arief was a bit cranky at first because he just woke up but after awhile he is back to his usual self; playing with his PSP while having lunch. My sister arrived half an hour later with Nasi Bukhara; more food to enjoy. It was a joyous gatherings and we even had a small celebration for Abg Long & Kak Yong on their 28th Wedding Anniversary :-)

We plan to check out Toyota Wish at Naza World but we make a pit-stop at Cyberjaya Community Club as Arief pooped. Arief was excited to check-out the new car and he was running all over the showroom. We managed to discuss with their sales representative on the many Wish available and really interested to buy the 2006 / 2007 model. On our way back we stopped at Nasim Peugeot and review the 308 Turbo. This car is extremely attractive as well and we are now undecided on our purchase :-)

We went to my sister house in Subang Permai for our dinner; home-made chicken chop @ western dinner. Arief was sleeping as he didn't sleep the whole day; pity as Ilyas and Irfan wanted to play with him during dinner. It was a very full  and delicious dinner with spaghetti, potatoes, garlic bread and chicken chop :-)

UOTT Cyberjaya...

This is the first TeamCity OUTT (UnOfficial Teh Tarik) Session that I attended for 2007. It was held at Hassan's Cyberjaya (in-front of MMU). I went alone this time as it was organized at night. I drove from Shah Alam at 8pm and used the NKVE, less hassle. As I was approaching Subang Jaya, the walkies begin receving communication. The PJ Gangz is currently convoying there and I managed to catch-up with them and joined their convoy of 12 cars. We arrive at Hassan's just in time with the trademark sirens and musical horns. I managed to catch-up with some old buddies there. The UOTT ended at around 10pm and it was free activities for everyone. I did checked out some of the other rides as well as watched Ah Fatt did his drifting abilities with his 1G Honda City. By 11pm, some of them drive-up to Genting but I decided to join a small convoy to Putrajaya. We stopped at the bridge and this viewpoint; organize our cars and took picts. It was not an easy task to place about 12 cars for the photo-shoot though and we finish at about 12.15am. As I have not taken any dinners, I bought burgers at the nearby stall at my house :-)

Honda Plant Visit...

We participate in the Teamcity Honda Plant Visit on 18th November 2006. Teamcity had scheduled for a convoy from Bukit Jalil that 18th morning but we decided to travel on our own from Shah Alam. We woke up at around 4.15am and we start our journey at around 5am. We stopped at RNR for Subuh prayers and then sped off to Alor Gajah. We arrived at 7.30am and manage to find a small road-side stall to have our morning breakfast, cheap and delicious.

The convoy arrive at around 8.30am and we were instructed to enter A-Famosa Resort for parking. It was quite hectic as other Honda Club Members (Jazz, Accord, Civic) were there as well. There were about 150 Honda cars at the Plant Visit, from Malaysia and our neighbouring Singapore too. Arief  got his share of the limelight as all the cameraman, official and un-official took his pictures. The event started at around 10am, registration and we received our door gifts. The usual speeched took place and lunch was served at noon. It was a "chinese style with a mix of italian cuisine" buffet.

The plant visit started at 1pm and we had to take a tour bus arranged by Honda Malaysia. We caught the glimpse of the new Honda Civic Mugen, limited to 100 units. We were briefed by the Honda Malaysia people during our factory visit and it was quite boring as they explained to us by reading from their notes. It was quite hot inside the plant and we were sweating profusely. At the end of the visit, we were given a cold towel to refresh and we manage to take a group photograph outside the plant lobby. We gather back at A-Famosa Resort and spend close to one-hour viewing the many Honda's. At the end, some of the TeamCity went back to KL but  we managed to organize a small convoy to explore Malacca town :-)

Berbuka in KESAS RnR...

I organized a Berbuka Session with TeamCity at Satay Kajang Awan Besar RnR KESAS. It was initally 8 cars but 6 was the final number; Whizac, Haiqal, Force, AJ04, Calvin and myself. We ordered 80 cucuk of satays. Three more TC came after berbuka and we had an enjoyable session. As usual, we did an amateur photo-shoot at the end and ruined the new tar. BTW really like Force Neon underlight :-)

Flood and Bumper...

As my mom is here in Shah Alam, we break-fast at my sis house in Seksyen 11. On Sunday evening, we went with my mom to see Aiman, and deliver his berbuka meal specially cooked by my mom. It was drizlling but it got heavier when we reached Bandar Tasik Permaisuri. As I was driving, I didn't notice the flood until it was too late and I just drove into it. The car can still drive as the flood was still minimal but the intial impact was too hard that it loosen my front mugen bumper. The worst part, the rubber below the engine and right wheel rubber arc came loose and I drag it all the way to Shah Alam. My HID fog lamp was filled with water as well. The damage; only RM20 to replace the hook. Mugen bumper need to be tighten up and paint; FOC by NextLevelCustomz. Clean-up the fog lamp at JE, FOC. The wheel rubber arc, going to KOSMOKARS to claim from warranty :-)

Teamcity OTT Gohtong Jaya...

Our first OTT with TeamCity and Arief first trip to Gohtong Jaya. Pity the moderator was absent and we couldn't register to become the official member. As the CITY had just reached 1K, I just use the Auto L to drive up Genting. TC-13 (the first TC Member that I met) suggest that I used Manual Shifting. I will, after my first service as I am still exploring the capabilities of our CITY. We saw a lot of fully modded CITY and met with a lot of new friends. Can't wait for the next OTT :-)

1. MUGEN ABS Bodykit
