My Review...

it is seem that after meeting the X8 gang members and their ride,i concluded that Jyu is still a loooooong way from completion's process... its so many things yet to be done and installed... looking back from the first day i bought my car thus the project begin,i would say that the progress so far is merely around 50 to 60 percent...this will continue to be a work in progress hehe...

Powervehicle Run!

and crash ;(

Running In N Uphills Night!

first of all i would like to credit this post to Lan and Ipin for helping me with Jyu,without both u guys,none of this is possible...u guys are the "Freedoms" Crew hehe..

Friday,at first the deal was only 2 cars that be goin to the City Of Entertainment,Gaban S14 and me..11pm we met up at shell near the UIA, only to find out there 5 more car will be joining us..making the total of 7 cars that night..

wise sports wheels and kits

the jzx80

after the long wait,all other members have arrived,we left Shell around 1a.m,the guys choose to follow the old route that lead to the place were heading

here a short clip of me chasing gaban..credit to Lan for recording..the route was challenging,as it is narrow and no lamp post making it hard to see,one small mistake,off to cliff u go..but the best thing about it,there's no oncoming traffic at that hours...Gaban and me are on the second group becoz were aren't familiar with road...

there were many cars on the uphill,so we have to be extra careful..2a.m we arrived at the City Of Entertainment...
overall review of the car,the power is definitely there despite the white smoke continuesly coming out from the exhaust,some problem with the handling, brake and spotlight not working..im really satisfied with the outcome,still adapting becoz the last time i was there,the car was Ke70 with 4age engine..now chasing a sr20det isnt that hard anymore hehehe...

cooling down the engine before we go home...

the time is almost 3a.m and its time get back...on the way down,one of our members involved in a crash sending his car to a total lost status..upon his request i will not post the picture of the car...although the concrete wall kills his car but it sure does save his life,otherwise he will be down in the pit...luckly he survived and vows to rebuild another chassis from the silvia series hehe...

waiting in the dark for the tow truck to come,Hooters rock anyway hahahaha

7a.m i arrived home,straight to bed..only to wake up at 4p.m..
its gonna be while before the next uphill adventure...
