KK Family Trip.....Late Posting!!

Ok, now for a bit of non-car related posts. Well, went for family trip to KK. Just some sight-seeing, nothing much actually. And a bit of shopping sprees, well - just a bit upset couldn't find any car accessories shop nearby where I stayed.

May find some of my posting is a bit lame - sorry but at this time around, I'm not feeling very well for the past few days thanks to these uncertain weather condition. Just felt that I need to update my blogs with something....kan?

Arrived at KK LCCT - cheap tickets mahh. Notice my dad is behind me and my wife with her wide grin, kehkehkeh :P


This is Gaya Market and we also been to Pasar Filipina, damn the market (Tamu) is quite big and long, I would assume nearly 1km of stalls selling all those foods, stuffs, bags, cds, shirts, you name it. Got a sore leg after walking through the market....


And the next day, rent the hotel's van and went to Gunung Kinabalu, but not climbing it la....only went to the kaki gunung.....and the environment is quite chilly, felt quite fresh when you take a deep breath into your lungs. :P


Posing with my sisters....


Took a family picture at the kaki gunung.....


With my parents~ Luv this pic!


After that, went on to Kundasang, took a couple of pics too - the place is very very nice with all those trees, don't really feel like you're staying in Malaysia.....mind you with all those cool surroundings....hmmm....


Went on to Poring Hot Spring.....






On our way back, stopped by the roadside at Kundasang to buy some fresh fruits and vege.....


Camwhoring again....:P


That night, having dinner at the seafood's reataurant situated somewhere at the Waterfront (forgot the name already)


And the next day, shopping! Pic was taken outside Warisan Square's building.


Bluish seaview.....something you don't see everyday in Miri.....




Well, actually there are more pics to upload, but it will have taken me all day to resize and upload it, and in case you're wondering, yes we went to 1Borneo also.....I really wish there's this kind of shopping mall someday in Miri.....hmm....till then, will update again about my Chinese New Year celebration last week - stay tuned~ >_<

VIP or JDM style?

Done something to my rims - Well, not really what was in my mind at that time but I think it suits the looks of my ride currently.....these rims wasn't actually what I had in mind but due to budget constraint at that time, I was forced to buy this rims.....bought at Big Wheel, it's quite a steal for me actually - RM3700 came with Yokohama A-Drive tyres - I don't think I could find any other offer better. In case you're wondering, it's just a Singapore brand rims, SSW.....

Well after few weeks meddling with the rims I finally decided to change the looks of my rims dramatically - frankly I think the rims need to be "pimped" :P

So sent the rims to be sprayed in metallic black - Was quoted RM70 per piece, so a total of RM280 was spent - I would say I couldn't be more satisfied with the result -
the spray/paint/workmanship is
simply amazing, one could never tell whether my rims were originally bought like it is now.....



And.....in case you're wondering, this should be the rims that I would've bought - Was quoted RM6500 for the rims alone, with 18" in size - that's excluding postage/courier
fees from West M'sia.....


Not cost effective, you think? Well, think again dude - these rims although
18" in size, is much lighter than Taiwan made rims that you've typically seen - I dare say
it's even lighter than 16" rims with the tyre on! The brand is from SSR (Speed Star Racing)
and the model is Professor SP1.

And just for your info, I called this SSR - Sangat Sangat Ringan - These company
have the comparable reputation with Volk/Rays for producing forged and light sport rims.
