5K.

recently i bought a toyota 5K engine. its similar to 4K engine only it has larger bore thus creating a larger displacement.

5K Spec :
-Bore 80.5mm
-Stroke 73.0mm
-1486cc
4K Spec :
-Bore 75.0mm
-Stroke 73.0mm
-1290cc

The engine was delivered right to my door step by Vee Yew Cheong. thankyou bos.

this sticker came along with the engine and i dont know what it means. if anyone knows please do leave a comment.

Oldtimer Alignment

after bush n tyre replacement, I went to this oldtimer shop for wheel alignment. he did not use any electronics for alignment and the result are superb. this shop located at USJ 1 and many track cars usually come during the weekends getting their car ready for race.

pakai tayar tak smpai 1 tahun dah jadi cmnii.. sume lambat tukar bushing punya hal. nasibbaik la tayar 2nd murah rm35 each.

New Limbs and Bushings :D

after long awaited and enduring hearing the rattling dashboard, interior, and the car itself each time i drive through uneven roads and humps i finally get my hands on new sets of lower arms, tierods, and some other bushings.
it feels like hari raya comes early and it hurts my wallet real bad.
but its for my own comfort of driving and safety so safety comes first ! here's photo of my current undercarrage parts

here's new sets of lowerarm, tierod ends, stabilizer bush, and stuff..

no more rattling dashboard whenever I drive into bumps and holes.

New Shocks :D

first of all its Ramadhan meaning fasting month and i'd like to wish happy fasting to all the muslims who read this. may this Ramadhan be better and prosperous than the previous one. for few years i've been driving around in my KP without front shocks absorbers and all the undercarrage suspension bushing were worn out really bad which cause my car to sound like its gonna break apart each time i take a hit on uneven roads or bumps. i tried searching for KP OEM front shocks around but i ddnt manage to find any. i know they are sold somewhere here in malaysia i just hvnt found it yet. i got tired of searching and i did some research and found out that KP61 and AE82 shocks absorber has the same diameter but abit different in lengths which makes the AE82 shocks much shorter than KP61. here's some photo.
the shorter absorber is the AE82 and the other one is the KP61 shocks

since the AE82 shocks is much shorter so I placed a metal spacer for it to fit nicely inside the KP61 suspension struts. actually the metal spacer suppose to be custom but due to tight budget i bought 3/4 inch galvanized steel pipe joints as and used them as spacers so that AE82 shocks would fit.

so this is what it looks like after fitting AE82 shocks into KP61 struts.

Dimensions of both shocks :
AE82 Shocks
Length 1: 494 mm
Length 2: 336 mm
Diameter : 38mm

KP61 shocks
Length 1: 575 mm
Length 2: 376 mm
Diameter : 38mm
so to those who needed new front shocks for KP61 and fail to find it as i do this is the easiest solution and it only cost me rm160+ :D

Workshop Visit.

I went to Klang and visit my car, I found out that they haven't started repairing anything. its almost one month and they haven't start repairing. so i took back my car and cancel on repairing at the workshop and now I'm Looking for other workshop who can fix my car. Since I get back my car I swapped my current coil to Lucas Coil and my car throttle response increases plus less smoke odour on the exhaust.

Look at the gold coil ! hehehe

Jalan Jalan Halfcut.

Previously I had an accident and I'm looking for replacement parts. I'm looking for KP61 left tail lamp but all I found is the right 1. I must say IKI brand tail lamp easily faded and Koito has clearer lens compare to IKI and its long lasting too.

this are example of IKI tailamp faded. zzz and its Right side. i wanted left. haizz.

This is the thing I hate the most, Whenever I went to the chop shop I tend to buy other things than what I really need. For Example I need KP61 left tail lamp, but I found LUCAS Coil and I buy it. zzz Luckily it only cost me RM25, while other seller sell them for RM 60 - 80 each (condition Used). and I found Digital Meter, I don't know which car has this meter, some say nissan sunny. I thought of using this in my KP lol. I found the oil cooler at the chopshop its in good shape but I didn't buy it. Maybe I'll buy it later to give the looks for my KP.
