Hi All,

Great to know this forum and all the cool people with great info here :hyper:

I have been slowly kitting up my roc now and it has been about 9 months since I owned the car (Bought 2nd Hand from a local car dealer)

Sharing some pics over the next post on how the ride transformed into what it is today :vibes:

Cheers~

More pics loaded for the slow steps I have taken so far.... :)

The once very OEM look car felt like she needed some attention on the roads :hyper:

The last portion of remaining OEM until I did a base dyno run to see the OEM results.....not very appetizing though :cry:

Image

Slapped on some stickers as well while in the midst of getting the car done up internally and externally as well

Image

Image

Popped out the engine to re-look into it and clean every single possible part and also replace all parts that are due including enhancing them :)

Very nice, engine stripped out and rebuilt. I like it.
How much availability of tuning parts is available in Singapore with so expensive? I see you have your hands on some nice parts so it can't be too bad.
I have found a MTM dealer not too far from my home i will visit when i get back from work in couple of month. No engine rebuild, but hope fully a reprogrammed ECU.

Keep the good work and post more pictures.

Tuning in Singapore is not overpriced. Availabilty of parts are minimal and usually shipped over from overseas. But consolation is there is local dustributor for some parts which makes it easier.

All the best in your ECU programming. It's pure joy when done :)
