there are a few clubs in japan like caldina 24, u can do a search on
www.google.com and look for caldina 24, i do not understand japanese, but
looking at the way the upgrade their caldinas, i am very impressed.

coolznick bro...the Caldina is a sportwagon....like the Volvo V40 and the
latest V50....but from looking at it....you would normally need some time
to think which category of cars it falls into....unlike the volvo...one
look at it...you can easily say that it is a wagon.....Big Smile

Yup...the max speed on the meter is 180...3rd. gear already reached 180
liao...fuel cut already...cannot go somemore....I am looking to install a
fuel cut gadget....something like RSM or HKS system....and maybe
PIVOT...much cheaper...RSM looked nice but always "hanged"
wan...HKS....damn expensive....

I am also looking for a digital boost controller...BLITZ or HKS....but
second hand lah...then...can adjust the boost higher than the ori boost...

Also...turbo timer....boost meter...and so on...now...my car is stocks
nia...

But above all...my first priority is to get a customized bodykit
done....something very garang wan....like the Gialla kit on my Wish or
the GT kit on my former 350Z....
Cool

i will only do this when my other friend get his Caldina next
week....coz...his Caldina will be the guinea pig for the bodykit
measurement....Big Smile...

Yup....I do have a 350Z....full GT version bodykit....and runs on
Supercharge and Turbo charge....0-100 in 4.55 seconds....beautiful
car...but full of problems...sold liao....Smile

rick188 bro....am not sure how you judge good quality but I had installed
an alarm system from my friend shop....it's called Excalibur....find it
secured...and user friendly....$$$ not to high....about RM 1K...including
installation....same system outside selling RM 1200 easily....you may
want to check outside first....then...you message me lah if you want....

As for ICE....I am not very particular about ICE...but I had installed
Alpine component mid and tweets...Type R version....price about RM
950...+ installation....ouside selling RM 1100...

As for ICE HU....I currently using the ori HU that came with the car...CD
quality quite good but radio frequency very low lah....will be changing
to Kenwood DPX MP 4070 HU...2 DIN...CD/Cassette/MP3...price about RM
1200...+ installation....ouside cost RM 1300....without installation...+
installation should be around RM 1500...

Anyway bro...should you want to go there...just message me...we can go
together....as for the next TT...we will be announcing soon...will update
you...

260bhp turbo charged engine....average about RM 0.17-0.19 per
km....depending how is your driving method lor.....

My 350Z was sold for RM 300K...the only special version in
Malaysia...bought for RM 360K....lost 60K after 1 year nia....Dead

Yup...many mods to go...just managed to buy a set of Digital BLITZ Boost
controller...yahooo...only RM 400 nia...but second hand lah...looked very
new though....this time shiok liao...can adjust the boost liao...

thanks for the information bro, as for ICE, do you think it is advisable
for me to install DVD with LCD monitor, this is for my kids to watch when
we cruise around.

Me too, i would wany to install some meters, looking around for defi
meters, cost around RM 2400 excluding installation.

Let me know when is the next tt.

rick188 bro...me located in KL/S.Alam/Klang....in fact...very mobile
lah...my Caldin is Black...same as yours...black had always been my
favorite color when come to cars...

Bro...my Wish have got monitor and VCD player...but after 2.5
years...only watched max about 7-8 times nia...maybe...my kids said that
it's too small...therefore...not nice to watch....

Bro..it's your choice to install the DVD and monitor lor...but I
won't...i will only install a 2 DIN player...enough liao....

Yaa..Defi is nice looking...the one you mentioned comes in 3 types of
meter and panel....me won't be installing any meters...coz there is
already an original water temp meter. I actually wanted to install a
boost meter but since I already bought a digi boost contoller meter,
there is also a boost meter function that comes with it....so...save $$$
liao....no need buy....I had already installed a speed limiter gadget on
it...so...there won't be much mod anymore...

The next project I eagerly waiting for will be the "garang" type of
bodykit....but have to make sure that it don't looked too Ah Beng
lah...but I think that something like Gialla version (for Wish) will look
good on our Caldina leh....Cool
