[davidv00]

hi there,

any ideas where to do a PLC (Cheap Nice Good) spot welding around Sunway/PJ area?

thanks

davidv00,
i believe that there aren't many places locally that can execute proper spot welds. what they'll give you are tack welds instead. which you could do yourself. spend about 1k+ ringgit for a MIG welder and you can do the job yourself.

Try X-Factory (beside Millenium, behind GT Auto)

But things you should consider before doing.

- A spot welded or tack welded car is illegal and liable to be "sita" by JPJ. (because they have reason to suspect your car is "kereta sambung")

- During collision accident, car crumple zone is deleted. All the impact force is transfer into the passenger cabin.

- After accident, the car damage is much more severe than non welded and hi chance of chasis warping. (also because all the impact is transfered all over the car body chasis)

- Once welded, cannot be undone. Sure kantoi at puspakom checks.

then how about just spot weld a few points that has no issues on what had been described? :wavey:

davidv00,
what are you trying to accomplish? if it's chassis stiffness, might as well get an FIA based specification bolt-on rollcage. easy in, easy out.

i am trying to slightly stiff up my car chassis (proton you know la...) abit, during hard u-turn or cornering i can feel my rear strut bar is pulling the car apart kinda of sound.... scary le..

try look up those ultra company.ask them to install all the braces n strut that
they got in the catalog.u will feel the difference after it.i don't think spot weld
is a good idea for a street car like ur's david.
