looks like a school science project.. hehe :biggrin:

where's the box cover? nothing written there?
Well im unable to dismantle the cover from its mounting.So,i just take out the circuit.But the cover looks same as the autoflip relay cover.Its located on the top of the evaporator and the wire goes to the aircond unit.So,i think its something related to aircond but dono whats its function....

Hi guys....
I just recently bought this AE92...before this using KE70.
Now after using AE92...im in love with it because its more powerfull than my KE70.
I would like to convert it for turbo or supercharger...but for now no money :biggrin:
So for now...i wish to change the look of my car for interior and outerior.
I would like to fix a Double Din player with GPS but dono what kind of brand will suit for the dashboard.Is DLAA brand could be fixed firmly on the dashboard?
And i wish to add some bodykit such as skirtings and spoiler....what kind of bodykit would suits for my car?
Any other modification or suggestion????
I'd vote a conversion, maybe the levin 92 conversion for your front?

Haha go put a big big GT wing and canards everywhere so your car will have 5000 yeng points. Spoilers on a street driven FWD cars... :banghead:

Cromax mirrors are Japanese spec'd mirrors, usually brown/bronze. Other than color I have no idea what else is the difference than normal glass :rofl:

The function of Ionizer clean ace is to filtered the air in the cabin to be free from dusts and smells i.e cigarette smoke..ideal for smokers.If non smokers also ok coz it makes air in the cabin more healtier...my 2 kupang knowledge

When the car parked a bit tilted to up or down at the front side,sometimes the car cannot start.

I suspect there is something wrong with your carb.. ( question 1&3 )
Do a proper tune up on the carb and see any difference.. I had the same problem like you before, after speeding or accelerating hard and lift off the accel quickly, RPM will drop down to around 600RPM and going to die.. Also when I'm taking off at a traffic light ( normal speed ), the engine would die off and the RPM will drop to 600RPM, sometimes lower..

All I did was find a good mech to tune my carb properly and everything was smooth, even my engine sounds quieter.. my previous mech didnt do the timing and carb adjustments properly, so its important to find a good mech..

Sorry cant help with question 2..

well..just need u guys opinion or idea..how to do CAI on this setup....wat appear in my mind is to make a custom box...jack a bit front bonet so cold air do coming(water can get inside..gosshhh!!),make a 'super scoop'(backward hood scoop like muscle car)placing on top the filter like ninja do......or just have a hose on it like the pic attach....

CAr: any carb engines using this method/setup...
