Ha Ha .. I saw the pic which appears to be from home and the dirty hood. So I mistakenly thought you DIY.

Considering the amount of putty on it, it's a good decision to wrap instead of paint

After the wrap the exterior part is all done.

I have some plan for the car in the future. The plan are

-Mild camshaft 275 (not going to high cam
-lightweight crank pulley
-Adjustable cam ( can I juz use back the stock cam pulley if I change the camshaft?
-wira 1.6/1.8 full set brake & gsr full set (the evo brake pump still inside my house haven't use .ahahahahaha
-Short shifter
-Better tyre, either Re003 or advan fleva
-stainless steel extractor with heat wrap?

I also found some issue regarding the cam. When I ask the seller,he told me that 4g15 vdo camshaft is a little bit shorter compare to a 4g15 cab type and I need to add some washer at the coil pack area. I was like won't it effect the durability?

To me juz smoother & lighter accelarate. Alittle bit more power while overtake. I won't expect to gv me alot by juz fitting the camshaft juz overall better perfomance then now then is ok for me.

The seller say the camshaft is base on a 4g15 cab camshaft to design. So is a little bit longer(never know vdo & cab have different lenght of camshaft.
So now I juz doing more research. If really can't I juz give up on it.Hahahaha

i thought u gonna swap 4G92 MIVEC? :driver:
those mods @Izso can clarify coz he'd done all of it on his old 4G15 wira.

brakes if u still using 4g15 i think no need to upgrade to 1.6/1.8 or GSR. u'll brake lock very easy. just upgrade the rotors to slotted ones and use good pads.
tyres i'd still choose RE003 or can try RE004. singapore already got RE004. haha.
