huh? i always use V-power too, any1 knows anything about Mobil or Esso's F1 petrol? cause i dunno why but whenever i pump that petrol i feel a slight increase in response. or izzit just psychologically since theres the F1 word there? I forgot to add that whenever i pump V-power, the ignition occasionally chokes when i try to start it. is this the symptoms of stalling?

Next car i wanna buy is the Nissan 350Z......... Than i'll have both of my fav. JAP sportscars in my Garage
Like the R34 GTR V-SpecII also but think its too expensive and more importantly, requires way too much money to mod out............. Don't think its worth it

BM parts are easy to get becos there's a bundant of them on the road, so it's cheap..... Very different case from the UK spec Civic...... But still BMW parts are still way a bit expensive...... My SMG gearbox actuator cost 4.5k, but it's look like something RM800 pumps..... Not to mention the tiny sunroof clips easily cost RM100.......
