Medyo car related naman, I think: any tips on those automatic parking card dispenser things? Yung pipindutin yung button. Di ko kasi abot (short arms). Minsan kahit dikit na yung side mirror sa machine di pa rin abot, pag lumayo naman para bumaba ang awkward naman. 

ako pinapaabot ko sa guard hahahaha

[Boxedking]

ako pinapaabot ko sa guard hahahaha

Haha! I can relate! Sakin naman, pagpress ko sa pindutan, nalaglag yun card noong kukunin ko na. Tapos nakadikit talaga tsikot kaya no chance na makababa. Ayun, tinawag ko si manong guard sabay pinaabot ko yun nalaglag na card.

put that selfie stick to use!

problema paglabas ng ticket hirap din abutin! 


ako pag weekday i prefer riding public transpo, ganon din naman - sasakit din ulo ko if i get stuck in traffic. so might as well sit back and relax. pero pag maluwag, game lang! 


what i don't understand sa pinoy is kapag may oto ka, everyone wants to ride with you, nalilimutan nila pwede maglakad or commute going to their destination. tipo bang "pre pasabay hanggang labasan" at madalas pag sumama isa, sama lahat.

when i'm walking, i'm walking all the way unless someone offers me a ride, then i will decide if i want to ride or go my merry way.

problema ko to noon mahilig mag pasabay si misis minsan apat sa likod ayaw maniwala na bawal ang over loading. sinusundo ko kasi minsan night duty si misis eh may mga nakikisabay. nung una okay lang pero madalas inaantay talaga si misis para makisabay saakin. nag give out ang rear shocks ko at nag bottom out ang naging solusyon nag pa lowered ako. at nag palit ng gas type na shock para matagtag at hindi tumitingala ang oto ko. hehe now maximum of two medium built passengers lang ang pwede kong isakay sa likod hehe wala siya magagawa dahil sasayad ako hehe

mga car club bros, pag nagparehistro ba, kailangan ang original copy ng OR/CR ko? pwede bang photocopy lang dala ko?

pwede photocopy lang...in my case it's all i have 



@ mammonchipz

bad trip yan bro. i always tell people na gusto ioverload oto ko na apat ang pinto ng sedan, meaning it was built
primarily for a maximum of 4 people. yung mga ads showing 5 people seated can be done but at the expense of accelerated
wear on the suspension, which of course wapakels ang mga nakikisabay.

pero sa quezon, ang anim kasya sa tricycle!!!

wala eh ganun talaga mahirap din tumaggi talaga kapag sinasabi ko nag aaway kami. sabi ko nga noon sa susunod na bili ko ng kotse eh pick up na kahit buong department nila isama pa niya at mag tayuan sila sa likod ng truck bed okay lang haha . for now okay na hehe dalawa lang talaga sa likod pwede tatlo pero mga small built lang talaga na tao. trade off lang is matagtag at lagi akong siyete sa mga ramp at humps.

i pass. but if the Aurelio is there. i just might drop by to fully check it out in person.

[mammonchipz]

gusto ko din makita si aurelio pero sayang sana nilagyan nalang nila ng V8 or V6 medyo kulang ang 4 cylinder eh parang di bagay dun sa design hehe well baka its just me

[lockzackary]

guys may nakakuha na ba sa inyo ng bagong plaka since the advent of this 'no plate no travel policy'?
may kasama bang stickers ung plates?

[Shred_22]

Guys tanong naman madali lang ba mag drive papuntang baler? pinaka malayo kong drive so far bagac, bataan from Valenzuela sa north tapos sa south from valenzuela to paranaque. baguio kaya kaya ko narin?

[fizz450_03]

I don't know ha.

I understand his Chapman-esque philosophy of a light weight chassis, and a small but powerful motor. But let's
face it - a 4G63 fully done to match the power of current supercars can and has been done. the problem is how
reliable will it be on the street, and one of Mr. Aurelio's selling points is something that could be owned by normal
folk and driven normally. And to make a supercar made of chopped parts that can be had at a surplus shop? Even the
famed NSX, helped along in the design stage by no less than Ayrton Senna is not a supercar. Fuel economy daw ang concern niya,
who among the world's supercar makers are concerned with that?

Then comes the issue of how its looks precludes its supposed performance, from an aesthetic standpoint. ibang issue
pa yung functionality of the design, and how it's supposed to work. Wind tunnel testing and aerodynamics are tested
out on extensively, even on street cars...I don't see how they could've done it.

Safety...

The list of doubts among serious car guys goes on. My list might even go longer...

If you ask me, they should've focused on a more street friendly design, and started out with a more realistic goal like being
a kit car maker (Rapid 7 can use some competition) since Mr. Aurelio seems to be infatuated with the idea of a fast 4-cyl car.

Make no mistake though, I like the design, I really do.

The design of the car is very nice, it's just barking too loudly and not getting enough punch. I wonder how it will do if say
John Hennessey got his hands on one, or if MINE'S was made to tweak it's suspension.

Natawa pa ako sa comment niya on fb about how F1 teams get ungodly amounts of budget, and should not fail, but he on
the other hand is on a shoestring budget but is achieving something... medyo nalabuan ako because F1 teams have that much
budget as they have sponsors, and are competing at the highest levels of motorsport... typical Pinoy against the world mentality.


@ Shred

madali lang mag drive anywhere sir. if you feel confident enough to do it, you probably can. may kasama ka ba bbyahe?

[rockophoria]

mainit nanaman ang panahon mga paps.. kamusta mga AC ng ride nyo? 

kapapakarga ko lang ng freon, nahirapan ako maghanap ng alternative aircon shop kasi ayoko na bumalik dun sa shop kung saan may namatay na mekaniko haha

[inexperience]

guys may nakakuha na ba sa inyo ng bagong plaka since the advent of this 'no plate no travel policy'?
may kasama bang stickers ung plates?

yes may sticker pero sa windshield kinakabit, para wala nang nakawan ng sticker. ganda ng plaka ko, 666 yung first 3 digit 

[Shred_22]

@ Shred

yep bro may kasama ko kaso ang concern ko lang yung mga zig zag at matarik or makitid na daan kaya kaya yun?

[sonicassault]

kaya yan! relax, focus, and maintain a manageable speed  stop over kayo bago ka "sumabak" sa road challenges mo 

[lockzackary]

yes may sticker pero sa windshield kinakabit, para wala nang nakawan ng sticker. ganda ng plaka ko, 666 yung first 3 digit 

hmm paano kaya to, ininspect ko na maigi, instruction lang kung pano ii-screw yung bolts nung plate ang meron dun sa 'license kit'

yeah I would agree with a properly done 1st gen 4G63t would do the job i have seen evo's beating lambo's and matching up with supercars  medyo radical lang ang design. hehe para saakin yung mga v6 na galing cefiro or yung mga galing ng exepedition pwede na hehe. or put it a rotary hahaha

[mammonchipz]

punta ka kay EEB Aire Marketing along Timog Hanapin mo si Paco siya yung shop owner dun magaling gumawa aircon guy nila and mura parts nila dahil supplier sila ng ac parts. if may leak yan i ttest naman nila yan eh wag lang compressor ang tama mahal yun not unless you can get surplus replacement and pakabit mo nalang dun

salamat paps, pero nakapagpakarga na ako ng Freon, pero take note ko yang EEB Aire para kung sakali next time 

[mammonchipz]

okay jan pre kilala yan sa iba ibang car clubs honest sila when it comes to prices and labor. and by schedule yan kung mag papa gawa ka hindi kasi sila natanggap ng walk in naka schedule talaga ang number of clients per day and may malaking pwesto sila sa likod. be prepared na din haha kung evaporator or condenser lang yan madali lang i got my laminated evaporator 2.8k lang plas 900 dun sa expansion valve and 600 sa drier hehe lilinisin na din nila at may leak test na din. hiwalay pa labor dun. pero sulit na sulit naman they will even check the tempreture of your aircon before you leave hindi nila ilalabas auto kapag hindi malamig pero kapag compressor haha mag handa ka na ng 10k to 12k pero if you can source out surplus parts okay na din yun hindi naman laspag ang mga kotse sa japan hehe

[fizz450_03]

if you have doubts about it, you might want to consider someone more experienced to drive it.


nung nag aaral pa ako mag drive, we didn't really touch on how to drive on a mountain road. but i did spend a lot of time
practicing yung naka bitin ako sa slope then driving off. i believe that helped in giving me confidence to tackle such road conditions.

i personally do not see why people are scared of kenon road, maybe it's because a lot of old folks played it up as being very dangerous
to drive on. the only time it will become truly dangerous is if the person driving doesn't know what he's doing. i see it though as not
being very pleasant to drive on kasi andaming ginagawa. kung first time mo mag baguio, sa marcos highway ka na dumaan, much smoother
and the road is much wider
