MME 06
This article was contributed by close friend and customer whom we did the MME together as a team. Trackdays Trackdays and more trackdays. It is getting a bit boring. So one day a few of us sat down over coffee and thought. Hmm…why don’t we do it properly for once? And hence, we decided to do this: The Petrona Merdeka Millennium Endurance Race. It is an 12 hours FIA approved race with competitors coming from all over the world. There are international... Read More
EG6 TrackCar
This article was contributed by a close friend and customer, hope it would make for an interesting read. Having driven a roadcar on track for the last 10 years, it is time to get more serious. How about an EG Civic? Handles well, goes well and stop well. It has proven itself time and time again on track. So I decided to buy this: Unfortunately I have been driving turbo on track and having anything lesser than 200bhp will be weird. How do I fix the problem? Give Joel from Driven... Read More
EG K20A autocross – Kallang Car Park Race
here is the first EG K20A conversion done in Singapore, probably in Asia when it was done way back in 2004. this car was converted over a span of 2 months, just working on it over the weekends as i have a proper day job during the weekdays. it was truely a satisfying experience when we managed to fire the car up. the car is really really quick over the previous B16A motor it had in there. Here is a short video clip of the car racing in the Kallang carpark race series during... Read More

Building a Road/Track Eg6
Sometimes, we really wish that we can have a lot of time on our hands so that we can build a car to a spec we really love. From the chassis, to the exterior, to the engine, suspension components, etc.. This fine example of an EG6 was found strictly for that purpose. The body was straight, with no major accidents. Engine was in bad shape (so that we can squeeze the ex owner for a good price). Interior was non-existent (so we can squeeze EVEN more for a cheap price). ... Read More
5E-FTE Upgrade
After 4 months of driving around with the 4E-FTE engine… we decided that we need to “improve” again on what was already very good. And since there is no replacement for displacement (or so they say), we put in a 5E engine instead, paired with a TD04L from the Subaru WRX. That way, we will have a good mix of low end torque from the increased cc and good high end power with the bigger turbo. Since I was at it, might as well put in a set of Wiseco forged pistons for added... Read More
4E-FTE Starlet conversion
I was in the market for a cheap car… and I mean CHEAPPPPPPP! Like a car below S$10,000 so that I can afford to buy it without having to take any loan. at first, I thought it amounted to a mammoth task, what with the tax structure of cars in Singapore, and also the prices of used/new cars. Well, low and behold, I actually came across an example of a relatively cheap car, with the characteristics that I was looking for. It was 1. CHEAP! $10K for a car that... Read More
