firstly...

Firstly, i am glad that my Mechanical Design assignment is done though i wish i could have done it with people of my choice then just randomly picked people. u know why??? because u might get people who dont even understand english. its not that they cant speak, they can speak not fluently but nonetheless its still considered speaking in english but i am pissed with them because they dont understand simple english. hmmm... this is what i get... doesnt matter now.. anyways these are the pictures of our design. first 2 is the "concept" by an idiot while the last one is the final design which looks dumb nonetheless. hope u guys have a nice laugh at it. i know i did... the first one is known as, and i qoute, The Sand movable wheelchair. that dumbass thinks this is cool. the second on is the couple wheelchair. he must be thinking that anyone who's paralyzed should have their non-paralyzed partner paralyzed to seat with them. its like telling people, would u like getting ur partner paralyzed as well? mind u guys something... this project should have portability in mind... not adding more bulk.






secondly, i've been trying to get my hands on an iPhone since its launched but wasn't able to. i called the center that i did a walk-in booking for an update when the stocks are coming, the answer that i got from them is.. "please wait for us to give u a call. we will call u when it arrives". Well, that sounds reasonable at first or maybe i am just being extra patient lately. After a long wait, approximately 9 days already i received no calls what so ever. So being pretty pissed with the fact that they didnt keep me up to date at all, i went to the center and ask when will the stocks arrived to one of the people behind the counter. Then the snobbish little bastard replied to me in a very snobbish manner that i have to wait 1 month because i am booking on prepaid. What the hell does that means???? i've been using maxis for a decade and i am getting this kinda service? wow maxis is improving a lot. this little incident makes me feel like changing telco but i still want my iPhone. i hope those sons of bitches rot in hell. looks like the current market strategy for maxis is to make fake, empty, rubbish and unreliable promises to their customers. keep up the good work...

random

i learn that lots of people dunno how to differentiate diesel from gasoline aka petrol. a friend told me that he bought a new car, toyota vios to be exact which only runs on petrol. unless Toyota suddenly develop a small capacity powerful diesel engines that the world didnt know about. I found out when i ask how much he pump every full tank with petrol. my friend say he's using diesel, unleaded diesel. HAHA.. i laugh like there's tomorrow when i hear that... unleaded diesel. But.. well i guess not everyone really wanna knows whats going into their cars.. unleaded diesel. amazing... luckily he didnt actually go pump diesel into his own car... then it would be a miracle it is still running after soo long.

finally i feel like i am one step closer to victory.. but at the same time i feel like i just took 5 steps backwards. haha boleh mati weay... which means no progress.

group meeting was held again... with nothing useful from them. this time, they had a group meeting during my class which means i cant attend. If i cant attend, means my project is doomed. they will be doing all those stupid ideas. i am sooo doomed!!!!!~
Since they didnt tell me what happened in the meeting. then i guess i can just buat bodoh. but i am seriously scared they might give me autocad works. which sucks donkey ass... althought its a good training


today, i have to meet my academic adviser, Dr LYP. after my 5pm class. he's making me stay back for this dumb meeting when i could be at home creating havoc in New York city(in Prototype). the worse part bout this litlle meet was that out of 41 who should attend only 9 came. Then he starts blabbering bout everything. His life, his job. everything. its not like any of us wanna listen and it took him an hour to realise that none of us are actually fully aware of what he is talking bout. goddamnit... 1 hour i could have done 3 missions. mofo wasted 1 hour of my precious life.

project, the a-hole and the anger

after giving me a hard time controlling my laughter, those people finally come up with more hilarious ideas. Wheelchair with roofs, horns/buzzer, detachable wheels, shock absorbers, multi-purpose bags, head rest, adjusted beams(height), remote control. how can u guys come up with such ideas. amazingly simple minded. portability man.... means simplicity and easy to use. not to make it much more complex. goddamn. luckily i am smart enough to feed them my ideas. good thing they accept my ideas easily. its like taking a candy from a baby. next week will unveil how much they have learned from materials. hope they dont make me feel like committing suicide.

industrial training application sent, and found out certain companies on list not taking people or the company is closed. how can this happen when we are given assurance that all will take people. stupid SOB.. never give me assurance when you dont know what you are talking about. lazy SOB. soooo many applied tan chong in rawang. imagine the rejection rate.. i dont really care anymore... i just want to get a nice job with a proper pay. thats all. hope you jump of a cliff or something. save us the time of trying to end your career.

really pissed early in the morning for no reason. everything makes me angry. i felt like taking a sniper rifle and shoot down all those construction workers 1 head at a time(if i have a rifle in the first place).

The Yamaha R1 2009



I've always like bikes but well if only i knew i could have taken a B-full license last time... i would have taken it and be able to ride a higher capacity bike. My latest addiction is the sound the road-going Yahama R1 2009 makes. The rumbling from the twin titanium exhaust. The sound it makes when all 180bhp and 115.5Nm of torque unleashed is intoxicating.

The engine is a 998cc, 4 cylinder thats identical to the ones used in the MotoGP. Wonderful little thing. This bike has all the tech that will make a Proton look like a toy. Imagine variable length air intake, fly-by-wire YCCT electronically managed throttle inputs and lots more.





i think the way Yamaha solve the composite torque problem is cool. u see, when a engine with pistons undergo combustion, the power cycle creates a throttle torque which is controlable by the rider. but as u know after the power stroke, the crank is rotating purely on inertial torque which is fast when at bdc and slow at tdc. this causes a non-linear torque curve which is undesirable by the rider. they prefer a linear curve respond to the throttle. their solution? by altering the even firing order to a 270-180-90-180 uneven firing order. the noise u hear from the exhaust is from this unique firing order.



If only Yamaha has a manufacturing plant here...can go for Yamaha as well.. too bad... our choices are very limited. by the way this bike cost around USD 15k which is almost the price of a cheap car here.. minus taxes of course.. with taxes, this thing will cost a bomb.

Lunch in Manhattan and the goddamn wheelchair

no no... not New York Manhattan but the Manhattan Fish. haha... had a lunch with my brother and 2 friends of mine.

not bad for 20 bucks per person... alaskan dory... yummy... hehe i think i can go for another lunch there again. not bad at all... just that the 15% tax is day light robbery.

today(yesterday) i had my first group meeting on our project for the subject MED2. at first... i knew only one or two from my group. this kid i knew from foundations, a former classmate and another kid from a nearby college. okay lar.. i thought it wont be soooo terrible. then during the group meeting i found out that i have the over excited motherfucker, the bloody blur idiot and some unknown blur case as my group mates. i am sooo fucking dead for this project... for starters, they talked fucking mandarin. i give face to those guys who cant speak proper english. so i try to listen as much as i can. unfortunately someone noticed that i am not saying anything(finally). i always wonder... how dumb can one be.. to ask someone if they knew how to speak in mandarin, in mandarin. i forgave ur idiocy. now i know ur names. so i can curse u even better. i got a feeling i am in big trouble with this group. especially in the presentation part... i wonder if i can do this alone.. i rather be doing this alone then doing it with a bunch of yuppies.

Today(today). cleaned the kitchen and the space under the sink and found a mountain of treasure. Left by prehistoric monsters, their eggs are still there waiting for the time for it to hatch. was actually just mopping the section of the hall which has residue of starch and lizard shit all over the floor left by those people.. goddamn it.. its fucking dirty.. thank god it looks like a proper kitchen now.. atleast for the moment.. haha

THE line..

no i am not refering to any lines. this got to do with me going to Carrefour to replenish my stock. after taking dinner, went to carrefour to get some stuff like food and stuff. when i and ss were done, we were suprised by something. the amount of poeple queueing up in a line to pay. the lines were from the counters till the middle of the building... thats god damn long and the amount of people is insane considering that almost all of the counters are opened. and there's people putting back things on shelves.. well actually everywhere, on any anything they can reach. they are trying to minimize the amount of things they have to get into the express counter(which wasnt actually express, slow as hell). u can almost find anything u might want on any shelves nearby the counters. amazingly unique, u will see this a lot in malaysia. haha
by the way, we were in line for almost 2 hours just to get to the counter and pay up. amazing...



there's soo much people... big mistake going for shopping during the weekends.. no more next time..
while waiting in the line to pay for my stuff... i saw something funny... a kid was cycling on a small tricycle. i guess it must belong to carrefour, meaning it must be for sale and the kid just took it for a ride. i guess its ok as long as u return it(without anyone noticing of course). well he was riding between a row of handbag racks when something funny happened. the bike he was riding broke into 2...



it broke rite in the middle where its suppose to hold the weight of the cycler.. the kid noticing that many are watching what happened... panicked and ran to his mother which was just a couple of steps away from the kid. the best part is... the mother doesnt actually care what happened. this shows the darker side of we malaysians. we tend to take things for granted. funny... the kid panicked. the look on his face was priceless.. hahaha wondered where the bike was made... hopefully not malaysia... else we will have to worry every time we sit in our cars and bikes... worrying it might just break into 2 anytime..

yummy

Let me introduce to u... the car that won the Concorso d’Eleganza Design Award for Concept Cars and Prototypes in Italy... The Aston Martin One-77.


The One-77 is the latest from Aston. With only 77 to be produced this is definitely one of the best looking car. with all the air scoops and vents, it looks extremely fast.


It doesnt just looks fast but its really really fast. With a normally aspirated 7.3 liter V12 with dry-sump lubrication, it should produce around 700bhp. Now thats a lot of horses that will be rocketing the car. The new Aston will also have a chassis made out of carbon fiber which weight only a mere 1500kg. With 700bhp and 1500kg only... thats really a lot for a car with the weight of a paper. You can also expect a 0-60mph around 3.5s thats 0-96kmh in 3.5s. It would be a terrific weapon for all that traffic light drag race... Imagine watching a speck of dust on ur rear view mirror as u go.


At the rear view, u can see a rear diffuser thats designed to provide more downforce on a car that weigh soo little. With all that power and soo little weight, u can expect a 200mph top speed.


A supercar wont be a supercar until it gets hot rims. Its beautiful rims are wrapped around by Pirelli P Zero Corsa tyres that were developed for the One-77 to transfer all that enormous power onto the road. This is something i would sell my soul for without a second thought... Unless something more attractive appears on the market... hehe. u know... this car would be an excellent Bond car... This should be the next Bond car.. Imagine a Bond trailer with the man driving the Aston on a twitchy road by in Switzerlands mountains chasing down the villians and the song Weapon by Matthew Good playing in the background... That would make an awesome trailer..

Ice cool

Some of u might ask... what the hell u need a heat exchanger for? Well its for my com. I have a cooling bug. You see, most computers today running at a higher power compared to those old school computers where a passive heatsink could cool it efficiently. But with todays technology, dual core and quad core processors are hot. You might say active air-cooling(aka with fans on heatsink) are enough to cool that tiny nuclear reactor u have in ur com. Its true that with some high end third party heatsinks we could cool it efficiently. But as most of us knows that air has low thermal capacity while water or oil has better thermal capacity. For example, 1 kg of air has less capacity to absorb heat compared to water or oil. You can check on any sientific websites to prove this point.

The main reason for most people with radiators to cool their proc is the ability of water to absorb more heat compared to air when the proc is overclock. Overclocking is to make the processor to run at higher frequency, higher voltage and higher power than manufacturers specifications. With increase voltage, the processor will be running at higher wattage than its specified. For example, Intels dual core procs are rated at 65 watts while the quads are rated at 95. Meanwhile Extreme series procs are rated around 100++. With higher wattage means more heat will be created and dump to the heatsink but heatsinks have their capacities. For example, u can use a use a 1.0Hp air conditioning unit(meant for household usage) to cool down an ballroom hall rite? Therefore a higher capacity cooling device is required. Then comes liquid cooling.

Liquid cooling utilises water as the means of transporting heat from the source of heat to be expelled thru a radiator(aka heat exchanger). This would allow better temperatures and higher headroom for overclocking. Beside that, this would give the proc a better life span as an increment of 10 degrees would reduce the life span of an electrical devide by half. Therefore lower temps could help u keep the computer alive for a longer period.

Now to the parts of a liquid cooling kit. It consist of water blocks(this is where the heat is transfered from the source to the water), pumps(to pump the liquid around), radiator(to exchange the heat from liquid to air), tubings(to keep the water inside and away from any electronic parts), and reservoir(to keep extra water inside).

The Miracle that moved the world

Since a certain some1 a bit blur ask me to write this crap. then here i go... Engines are the mechanical collection of parts that forms a moving piece of metal that shapes our world. It helps in transporting people, goods or basically anything around. So now, lets get to the interesting part and start the crapping... Wooohoo...

Okay... There are basically so many types of engines... that its almost impossible to explain all. This is because i will get bored of it and will start doing something else. Basically there are roughly 2 types of engines, the first is piston driven engines while the other is rotor driven. Piston engines are very common while Rotary engines are not usually used in the automotive industry. Example of piston engines are everywhere but for rotary engine, only 1 car manufacturer actually used it in their cars, Mazda with their famous Rx-7 and Rx-8. Rotary engines have less moving parts compared to conventional engines thus making it light. It also has more power per cc compared to conventional engines. A 1.3 liter rotary can produce power equivalent to a 2.2 liter conventional engine giving it high power-to-weight ratio. But the difficulty of sourcing parts and the skilled personels to service this engines make it almost no favourable.

For our piston driven, conventional engines, we have lots of variety. Based on cylinder arrangement, we can actually classify them to 3 categories. there's the Inline engine, Vee engine and the Boxer or Flat engine. Inline engines are like those found in most 4 cylinder engine cars like the Toyota Vios. The boxer or flat engines have their cylinders arranged horizontally opposing to each other. The best example for this can be seen in almost all Porsche cars and the Subaru Impreza STi . Meanwhile, Vee engine are like those in the Perdana V6 which the cylinders are arranged in a V shaped manner. The Vee are a compromise between the Boxer and the Inline engine. The arrangements for the cylinders makes almost no difference in power. The only thing that makes the difference is the way to mount them. A Boxer could be mounted lower compared to the inline and vee engines thus making the car having a lower center of gravity.

FLAT or BOXER engine
Vee engine

Inline engine


In the engines, there are basically 2 types of valvetrains that are common. The Single Over Head Cam(SOHC) and the Double Over Head Cam(DOHC).
SOHC VS DOHC

DOHC

SOHC


The difference in this 2 are the amount of camshafts that are present in the engine. A SOHC engine has a single camshaft that controls both the intake and exhaust valve. Meanwhile, the DOHC has separate camshafts for the intake and exhaust valves. The pros of a DOHC engine compared to a SOHC is the ability to place the spark plug in the middle of the engine compared to the SOHC. This gives the DOHC a better combustion compared to the SOHC. Besides this, the SOHC has a better power and torque at lower rpms compared to the DOHC while the DOHC has better power and torque at higher rpms. So we can say a DOHC has a better top speed compared to a SOHC. But fuel economy wise, a SOHC might be better as lesser parts makes it relatively lighter than the DOHC. Another thing to consider is the amount of valves that could be placed in an engine. A SOHC can have a maximum of 4 valves per cylinder while a DOHC could have more. You might ask, why more valves? Does it make any difference? The answer is yes. More valves translates to higher power since more fuel-air mixture could get in and more exhaust going out at the same time. Then a question, why dont they make bigger valves instead of more smaller ones. Well, bigger valves are slower compared to more smaller valves of the same weight. Another point, a DOHC makes it easier to implement valve timing and lift duration technology as there are 2 camshaft to tune with. This is easier because the tuning of the exhaust valves and intake valves are separate. Meanwhile its more complicated to implement this technology to a SOHC. A good example of DOHC with valve timing tech is the engine of the Toyota Vios, the 1NZ-FE and the best example for a SOHC with the same tech is the Honda City with the L15A engine.

completely random crap

I was always a motor head. Some of u might know that as well. According to some sources, I've been a motor head since i was a few years old. Those days, the Motor GP and Michael Schumacher's reign in F1 was at its peak. This is something i can't remember though. but heck who cares. i have Nitrous Oxide in my blood. hehe. Something i came across on the internet. Vtec VS VVTi VS iDSI. As usual read lor... see what's its about. I roughly know that vtec from honda and vvti from toyota(was co-developed with Yamaha if i remember correctly) involves the timing of the valves. You see, a normally aspirated engine are able to produce power easily at lower rpm. But when the engine is revved at higher rpms, the air going into the engine is not enough compared to lower speeds. Therefore they came out with valve timing lift and control(something like that). Its a tech which involves increasing the time of the intake valve's opening. By increasing the intake time... more air will be able to enter to the combustion chamber thus making more power.



This is a sample pic of the lobes on the camshaft. u see normal engines example is on the left while a vtec(or a similarly vvti) on the right. can u see the difference? a vtec has an extra lobe that create another cam profile that give it the extra lifting required to achieve higher power. VVTi runs on a similar concept as the Vtec. So i guess its not necessary to talk bout it. The new generation of Honda's are now using i-Vtec which is the lastest generation of Honda's Vtec. It doesn't have the distinctive sound when the higher profile is selected. Engine suchs as the Honda B16B are very famous among our local racers.

meanwhile. the iDSI are Honda's way of creating a more fuel efficient engine by placing 2 spark plugs in the combustion chamber(i am not really sure where it is situated but should be roughly there). The first plug will ignite first burning the fuel. Then the second plug will ignite to burn any excess fuel that are not burned properly earlier on in te first ignition. This create a higher efficiency engine though a slightly higher maintenance due to the 2 spark plugs per cylinder(8 plugs in total). Thats why the iDSI honda Jazz and City are very economical.



Well i guess thats it... hehe

Idiot drivers and a dose of rage

Lately as the festive season gets closer, you will see lots of cars on the road. Actually more than usual. This is considered normal as to Chinese New Year and other festive seasons. I dont really mind all the cars and stuff... The only thing that pissed me off is the amount of people who do not know how to drive. If you do not believe me, go ahead and look around. Everywhere you drive, you will encounter blardy idiots on the road driving. They are either going to slow or they are driving carelessly. How you drive at only 30 kph.... thats a fucking snails pace... Even snails can move faster than that. Ok i understood its safer to driver slower during the season where a whole bunch of idiots driving. But the thing that pissed me off the most is drivers that drive like they fucking own the road... Overtaking on a blardy narrow road with double lines, overtaking at corners... you think you're on a F1 track?? Go fuck yourselves shitheads.

Of late i joined my friends for a badminton game(i am big but i can play). Its ok.... but its kinda weird as i dont even know most of the people who's there. Haha. They are from the same uni so they know each other while i was the only 1 "sesat". Haha. The game was fun.. I got to smash a head and watch how people who never played the game before trying to get the shuttle. Haha... Its hilarious... you know girls play lar... haha... I had to concentrate so hard to constrain myself from laughing... I also gave a friend of mine a lesson... NEVER challenge people to a game for food... haha you will lose badly... I hope you learn something by now ... hahahaha... so easy to defeat you with a little bet on the line... Haha.

The lots of things i dont mind when having fun with friends. Like sometimes when you wanna go for a drink or 2 or go for outing.... please do not be so fucking kedekut(i kinda karat in the english department nowadays) I hate it when you ask your friends out for yum cha or for a game or two in badminton.... then you will ask for petrol money. I really dunno what to say... Once you ask from me, I will never ever wanna go out with any of you. Can any of you imagine... you ask someone to a party which is his birthday party you throw for him and then ask him to pay for the expenses. Man that's fucking low... The worst part is when you tell him you need him to be here to pay for another friends birthday bash as well.... WTF is this.. You're throwing a fucking party for this other guy and when you guys cannot make ends meet to pay for the fucking bill, you call your friend and say " Come lar bro... this is for you man... Come lar we bought a cake for A and you... Come lar so we can share the bill".... I fucking hate this sort of crap. It makes me so fucking pissed. This would fucking piss me even if i won the fucking 20 mil lottery. Please people... learn something.... If you wanna throw a fucking birthday party... and have no money.... please dont do it... Its a fucking embarrasment.... period

I Know What You Did Last Accident






This is photos of an accident that happened just yesterday. The Saga was the other driver who caused the accident while the kancil is my friends. It happened like this. It was raining heavily. If you were staying in Wangsa Maju area... you will know that the roads are normally blocked by idiotic bus drivers who's brain are the size of peanuts. The road has 2 lanes. But due to the buses blocking, only left 1 lane. The fast lane that is. Since the fast lane is a straigth road with no corners, its only logical we go straigth, and the people from the other lane should wait till there are no cars before moving into the lane. But no.... this uncle thinks people would stop just for him no matter what. We were going around 60-70 only... but when the guy just came out, it was around 5 meters away... As you all should know, it takes a certain distance to stop a car going at that kind of speed. So since we don't cannot stop in time, we bang into the uncle's car and flipped... The car was on its side already with the window on the driver's side broken into small shards of glass. There were 5 of us only. And from what I remember from driving school... the uncle is at fault. Its not ours since he is the one who came out suddenly. Maybe because of his age.... he can't consider things properly already.. I think that guy is around 70+ years old. Because he is an old fart.... I dont feel like fucking him up for his fucking stupid mistakes. So he keeps blabbing about my friend driving too fast... hahaha its his fault and he still dare to crap with me... Man he is lucky to be old... Or not I will surely fuck him ad. When the car crashed.... Jason accidentally press his arm onto the shards of galss making his arm bleed like mad... So much blood coming out non-stop. The guy's daughter say she called the ambulance and police already.... But my friend's bleeding a lot of blood... So a couple of good guys(thank god you did you had to do) send my friend to a clinic nearby to stop the bleeding first. Luckily they went to the clinic because the blardy ambulance didnt turn up at all even after 3 hours had passed... If my friend were to wait, he would die due to massive blood loss. The police did came but say its not their jurisdiction therefore we must go to the police station in KL to do a report. That old fart must be fucking happy cause he went there first and do the report. My friend's parent came around 2 to 3 hours later to settle this thing then they go make a report. Why must that old fart be so fucking stupid... you got fcuking 24 hours to report.... 24 HOURS... not 2 MINUTES.... dumbass.... anyways hope you guys learn something from here... Do not drive fast when there are people queuing up in another lane beside yours.... I happened to be in the same sort of accident before.. On a bike.... And it hurts like mad... I flew and hit the grass... and my friend on the back went into the drain beside the road.. haha it was funny but hurts a lot. so i hope we would be more careful in the future... And my shoulder and leg feels a bit numb rite now... haha

Cursing: the way of life

Long time didn't update this blog. Only just now only I read a blog which was wrote by my friend then it struck me, I haven't my own blog since last year. Anyways today was a very tiring and boring.
When I was in secondary school, I wasn't a very bad boy. Honestly, I don't curse much but since I started studying in KL I can curse very well.
Well in my opinion, I think cursing helps you relax a bit. For example, when you are stuck in a traffic jam and there are idiots driving in front of you, curse them with words like cheebye, cipet, mofo, and many more. After letting out the cusses, you will definitely feel much better.
Another application of cusses would be when you are engaging your friends. You can use words like toto, fofo and lala to address your friends or you can use words like "you blardy ding dong" to greet too. There are cusses that doesn't sound very bad but still brings a very powerful meaning. An excellent example of this cuss would be "I will slap your balls until it breaks" or you can replace the last three words with words of your choice. For example I can change it to - I will slap your balls until it rings. This cusses would definitely bring you to a whole new level of cussing and if you keep up the cussing, you might just get a degree for it.
