Kaousiung may be warmer but it is wayyy more poluted!

I am freezing my ass off on site in taipei at the moment.

My hotel is on Peitou road, is that hks dealer close by? and are any parts cheaper than in australia?

yeah, it is polluted but not that bad. i believe taipei can get quite bad at times also.

i'm not sure where it is and about procong as i found out about them after i left taipei when i was there last year.

give them a call, it might be worth a try. good luck.

I went to a car superauto place last night. They sell everything there, shocks, bodykits, rims, tyres, car components, car audio stuff! There were all hondas in the car park and in the adjacent workshop, they love their vtec here. I bough a few initial d things and a few ricey lights and stuff! Then i went to the night market and spend about $300 of company $$ on clothes and other things!!

Hmm now i gotta make up crap on my expense form to cover all the $$ i spent on stuff for myself (about $500). I have to send all the stuff back through DHL in a huge box, which work will pay for aswell as it wont all fit in my bags!!:D

Ahh company $$ i love to spend it!!:rolleyes:

    • @Kinkstaah yeah I initially checked with Chequered as I've used them with a previous car. But they have stopped sourcing and installing Nistune chips. They only do tuning now. I did not want to pull out my ECU and send it away somewhere to have the chip installed. That would mean no driving the Skyline  
    • Should have checked that.  On the plus side, I got my Bluetooth adaptor.
    • Each province differs a bit but we only do mandatory vehicle inspections here for heavy vehicles (Think Ford F350 and up). Those inspections are done by mechanics that are approved by the government. Besides that, it's a free for all as long as the car looks stock.  I asked because I love seeing how engineering differs from country to country. Here in Canada, all designs must be stamped and signed before they can be brought to fruition. (I.E Bridges, structures, Electrical panels, machines, literally everything shy of a wooden table) This can only be done by a professional engineer or professional engineering technologist. Both are protected titles, but the latter having more of a limited scope in what they can stamp. To become a professional engineer, you must complete a 4-5 year bachelors degree in your field of engineering, be part of an engineering order and undergo 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and mandatory continues education. Same story for engineering technologists, but a 3 year associates degree in some form of engineering technology will suffice. If you do not comply, or pretend you're an engineer or technologist, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails and kills someone (I.E Bridge collapse) Off to jail you go for a very long time, your family will be ridiculed on the news, neighbours will surround your home with pitch forks and your dog will disown you.  Same for specialised trades... Example Electricians must undergo 1.5 years of post high school education, 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and hold proper licences. It's for the best, but then we also wonder why we're so short on engineers and tradesmen haha. We also have professional engineers who were only school smart but have no idea how a drill works. They generally go straight into management roles out of school which is also for the best. 
    • Not currently, I'm at the school where we teach people to build bridges and other fun things that involve making, or breaking things
    • I have a friend who has used Chequered Tuning and CMS. Went to CMS when Chequered had a long wait time which is kind of the norm (for good reason). Was very happy - I'm pretty sure the very simple thing you're asking will be simple.
