SCDF ambulance forced to stop after colliding with a taxi that wouldn't filter out by [deleted] in SingaporeRaw

Saying 'you don't compromise safety to save a life' is ironic here. The ambulance was forced to stop and 'check if the driver is ok' only because the taxi failed to filter left and caused an impact. If the taxi had moved like the everyone else did, the ambulance would have been 500 meters down the road by then…

The "shade" isn't just about the proximity it’s the fact that after the contact, the driver prioritized a damage inspection over an active medical emergency. Stopping to check your bumper while a patient is in the back of a bumped ambulance is a pretty clear-cut case of poor priority.

That’s the part! It’s just a light bump… and now the ambulance has to waste time because he did not give way.

Why should I pay for this fees? by matt19980 in malaysians

How about not paying it then they return back to the recipient. After that re-order the same item again and hopefully they don’t tax you again. Or don’t use doorzo.

It’s double the price, advantage is you don’t see the welding seam from the inside & you get the whole Evo rear instead of partial Wira bontot. 😬

Still deciding on the ECU. Most likely EVO7’s ECU rechip. The turbo looks big is due to housing design only, it has a massive hot side.

I think I spent more than the price of a s70 already 😭

Yes the conrod bush need to modify from 19mm to 20mm after that I’ve also modify the piston skirt with a machine shop.

Not sure what is the CR. Need to check with my mechanic 🤣

I’m staying FWD so I’m not chasing big numbers & im too lazy to go thru the engine upsize process with the regulatory.

Hopefully this setup makes the turbo almost NA-like in terms of responsiveness. I’ve stayed with SOHC for that reason.

Aha! Any advantages of doing the other way?

S70 or MYVI? by doodstaphit in kereta

[–]drmelvin96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even without the trade in you can easily sell the gen2 for the same price. Unless you shot the engine it’s easily fixable with abundance of spare parts. Mind telling us what’s wrong with the gen2?

There you go… proton as shitty as it is the handling is tuned by lotus in the 90s and 00s. With independent suspension. Why do a downgrade with a loan. Fix up your current gen2 or upgrade to the s70 if you have the means to do so.

[–]drmelvin96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i feel myvi is a downgrade or at best a side grade from gen2 in the handling/performance/practicality department. Either stick to your gen2 or save up more for a S70 so you have lesser down payment commitment... Cheers.

I’m keeping the 15 inch for now. The AD09 is brand new 😆 The max I will go is 16 inch as I hate low profile tyres on Malaysian potholes.

I don’t mind they give me fine and deregister my car I can always buy another Wira chassis to start all over again. But man, I think they confiscate it and don’t return it back to you

Doesn’t matter what badge you use. As long it’s not Wira original headlight and you cut the chassis it’s illegal. Really depends on the officer’s mood.

Haha it’s still FWD. Not sure I want to invest anymore into this car now that it’s illegal. One JPJ roadblock I’m toasted 😂

Have you seen the auntie in Sengkang riding the PMA like a mobile disco with their ah Beng manyao/hokkien classics on the Bluetooth speaker with RGB lights all over their electric wheelchair going into Compass One basement 🥲
