Its has been awhile..

That I've did any stock upgrades, technical modification or beautification cosmetics on my new ride, the Sienta. This new ride is really great but lack the storage space of the Matrix.. But than, being able to ferry more people now is my main objective :)

Here's the line up that what I've done for the past 6 months on this new ride.

3 Analogue ProSports Meter, voltmeter, vaccum and water temperature. Blue in colour when headlight is off & turn white when headlight is on. Since I'm using maintenance free battery, it's better to monitor the battry voltage. Sienta console does not have a water temperature meter, only has an indicator, so its practical to have 1 to monitor it too. Lastly, the vaccum. Usually landing in the red zone, its used to evaluate engine vacuum in the intake manifold.

Pivot Raizin Voltage Stabilizer. Stabilizing voltage is said to help the car's ECU, which in turn results in alot of benefits like improved audio quality; increased torque, response and power; stabilized idling and improved engine kick over; increased headlight brightness; improved fuel economy & lastly, improved battery life especially if you are using maintenance free battery.

6 Point Silver Grounding Cable. A good electrical performance requires a grounding system that's prepared to take a lot of current with minimal resistance. Your spark plugs, lights, fans, stereo, air conditioner, cigarette lighter, and so on all benefit from an elaborate electrical network that includes fuses, relays, and high-quality electrical cabling. They all share a common ground, however, and all too often a stock grounding system consists of just a couple of skinny braided cables that connect the chassis and engine to your battery's negative terminal. As these sorry connections rust out or come loose over time, the amount of conductive material decreases. Therefore grounding cable help make sure that all of the electrical equipment in your car is performing as well as it can.

ONPOW Stainless Steel LED Switches has a really cool glow in the dark, the switch body is abit too long but just nice to be fitted into the small compartment there.

Custom made to measure 3M carmat. Excellent in trapping dust & dirt, its waterproof, anti-slip and has a heel plate to prevent premature wear & tear. Its easy to maintenance as well.

Custom made Front Grill Mesh Cover to make the ride look abit sporty & better regular air intakes with stock pips.

Coming up next..

Cold Air Intake aka CAI - Hoping to improve the engine power and efficiency by taking in cold air for combustion rather than the regular air intake which is small & warm at times.

Sequencer LED - Just manage to reconfigure the sequence logic for the LED to run like the early 80s knight rider glow, but in white color.
