PHP Shootout 2011



2 weeks before, nama aku naik jadi presenter CakePHP. Aiyark. Jadinya ianya satu cabaran yang besar. Dahlah berkurun tak datang Meetup, last pun masa 2004 kat UITM Shah Alam. So kali ini kenalah korbankan masa dan tenaga untuk jayakan meetup kali ini di Mimos, Taman Teknologi Malaysia.

Wakil Zend South East Asia, Rynet pun datang sekali, satu penghormatan besar untuk kami developers PHP Malaysia.

Jadi saya presenter pertama , jadi memang terbukalah untuk kena hentam dari presenter yang lain. Disebabkan saya developer hybrid, CakePHP dan Ruby On Rails, takkan nak hentam RoR :D


Sebenarnya banyak lagi yang saya nak tunjuk mengenai CakePHP tapi masa tidak mengizikan. Nak tau rahsia CakePHP, hire saya jadi tutor anda :D

Terima kasih banyak kepada penganjur yang memberikan saya peluang untuk memperjuangkan CakePHP Framework kali ini

BMW : Front right wheel dented

AC Scnitzer Type 1 Racing with 235x45x17R


I can't bear more vibrartions at 80-90km/h . So I went to a tire shop at Ekuin, Seri Kembangan. After checking both tires, the right front wheel dented and caused severe wobble. RM100 for repair and 1 man day.

Auto : Black & Decker KP 600

Black & Decker KP600


Bought this purposely to remove the swirl marks on my car as my hand application technique failed miserably. Bought for RM199 at Carrefour Alamanda Putrajaya and only given 2 sets of pads ( 1 already teared up ).

Now the scratch is almost 90% gone, leaved only the finest ones. Maybe another 2-3 round of polishing they will be gone for good.

The compound used is Meguiars Swirl X, bought at Ace Hardware IOI Puchong for RM65

Wheel vibrate at 80/90kmh

Standard suspension look

Just before CNY, I changed both front tires to 2nd hand unit and the shaking is really drive me nuts. Probably the tires were leftovers from drifting event and uneven tire surface contributes the shaking.

So I went to Falken Sunway scouting a pair of Bridgestone Potenza 235x45x17 to match with my rear Potenza 255x40x17. Today is my lucky day, after searching the storage room , they managed to find a good 2nd hand tires but quite pricey. Well the threads is 70% left so it ok with me. The wheel gap is still noticeable well until I manage to buy Bilstein B12 suspension, I'll stick to standard BMW.

Cycling ?

I'm on size 16.5 Frame, need bigger frame to fit my bodysize
The Bikers , Father and Son


My neighbor cum Track Day friend ,Asnor, is keeping racuning me to join his forces into Cycling Realm. Well seems the racun wen thru and now I'm looking suitable MTB ( MounTain Bike ) for my own.

BMW : Wheel polishing

I got this very rare wheels from my buddy, Abid. Was in his E90 before he sold them to me.

Wheel specs:
Staggered 17x8.5 et13 front, 17x9.5 et21 rear

Before treatment


The wheels are not refurbish yet hence this is time to get myself sweating. I have no idea on how to refurbish these 3 piece wheels, so I went to shopping buying these items
- Turtle Wax aluminium wheel polisher
- Turtle wax bug/tar/stain remover
- microfiber clothes

New detailing tools


Here are the steps. First I clean the wheels using a tub of warm water with Polyglaze Car Shampoo. To remove dirts and particles before I started the tiring polishing job.

Then I applied Turtle Wax Wheel Polisher with medium abrasive compound to the lips and after minutes of rubbing with the microfibers, the wheel shines :D

Turtle Wax Aluminium Wheel Polisher


Now the hard part, how do I clean those stains trapped between the screws ? Instat solutions, I used a toothbrush rub the spaces between them using a lot of pastes. Your fingers will get tired after few minutes.

After 20 minutes and multiple layers of polishing
I'm not yet done with them. Probably I'll spend another few hours to clean the stain between the screws

Nissan 350Z

Nissan 350Z is one of the iconic model introduced by Nissan. Dated back from 70s, The Fairlady has been ressurected as 350Z and now 370Z. And yesterday I managed to witness the car closely as my relative brought it to my house. What a view. Roadtax for 6 months priced at RM2000.00 :D. Interior is simple and only have 1 purpose...drive it hard. No luxury items.


Auto Detailing

1 week break and guess what :D I starting to love car grooming and detailing. Swirl mark on my E39 is everywhere,and it is time to buy Meguiars Scratch X ( by hand application )






So far I've invested RM104 buying Meguiars Gold Class Carnauba Wax, Microfibers clothes, wheel shining



After 2 layers of Meguiars Gold Class Wax


And for additional safety kit, I bought Stoplock Pro steering lock. Bought at Carrefour Putrajaya, RM399

BMW : E39 needs some love

Well seems my E39 in moody mood lately, after I put too much effort on my Wife's FD. Nevertheles, I saved some money for her. So yesterday I went to GC Motorsports Sunway to touch up some bumper crack and put front air diffuser , and rear lips and changed front tires ( 2nd hand ) to bigger size

Made from PU and ABS ( rear spoiler is ABS )

The need to take out the front bumper and drilling some holes
The diffuser already in place. Time to put it back

The new look
