Alfa 147 with Mille Miglia Emotion Rims

Alright, been blogging about food for quite long, and it's time for some car modifications! Alright, first to come is a new set of rims. I blogged about it in my earlier post, the Mille Miglia Emotion 17x8.

Finally got time and manage to pull my bella over to the "pedicure shop" for some beauty works =)



A view of the shop with my bella being pampered. Hope she likes it ...



All old rims taken off and waiting for the new shoe ...


A chance to take a close look of my loyal disc brake that keep my life hanging. Notice the yellow rod is my adjustable koni absorber and of course, the upgraded Pro RS braided stainless steel brake hose.


The old original 17" rims, with classic cloverleaf design. Lovely, most probably keeping it for my track usage. Hehe.


New shoe doing balancing, another chance to look at how your rims look like when it's in action. Nice transparent view for my future upgrade of Brembo =)
The whole works completed in almost 2 hours and a thumb up for the workmanship quality. The rims look very nice on my 147 and its definitely worth every cent. Glad I spent the time searching for it for almost 4 months. Finally a big smile on my face =)


The Mille Miglia wrapped by the Continental Sport Contact 2 SSR 225x45x17". The traction is superb and very good run in wet surface and rain water pool. A little noise intrusion in high speed though, but I'll bear with it for my safety.



Newly installed Mille Miglia with Alfa Romeo Rim Cap.



The gap between the tyres and body look big, but it's ok when you see it with your own eyes. 18" is too hard to swallow in my dictionary =P



Loving it more and more! The unique design of the rims give a special aura character to the bella. It matched perfectly with Alfa Romeo's design. That's why I like Alfa Romeo special PCD98 rims.

Hope you guys enjoy it also. Cheers.

Thank TJB for the memory

And just where is Debralee Scott these days?

It's not personal, but.......



It seems that Match.com has caught on that I had been locked into a ridiculously low rate for the past for the past few years, thus making it unnecessary to cancel my personal ad with them. Aaah that bored afternoon when I composed it many years ago! Oh such a hopeful endeavor! My little ever hopeful heart thinking that actual dates might result.

Several thousand "views", many random, and often incredibly misspelled or very oddly worded, email conversations(mostly with agoraphobics or liars), and yes even a few actual in person BAD dates later, Match.com is trying to raise their subscription rates.

I'm not sorry to say that even the entertainment factor they might have offered isn't worth the price in my unemployed budget. Besides, as I've recently discovered, as old fashioned an idea as it may seem, you CAN still pick up men in bars these days. Who knew?

So take a last look fellas, I may as well bring my viewing numbers up before it closes:

What they have in common.....answer.


Attila the Hun


Jack the Ripper

Winnie the Pooh



"THE" as a middle name...........

Sound advice!


And just in time for our date tonight!!! Monsieur TJB is back in the advice business!!! See:

Sing Gee Restaurant @ JB

In my earlier post, I mentioned there is a better recommendation for Otak Lover, so here it is. Sing Gee Restaurant with its signature Curry Fish Head. Ironically, I think it's signature dish is not the Curry Fish Head because it's ok only. Instead Otak selling there is the best I've ever eaten. Introduced to me by a friend of mine and it's one of my favourite restaurant during my stay in JB.

I'm not really an Otak Lover however I must give a thumb up for this one. A friend of mine even ordered take-away to be kept in refrigerator for the family in KL after trying it 1st time. Somehow he forgotten it and that Otak still freezing in the fridge! Funny.


Let's move on to photos ...


The Sing Gee Restaurant, normally visited during dinner and close at around 10.30pm. Operated by family and packed most of the time. Looks dirty, but ready to be surprised by their food.



The restaurant's signature Curry Fish Head and price depending on size. We ordered the smallest, which is still mid-size and cost us RM20.00.



The recommended best Otak in the World (i've not try enough to find a better one yet) priced at RM10.00 and there's only 1 size available. Order two if you have more than
6 persons. Nearly forgotten to snap photos, only realise after a few bites, heavenly irresistable.

The dinner cost both of us a total of RM40.50 and it's a little pricey. Considering
we (again) nearly can't finish the food, it's worthwhile. For all Otak Lover, try this and you will like it. I will definitely be visiting this shop again if I'm ever in JB next time.

It's hard to try out food with only two person in the group, need some additional members. Will need to talk to my wife tonight =P
