march 30th 2001 9pm my dad came home with this beauty of mine, he used it for some 5years and drove around 35,000kms. he handed over the car to me 3years ago and from that day i started loving it more than anything around me.

it has a small engine, more than enough to handle my weight [:D].
i felt the car to be pretty booring from inside so started upgrading its interiors and exteriors one by one. now after 3years i finally achieved what i wanted for my ride. i wanted something interesting, something unique, some thing which is a head turner and now i finally installed a carputer in my ride.

it has a 796cc engine , 145/70 r12 mrf zvts rubber, front discs as mine was the 5speed transmission one. had only minor repairs from the day we bought it. changed my suspension, drive shafts, bearings , clutch plates, etc only once in the past 8years.

i got a mileage of 18.5kmpl on the highway with full load and AC on all the time. that was the max i got. no accidents so far.

upgrades i did to my ride so far :

*k&n intake
*5% visibility tints on all glasses
*sony cdx-gt 460us head unit
*sony 350watt amplifier
*sony 1000watt sub
*sony tweeters
*jbl gt5-a 604 amp
*jbl wiring kit
*neons
*strobes
*HR-alloys
*bridgestone potenza G3 165/60 r13 rubber ( upsize from 145/70 r12)
*debadged things on the boot
*custom made door pads
*4 in 1 rpm gauge
*hella rally 130/110 head lamps upgrade
*tweeter neons

i think i mentioned everything, if i miss anything ill update later [:D]

recently updated my ride's ICE
installed a carputer, here are the specifications
*intel atom 1.6 board
*transcend 2gb 667 ram
*seagate 500gb hdd
*mercury Dazzle mini itx cabinet

*lilliput eby-701 7" touch monitor

its a led strip black in color but in the night when it turn it on blue leds glow, i have a black plastic strip running below my head lamp, i fixed the strip on it so that its hard to notice that there is something which glows in the night.
people out here are found peeling off the strips and stealing them so thought of this idea

Neat ride!! Put a 1.3 or 1.6 under the hood and you will be killing people on the road!![evil]

White leds would have looked much better in my opinion.

im planning for 1.0 zen's or 1.1 santro's engine for my ride, by the end of next year ill do that engine upgrade..
and yeah white leds would have looked much better but those leds come with yellowish background and they are easily visible in day time that something has been sticked to the head lamps. people out here pull out those strips when cars are parked so i opted for this one as it has black background. black background goes well with my plastics below my head lamps :)

Ok. You had Enough Cosmetic Mods. Now For some performance ones.
Going in for zens 1.0 litre is a bad idea. Going in Santros 1.1 is worse. Head Straight for The legendary G13b. The 1.3 litre esteem engine. The zens 1.0 liter and G13b share same mounts. And since you have to fabricate mounts, better go with the g13b. unbeliavle performance and utterly tuner friendly.
And for all those people who say it cant be done, i have already executed one of them.
Goes Like Stink.
