[mohalw]

More collect Spec-R from Taiwan!! Coz a lot of intro bout the modification!!~ & engine performance!!~

 

[sakuraguy]

Teng: .... English please!

Uish! .. i oso have quarter cupboard full of magz's i dunt have camera larr how? ... i have Option, Motortrader, Autotrader, Otomania, Stereng, GT and some others i cant remember. All got dust edit larr

 

[johnsmith]

time to sell those mag to somebody since it is collecting dust.....

 

[hawick]

Actually HK and Taiwan magazines are informative, it's ok to absorb the knowledge of modification. Anyway, they are discussing about their country's news, info, & products, which is not really relevant to us.

For M'sia magazine, i haven't found anyone that contents Q&A section. This is what we all need, rather than just look at the car's photo.

This is just my own opinion.

By the way, which M'sia magazine(s) is informative?

 

[normality78]

wahhahaha.. i to im the only one who do collect all mag. seems like i got acompany, whahaha. i shall post my mag collection soon.

Titanrev,
how do u store your mag? i got big time nag by my mum everytime she saw those mag occupying her rack and cabinet. worse if she spoted i bought new mag. whahahah. few times i was force to throw away some mag which "less" interesting issue. :(

yeah agreed. Worst is i dun understand chinese but i can see from the pic. whahahahah

 

[TitanRev]

Normality, i store my mags inside my wardrobe hidden away from my mum's sight. She will nag me too if she sees it. Asking me why buy so many car mags. I just answer her reading is good mah.

Guys, if you can view from the mags. Really can tell which country's workmanship is good. From mags, i think the Japs, HK, Singaporean, US and some M'sia workmanship is good. Taiwan's workmanship is not that good very rough. eg, welding and installation.

I love Option HK too. I think the HK ppl is quite pro now cause they have direct contact with the Jap's tuner and do keep themselves up to date with meetings and product testing. Option HK got lots of new products review and can get deep info on things like tuning S-AFC or reviewing hidden functions in the HKS F-Con series.

Taiwan ppl can do mod very well but workmanship is not that good. Looks very cin cai wan.

Hawick, i think Top Mission disappear from market already quite sometime, even some other mags like WheelsDotCom, Otomania, Stereng, Ekei Tuning, and some other mags who just out a few copies then stop liao. Dont know why lah.

The Best Car HK also hard to find now. Used to buy it from a old book store but asked the uncle once, he aid bad demand for the mag so stop importing. Its a sad thing lah.

For local mag, i think Hypertune, and Traffic is quite good. Quite informative. With lots of neat mods but Traffic's product review is very brief. Xtremecar ok lah. Nothing to shoot about accept for those moded cars.

I like Import Tuner, because it got cars and babes so woon't be boring reading a few more times...hehehe

Another thing, the EVO mag focuses more at the tuning scenes in Thailand, from the mag i think Thailand's tuning is very good also. Workmanship is good. I didn't think that Thailand also got some many monsters being modified there.

 

[xcheong]

hmm...
i collect mags too
mostly option
i collect option mag since 2004.

and collected all traffic magazines
some hypertune mag also but hypertune getting more and more boring. so didn't buy edi

Mrnazmi bro. Ya, i think i have spent a lot of money on it. Last year end the total amount is Rm450+- i think. For this year didnt counted it.

Just want to keep my self up to date about automotive things cause i'm in automotive engineering. Hehe Its also a good habit mah reading , better than wasting time.

felt happy and syok, when i flip those pages in the mags. those old mags gave me some kind of memories.
