TKCI Auto2000 Auto Contest Lampung

Last weekend 21-22 April 2012, the boys from Toyota Kijang Club Indonesia (TKCI) Lampung held an auto contest at Auto2000 parking area. On clear Sunday afternoon, i decided it's the best time to go visit this show and try my new camera. I still have no idea how to adjust shutter speed, aperture or light sensitivity so all these pics are shot using auto. Pretty good, methinks.

We start off with the clean engine bay from a 4th gen hatchback Civic. Not much of a Honda-head so i can only guess that the engine is still stock D13.

Look, same set of wheels as The Dog! Seriously, these wheels are now everywhere!.

Yet another example that simple and shiny are all the "wow" factors you need for an old Jap.

I know these TRD 13x8 wheels would cost an arm and a leg in the US.. It goes for only 400 bucks here.





Can anyone guess what car is this?

No? This one should give it away. First guy to guess the car on the comments gets an honorary publicity.

Remember this? This is the KE30 that won "Best Retro" from the contest which The Dog participated previously.

Air-suspension equipped Honda Accord. This won "Best VIP" last time. I heard it won also this time.




Here's a rare sight for some of you. A tasty Holden.. uhhh.. Statesman? I'm even worse when it comes to Holdens compared to Hondas.


At least i know enough that this is US-made Centerline billet wheel!

My favorite of the show.. Zesty Zenki KE70.

Here's a proof that cheap widened steelies can look as awesome as top dollar wheels.





How about a yankee-born Willys?



I'm sure getting this Jimny that dirty is as difficult as getting the shines on the rest of the contestants.


We conclude this live coverage with this full TRD 5K engine KF40.. or Toyota Kijang Super for us Indonesians.



Another KF40.. now with ultra big ass wheels!

So where is The Dog? She was still getting the roll cage installed.. Besides, the entry fee was significantly more expensive than the last one. I need all the cash i could save as now i'm working on two projects!
