Qualifying session was wet and Kenny managed to secure 3rd spot in class with best time 2’35. Race1 was also a wet race with a heavy downpour that has delayed the F1 Qualifying session, pushing the race start later by 90minutes. Race1 was dramatic with 3 retirements within 1st lap, followed by few incidents and spun out into gravel. It was worsen with lower class cars fitted with higher grip semi slicks Vs radials on the Touring Production class. The Semi slicks works very well under damp condition, causes a mix of different corner speed Vs straight-line power battle. Kenny in car #86 managed to keep it clean throughout the race, without any incidents and finished 3rd for a podium spot.

 

With Race1 results becomes the qualifying grid for Race2, Kenny starts at 3rd place in class. It was dry tough battles among rivals Honda with their high powered engines for Sunday race. At start, Kenny loses a few position before reaching Turn1. However, the superb handling of the Toyota 86 managed to hold on to it’s position in the south track technical section. In the first 2 laps, Damien and Tony in their DC5 respectively was fighting each other and Kenny managed to catch up right at the tail of Tony at T14, however, was outpowered by the Honda along the backstraight and all the way towards T4.

“Having to put the TOYOTA 86 to win is a great achievement to me and for team Wing Hin Motorsports. We have spent valuable time in preparation towards this event and determine to be the fastest Street FR-NA. Best of all, there are still room to improve, as the was very limited time during the 2nd session as the duration was cut short and I decided not to pit in to make changes to the suspension as the car was oversteering on exit. With low visibility at night and the challenge of driving in damp condition, it was a very exciting atmosphere, with my crew updating me with my lap time and gap between the leader, the most exciting part for the crew when the fastest lap time was achieved at the last lap.” commented by Kenny.

HANKOOK and FEDERAL Motorsports Tyres now available @ KEGANI

30 September 2013
 

We are glad to inform that you may purchase HANKOOK Motorsports tyres and FEDERAL Motorsports tyres @ KEGANI. HANKOOK Motorsports tyres, features the Ventus TD Z221, which is known as the world’s fastest time attack tyres and Ultra High Performance(UHP) Ventus RS-3. With the arrival of Hankook Motorsport tyres, KEGANI now provides the full range of HANKOOK products.

Meanwhile, we continue to offer FEDERAL Motorsports tyres, featuring the Semi slick FZ201 and Ultra High Performance(UHP) 595-RSR.

 

Based on testing of the Semi slick in KEGANI’s TOYOTA Celica ZZT231 race car, both on medium compound. Our fastest lap time clocked with FZ201 is 2”38, and 2”37 on Z221, dry weather qualifying session. However, the FEDERAL FZ201 is more durable and able to stretch its lifespan upto 450km with marginal performance drop. Though, the FZ requires a little more distance to warm up the tyres, but both tyres are consistent on lap time against its mileage. If you are chasing for lap times, the choice could be the HANKOOK Z221, but it comes with a higher price tag as compared to FEDERAL FZ201. FEDERAL FZ sizes range from 13inch – 18inch wheels only. Wherelse, HANKOOK Z221 are from 15inch ~ 20inch wheels size.

 

We also did a back to back test of the HANKOOK RS-3 Vs FEDERAL 595-RSR in a TOYOTA TRD Altezza race car. There is a slight variation between the sizes in which Hankook RS-3 only available in 245/40-17, while FEDERAL 595-RSR is 235/40-17. The difference in terms of lap time is pretty marginal, but the HANKOOK RS-3 offers better grip under braking and cornering, an advantage gain through its thread pattern design of 5 huge blocks of rubber across the width. However, the 595-RSR also has its strength for wet grip, thanks to its thread design pattern. Tyre wear is good on both brands as they could last for 3-4 track days or more, depending on driver and car setup. On normal road use, FEDERAL 595-RSR sizes range from 15inch – 18inch wheels only. Wherelse, HANKOOK RS-3 are from 15inch ~ 20inch wheels size.

Kenny in Malaysia Merdeka Endurance (MME) 2013, Post race review

31 August 2013
Kenny in Malaysia Merdeka Endurance (MME) 2013

It marks the 10th years of participation for Kenny in Merdeka Millenium Endurance race. Recalling the sweet memories of MME 2003 with a TOYOTA Corolla, finishing 6th place in debut and the hardwork and learning experience throughout the years was certainly an amazing journey.

The 13th edition of MMER, features 2 units of TOYOTA TRD Factory build GT86, with Kenny behind the wheels of car #88, while Japanese Super GT drivers piloting car #86.

 

Kenny in Malaysia Merdeka Endurance (MME) 2013

Representing Team Wing Hin Motorsports, Kenny qualified best time 2”31.392 with a 3 seconds improvement from MME2012, on identical setup and running of stock standard engine. The TOYOTA 86 was a TRD factory build race car, equipped with safety cages, ATL Racing fuel cell, air-jacks. The brake system was branded with ENDLESS racing 4pot mono-block calipers for front and rear, and of course running on ENDLESS endurance brake pads, these brakes are amazing and able to brake as late as 60m. Both car runs on a custom exhaust system by TRD factory. Car #88 retains the TEIN racing shocks, while #86 was running KW. Both cars equipped with TRD aero kit and further enhanced with the griffon TRD fender side ganards. The sister car #86 driven by Japanese SuperGT drivers, clocked 2”29 in their qualifying with a TRD build race engine.

Car #88 starts from 13th place on the grid of 20 cars in the Touring Production class. Kenny started the race and completed the first stint smoothly but car #88 encountered problems with electronics on 2nd and 3rd stint causing an extra 7 pit-stops and lost valuable time and four position. Without giving up, the crews found the problem and able to resolve it, allowing car #88 to continue racing and make a comeback to finished at 4th place in class.

“The Toyota TRD 86 was the ultimate handling machine that I have ever race for the past 10 years. The braking and cornering speed of the car was simply amazing. The car able to provide driver with high level of confidence to constantly push and drive to the limit. The cornering speed could be match with some GT cars in a few encounters throughout the 12hours grueling race. A great experience for me and would like to thank the team and sponsors for such opportunity. I would also like to thank my friends who came to support me.”

KEGANI Car Care Centre in promotion for Cooling system Preventive Maintenance Campaign

12 June 2013

In conjunction to the 4 Season Preventive Maintenance Campaign, we are in promotion now for the Cooling System Preventive Maintenance. It is common that most car owners unaware that the cooling system requires periodic check up and maintenance. Overheating of an engine may cause severe damages, including an engine seizure. For a brand new car, the cooling system is at its optimum performance throughout the first 2-3 years. Then, the wear and tear and rubber hoses take place. The application of radiator coolants is important to prevent corrosion in the engine.

 

The common causes of engine overheating are as follow, cracked top radiator cover, radiator fan motor failure, water leakage at water pump, cracked water hose, corroded water pipe, jammed thermostat. The effect of engine overheating are as follow, cylinder head gasket blown, cylinder head warp, piston seized.

An engine normally would not consume water, and so if the water level drop in the cooling system, it certainly due to a leakage somewhere in the system. However, in the case of a failed fan motor, the radiator not able to cool down itself and overheated, it would pressure up the radiator cap and release the hot water through the spare tank, thus, the water level in the radiator would drop. Our promotion for the Cooling System Preventive Maintenance includes radiator servicing and replacement of the radiator top cover if necessary, thorough check up of the radiator rubber hose that commonly prone to harden and cracks, corroded metal pipes and water jackets, jammed thermostat.

Our aim is ‘ZERO BREAKDOWN’ to our customers’ vehicle, which can be achieved by educating and reminding our customers for the care in their vehicle cooling system, simply by driving in to Kegani Car Care Centre. Prevention is better than cure.

We also offering Cost Saving package for servicing the brake system and also cash rebates. Visit us today…

KEGANI Product Review : TM WORKS Direct Power Harness Kit

4 Apr 2013

At Kegani Car Care Centre, we are constantly looking for car care products that could help our customer to optimize their vehicle performance with every drop of fuel at affordable cost. Recently, we have imported a new product by TM WORKS Japan, the Direct Power Harness Kit.

As unaware by many car owners, there is about 0.6V ~ 0.8V voltage drop of supply to the ignition coil input voltage in the engine, resulting engine performance drop. This is due to contact resistance and aging(especially for those car above 2 years or above 20,000km) that may sometimes cause the ignition coil to fail.

TM WORKS Direct Power Harness Kit

The concept of TM WORKS Direct Power Harness Kit is to optimize ignition spark by voltage supply that close to the original performance or within 0.2V difference. These precise figures derived from the test results by TM WORKS experts.

Upon testing the product locally by a few customers of ours, including a TOYOTA Camry and TOYOTA Vellfire MPV, their feedback was very positive. There is significant improvement to acceleration and smoother drive overall. Ones could also feel the kick-down acceleration becomes more sensitive.

 

TM WORKS Direct Power Harness Kit

The effect upon installing TM WORKS Direct Power Harness Kit as follow :

  • minimizing voltage drop at ignition coil input
  • reduce burden of the ignition coil
  • prevent misfire at high engine revs
  • ignition power up

TM WORKS Direct Power Harness Kit is available for various car makes and models that runs on individual coil setup(DLi), TOYOTA, LEXUS, LOTUS, PERODUA, HONDA, NISSAN or Dual Coil setup vehicle such as MITSUBISHI, SUZUKI. If your vehicle model is not in the above list, feel free to enquire us.

KEGANI Car Care Centre Introducing 4 Season Preventive Maintenance Campaign

14 Mar 2013

Kegani Car Care Centre introduces 4 Season Preventive Maintenance Campaign. With aims to minimize the chance of our customers’ car break down, it only takes 4 visits throughout the year for us to carry out check-ups of specific area that was already set for each quarter of the year.

We will kick start with Brake System Maintenance Campaign for the first quarter by giving FREE Check-Up for our customers that visiting us for an engine oil change. It is very common that the brake system was not being thoroughly checked in due the parts seldom fail, but yet their performance will drop. The common symptom can be felt with poor pedal feel, pedal travel increase, premature brake pads wear, etc. Common brake squeeling will increase brake temperature at the disc rotor, effectively affect the brake pads temperature rise and may fade if temperature rise beyond the pads operating limit. Most importantly, many may not aware that the brake fluids is hygroscopic, which means the fluids can absorb moist that may cause brake fade in due air bubble trap within the system, especially when fluid temperature is high, where the heat is transferred from the brake system. As such, brake fluids should be regularly changed on every 20,000 - 30,000km or once a year. This would also prolonged the life of the master cylinder life and prevent the brake system failure.

We also offering Cost Saving package for servicing the brake system and also cash rebates. Visit us today…

Kenny continued his stint and managed to unlap itself and back to 11th position before handing the car to 3rd driver, Jim Hunter, the recent MMER 1st runner up in Touring Production class.

KENNY wins 3rd Overall in MSS 2012 season

The final round of MSS turns out to be a great weekend for Kenny and Team Wing Hin Motorsports with 2 podiums finish and wrap up the season with 3rd place in Overall championship standing.

The team made its MSS debut on the F1 Support Race back in March early this year with a phenomenal win of 1st and 2nd place in 2 heats over the weekend. However, the team had a tough luck throughout round 2,3 and 4 where the car suffer technical problem, especially round 4 when the car broke down with a driveshaft failure towards the last few laps of race, giving up the 3rd spot in class.

Round 5 turns out to be a wet qualifying. It was the first wet qualifying for Kenny in career, yet the balance of the car and driving experience has led the car #38 to set for a pole position, with just a fraction of seconds behind Damian Dielenberg.

However, the high powered 2nd place Honda went pass car #38 rights at the main straights after the starting line under dry condition, despite having a good start that has build up about 5 cars distance. Another two quick pace Hondas overtook within the first few laps. Kenny managed to pace and finished 3rd in the Heat1. Heat2 turns out to be a wet race, with Kenny starting at 3rd spot from the grip. Visibility was about 100m only. It was an exciting race with many cars went off gravel at a few common aqua-plan spot of the circuit. The fog built up on the windscreen makes the visibility worse. It was a trouble free weekend for the car despite the extreme condition, Kenny took the opportunity to seal up 2nd place in class in the Heat2 and seal up 3rd overall in the team debut season of the Malaysian Super Series 2012.

Words from Kenny : “I would like to thank Mr.William Loh, owner of Team Wing Hin Motorsports to give the opportunity for me to compete in the MSS. Not forgetting the dedicated mechanics and crews for their effort and passion in preparing the car, Kegani Racing’s chief mechanic for race engine built up, my supportive business partner, customers and friends, and not forgetting my beloved wife and son that always motivate me to win. I look forward to MSS 2013.”

The race started by Kenny with fastest qualifying time of 2”27, position at 4th on the grid with an average time of 2”29’. It turns out to be a dramatic race with the car suffers an oil leak just within 2 laps that causes the car spun at T14 followed by T1. It took almost 2 hours for the mechanic to remount the seal and found out the caused of the problem. We managed to continue the race with Chris behind the wheel completing a 20laps stint, when he pitted in with a fuel surge problem.

 

Our race was then turn into a break-fix trials as we have lost precious time and impossible to achieve anything out of it. We continued to race with adjustment and parts changes in the fuel system, making changes one at a time. Towards the last hours, we managed to do a full stint of 20 laps to the chequered flag, 104 laps in total. The engine was still going strong and it was another successful engine, powered by Kegani.

KENNY BEHIND THE WHEEL OF TOYOTA 86 IN Zerotohundred TTA Rd.2

22 July 2012

The first trophy for TOYOTA 86 in a very first time behind the wheel for Kenny. It was a great privilege to test driving the TOYOTA 86 of Wing Hin Motorsports at the Sepang International Circuit. It was only 2 days before the decision was made to test out the TOYOTA 86 capability and to find out what lap time can this car perform, and the best time and place to do it was during the Zerotohundred Time-to-Attack round 2. Thanks to Wing Hin Motorsports crew that work flat out within 2 days to put up all the TRD bits and get it running on Sunday.

For the first time, Kenny gets behind the wheels of the TOYOTA 86, in a totally wet track after a morning shower. With spending a few laps to familiarized with the car and also checking out the VSC Sport mode under wet condition was a great fun. The traction control was sensitive and would make it impossible for a spin. As the track started to dry towards noon, it was the time to push the car harder.

My first impression was the boxer engine sound, there was a little hose connected from engine to the cockpit. Despite having a TRD exhaust, the car still sounds very quiet. The engine powers up pretty smooth, with good torque at the low range, but pretty flat above 6,000rpm. Rev limiter is at 7,500rpm. The next thing I was anticipating was the handling of the car. There are a few good turns at Sepang circuit where I can test the car handling and feedback thoroughly, they are T4, T5&6, T11, T12. Into T4, braking point can be at 100m down to 2nd gear as it requires more torque to exit T4 that is slightly off camber and uphill. As approaching T5, using 4th gear for entry, I can constantly accelerate into T5 towards exit, transition from T5 to T6 was great with minimal body roll. As I hit the apex of T6, it is normally a little twitchy but the feedback on the wheel was quick and direct. Approaching T11 at 3rd gear with almost hitting rev limiter, the car has a little understeer as I trail brake into the corner, it can be improved with more front camber. Corner entry speed of T12 was at 143km/h, and the car still have very good grip towards the exit. The gear ratio was pretty close throughout.

To summarize, the car has very good steering response and feedback. Oversteer are predictable and steering correction is easy making it a very fun car to drive. The car certainly has a very good base on handling and the only development required is on the engine. The TOYOTA 86 would serve as a very good car to start with, if you are driven by handling/driver’s skill.

Fastest lap time clocked was 2’47, with VSC Sport mode and got us a 3rd spot in FR-NA-Street Class. I was unable to disable the traction control on that day, it was really my first time in the car and I have not gone through any orientation or training. Basically, I was still checking out all the buttons and functions of the car. Just a few days after the TTA, I manage to clock 2’44 with TRC OFF, on Yokohama RE-11. The benchmark was set, and I am looking forward to test out the race version of TOYOTA 86 that will be here soon for MME.

Thanks again to Team Wing Hin Motorsports for the opportunity to drive the long awaited TOYOTA 86 on track.

KENNY in Sepang Circuit’s Malaysia Merdeka Endurance (MME) 2012

20 June 2012

Team Wing Hin Motorsports #38 has confirmed Kenny for the MME-2012 drivers’ line-up. Follow up on the successful outing in MME-2011 with a podium finish, Kenny is aiming high for MME-2012 to contend for the top podium spot in Touring Production Class.

The fastest lap time of 2’26” clocked by Kenny during last year qualifying has proven the car competitiveness and its par with rival team. For third consecutive time to start the race, it was the first time that Kenny led the race with the Altezza in Touring Class in the first stint, climbing up from P6 on the grid just within the first stint. With the development on the car, the team is confident and looking forward to the event.

With the knowledge and development in race engine and fine tuning the Altezza race car over past 3 years, we are confident that the team will be competitive and we are aiming high for it.

KENNY’S BEHIND THE WHEELS OF RENAULT MEGANE RS250 @ SEPANG CIRCUIT

3 June 2012

It was the 4th event organized by RENAULT SPORT recently, targeted to bring more fun to the RENAULT MEGANE RS250 owners at the circuit. Kenny had a great privilege to take up the seats behind the wheels of the 250horse power, 2.0L turbo charged piece of art developed by the Renault.

The handling of the cars was the magic that delivers the true performance of the vehicle when you hit it on track. You can judge this easily at some particular corners of Sepang Circuit, such as T4, T5 & T6, high speed entry of T7 and T12. The car has a very stiff chassis that was very well balanced that can easily be felt be the driver especially at Turn 5 & 6 transition. The car easily hit 190km/h at the main straight on 5th gear in it’s LSD gearbox. At high speed turn such as Turn 12, the car has just a minimal understeer that could easily be corrected with a lift of throttle or otherwise improved with a greater initial turn angle.

On the electronics, it comes with multiple choice selection of acceleration mode, ie. Snow,Linear, Sport, Extreme, and with traction control option, it is a car that suitable for all types of drivers. There is even a lap timer built in to ease your effort to monitor your lap time performance.

Kenny has driven the car on both OE Michelin tyres and also on FEDERAL RSR. Fastest time clocked by Kenny with a passenger was 2”42’, it was a second faster than the record set, resulted from the handling setup by Kegani. Having to realize that the car was all stock standard, it is definitely a good buy for both street and track use.

Kegani does provide upgrades on brakes and handling improvement for the Renault Megane RS250. Contact us today…

KENNY IN MSS Round 2 @ SEPANG INTERNATIONAL CIRCUIT.

27 May 2012

It was the second round of MSS @ Sepang Circuit that runs alongside with a few races that includes the GT Asia Series, Lamborghini Super Tropheo one-make series and Asian Touring Car series. Kenny was again set to race the TOYOTA Altezza #38 of Team Wing Hin Motorsports, in Touring Production Class, only manage to qualified 6th in class with best time 2”37’498 on Hankook Z222 tyres.

The race was set with a new format of 1 hour enduro with a compulsory 5 minutes pitstop. It was all running smooth until the race rolling start, when Kenny had a gear problem when braking into turn 4. Despite the problem, he continued to run and manage to overtake 2 cars into turn 7, climbing up to P3 while sustaining the gearbox problem. However, when approaching Turn 12, the gear was stuck in 4th and could not be released, forcing a retirement. Post mortem has shown the gear sleeve has broken into pieces, but it was all good on the gears and synchro.

MSS Round 3 is scheduled on 13th July 2012. Be there to join the excitement and support us…

At the rolling start, Kenny drop 1 place down one place to 4th, but manage to catch up 2nd braking late into turn1 on the inside line, and then took the lead after the car #74 run wide. At lap number 3, car #14 driven by Perajun was catching up but Kenny manage to pace and finished the race with a maiden victory for the team, setting another history of the first ever win by TOYOTA in MSS and sprint race event.

In race 2, Kenny starts on pole but had to fight hard to defend the lead from car #14 that has a great power and straight line speed but managed to pace and maintain the gap until lap 4, when Kenny drop to 3rd place after spun at turn 1. Recovering from the spin, car #74 was catching up but managed to regain control. Kenny was 4 seconds behind the 2nd runner and managed to lap consistently to catch up and overtake car #53 in lap7, and was 5 seconds behind car #14. Kenny finished 2nd in race 2, with best time 2”37.5 on Federal 595-RSR tyres.

 

Kenny : “It was my second participation in MSS since the A1 GP years ago, and it was a great feel of achievement for the team and myself. It feels great to win in the F1 Support Race with top drivers and spectators around, the joy of champagne shower and a taste of the MUMM champagne was unforgettable . It is an important win for the team. I would like to thank Team Wing Hin Motorsports, William Loh for the opportunity for me to compete in MSS, thank to the crews that prepared a great car, photographer Mr.Udo Kraus and also not forgotten my wife and friends that supported me.”

The victory in MSS Round1 also marks another success of the 3S-GE engine, powered by KEGANI. “The 3S-GE of the Altezza SXE10 was one of the most challenging engines that took a lot of R&D time for reliability and to unleash it’s potential. Now that is it race ‘win’ proven, I am looking forward to build a competitive engine, be it for street, time attack or race use. There are still more horsepower in this engine”, said Kenny.

TEAM KEGANI RACING Clocked Fastest Lap time in S1K-2011 and finished second

23 Dec 2011

The 3rd edition of Sepang1000km race has been a great test of Team Kegani Racing spirit of competition, being challenged by 21 cars in the 1.6 Class that pressures SIC,the organizer to imposed a handicap weight ballast of 250kg into our TOYOTA Celica race car, with such decision being made just 6 days(meeting on Sunday) before the race. With sponsors, customers and friends support, we’ve fought through the odds when our team advisor, Mr.Frank O’Shannessy addressed one of the articles(art.60 pg.19) stated in the Automobile Association of Malaysia rules (AAM), under the FIA Competition Rules and in agreement of the Clerk of Course to accept our entry and the other Celica entrants without condition on Wednesday evening.

 

At lap 16, Kenny felt the car was down on power at corner exit and suspect that it was a fuel related problem, and radio our race engineer for a pitstop. As soon as refueling completed and informed on the amount of capacity refueled, we realized that the fuel consumption was high. A few checks was done during the 2nd stint by Chris O’Shannessy but by lap 32, the car was dry of fuel again.

With support by Adaptronics(Engine Management system), Mr.Andy Wyatt, we had a quick discussion and possible fuel trim to be done on the fuel map, an editted fuel map was then loaded into the ECU. Despite changes been done for few times, the fuel consumption remains the same. Through the short stints and time took for refueling, we have lost time and lost the race lead.

Despite the issue, we have work around our strategy to continue push our lap time as the race was still less than half of the 1000km.

 

At the pitstop after lap 94, we had a broken oil cooler and took us 20minutes to remove the cooler system. Kenny rejoined the race and drives conservatively to preserve the engine in fear of extreme engine oil temperature that could damage the engine. With a few moments that we had to pitstop with an empty fuel tank, Chris brought the car to the chequered flag and Team Kegani Racing finished the race at 2nd place in class. We were 11th place overall.

 

Thanks to the extra-ordinary engine oil performance of TOTAL Quartz RACING, we finished the remaining half of 1000km distance without an oil cooler, which is an extra-ordinary experience for us through many years of endurance racing. The hot oil temperature in the engine would normally get upto 140°C.

As soon as we pitted for refuel in the first stint, we realized that the protest by Class 2 competitors has took away 3 crucial(Monday-Wednesday) testing days from our team, where fuel predictions supposed to take place.

Team Kegani Racing clocked the fastest qualifying time of 2”39.605 and started the race at front row of the grid ahead of 28 cars. We finished the enduring 1000km race, despite encounter numerous obstacles before, during and after race, highly committed to maximize sponsors exposures. Our team 2nd driver Chris O’Shannessy set the 2011 Sepang 1000km lap record in the race with a 2.39.531 clearly showing we were the fastest car on the circuit by well over 3 seconds per lap and demonstrating the ability we have as a team and the strength in driver line up of Team Kegani Racing has achieved. Our race car was one of the best looking race car and had caught attention of many photographers, our team always being the outstanding TOYOTA runners of all time.

I would like to extend my appreciation to all my sponsors, partners and friends that supported Team Kegani Racing in Sepang1000km race event. It was such supports that kept our spirit of competitions alive. We hope the exposures generated by our team have already benefitting your brand with good exposures and raising sales figure, and most importantly, gain customers confidence.

Thank you and we will bring on our challenge for S1K-2012.

Car #36 driven by Kenny LEE and Julian Ng took the pole position with fastest lap time of 2”37’ clocked by Kenny Lee, booking the 4th spot on the grid behind 3 higher capacity classes car.

Kenny start the race as 1st driver and gives strong competition to the two 1.8litres front runners and changing lead position during the first stint and build up a comfortable gap ahead of the 1.6 litres car behind, in hope to avoid further damage to the broken exhaust. The competition was less intense when few main competitors encountered mechanical issues by the end of first stint. However, there was a moment of thrill when the car runs out of brakes and made an emergency pitstop for a pads change. Kegani Motorsports crews did a great job and only took 4 minutes to complete the whole pitstops and it was a huge relief when we rejoin the race with still a lap ahead of the 2nd place car.

Kia Carnival / Naza Ria engine problem / overheating

Kia Carnival / Naza Ria engine problem / overheating

I have heard that the Kia Carnival / Naza Ria engine has a common overheating problem. I have recently rebuilt one of these engines and had a chance to have a closer look to the engine internally and understand the engine from design view point.

 

The KIA engine has a unique liner which is loosely sits in the cylinder block. When the engine is manually turned, the liner will actually pops out. By standard, such liner would require to be pumped into the cylinder block. It is high precision and when liner is fitted in, it stood pretty strong inside. A loose liner would means a fine gap between the block and liner, that is also where the oil and water supposed to be isolated.

It is known that the engine exceeds 100,000km mileage above, will likely be experiencing such problem. A smart customer visited us and initiated a preventive measure to counter this problem from arise.

Solution to this problem actually lies in a custom cylinder liner. A special grooved liner installed with a ring to isolate engine oil from water at the upper half of the cylinder block.

It also also common where one of the water pipe build in at the back of the engine get rusty and leaks. The tube must be replaced with a copper tube for prevention, illustrated by the photo below.

 

Upon reassembly and reinstalling of the engine into the car, we have added a temperature gauge to monitor the engine and discover an interesting behavior of the engine…. end of part 1.

To find out more about your KIA Carnival, a.k.a NAZA Ria and also preventive maintenance for your vehicle, please contact us today.

However, the organizer has postponed the race event to June 2011, follow up on unsettled issues with race sanctioning authority. Hence, our champion car has yet to meet its end of racing life this year.

Having a shorter distance race compared to 1000km race is going to be very interesting as you will be expecting to see more side to side competition with rivalry, Honda VTEC at the front group.

 
HPC 4 Hours Endurance Race

We are set to perform another strong competition for HONDAs to beat.

In preparation for the race, our race engine has been rebuilt with several changes has been done to further improve engine torque to achieve better corner exit power. To conform to HPC race regulations, the first pain would be to run the car at 1100kg, to be under same weight handicap with variable cams engine(VTEC). To take advantage over the compulsory add-on weight, the car is dress up with a pair of production side skirt and factory TRD rear spoiler to add up about 10kg weight while improving the handling with some down force at the rear. A big ballast of 70kg has been added into the car to make up 1100kg.

 
HPC 4 Hours Endurance Race

On driver line up, Kenny will be pairing with HPC Chief Instructor, Julian Ng, a regular karter, that has also made his debut in S1K-2010 recently.

Following up on recent S1K success, we are glad for the continuous support from Ultra Racing, TORCO Racing Lubricants, FORGED Racing Radiators, Adaptronic Engine Management, Brake Distributor Australia(BDA) for sponsorship of brilliant products.

It was such an important achievement for myself to assure what I did in the past is all moving towards a right path and giving me greater confident to move forward. I must thank all my valuable sponsors for the continuous support."
