    Sa wakas! I'm back home after hauling nearly 180lbs worth of Calmini suspension parts all the way from Memphis USA! Had to buy 2 rubberized trunk locker boxes to house the parts coz di kakayanin ng balikbayan box.



    Darn! Dapat pa install ko today (Friday) c/o 199 pero Ronald resked me to Monday because they have their hands full for the Suzuku race tomorrow.

    Anyway, here is the complete picture of the kit:



    Excited na ako!!!

    Just got back from a badly needed 2-week vacation abroad. Gift ng parents ko to me. I visited Toronto muna to visit some relatives tapos dumaan nalang ako sa Memphis to pick it up kasi had it shipped there sa bahay ng family friend.

    Nice. Any problems with customs or security?

    Isip ko rin bumili parts sa US. Baka isipin nila bomb parts. Hehe.

    Thanks guys!

    Glenn: I was about to get you one kaso I figured you'll be going to Toronto anyway this January...hahahahaha.

    theveed: Regalo ng parents ko sa akin for passing the boards.

    the_wildthing: So far no problems except that one of the locker boxes was opened. Siguro naman it looked suspicious kasi ano siguro iisipin nila if they see the outline of a coilspring and a shockabsorber as well as those suspension arms appear sa x-ray screen nila. Hahaha! Pero they packed it back well naman and they placed their own tape with the the label ng TSA (Transportation Security Administration). When I arrived here sa Phil. Customs, nag lagay nalang ako ng konti sa passport para wala na hassle. I know its wrong to do that pero I didn't want to risk it.
