Komponen Titanium Memungkinan Suhu Mesin Jadi Lebih Stabil

Pasti pernah melihat knalpot motor drag luar negeri yang dibalut bahan macam kain. Nama pembalut itu exhaust wrap. Agar panas mesin stabil dan tidak langsung dibuang ke udara. Karena untuk mendapatkan power mesin yang maksimal, perlu temperatur kerja optimal.

Motor yang menggunakan knalpot titanium tidak perlu exhaust wrap agar kerjanya maksimal. Karena titanium memiliki konduktivitas termal yang rendah. Konduktivitas termal adalah kemampuan mengantarkan panas. Makin rendah akan sulit membuang panas.

Konduktifitas thermal titanium 21.9 W.m-¹.K-¹. Sedangkan besi 80.4 W. m-¹.K-¹. Kecepatan membuang panas titanium hanya 1/3 dari besi atau stainless steel. “Makanya suhu mesin cenderung stabil,” jelas Jerry yang juga membuat baut titanium untuk keperluan balap.

Mazda2 modifkasi aliran street racing

Tak mudah merombak penampilan Mazda2 yang bernuansa elegan, menjadi sedikit esktrem dengan sentuhan modifkasi aliran street racing. Tantangan tersebut dijawab Virama lewat kreasi yang dikerjakan bersama dengan Bengkel Ckley, asal Bali, di Mazda2 keluaran 2011.

Untuk mengubah karakter, beberapa lekukan body yang membulat (rounded) dirombak menjadi lebih tajam dan kaku. Alhasil beberapa panel body dipensiunkan dan diganti menggunakan serat karbon bernuansa balap, sesuai dengan tema yang diusung. Komponen yang diganti antara lain, bemper dan fender depan belakang, kap mesin serta tailgate. Tak ketinggalan penambahan beberapa aerokit seperti spoiler depan, belakang, side skirt dan juga spoiler atas.

Setelah merombak tampilan menjadi lebih sporty dan cenderung ekstrem, Virama menyiram body dengan cat custom. Warna yang dipakai pun tergolong jarang, green blue mint, yang ditambahi efek cyralic. Hasilnya bisa menampilkan efek ubahan warna jika terkena sorotan cahaya. Tak cukup sampai di situ, sentuhan grafis berupa airbrush juga disertaan di permukaan body samping, kap dan atap.
Balap
Kesan balap yang terpancar dari tampilan luar diikuti pula dengan modifikasi kabin. Beberapa permukaan dilapis serat karbon seperti panel meter, tengah dasbor, konsol dan juga trim. Komponen balap juga ikut melekat seperti jok, panel meter tambahan, setir, pedal dan juga sabuk keselamatan.
Meski bergaya balap, agar tetap "gaul" sektor entertainment ikut diupgrade. Mulai dari penggantian head unit merek Sony hingga penambahan speaker yang memenuhi bagasi. Kurang puas, TV Samsung 32 inci pun disematkan di ruang bagasi, yang pengoperasiannya menggunakan sistem motorized.
Turbo
Penambahan bobot yang cukup berat tak jadi halangan untuk tetap bisa kencang. Untuk itu Virama menyematkan rumah keong di balik kap. Turbo IHI berukuran kecil dipasang bersama dengan perangkat pendukung. Antara lain intercooler GReddy dan HKS blow off. Sementara pipa dibuat custom.
Pemindah tenaga tetap mempertahankan bawaan pabrik, transmisi otomatis 4 percepatan. Agar aman saat digeber, dipasang pendingin oli gearbox.

TIPS REM BELAKANG JUPITER MX LEBIH PAKEM



Dilihat dari fisiknya, kampas rem belakang Mio punya pad atau area gesek yang lebih panjang dari milik MX.

“Logikanya, kalau area gesek lebih panjang pasti kerjanya menjadi lebih maksimal. Mungkin karena mesin skubek minim deselerasi, makanya area pengereman dibuat lebih mumpuni ketimbang bebek,” tambah mekanik beranak satu ini.

Untuk proses pemasangan sendiri sangat mudah dan tidak perlu ubahan. Karena bentuk dan posisi dudukannya sama. Bisa langsung plek!

Masalah harga, kampas rem belakang Mio memang dibanderol sedikit lebih mahal jika dibandingkan Jupiter MX. Satu set rem belakang Mio, dibanderol Rp 43 ribu. Sedangkan kampas rem milik besutan yang dibintangi pelawak Komeng itu dibanderol Rp 42 ribu.

Selisih Rp 1.000, gak apa-apa juga kali sob! Tambah seribu perak, tetapi kerja rem lebih maksimal.

Peluncuran dilakukan di Yokohama, sebelum melakukan debut pada Tokyo Motor Show mulai Rabu (20/11/2013). Untuk pemasaran mulai 2 Desember di Jepang, diikuti negara lain di Januari sebagai model 2015, mobil sport ini menawarkan level baru kemewahan, namun tetap "bengis" dari sisi performa.










Identitas gres dilihat di beberapa bagian, paling kentara lampu depan yang menggunakan multi-LED intensitas tinggi dilengkapi AFS (Adaptive Front lightning System). Lampu belakang juga berbeda dari sisi desain bagian dalam. Nissan memperkenalkan satu warna baru, yakni Gold Flake Red Pearl.

Di dalam, warna ivory kini menjadi pilihan baru nuansa kabin, termasuk jok dan setir yang dibungkus kulit dengan jahitan spesial.

Mesin masih sama, V6 3.800cc dilengkapi turbo ganda, mampu menyemburkan tenaga hingga 545 PS!. Akselerasi 0-100 kpj diraih hanya dalam 2,9 detik.

Suspensi juga berubah, diklaim lebih stabil dengan peredam kejut semakin optimal. Rem juga termasuk komponen yang direvisi untuk meningkatkan performa. Ban standar memakai Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT 600 DSST CTT, diklaim menjanjikan cengkeraman lebih pada aspal.

Please Help to Keep the Verde River Open

As you probably already know, I don't often take up causes here on this blog. I prefer to keep politics off this site so I can focus on the main purpose for this site. But every now and again I like to bring certain topics to light that impact recreational vehicle owners and those who use our public lands. This petition is one such cause. The US National Forest service wants to close down the only public area that has access to the Verde River. The Verde River is a very popular location in Arizona's Tonto National Forest and is used by both locals and tourists alike. If you have used this area or are planning to do so in the future or you're just a concerned citizen, please take a few minutes to read the preamble and sign the petition. Doing so will help voice your opinion on the matter and might make a difference to help keep our public lands open for public use. Thanks. Mello Mike.

Which States Require Truck Camper Registration?

With no running gear, the truck camper is unique among recreational vehicles. The truck camper is more compact, more maneuverable, more versatile, can be taken far off the beaten path, is cheaper to maintain, and in most states doesn't require annual registration and title fees. Certainly, these are all big benefits of truck camper ownership, but the latter is especially important as it can save you big bucks. Indeed, iI you've ever registered a motorhome or know someone who has, you know that that process can be a pain in the pocketbook and can cost well in excess of $1,000!

Why 15 states require truck campers to be registered isn't a big mystery. It comes down to one thing--money. Some cash-strapped states will look for any way to generate income. It's unfortunate. It makes sense to register motorhomes, fifth-wheels, and travel trailers because they have axles, wheels, and tires, but not the truck camper. It has none of those things. Heck, the truck camper doesn't even have a vehicle identification number (VIN) like the others. Because of this, the truck camper really should be considered cargo. Fortunately, 35 states agree with this line of thinking.

So which states require truck campers to be registered? Which states require a title? Rather than spending hours researching your state's motor vehicle department website you can look right here. You may need to do additional research on your state's laws, but at least you'll be able to see at a glance what your state does or doesn't require.

    A Genre Writer

    Occasionally, when I meet people outside of conventions, AKA, in real life, and they find out I'm a writer, they ask what kind of stuff I write.  I always say, "I write science fiction."  That either interests them or I get a wave off, since they don't read that kind of stuff.  That's normally okay by me.  I'm not generally talking to them in order to sell books.  I'll ask about what they do -- what interests them.  That's the best way to meet people in my opinion.

    However, my latest book -- the one I'm currently writing, is just barely science fiction.  Am I still a science fiction author if I write a mystery/detective story?  Let me tell you a secret.  I've got a whole stash of stories that I write that will never see print.  It's not because they are bad, but because I write more than I'll ever have the chance to publish and market.  I have to pick and choose which of the stories will be able to find readers.  And a lot of these hidden stories are not science fiction.  They are mysteries and adventures and romances.  They are all lengths.  There are a few that are novel length, but most are novella and short story length.  The story dictates the length.

    Now, while I could slap some of these into a kindle book and sell them as 99-cent shorts, it's not something I've chosen to do.  For one thing, I'm trying to provide a known quality for people that have taken the gamble and read one of my books.  I want them to know what to expect from a Henry Melton book, at least in a general way.  That's the whole purpose of my book categories.

    If someone reads one of my Small Town, Big Ideas stories, then if they see another with that marketing label, then they'll know what they're getting.  It's the same with The Project Saga.  Different styles for different people.  Now, I like both.  Many people do, but setting expectations is part of the process of making people happy.

    So, about this new book...  Amarillo Texas is a small city, not a small Main-street town like some I've written about, but it's a adventure tale with a high school aged main character who has been dropped into extraordinary circumstances.  It's a Small Town, Big Ideas natural.  It doesn't hurt that I've pushed the boundaries of certain medical theories, so I can easily claim it as science fiction.  That's what comes naturally to me.  I see what's real now, and then keep on writing even if reality hasn't quite caught up to what I have in the story.

    But, if you look at the action and the plot, this story lives in the Mystery genre.  I wrote it that way deliberately, even if I'm not "Henry Melton, Mystery Writer".  I'm sure this kind of cross-genre business would get me in trouble if I were writing for a New York publisher.  Luckily, I'm writing for me.

    I have a great fondness for this one, and a lot of it comes from my memories.  I grew up in Amarillo.  The main character lives on my old street, in my old house.  I've had to change a few things, because the world has changed.  My old high school burned down, for one.  A new one was built with the same name, but the school districts changed.  You see the problems.

    It will be 2014 before it comes out.  I still have to fix all those persistent typos and grammar glitches and get my helpers to look over my shoulder to find the plot gaffes.  But you'll like it.  I'm sure.

    Now, if I could just find a good title.
