 Introduction: Efini

Hello!

I run by the alias of Efini. Primarily, I involve myself in real-life locations and events and will be one of the frequent posters on this blog.

What are my interests?

Primarily older cars. It doesn't have to be infamous or sought after, I have a keen eye on older cars as a whole, and not just the performance types. I can and will be interested in the likes of the Nissan March, Proton Saga, and other cars that once graced our generation or the previous.

What equipment do I use? As of 26 June 2023, I use a Sony a6400 with 55-210mm lens for long mid-long distance photography, and 16-50mm lens for close distance photography, such as car meets.

Having bought the camera in June 4 2022, its been over a year with the first camera I owned.

Other devices that I typically use include a Samsung S22, an iPhone SE, a Fujifilm Instax Mini Evo and an 4th generation iPod Touch.

Majority of these devices apart from those like the Sony and Samsung will not frequently be featured on the blog, but I hope it provides some variety when they appear on the blog.

What's the current transportation pod?

As of the writing of this introduction (26/6/23), the choice of transport is a 2009 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C350 W204.

This is more of a recent acquisition, our ex-car was a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0 renewed with a 5-year COE.

What's the hopeful goal that I have?

Having an unhealthy addiction to motorized transport calls for unwise choices in life. The current hope is getting attainable dream cars, because the actual dream ones are priced out of attainability (Peek Mazda RX7 for reference)

In Singapore, I hope to someday own a Daihatsu Charade GTti, Singapore's boy-racer car of the 90's and one that is fondly loved by enthusiasts as a first car, alongside the Suzuki Swift GTi.

There's a slim chance that I will ever be able to sample these, for as of the time of writing, only two are left roaming the island.

In Malaysia, I stick by the aspiration for the hot (or warm depending on how you look at things) hatch, so the Proton Satria GTi is high on the list.

This was actually the very first attainable dream car that I aspired to own, but having realized that none were in Singapore anymore (I hope to cover this topic in the future!), I eventually sought after the Daihatsu. However in its home market, the Satria GTi is still available and is something that I hope to look for in the future.

Conclusion

I will be a primary figure on this blogpost that will cover real events and places, whilst Emira will be covering Roblox and Celestar Islands, and anyone else who may be on board in the future. Although I didn't express my personality and anything else, I hope that this small introduction will be enough for you to gauge who I am and what my interests are.

Until we meet again in a future blog. Goodbye!

Hello!

On this page, I'm the one specializing in ROBLOX articles, whilst FD takes over on the IRL tasks.

As you'd expect, my content is solely based on ROBLOX cars and the Celestar Islands map.

This whole blog was originally inspired by Noriyaro's early era of the Noriyaro website and dorohoteki in the Roblox Car Community and his very direct influence from his website to articles on this blog.

Maybe to stir up some form of lore:

Here in Celestar Islands, I primarily drive a 2000 Proton Satria GTi, one of two that I have owned before. The previous car was an identical year model, painted in black and swapped with an All-Wheel Drive drivetrain and a supercharger to push the motor to just under 200 Horsepower. That car was later sold to accommodate for personal reasons, but I am back in another Satria GTi, a silver unit with slight modifications done-up by the previous owner.

Primarily, I operate as a student, but I often work as a part-time journalist documenting the car culture here in Celestar. Racing both on track and illicit races on public mountain roads is what I do want to cover eventually, since these will never last long from the inherent risks. But nevertheless, I strive and have done a few articles and have assisted in a few local magazines that has both front covers made by me or featured articles written by me. With this blog do I hope to reach out more to the net and place my two cents on certain cars and cultures.

I leave lots of probably pivotal information on the table because I can't think of them now, however I hope that what I've written will be enough for you, the reader, to get an idea of what I'll be doing here. Till next time!
