Aftermarket Mods: Autofuture Design

Words & Images By Brennell Christian Tan


Modifying and tuning ones car is becoming a norm, as seen on our local Malaysian roads. Many modified Perodua Myvi's and Proton Saga's can be seen on the road. But how about tuning and modifying a premium European car? That's where specialised aftermarket tuners come in...

Modifying A Premium Car?

Yes. Certain car brands such as BMW and Nissan usually require specific or special parts to safely modify or tune the car safely without any hazards whatsoever. Buying a cheap turbo kit and turbocharging a Proton Saga of some sort maybe easier to do as compared to tuning a Nissan GT-R which only a handful of companies produce parts to tune the GT-R. As an example, tuning specialists COBB, is the first company in the world to crack the Nissan GT-R's complex ECU coding.

Premium Parts...? Where?

Visiting The Outlet

My brief tour at their outlet had me notice their vast array of parts available. In the back room kept their performance tyres mostly by Pirelli. In their showroom on display was all the performance parts such as magnesium rims, dampers, ECU kits and others. The general manager, Allan Tan whilst giving me the short tour around the place was very informative as well, providing me information on performance enhancements and components. This would be the primary place to visit for enthusiasts who want the most out of their cars...
