2008 Accord Aux cable (8th gen)

2kia — Mon, 09 Oct 2017 23:46:50 +0800

Hi guys, I recently acquired a 2nd hand 8th gen honda accord n to my surprise, there is no 3.5mm aux jack, only a USB one n it dsn't support my galaxy note 4.

I'd like to use my Spotify with the car's sound system, any idea how can I connect to the existing head unit?

New Michelin PS3, front or back first?

2kia — Fri, 07 Apr 2017 19:20:00 +0800

Hi guys, i'm currently driving a 2013 Myvi with Falken Sincera sn832i at the front n Toyo NE03 at the back, both 195/55/R15.

Tyre shop told me no needa change yet but i'm experiencing wheel spinning whenever i accelerate out from a junction on a wet road.

Rest assured, it's not the pedal to metal kinda acceleration yet the wheels still spin n i feel kinda uneasy driving on highway now.

Even on a dry road, my car seems to wobble when taking a corner at reasonable speed.

So yeah, thought of changing to PS3 but where shld i fix them? front first? or back?

Appreciate any feedback, would like to change asap

Revive a half dead phone

2kia — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 21:06:40 +0800

okay, sorry if this aint appropriate but it's an urgent matter..

i accidentally unplugged the usb cable while it's in transfer mode (offline) and when i switch it one again, it says 'Configuration error. please contact your operator or service provider.' on the outer screen and the main disp on the inside just shows the network bar and battery..

tried flashing the firmware but it says no new update..

is there any other way around this?

Falling Out Of Love

2kia — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 21:29:41 +0800

Never thought that i'd post here someday..

anyway, here goes the story..

we've been together for about 9 months now..

we were friends for about 1 month, a couple the next month and we're in a LDR (Long Distant Relationship) 3 weeks after that until now..

not really far, just penang-perlis, but it's still a LDR as she comes back once every one month or longer..

things started off pretty fine until one time she told me she was fed up of me complaining of me life and me problems..

i knew she never meant it, and held no grudges against her, as she might be going through some difficult moments at that time too..

but unfortunately, i sort of stopped telling her about me and my life, both ups and downs..

slowly..and eventually..i felt as though i was not linked heart to heart wit her anymore..

i just let it be anyway as i thought it'd go away soon and everything would be back to normal..

guess i was wrong.. the distance grew and eventually i had to pretend and start faking everything..

weeks later, i couldn't put on the mask anymore.. it's killing me inside especially when i had to reply "i miss you too" etc..

i realised, i couldn't go on lying to her and myself anymore..

so i decided to tell her today.. well, she felt the same about the distance that's growing but only difference is that she wants to patch up while i umm
err..don't envision us being together anymore..

told her i needed some time off and she just said she couldn't talk anymore, asked me to wait till she comes back this friday and talk about it again..

what should i do..? should i give her, myself and us a chance to patch up..?

even though that's not what i'm feeling?

or should i just stop giving her false hope and hurt her for once and for all?

When is the best time to get a new PC?

2kia — Wed, 01 Nov 2006 15:00:37 +0800

hey guys, i'm planning to build a decent gaming rig.. budget's around 4k or 4.5k max..

i'm just wondering if building one is okay..

Should i wait for the directX 10 disp card to come out first?

Which would be better, Pentium D or Core 2? i'm more concerned bout able to upgrade my system cause i only buy a new comp once a few years..

Prefereably a SLi-able system cause wanna sandwich another disp card later on, current budget not really allowing, right?

what's ur say? anyway thx in advance!

P/S: mod, pls move this to the correct forum if it's posted wrongly..
