Yeah what to do, just have to suck it up and try save somewhere else. Honestly if someone had told me few years back that IDR will appreciate so much against MYR, I would laugh in their face! Who would have thought IDR for God's sake, one of the weakest currency in the world can appreciate that much against MYR! Sigh...
Looks like MYR is depreciating against many more types of currency. At least you are in a professional field here and I assume you are earning a good amount of income. The other Indonesians working in labor or household services sectors are probably feeling worse.

Yeah MYR depreciates the worse among other currencies in the last 2 yrs or so. Now also when Trump won, MYR is the worse against USD and other currencies. :banghead:

I'm not even sure how did the election over there affected our MYR. If anything, I thought USD should go down but I'm wrong.

RM85 for FS is cheap. Maybe next time I'll go around shops to see how much it cost.

Too bad I din't take a picture of the Castrol oil properly. This is the only picture that I got.

Ask a few spare parts shop to compare prices....:driver:

Yup, this 20w-50 in mineral

I din't manage to use this one for long. Changed it during April 2013, got it all leaked out on the floor in September 2013. Flywheel oil seal leaking.

Donald's policy is basically to protect the US and make the US more egoistic in the world economy so they can profit more for themselves, so of course that will shoot up USD. That is at least based on what he had said all along during the campaign, not sure if he will go thru with all of them exactly like that.

What is said earlier and what is done later can be a completely different thing. :biggrin:

But anyway, if your engine does consume engine oil switch to SS 10w-40 good enough.....:driver:

Din't consume oil on my previous SS 10W-40 even when it is over 5000km mileage. First I ask mechanic okay or not if use 5W-40 FS. Will it consume oil. He said, can try first and monitor the oil level. If consume, then next time switch back to SS 10W-40.

I don't know why my friend told me last time he use SS 10W-40 on his EFI Wira auto, his one finished at around 3000km and he din't know. So he sort of blown up his engine and went for overhaul. Told me to be careful with SS 10W-40.

If use 10w-40 consume EO, then 5w-40 will be worse. If engine is old and worn then the 20w-50 will be best......lol:biggrin:

I don't know what happened to my friend's Wira. His one is the facelift Wira with SE style bumper. Should be way newer than mine but somehow his engine condition seems worse.

The BRZ / 86 is in a little bit of a limbo these days. A brilliant coupe on one hand and a asthmatic child on the other. Although Toyobaru coupes are never known to be powerful nor fast within the sports car vocabulary, they make up for purity, soul and driveability. It defines the true meaning of a driver's car. That's why driving legends like Tengku Djan has an 86...
