my new ride

hey this is one of my new rides since selling my micra.... the other is a landcruiser bundera.
work done so far is just the rims which are 18x7.5 enkei RS7.
i will post better pics soon.

looks mean

yeh.... i am hoping to lower it soon.... it looks like a 4wd in that pick

Congrats on the purchase ... thought it was a mitsubishi colt but then realised it was a Honda Jazz.

Am sure they're just as frugal and probably more safer with all that new technology over the micra.

Hope it's as fun to tinker around with too...

gotta be better than our 1 star safety rating any day!

no it is great.... me and the mrs love it.... just got to do some suspension work to make it handle a bit better, and also make it look better.

is it VTEC yo???

which engine is it 1.2 or 1.5 twin spark, one thing you will find with the jazz is that they are very revy compared to the micra.

its a 1.5 but it isnt a twin spark
oz got 1.3 and 1.5.
yeh it is... i founing d a full exhaust that i want to get for it... it looks good and hopefully i will get some gains in power

grouppe m intake...mmmmm. mugen exhaust/cams, buddy clubs and that would be sweet. love the jazz

now ur talkin turbo.... that sounds good

been wanting one for ages.. just so i could get the grouppe m intake! so hot

i have found a turbo kit for it in japan..........im keen as..... but the ball and chain is stopping me. its her everyday car so.

bah, should be easier to do it then! just tell her you love her etc.. and you want to spend money on HER car :D,... for eerrr, her

hahaha
oh if it was just that easy.... i just ot her the 18's and she didnt flinch.... she doesnt care for what a car goes like or how it drives... its really depressing hey.

if it wasn't under warranty i'd be telling you to start breaking shit.. and then be like.. oh.. it needs a new air box.. there $1500 from honda, but if we get this carbon fibre job, its like a k cheaper :)

hahahaha...........nah we had it 4 a while and its out of warranty... just it wasnt really mine till now

just out of curiosity, what are these bad boy's like on fuel? do they have any go aswell? been wanting to get something cheaper to run for the missus.

nah really really good..... they are quite peppy, mind you the bigger rims have taken away from this, but you get that... we are very happy with it.. it comfortable... and well made.

Turbo, the jazz was the best car i have ever driven on fuel. I think they have about a 42 litre fuel tank and was getting about 600kms+ on a tank of BP ultimate, fuel consumption was around 6L/100KMs.

As for performance it wasnt too bad, Honda make great free reving engines and i think the Jazz has alot of potential with the right bolt-on combination.
VTEC hits around the 4000RPM mark and u can feel it slightly (u can hear it more than feel it) but u really need to free up the breathing to make the most of it.
The only real let down is that it is a single cam.
Standard they make 81KW at the flywheel if i can remember right, and weigh something like 1040kg.

Theres heaps of space inside these little cars, they have "magic seats" in the rear,...plenty of room for 3 baby seats :P 3 cup holders and plenty of pockets, even got kool defi style gauges....kinda like a smaller version of the oddessy

I highly rate the Jazz and i deeply regret selling my one....seriously looking to buy another one in the near future.
