Lol. I have to find if I have old pics of my jazz before I sold it. Lowered the car with a spoon N1 muffler and just a pod filter. I have to admit I still feel kinda sad selling it though. But then again. I got an EK that I always wanted.
Bottom line is that regardless I still think the jazz is one of the best rides I will ever own :)
Hellafail!! Hahaha

INGS kit is nice :P i love it
haha yeah man, its all out now :( i got yellow stickered for excessive noise and bars :(
for ppl who dunno yellow sticker is a defect notice.
its a yellow stick they put on ur windscreen.
can they defect you for cross bars?
Well its bars going through the cab and they arent ADR so they can.
unless u argue that they are stabilizer bars but the cops probs wont listen.
Sounds like he was pulled over for the excessive noise his car makes, header system followed by straight pipe absolutely no restriction AHAHA.
lol but with that argument, they can defect you for strut bars too?
yep, its not a stock chassis component.
yeah they basically are stabilizer bars but its just the way it looks they didnt really believe me.
and yeah i did get pulled over for making too much noise haha and they searched the car and found some monkeys bars in the car :(
yeh, maybe try rap them in something black so they dont stand out, and uhmm get a muffler LOL
i would have argued that they are removeable and you were on your way home from a track meet...
Hey... raced a Mk5 Golf GTi today... got me off the mark, about 1.5 car lengths... but i think i upset him when i passed him spinning both wheels in 2nd gear... :)

but if u get the antenna get a piece of black rubber hose and cut it thin so it fits well, the antenna has too much thread for the car and so u can see it sticking out.

lol used my center cap as gear knob
LOLOL nice
anyone use a drop in k&n filter?
is it worth it?
^ im wondering the same thing.. drop in or sri?? are they the same in performance? i know cai is obviously better but with the shitty rainy weather dont wana take any risks so probs just get a sri unless drop in filter does the same thing :/
SRI is always better. the K&N is better then the standard but it still restricted by the poorly designed stock intake.
you wont notice any difference with the K&N drop in, the only advantage it has is that its rewashable and reusable.
http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg834...jpg&res=medium
visors are in
http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg836...jpg&res=medium
rear wiper gone and benen style tow hook added
Hey, i was running a drop in filter on my 2005, seemed to make a little difference, 1-2kw, only really noticable under load, binning the stock muffler for something Aftermarket will cost about the same with great results. stock's pretty restrictive top end RPM.
SRI's ok, as long as you can get cool air to the filter. if it's sucking HOT engine bay air, then you may no gain anything, even loss some power ona hot day. CAI is a better option for performance, but watch for puddles.
in my 2003 model, the battery was set in a way that, once the filter box was removed, it acted like a heat barrier, but 2005 models the battery's in a different location.
anyway... there's lots of room behind the fender, if you feel up to pulling it off and getting @ the intact for the airbox with a dremel.
new tyres on the racing jazz. RE002 adrenalines. better than the RE001's, i guess we'll see how long they'll last.
oh, i want these - http://www.advanti-wheel.com/global/...?id=41&ptype=3 black and red, 17x7.5.
might even be able to afford a set after easter... guy putting on my tyres tell me that 3 out of my 4 enkei's aren't really round... so i see a new set of mags in my future.
niceeeeeee they look good man.
look at what the postman delivered me.....
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...87515280_n.jpg
the rear springs are missing the height adjustment spacer.
but they look good. what brand are the coils? springs look eibach?
lol yeh sigh.. do u know where i can buy a set?? they are buddy club n+ coilovers.
nah no idea... look for a set of rear adjustables.
and use them springs instead.
Don't know if you guys will like this but heres a J-Racing intake with K&N Pod Filter in my Girlfriends jazz :)

Manual GD3 VTI-S kit
i got a nice Js racing lip to go with that model :P
dont u think the Js racing air intake is OP
goodlooking tho
Definitely OP but i got it second hand off the forums for a really good price, Shame your in perth or i would be interested in grabbing that lip off you :P
ahaha yeh e-go do shipping for this item tho. cause i got it off a mate in melb originally, being told it fit all the jazz's however it doesnt and you can see when looking at the design it is specifically for the vtis 06+
Hey sticker bombed my sidemirrors. to cover up so damage done to them, from something somehow.
so i bought both the rarekwai sticker bomb sets from jdm sticker boy.
http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/...7/IMAG0033.jpg
http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/...7/IMAG0032.jpg
i wouldnt recommend sticker bombing with these in the future.
although they were sold by JDM sticker boy they are not really automotive vinyl feels more like a cheap paper sticker u find in kids colouring books.
pretty dissapointing.
but i proceeded anyway. being paper they didnt bend around corners and would not respond to heat so they are kinda folded and stuff around the edges. but from a distance i think it looks ok.
paper stickers + rain/water = mush ?
yeh ns. but it aint raining here so it will last till then. and ill CF wrap them soon most likely.
really dissapointed with the sticker quality. but like the look.
Ummm... i dont know about you, but dont those springs sit on the trailing arm, and not around the strut? they'll just be that way in the box for shipping.
IF those springs ARE from a coilover set, the platform will only bring the hight up, so if you want it super low, you dont need it, speaking from my setup... hey... don't you have a set of Kings springs already? if you just after a handling upgrade, and not worried about the height too much, use the king springs in the back, (which are constant rate and will be much firmer than the one's pictured), and run the shocks and front coilovers.
make the front a little lower than the back, and you'll lift-off-overstear like a pro :)
OR talk to King Springs or TEIN, (fulcrum), and see if they can organize you a set of platforms. ummm... you MIGHT be able to use the ones from a Commodore Wagon/ute prety sure they are about the same size, OR you should be able to get a set of pre-tension springs to keep the springs trapped if tha'ts not going to work...
try get hold of some nice stiff rear springs and a rear strut brace and thats how u get over steer. i remember some scary round abouts when i had the braces through out my jazz
NEW MODS - Slotted from Rotors, braided line, DOT4 fluid, and some you-beaute brake pads
will let you know once i've finished bedding it in as to how good it is, am 300km in, and it's getting nice and firm...
Here's one for you, i've been told be a mate that braided line is illegal. I know that it's illegal to do brakes yourself, (aside from pads), but i can't see that a reputable company would have not at least warned me about it. anyway, i found it a bit odd
lol @ 'you-beaute'Quote:

what kinda difference do you feel in the brakes with everythingn new?
Nice rotel.
But i thought u would of upgraded way back when u first turbo'd it.
Which reminds me I got pulled over last night by unmarked cop car car called me a peter Brock.
I took it as a compliment, didn't say anything abt suspension, bucket seat or the race harness.
He was pretty nice about it, let me off with 2 warnings.
1 for not indicating on exiting a roundabout, and another for doing 70km/h through the roundabout

buddy club coilovers in! gona lower the front a bit more later :)
wow the back is low!
i found that the back wheels have a -ve camber which helps tuck them under the car, anyone else notice?
also what size tyres u running i have some brand new 205/45/16 on my 16x7's that i picked up for 95 bucks.
im hoping since these have abit more sidewall then my 205/40s it will fill in the guards nicer
and funny story, was driving through a school zone other day, and hit a plastic coke bottle... dragged it for ages, doing 40kms an hour all the kids looking at me, felt so dumb....
well played!!!Quote:

need a spoiler tho to finish of the back.
LOL hahaha swag.
yeh ur right it gets -ve camber.. i got -ve camber on the front too but just by like -1 and back is around -1.5.
im on 205/50/16 but 45 is good cos u wont get much if not any rubbing issues.. 50 is where the rubbing starts but fills the guards flush.. my rims are 16x7 too.
haha yeh true. next up probs get the cf spoon duckbill wing ;)
Yeh join the club. If u want I can ask get the email from the guy I got mine from
Around 200 shipped I think
oh how did u get -ve camber on the front? camber kit? or is that how the tyres are worn in?
mine sit abit positive. might just be the way my tyres are worn tho.
ooooh yes please! wats his email?? the buddy club coilovers has adjustable camber on the front too.. but the guys like get camber bolts instead cos the design is not good.
Hmm mine doesn't have camber adjustment. Is the adjustment ontop?
Maybe It's the later bc coils. Or I didn't notice them. Any pics of the camber adjusting bit?
New tyres and they are definately positive cambered.
Gonna need camber kit unless my bcs have adjustment.
My guards are filled up nicer with 205/45/16 tyres :D
And did my own sub n amp install. The parts were free and the guyis also giving me some free Kenwood speakers
I'll get email for u and post it tonight
im picking up some T1R coilovers tonight. took off my muffler yesterday. took off my spoiler yesterday. too scared to drill holes for the duckbill. need to get double sided tape for my mugen grille. need to get new wheels or just spray my stock ones black.
SURAJ! did ben come around to install your coilovers?
do the BCs just have camber bolts?
Anyone running a camber kit?
Gonna install duckbill wing, mugen grille, paint wheels black and put in Coilovers this week. I'll post some before photos tomorrow. Can't wait for the transformation! Still thinking I need visors for the coming months.
