Hey guys this is just a Thread so we can all discuss each others mods,
mods are things you have bought or done to your car to personalize it.
whether its cosmetic, or performance put em up.
Should be getting it lowered tomorrow.
why is no one on this thread!!!
other ppl who read this tell us/me what your up to next and keep us/me updated, so we can all exchange ideas on what to do!
Because I sold my jazz for an EK4
then why are you here?
i think alot of people may want discretion in their modifications, you would want to encourage build threads as it gives an insight into why a person chooses a particular product and the feedback they have on it.

Next mods = fuel pump, surge tank, bleed valve for turbo, run 16psi, brakes, and diff maybe...
BAHAHA, if mine wasnt the CVT i would slap a turbo on it tomorrow and it would be fine :D
ahh WA your laws and regulations regarding safety are so behind the rest of australia XD
lucky bastard...ive got to wait 1.5 years to drive turbo or supercharged :(

6foot 1
string bean!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
ok, i'm 5'10, and 115kg. GU, skiny bast#*d...
BTW, forgot to quote power - after all the mods, 225BHP, 303nm torque
^^POWA!!!!!!!
should start a big mans/small car club. lol dont have anything to compensate for! hehehe
even though i drive a civic it has the jazz 1.3 :(
you know... engine's built to run 16psi, once i do the fuel pump, surge tank, and boost control, we should be pushing something around the 275-290bhp. that'll be fun
The turbo used is a little big, and good for 300-400bhp. thou garret rate it 1.5-2.0L
one day when i have the cash, i'll get it hi-flowed, and swap it with the one on my VW tiguan, (same engine that's in the mk6 GTi).
That thing re-tuned without any mods will make 200kw and 410nm torque. turbo and intercooler upgrade and it makes 280kw and upwards of 500nm, all 4WD and mine has the 6speed DSG. pretty amazing bit of gear, considering they start @ 38K + onroads for the manual
i wonde if the turbo kits for the jazz would fit my civic. its the same engine.
not that i would do it. just saying..
you put an L13A into an eg/ek?????????
there must be like 15 better engines available
yeh why is an l13 in a civic?
makes more sense to have a B-Series
either way im sure their would be the space considering the civic probs had a 1.6L to begin with.
but do they make a bolt on for the 1.3?
ive only seen em for the l15A1

OH!
then i dont think there would be enough space.
try selling it for a less fuel efficient car.
thats why i said i wouldnt do it even if i could.
no point.
i love my slab the way it is. even though its slow as fark.
oh man a hybrid, shoulda tapped the crz ;)
not for the price i got this...
5.5/100k's fmw.
well thanks for the list of your mods guys....
mmm... tbh 5.5/100kms is not much less than say a stock jazz under normal conditions (i think like low 6L?) but the price difference is hard to justify..Quote:

insane acceleration apparently, but they recalled them all and seemed to do a really bad job marketing them in the USA
6.5 if ur gentle with it.Quote:

your car has mods though, its alot more fuel efficient stock
i got a great deal on the car.
comes with all the fruit.
looks better than most cars in that price range.
i am old and want fuel econ over anything.
my next car will be a stanced jazz vtis though.
when im off my P's and insurance becomes reasonable.
im gonna try get a honda that packs a punch, maybe a tuned eg with turbo b18 or a standard s2k and have fun doing up the handling, love the way the look at stock.
fuel is cheap, public transport and parking is expensive...Quote:

^^ i dont know what that has to do with what i posted?? lol
i think hes under the impression you bought a hybrid because you think fuel is expensive.
fuels not expensive??
costs me about 40$ per week.
fuel costs me 50 bucks a fortnight :D
Lucky sob!
$40 buck lasts me a fortnight. my engine shuts off at lights/drive throughs/stopping in general etc though.
yeh but u see having ur engine shut off straight away before idling down is bad for it.
i would prefer if it waited abt 15secs then shut down.
either way i probably drive alot more then you guys, i do about 800kms every 5-6days.
either way....
UPDATE new mod:
http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/...111008_001.jpg
i doubt honda (japan) would make the hybrid like that if it was bad for the engine. the engine shut off feature is the best thing since sliced pizza for saving fuel.Quote:

no mines an 03 JDM one ahaha!
all 06+ is TH made
and no its not great for the engine. wont do any immediate damage but dont expect the engine to do like a million K's
in the very long run its not good for it. like revving up a cold engine
woops!!!!! :)
GO JAPAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what rims/sussy are you running since is see the stanceworks sig?
lol i just put that there cos it looks cool ahaha.
it has BC racing suspension 6kg/mm all round... i think.
and buddyclub SF challenge rims 16x7JJ +42
http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/...7/PA070050.jpg
might be getting new rims, trying to find 15" TE37 in black
rear wheels have alot of negative camber for some reason.
you defo either have to get some new rims or take that sig off! LOL ;)
16x8.5 all round and DUMP it. ;) ;)
ahahaa hey GU537...ive got black 15" TE37 (replica though) :P havent put them on my car yet
05+ is thailand made, also no engine will do a million kms without a recon/rebuild, needless to say 50 other things will go wrong before then.Quote:

i know fitting 9" wide rims on my civic took some effort for me to be able to carry 4 people without scrubbing!!!
ive seen some pretty crazy Fits in the states. half are probaby on bags though.
no im leaving it there cos i like it.
:P
and the pic doesnt show how low it really is, you cant even really stick a whole finger in there,
... FINE
didnt mean to be a kill joy or pay you out.
if you like it leave it there ;)
its just your car is like a 4x4 in the stanceworks world. but you drive 800ks a week so fuction is a must
yep LOL

yeh they are. any other way you guys know of?
uhmm i found that the C bar and the cross bars are pretty simular,
good chance you can use 2 J's racing C pillar bars.
if your in perth we can meet up and ill show you where everything goes, kinda hard to find the holes that the thing goes in.
GU - Does al the bracing make a difference? the C pillar was going to be my next mod, with the front and rear lower strut bracing, (not that i need more clearence issues...), but i've found the front end mods i've done sooo far have been perfect.
i did it more for cosmetics, but it does make some difference, the back is noticabley stiffer and moves more like a solid unit.
thought i would update on my latest mods,
behold home made HID projector headlight things!!!

btw they are thumbnails
i like you jazz
thanx :D
is it red in the middle? devil eyes?
looks SICK!
yehp.
thanks
hows the brightness?
its not bad, its very clear. and the halos around the edge provide some light too for just going through the car park, without blinding ppl eating in restaurants
http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/...81603892_o.jpg
must admit i did fix it with some saturation, to try to get the colours more lively.
but never the less my new CF bonnet TADA!
what camera were you using?
BTW, last nite raced a 09, (?) WRX, sounded like a full exhaust, pod filter, mags, lowered....
Got him @ the lights, managed to grab and keep 1/2 car length until about 70, then started to pull away in 3rd gear... he was pretty impressed... being beaten by a Jazz :)
Raced a DC5 type R today on the way home... destroyed him... REALLY starting to think the jazz is a mid to low 13sec car... :)
woot
you pulled away in 3rd gear? or he pulled away?
