I did not get my license in aus and I've never driven on a big city. Singapore is slightly easier and less intimidating to drive around in. Any tips for driving around Sydney?
was it a bus lane?
That is a good question, I cant remember.
maybe it was a red light to go straight but a giveway to turn left.
either way the bus can wait u dont have to enter danger because a bus is behind schedule or thinks u can make it.
Or mayb it left turn on red after uve looked
or maybe its a green left arrow with a red straight. either way its pretty self explanatory busses dont have special rules so dont worry, just remember not to cut them off because they are heavy machines.
Also saw a bus turn left wide and side swipe a car making a left turn in the next lane. Was quite intense when the car swerved into the bus lane in front of the bus to prevent the bus leaving.
LOL i have seen simular stuff, just remember busses are long and are driven by ppl on a tight schedule so dont overtake or sit beside them in double turning lanes. i remember one time seeing a buss infront of me turn left at the lights and a daiwoo turn left beside it. longs story short the busses front n rear were sticking into the daiwoos lane (even though the wheels were in its own) and the lady driving flipped out and hit the breaks. having said that she was talking on her mobile so she wasnt to attentive.
thats why buses and trucks have this sign on them

^ This is true. I dont like buses or big vehicles in general when i'm in the Jazz. You know the feeling when your on the highway and there are two big ass trucks on either side of you and your just thinking "must...keep...wheel...straight...OR DEATH!"
lol...i know what your talking about..but i only overtake them...unless theres a insane truck driver going faster than 140km/h
anywhos so whens this jazz meet happening?
there is one tonight at olympic park again. 10:30pm BE THERE :)
damn i guess i missed it hopefully some pics

hey sdx91, is your jazz the on in the photos with the black rims? They look great! Where did you get em and what are they called?
yeh thats me.. thanks man :)
i got them from otomotto in paramatta.. but they dont stock rims they just import them so i think i have the only set in australia lol. they are speedline 16x7 +40 rims custom sprayed in matte black by the previous owner. pretty sure these rims have been discontinued by speedline.
Wow... either all you jazz's in sydney are too high, or my car's just WAY TOO LOW.... damn
the black one got coilovers on the rest are stock and mine doesnt have a body kit....... sigh lol but i got springs on.. but the roads here in sydney are very bad thats prob why
Show us how it's done bossQuote:

OK, taken with phone, exposure 1/2 heartly fixed in PS, sorry about the dirt :) gawd she needs a bath... something to do on the weekend. (that's MDF dust from the sub install i did last weekend)
Cusco Wagon Z? the entry level Cusco's that 999 had on Ebay for $1700. Honestly, the only reason i got them was they were local and i needed them THAT DAY. had my suspension basically not collasped and i needed to get to work the next day, i was have got something imported from the states that for less with better spec...
i NEED to uprate the springs for the back.... 6kg progressive isn't enough for my driving style. thinking 8-9 constant. from experienece, custom king springs are about 200 a corner.

For thous that care - pic of my front end, (iphone 3, sorry about the quality)
HEY, anyone wanna buy my enkies? 15x7 40mm offset? they sit too far out for the ride height....
(can someone ID them for me too? i have no idea what they are... the were on my Rolla when i bought them, and i've lost touch with them boys)
pm me, or someone give me trade status... :)
they look like enkei racing S
needs more tuck at the front
man im looking to buy some 15" wheels too.
i think they are enkei s racing because stiich has the same ones im pretty sure.
15s are too small imo
16's are too uncomfortable.
really? i used to run 17x, and they weren't that bad.... un broken struts and king springs... (cusco setup FEELS softer)...
wanna get these -
http://www.wheelsnext.com/images/whe..._bkf_red_2.jpg
i think they look better on my car! bahahahaha
how much are they?
those look pretty dam good.
they dont look pretty good my freind...
they
look
PIMP
:P
link from that site was like 800 a set with tyres US... sooo like a 4000 here? i dont know, but that is the style i want, hockhiem mesh, black with red lip, 17x7, +38mm offset.
Advanti made a set last year, yr before, (they were literially put on run out just as the jazz went into to ger built... what was 18months ago... sooo rah), but they dont list them anymore. best i could find them then was $175 a corner.
going to hit up Z from stylish rims in slacks creek when i have the go ahead from the finacialy adviser. (read, my wifes says i can... *grin*)
pretty sure he had them, and i've already asked, and got a pretty good price on them and a decent set of kuhmo's? or however you speel it.. (it's been a big week, and my brains mush... too much coding, and dealing with stupid ppl)
aint u lucky my mrs says i cant get anything for the jazz till after xmas =/
@ ss-rotel
don't go 17s dude, going to kill your handling.
@ GU357
16s are fine, just get some thicker tyres for them, prob get 205/50/16, excuse for spirited driving to wear the treads down :)
.... i used to run 17's... sooo it's nothing new. can't see how it'll effect the handling, other than the ride due to the the lower profile.
AND i can't spend any money till after xmas either, so i feel your pain blah.
Sigh...
doesn't 17s rub when you full lock it?
+45 offset
no facebook
