If you have a look at redbook values the Japanese made vehicles of the same year as the Thai made vehicles ie. 2006 go for around $500 more 2nd hand. They all depreciate at ever increasing rates as...
Australia will continue to bring in Jazzes from Thailand taking advantage of Thai-Australian Free Trade Agreement. It would cost more to bring them in from Japan which would mean a higher end user...
80%+ of your braking is performed by the fronts on the Jazz so upgrading front brakes will have a much bigger impact on brake performance than bothering with the rears.
The CVT shift knob is just 2 screws on the front of the shifter with a standard phillips head screw driver. Just reuse the existing 2 screws. Dead easy 2 min job even for the very special Honda...
Open another door and then close the drivers door. Amazingly you will find it not hard to close the drivers door anymore but then it will be hard to close the last door that is open. You've...
I had my CVT fixed under warranty. All they did was drain the existing ATF-Z1 (red coloured fluid) and replaced with the proper golden coloured Honda CVT fluid. Drive around and then then drain that...
Even the same dyno on different days gives different results for the same car as it is effected by outside temperature and air density as well as many other factors.
You can specify on the contract that the car must have a certain build date ie. Jan 2007 or later and only a certain max number of km on the clock eg.20. Seen dealers deliver 'new' cars with 100km+...
Take the number of kilometers you've done and divide it by how much fuel you fill up with and you'll find its a lot more accurate. The longer you leave the dometer without reseting it the more...
You can't get warranty service in Australia on overseas / grey market headunits but if the place you got it from is legit then you can send it back to them if it breaks for them to send off for...
yes but be wary of depth. Even with the biggest spacers you can fit the speakers can only be about 67mm deep if you still want to be able to wind down the windows.
Change the CVT fluid more frequently VS. new CVT transmission because the fluid wasn't changed more regularly. The Honda fluid is certainly not cheap but its a lot cheaper than a whole new...
No the body changed with the model facelift in 2005. Cars were still sourced from Japan at that time. The body did not change again in 2006 as the facelifted model was then just sourced from...
The 14" 175 ASpecs that come standard on the VTi are really crap. No traction wet or dry, poor wear, weak sidewalls. Mine slashed straight thru the sidewall along the join from an ordinary pothole....
The premium integrated head unit in Australian spec doesn't support MP3s. I haven't worked out what's premium about it yet. It doesn't support MP3s, doesn't reliably play CDRs, doesn't have enough...
The auto will redline under hard acceleration just as a manual will and you have S mode which increases the revs for the same given speed as in D. You can also manually hold the revs with the virtual...
The factory head units built in amplifier is very underpowered compared to any aftermarket head unit and aftermarket head units are underpowered compared to external amps. If your going to use the...
