what do you think? Carbon Wrap?
Never seen it done before, only problem is that your visibility will be less as the visors are transparent. Just a heads up as the jazz pillars are already quite wide.

The visors are not clear anyway, they are black, plus no one looks thru the visors anyway as they don't exactly cover much of your visibility. lol..

I wanna get the tail garnish first before the wrap so i can get that thrown in, shame it comes from abroad which means i will have to wait till i get back from Hong Kong for the wrap.

May get the tints first.

Cheap mods you ask?

Well a really cheap mod is to blak off your Exhaust gas recirculation valve that throws exhaust gases back into your intake for a second burn to reduce emissions. This is not cool, literally, as hot dirty air is then in your engine clogging it up and reducing the bang for buck you should be getting.
this link is to the mod I explain on my maintenance bit: https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/euro...z-fit-gd1.html

pics of mod here: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?s...8657d7&theater

There is also a link to my facebook albm that shows the mod. Should make the engine pull better. I would also suggest decat and increasing the size of your throttle body.

parts

Now earlier on in this thread someone said they can source parts?

What parts can people get and how much :P

Also I bought some eibach camber bolts for the Mpheason struts as I have J's racing suspension and they are a nice cheap effectice mod.

A Jazz meet would be good I vote we all go to South Mimms in October

im interested in the egr mod too but was wondering what to use as a plate .

and i was thinking is it really worth doing coz my engine is running fine, is there a increase in power or responsiveness?

i never really intended to do any engine mods to the jazz but i do like to have just alittle more punch!

we defo should all meet up at mimms it would be cool to have our own group just like the civic guys! get more people interested in the jazz!

I was thinking maybe dark smoke and a light smoke front which is just under making it just under the 30% on the front.

Yeah gonna go to HK to get some parts. i.e.

Rep mugen door sills
tail garnish
JDM rear tail lights.
Wind Visors
etc..

Haha it really is a head turner to other people because they havnt seen a sexy jazz before.. I got a guy asking me that few days ago and he looked suprised when he found it it was a jazz.
Where you source the hks exhaust from? I think thats the last thing im doing to mine but not sure which exhaust tI got for...
Thats exactly what i said when i first brought the jazz, no mods needed as its nice already, then modding started next day, really worth the hard earnt money lol.

More photo updates later

i got the exhaust from funkypower. there are loads of different exhausts out there it just depends on what you prefer. i choose this one because i dont want a loud exhaust, its ment to only to be slightly louder than stock. i wanted a j's racing one but way to much money!

in the mean time im just drooling over this pic!
