New from the Country of chocolate !

Hi dear All,

First of all, please apologise for my poor english...

So said, a few words about why I'm new here :

I'm the happy owner of a '18 Honda Jazz Dynamic. It's almost the same car as the JDM RS. I'll try to post some pics to show you the beast...

Mods done are :

- 16x7 ET45 Japan Racing JR11 wheels.
- HKS Super air filter.
- HKS Super Silent muffler.

This Jazz is a 6 MT, with a few OEM options...

Thanks ! Switzerland is a nice country for sure, with some specialties, like 4 national languages (Germain, French, Italian and Rumantsch)...

I'll be in the USA in 2 month, in New York

Swiss supermarkets have an entire aisle of chocolate, the way American supermarkets have an entire aisle of soda.

They win.

From The Land of 32 flavors and then some......

That " If It's Not Jap, It's Crap" sticker would get my car destroyed.
Some guy in Ford or Chevy pick-up, would pull out a sledgehammer and "Remove It" for me.

Luckily, here, the majority of people even don't pay any attention to the stickers on cars... Plus we don't have any car makers, so it helps a lot...

So, I've had a close look to the HKS Super air filter in the airbox tonight.

Please stay away from that crap !!!!! It filter almost nothing ! The inside of the airbox (AMM side), is dirty like hell !

I've used that crappy thing for 5000 km...I hope my engine is not too worn now...

It let the dust go through ! Even the small particles, like small parts of straw are going through that s...t !

The inside of the airbox is covered by dust also...

So, I've installed yesterday my brand new Tein Endura Pro Plus schocks. They're set at 10 clics front and 8 rear.

They absorb so well the bumps I'm falling in love !

They match perfectly my RS-R superdown springs.
