Let's see how long before...
...we see highly-modified Fit/Jazz models in the USA once the car arrives here next Spring. 
I wouldn't be surprised somebody gets the bright idea of putting in a real DOHC i-VTEC I-4 1.5-liter engine into the Fit/Jazz and turn the car into a de facto "Type R" model, something I believe has already been done in Japan a few years ago. It'll certainly be fast, that's to be sure.
If the Fit/Jazz lives up to its promises, this will be the car that replaces my current 1998 model year Civic HX CVT coupé.

Hi guys,
just registered on your very informative forum
Do hope that you guys could help me make my new vtec honda jazz as good looking as what you've been posting in the 'net
I started with my silverstone jazz by upgrading
1. wheels, 17 inch black in silver concept one mags
2. Audio system
pioneer head unit 7750, four multiaxial speakers(150w)
boom box by Pit shop (cabanatuan, Philippines) with a kicker sub and sherwood amp.
could you please help me find a shop, preferably in Q.C. banawe, that specializes on jazz accessories. e.g. Cold air intake, exhaust, tailgate garnish, spoiler.
how do I join your club here in the Philippines? any upcoming events?

Thanks! Rim size is 16". Tire size is 195/50/16. Yes no rubbing. You have to put spacers in the front wheels thought because it hits the calipers. I got it from a friend who has a contact in Rota.
