only a man who is very secure with his sexuality drives a hatch! hehe

I'm driving my gf's little red corolla while mine is being worked on... its hilarious... people drive so much more aggressively around you when your in a little/slow car!

I like the yellow too, looks clean and modern... damn that's good fuel consumption, I should man up and start walking to work to save some money too...

how good are the paddle shifters in the jazz!! almost no lag between changes (anyone who has driven a bmw tiptronic will know what im talkin about)

yeah - thats what i liked about the vti jazz - changed as soon as u hit the paddle - no lag whatsoever! the mazda 2 has a really bad lag - even with the tiptronic.......CVT transmissions eliminate all that crap :thumbsup:

Lol thank god you didnt get a swift. I learnt to drive in one and hated it, looks gay, terrible drive. Jazz is... well jazzy XD

Well yeah, the second hand one didnt look good - and space wise the jazz had heaps of space, where as the swift had very little. Bit more power in the swift, but the jazz is just such an easy car to drive.

Yeah man, not everyone gets a chance to buy a brand new car!

I like the HONDA Jazz too man, wouldn't mind getting a brand new small car like that in the future

Can't believe the fuel economy, thats just crazzzy

ahah yeah, new car smell ftw!!! should serve me well when driving to pakenham and back...25000 klms a year

Very nice and clean for a daily.. Man i gotta buy a new car just once, gotta love that new car smell :(

thanks man :domokun:

Hows the fuel??

Fuel is 6-6.1ltrs per 100 at the moment (thats with a bit of hwy and mostly city) - I will know the hwy driving once i start going to pakenham and back.....apparently its 4.8 ltrs per 100 for hwy driving - but i think it will be more like 5.7 odd - half tank so far and I have done 360klms (thats about 21 ltrs)

hehehe.....tru dat! its only a daily/work car anyway - no point in getting a big beefy commodore ss or something......should be interesting to see what crap i get for it when i take it to work tomorrow :P

you live near me, i know your car :)

i've been thinking about getting a bitch car for a while, do maybe 25-32,000km PA, and the stagea uses TRIPLE the fuel the jazz doess around town and freeway respectively, no matter how i drive... or go to an s14, mates get ~500km per tank with mixed driving.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
