Honda Fit / Jazz

H-T Order of Merit
Damn. People already think I'm crazy having an EP3 daily driver, but I could see myself making a social statement for responsible automobiles by buying one of those.

Re: (George Knighton)
get a Smart coupe like the guy down the road from me(in Salt Lake)...it does have deustchland tags on it though.
i drove it, it was a blast...although a little unnerving with such large vehicles around and having to wait for the power to come-on.

Re: Honda Fit / Jazz (jazzy)
in malaysia it is 2nd year for jazz, now we have 2 model 1.5 idsi and 1.5 vtec. currently i own the 1.5 vtec and it is so awesome, with standard equipment it can reached 180 km/h, can anyone help me how to upgrade and reached at least 140 hp coz it is just 110 hp, the price in malaysia for 1.5 vtec is RM 101888 (RM1.00 - USD 3.80) coz the tax is high in malaysia.

I'm looking for a little econobox car. I am leaning towards the Echo Hatch (we get a hatch in Canada) but I'd hate to buy one of those and have these come out a few months later.

Re: (-KangaRod-)
My boss rallies a K20A Honda Jazz.
It is particularly competetive for his F2 Class, but unreliable. The Honda designers never expected to put the jazz through this much punishment...
Cant find any big pics, but heres a small one
Looks butt ugly.
His previous rally car was a FWD (yes, front wheel drive) F20C EG CRX.
for next season, he's thinking of ditching the jazz for a JDM EP3 to rally.

No, you can't. However, a K-series swap is apprently not too difficult.

Re: (Sushiboy)
Yep it's not too difficult. My boss trialed different engines, including H22a's etc, and the K20 slot in the easiest. Was done even without a fitting kit. For CV shafts (which i had the trial and error enjoyment of sorting out) it runs modified manual CB accord cv shafts.
