10th day of cny already?
wow, it’s the 10th day of cny already!?
spent a good week in jb with my folks.
cny atmosphere was about the same every year, with people polluting filling the air with firecrackers and amazing fireworks everywhere. we literally didn’t need to buy tickets to enjoy free fireworks at the comfort of our own car porch.
this year, the only difference was we drove our new car back home! my jb’s home already had 3 cars; my dad’s jeep, his old benz and my old iswara.
on jb roads, fit/jazz were hardly seen (or it could be the cny holidays where people go back to their hometowns). driving the fit on jb road were a bit scary due to the fact it’s a sg plate. people would look. filling up petrol in jb is cheap! the tank left half and i went to fill up to full tank on the day i return to sg. it was about 20l, cost me RM36, which is equiv to $15!
recently, i’ve been browsing some local forum on fit/jazz cars. i’m very tempted to add a spoiler and most likely change the stock springs. when i read further, seems that changing coilovers are “better” than changing springs alone. springs, car lowered-look; coilovers, lowered-look plus improved handling and shocks. in either case, the aesthetics of the car would improve slightly especially the gap between the tyres and the fenders. did a quick photoshop on the fit to see how it looks like. top: stock springs’ height, approx 6 fingers gap. bottom: preferred height 2-finger gap. =\ i’m poisoned.
