Honda Fit ( CEZA ) maayos ba?

[emms1121]

I have been to Sta. Ana, Cagayan and contemplating on buying honda fit as 2nd car. Any advice on this unit? Meron palang 4wd nito na 1.3 at dami pagpipilian puro sariwa pa.

[ghosthunter]

imported Honda Fit? converted RHD to LHD?

[emms1121]

Yes sir. Converted ito.

[ghosthunter]

Yes sir. Converted ito.

unless everything was converted to LHD, it might just be a hassle.

everything should include:
-hood, trunk, gas-cap release levers,
-AC controls
-dashboard (not the chop-chop style)
-side mirrors (RHD version are angled differently)
-headlights (RHD version are angled differently)
-if A/T, the A/T shifter should be LHD version, not just a rotated RHD shifter handle.

Thanks sir GH. Ang procedure kasi doon you have to pay a reservation for a RHD unit na napili mo. After 1 month saka mo babalikan. May plaka na at converted. I think I can't be assured na maganda nga pagka convert pag ganito sistema. May narinig din ako na bawal na putol sa mga mechanical parts. Dapat daw original left hand drive na pyesa na gagamitin sa pagconvert. Totoo kaya ito?

Only by paying them would you find out if you can trust their word.

If they can not be trusted, it would already be a month too late to get your money back.

Basically you are paying for a product you haven't seen.

I would rather spend more money on a local unit that I can see and inspect before buying.

+1.

I'd love to see the hack job they're doing with the electric steering rack... Weld. Weld... oops... we accidentally shorted out the servo...

Also consider:

You're buying a 1.3 AWD? Automatic?

If so, the automatic transmission in the JDM Jazz/Fit isn't the same as the CVT in the old one. Of course... this means it doesn't suffer from CVT issues... but if and when it breaks, there are no parts locally for it, as it's not the same as the one in the old City, the City/Jazz that came out with the CVT or the new five-speed City/Jazz.

And even if you're not buying AT... there's the AWD. Absolutely no parts locally. You're reliant on a Cagayan or specialist importer to bring in parts if it breaks. The rear suspension will be slightly different and may need different parts when it eventually goes on our local roads.

Annnnnd.... AWD is great in a car like the Mitsubishi Evo... whose 300 hp roasts tires when it's installed in a FWD Lancer... and really needs the extra traction provided by AWD. In a small, underpowered car like the Jazz? All it'll do is make the car heavier and suck gas.

Just buy a local 1.3 MT Jazz. Great economy. Parts are readily available. No major maintenance foibles.

Thanks guys for the advise. I guess I have to forget about my plan .

how come honda here doesnt sell and introduced the honda jazz 4x4 units here? I saw few unit on the road w/ a starting plate no. of B, thats why I'm kinda confused.

For the reasons I stated above:

An AWD Jazz will be more expensive, more costly to maintain, heavier, slower and much, much less economical than a regular FWD Jazz. With no benefits except perhaps the ability to take off faster from a stop in the snow.

Errh... don't ask me why we need AWD CR-Vs and Foresters, either, because that one still baffles me. We did climb out of a sandy ravine using our CR-V's AWD. But we only went in because I saw it as the only chance we would ever have of trying it out.

the other may nakasabay ako sa honda SPA, magpapaayos ng honda jazz nya tawag nya jazz japayuki version i look at it plates starts w/ letter B. may problema ata sa suspension.

*TS

at port irene,sta. ana cagayan



sa labas kami nagpark

[voltscastillo]

320K ba? kala ko mga 250 lang, pasyalan ko sana bago mag november.

magkakano yung mga 4wd models?

[jmpet626]

meron palang AWD na jazz? Same displacement din gamit?

[ben_david19]

all I can say is..

buy a 2nd hand local Jazz out there and change the Jazz badge into Fit period. Ricey yes but aside from that no issues on RHD-LHD convertion. AWD, who needs it anyway, you won't do any offroad on that vehicle.

Siguro pang snow sa japan kaya may awd sila. Kaya pala dumadaming jazz sa daan, at may nakita nga akong "B" nagsimula ang plate at "Fit" ang badge, orig pala yun hindi wannabe

pwede ka naman tumawad sa kanila. noong nagtanong kami 320k sa 1.3a/t awd. saka isang shop pa lang napagtanungan namin. no plans of buying kami kaya hindi na kami nagcanvass.

people are buying kaya siguro ang dami ding fit andun, yung iba on the spot pwede mo ng bilhin at iuwi, yung iba on the process of conversion pa. problema lang pag nailabas mo na no warranty.
