brand new here,
Just introducing myself,
I'm Raf form Belgium, 32 years old,
I've always driven Honda,
I still have 2 Accord for the moment, and recently I bought a City (called Jazz in Belgium/Europe)
Not a turbo, just the 1.2 engine, ER1 motorcode with 56hp
Reason why I'm here?
I want to learn more about the turbo version,
and looking if someone can help me with the chassisnumber of a City Turbo model to check with Honda for parts.
Some pics:
How I found it abandonned in a field beginning of September 2014
Few weeks later at home:
You can see, some work to do, but it's a restauration project for me, so me very happy
As car stood still for over a year,
first I started cleaning more parts: (all very dirty)
- asstreys
- a whole bag of trash
- cleaned airfilter wirth K&N products
- these on the wheels (don't know how you cal it in english)
In the meanwhile, I'm checking to get all things in order with customs for the import of this car.
2 weeks ago, on a saturday morning,
with friends I gave the motor a check-up,
runs great (It's Honda motor afterall)
new oil, checked the brakes, checked the underbody,
Conclusion
need some spare parts for the front (already found them, waiting for my pick-up)
Exhaust has a big hole also (already found replacement, waiting for my pick-up)
In the afternoon, my grilfriend and I cleaned all our cars, including the Jazz.
A whole different view allready.
If you like, I'll keep it updated here about the restauration.
have to upload some more pics of the motocompo when you can. Mine's still on it's way from Japan in a container.....
