I keep looking at the aftermarket bolt on tubro kit complete for $5k. Mark who owns the Suzuki website and sells all the bolt on goodies ( hey micragirl he is in Caloundra so not far to travel and pick up a few things)tells me that the "trial" Sports model has been running around for over 6...

Nothing like bolt on aftermarket performance bits. Took me about 20 minutes to rip all the original stuff off and bolt on the cold air intake. Funny reckon I can improve it even furthet with a bit of stainless steel work. Here we go, here we go.

Cold air intake

Here is Swifty with bolt on cold air intake and new rear exhaust tips coupled to a Remus full flow muffler. Certainly a bit more get up and go and Swifty now has a rumble out the back plus some induction noise. No where near all the great noises Hack makes but its a start.

There, there. Have a nice hot cuppa and a good lie down. They talk about men and how they get so attached to their wheels but nothing compared to a lot of women. You can go visit now and then. I am sure Miccy will never forget all the love, care and attention you lavished upon ( him/her?)

Spot on Cisco.Funny I have just bought 3 new Mitsibushi Tritons for work vehicles.Why Tritons? Looked at Nissan, Toyota, Rodeo, Mazda.Deal was no trade some extras such as another rear leaf spring, rear suspension air bags etc. Overall all would do the job and all around same price. The...

Sad day micragirl but at least its going to a good home. Blue Monster, White Knight have disappeared off the radar screen. Please keep posting on this site about your Swift Sports. I have not joined any Swift site as like you I reckon there is a lot of ****e posted. You, me and now Cisco...

How could we ever forget? Welcome back.

So true Yom, so true.New Mini due out late this year based on the original panel van. One door drivers side, 2 doors passangers side with fold down rear seats, barn type rear opening doors just like the original. Longer wheel base etc. If they stuff the Cooper S motor into it, now that would...

Gee Cisco after reading that report might have to trade in Swifty. No, I will wait until the cold air intake, extractors are installed and by the looks of it a performance chip not far away.Only putting on approved Suzuki after market performance parts on Swifty. Pics as soon as, please Cisco...

Are there any fully qualified car mechanics at car dealerships anymore? I think not. All have moved on to work for themselves or in W.A. are working in the mines for mega bucks. SWifty went back for its free 1000 kl service to the dealer and thats the last they will see it. Luckily found a fully...

Yom. This is the way to Perth.

If you are going that far south you might as well point the car west when you hit Melbourne and visit the Micra owners in Perth. Willing to put you up for the duration and organise a Micra meet. East meets west kinda thing. Come on it is not that far!

Yes happy birthday mate.Not a box jellyfish that stung you ? but they are not that far down the coast. No men in grey flannel suits lurking under the water, waiting, watching ?? Next birthday drop many hints you would like to go aloft in a hot air balloon.That is an experience.

Merry Xmas to all.Peace on earth( but that seems further away than ever) and goodwill to all, where ever you maybe. Even if you are not at all religious or have another faith which does not celebrate Xmas. I always think its a good time to reflect and hope that next year will bring a better year...

Yes.Heaps of ordinary Swifts but do not see many Sports.Must be around as I had to wait to get my choice of colour from the dealership. Evidently they are selling very well.

Unreal!! And original timing chain as well and Mychael I know you drive your Micra hard but that is okay as you know the diff between hard and flogging a car. Just goes to show how tough the Micra is.

No doubt you are correct Yom but I cannot get my head around not changing oil/filter for say 15,000 kl.I will stick to around 5000 kl. Old habits die hard.

Just went out and told Hack nothing to worry about.Looking at both Swifty and Hack side by side I know which one stirs my blood the most. If Swifty is in as good a condition as Hack is after nearly 12 years I will be more than happy. Hack after a wash and due to the attention to the interior and...

Gee thanks micragirl.I reckon its a spot on review.After trying them both one thing the stood out for me was the better finish/ features and just how well the Swift handled. Mine now has some 1400kl on the clock and more I drive it the better it gets.Hopefully by XMAS will have the extractors...
