K24 Honda Jazz - What’s it like to drive? (Honda Fit) ((rigid chassis)) 

I've taken the plunge and setup a Patreon account. I'm not sure what will come of this yet but if you want to support me on there you can now: www.patreon.com/dannydc2 Cheers

Honda should have made a si version of the fit with a k series from the factory they would of sold like hot cakes

With wider tires, better valved coilovers, slightly more camber all around and bigger brakes, it definitely feels less of that "you shouldn't be going this fast with this car" 😊

The good thing about this car is that it's insanely affordable

Torque Steer. I had a turbo starlet with a t25 etc. Used to change lanes on the freeway when I put the boot in. It only weighed 850kg 😄

I'm still crazy over this GD model after all these years. This one sounds exactly how I would make mine to be! Thank you for this video!

DannyDC2 for top gear presenter

The ultimate sleeper watched its journey from start to finish now you have driven that you need to get the S2000 out

My favourite thing about this car isn't even how pointless(ly awesome) the swap is, but the colour and stance! Nice to see Dan's approval of the MK6 Fiesta too, having two myself 👍

Ahh yes finally Dan is doing reviews, this will be a funny series! looking forward to it :)

Well done mate ! Enjoyed this and look forward to more.

Would be great to see more car reviews, thoroughly enjoyed

Love the honest car review, I was tempted to do this conversion but after watching this, think id give it a miss 👍👍

Awesome video! Looking forward to your next car review!

Best dual cam on the little circle better than any other youtubers top man dan

Look forward to more reviews Dan, bring it on!

I absolutely love this, I've always said the Jazz had the potential to be a wicked little Honda. Now with this motor my dreams have come true 😏😆. Definitely love it though, looks stunning too!

Sick ass jazz !!!! Thank you for sharing this awesome video!!!!

Great video Dan.

Woah lovely jumper , wish mine still looked like that . Good bud as always lad 👍🏻

The pickup drivers reaction would be great, Honda jazz flying by😂

That's been jazzed up 🤣

Pete deffo builds some cool stuff, loved the 3rd gen review a few years back, followed his builds since, good shit.

Sounds & looks absolutely mega, love it

This is sick always love the jazz

Bit late to this one, but liked the style of this one Dan. A K24 Jazz is certainly very fruity too! As you say, you know it’s a K24 when it’s got the orange stick of truth!

Great review great car. I was in the e60 5 series pull out of brick road on sunk island when you were videoing the Jazz. Wish I had stopped now. Was tempted. Great review Dan👍

I miss these driving videos from you dan 👍👍👍

The Jazz is the best second car you can ever have. Can leave it on the street, take it up dirt rounds and basically abuse it without a care in the world. You can then flip the seats any which way depending on what you're loading in the back. It'll never handle like a double wishbone Honda, but it'll surprise a few people as you take the toog back roads home. Not sure I'd ever k swap one though. Good review, A++

I got one of these at the auctions for £175, one owner from new and full Honda service history, 98k miles on clock, I kicked it to within an inch of its life for 2 years straight without having to spend a penny on it bar put fuel in it, I only sold it as new springs for the front were more than what I paid for it.... Lol, was actually a very good handling wee car for what it was.

Cars like this make me love...cars!

Top vid Dan!

That "one road in wales" is the A4069 Black mountain pass, you should drive it Danny you'd love it...👍

More Honda fits please. Thank you very much 👍👍👍

You're brave, thrashing it on the tree lined lane!

Danny DC2, changing the face of RU-vid one car review at a time. For the better!

I’ve got a 2015 Jazz RS. Handles pretty well for what it has out back.

Really tidy example I think, love the yellow and those bronze wheels. Cool to see. Glad to say I've got an EK and been in the honda game before all these new kids joining the scene saying kswap this and that following everyone else

Any decent gala bingo car park . The best opening discription line known to man. Mint mate. Im roaring.

sounds really good

Enjoyed that, the forward view plus Dannycam was a good setup. Can we get a DDC2 discord? Might be fun to chat to like minded chaps? Ah I see there is chat through patreon

Does this mean more car reviews are coming?! Would be awesome to get some rare/different cars on the channel.

Good job bro 😎

I remember there were some swindon guys who built a Jazz to go endurance racing.. Did Race of Remembrance in it a few times, legends.

Those are the best roads I've driven love the dip from ottringham to patrington where to turn off to the left my gran was from welwick up the road great car

Problem with a lowered Fit, is that camber changes from negative to positive when you have deep suspension travel. There are some fixes for this, but overall Fits handle best at stock ride height. The same is true for RSX and EP3 - simply slamming it absolutely ruins the handling.

Love it!

One of the reSons for the inherent chassis stiffness is the floor is double skinned to hold the fuel tank under the drivers seat and built for a low floor, there are chassis stiffeners available that can increase the already stiff chassis. Mine runs a standard motor and chassis but has lowering springs and is fully probushed, it is unbeatable at motorkhana blows minis to the weeds. It handles very well for its price,

that was brilliant

Thought I recognised the car, Ottringham to Patrington road gives it away 😂 I've been behind this a couple of times and it definitely goes and sounds well

I have a 2003 GD Jazz I bought from a granny for £500 and I have to say I am really shocked at how it handles, only mods are a pod filter and wheels I had with Michelin pilot sport 3’s and the handling is just unbelievable!

Clean jazz gd ...love it ❤️

That car is absolutely beautiful

Love this

Hey Danny.🖐 Finally making it back for a quick comment. Yes sir, it's always a good time when you get up with the lads at HCR. I hope there's more where that came from. Solid review, Dan. I'd say with triple the power from standard, most reviewers would be over the top about how great everything is. This one seems very pure and unfiltered as we've come to expect from you. Sure, it's a quick car, coolest Jazz I've seen, and I think Pete has done a hell of a job for what it is, but I appreciate the honesty of your overall impressions of the car. The humour and great analogies you throw in along the way, well.👍😅 Good stuff, mate. I hope you get back to see Josh and Pete again soon. Have a good afternoon. Cheers, buddy.

YA LIKE JAZZ as a GE8 owner this make me happy

Can you do a proper review on Pete’s cl9 accord

Interesting to see an honest review on the Jazz / Fit. Too good to be true, but I would definitely still put it in the sleeper category - minus the kit.

Nice truck that

Loved the vid Dan. A bit offtopic but would you mind doing a watch collection video :D ? I think more people here would be interested. I know you have the trusty Casio F-91W and a White GSHOCK GD100WW from the older videos (don't know if you still have it).

Yes Dan

once my gearbox is sorted you will have to some and drive my standard engine'd jazz round the track

Is rock that Fit! En K20 in would be fun!

Race for pinks ?? Only joking may aswell just give you my subie after seeing that rip down the lanes 😂sweet video Dan 👌 right little pocket rocket 👍

Underrated car.

🔥i like it. Sleeper

Good vid.

Looking forward to that hair cut

Sounds real good like a Honda should

The note of that is unreal..

Hi Sir! are you from yorkshire? I'm from Hull and I don't see Honda lovers in my area unfortunately.. :/ Glad to see stumble upon your channel.

I am Thai in Thailand. Popularly placed K20 appliances. With HONDA. Brio. HONDA Jazz.

Go tell Anton to get his running asap!

These are quite popular in the tuningscene in The Philipines too

Now you have to review Josh's K swap dct S2K

love it

I already know the answer is fucking class

Probably the suspension configuration. I believe in the chassis stiffness. Spoon did open it up and take a look, I'll listen to him since he knows what he is doing. But a good chassis doesnt mean instantly a good car, maybe the suspension is the one to improve.

Always the best fit 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Fookin ace dan 👌 How much is pete after???

This vid got u a subscriber

I instantly subbed when I heard you say "that torque steered like a bitch"! XD keep up the amazing work!

🤣🤣 I've done grannies, not literally. Burst out laughing at that! 🤣🤣

LOOOOL those memes 🤣🤣🤣

damn this thing must fly.. how much do you think this car weighs ? and how much whp would you say you make ?

Those roads just outside of Hull on the way to Withernsea/ Spurn point are twisty A F. Proper driving roads.

My partner used to have a Jazz. I hated the seats, high, flat and rock hard. No idea why you'd keep them. I always hated the ride too, proper jiggly. Great little shopper though.

Whats it like to work on though? I have a same model FIT (what they are called in the us) its a manual and its really hard to find manual parts here because everyone who bought this car here when it was new was using it for a small grocery getter and not for a racing machine so they all got an auto. I have contemplated getting a k20 just for the fact that parts would be easier to find. But its also more difficult to work on than my eg because of the lack of space in the engine bay. I bet that problem would only be amplified with a larger engine. In my opinion a fit is a really good car for a daily driver. It still feels like a small sporty honda but nobody expects it to be hopped up or asks you to race or whatever so you can sort of blend in with the crowd.

I recently pulled my old playstation 3 and grand turismo 6 out from under the dust, and the first car i started with was a fit rs, i got it as a starter car, and honoustly i had a blast in it, gradually tuned it up to about 230hp, and it's so much fun, obviously not really comparable but still. Never thought that i would enjoy a car like this even if it was digital.😉👍✌️👉

Does this same guy have a k11 gen1 micra that's modified? I swear I saw this on fb market place a few months back, it was labelled a K20 swap no mention of it being 2.4 so maybe different cars but that looks so familiar

Its the set up, as this car has amazing steering

When Alan Titchmarsh says he's home alone

SpoonTunedFitUnbelievable 😂

awesome

Man that exhaust sounds amazing! Do you know what exhaust he was running?

Love it! Must be pretty quick in that light chassis?

Anything with a k24 is fun to drive lol specially if it's light

If you are ever back up at rd in scotland and want to take my almost standard dc2 out you are more than welcome. I stay less than half an hour from there.

So no fiesta like handling Glad it's still fun.

9:50 I can’t agree more! I’m so tired of culture when sport car “reviewers” just casually drive a car, accelerate on straights with happy faces and make it seems like they understand its dynamics. It’s impossible to review a sport car without reaching over its limits
