The Suzuki Swift is currently one of my favourite super minis. It looks good, runs well and the fact that it is one of the most affordable 1.5 litre Japanese made car in the market makes it even more desirable. This brand reignites Malaysian interest in Suzuki cars which for the last decade was almost forgotten by Malaysian consumers, with only the Vitara as the only known model from this small Japanese car manufacturer who is more known in the world of two wheelers.
First of all, i notice that this car is draped with carbon fibre goodies. A peek into the engine bay revealed that the original ZC21 engine is still there and Aizat is not to change it anytime soon as his car is still brand new. However, it doesn’t stop Aizat in installing a few go faster bits such as the Simota air filter with carbon air box.
The engine management is then given a boost with the installing of GReddy EW Manage Ultimate, which in fact is a highly tunable piggy back ECU. This car has a deep bass exhaust tone thanks to the custom Exhaust job which includes a Fujitsubo exhaust manifold, custom 2 inch pipe with APEXi centre bullet and a mean looking Fujitsubo twin carbon tip muffler.
The usage of carbon fibre did not stop with the engine bay and the exterior, but extends to the interior of the car. Other carbon fibre parts are the meter cluster hood and head unit cover, which definitely look good. Also present is a set of Bride Ergo II race buckets and an array of aftermarket gaguse which inlcudes Defi water and oil temperature meters, GReddy info-meter and an APEXI pen type turbo timer, all installed to give this car a real racy feel for its driver.
