Gogi bhai,

Am happy you are liking the car. As discussed I think the very first thing you need to do is change the clutch, trust me you will enjoy the car even better, and remember to get the alignment done.

Congrts V-16.Alloys and tyres looks really good.

akshay1234 · 14th November 2007, 08:34

Jiggy

Any suggestions on which clutch would be ideal for the Swift?

viper · 14th November 2007, 10:04

Hi,

you can go in for the Exedy Performance Clutches stage 1 or stage 2 as per your requirements.

v-16 I stand corrected mate

. Un-fortunately when I picked up my S-drives I never found the 55 profiles.

Once again good luck.

Rtech · 14th November 2007, 11:37

Heard about how this car is moving. I can't wait to try it out Gog's! And that red/black combo looks goooood.

faithless_1984 · 14th November 2007, 11:37

Congrats V16 ,the rims look good and the mods list is great.

khaadu75 · 14th November 2007, 11:43

Rt @ we waiting for you to test drive her and give us a detailed report on how she moves .

Like a lot of other swifts ... the list of mods seem kewl but the BIG QUESTION is if she will move unlike a lot of other swifts we know of .

Cheers

toiingg · 14th November 2007, 12:23

Gogi G, I just love the new rims. Great choice.

Waiting for the exhaust note wala video.

Dippy · 14th November 2007, 12:32

Fantastic Stuff Gogi. The car looks wicked in that Red black Combo. Hope to know the list of mods too. What a difference a set of wheels can make to the looks

Akshay Beta....Thanks..with what the carbon fire sticker costs i can happily add a few extra horses to the Swift, but i agree itll look hot, then again im more about it performing hot than looking hot.

Attention Viper, Attention Viper:

Robeeen, Anytime buddy.

Thanks guys for all the comments. Thanks Jiggy for all the help and assistance and the long chats regarding what needed and needs to be done and most of all for letting me whack your rims.
Jitu, thanks for your sms and help too.
You know even when one is sure what one needs to be done one always looks for advice from colleagues and fellow enthusiasts. Thanks everyone

Now for the exhaust note. Please dont expect anything dramatic coz i wanted it this way. The softer the better. I had to get up close to the pipe end to get a really loud sound. Its new and the sound will dampen further and change with the formation of carbon.
The following exhaust note videos are dedicated to NikiBusa the exhaust crazy team mate.

Looks hot Gogi! Let us know how much of a difference the mods made to the performance.
Is the exhaust note louder than on Phoenix, or softer?
