I installed the simota air filter today, damn it is good. You can really feel the air being sucked in and the car is much more responsive than before. I would really recommend the simota filter to all of you guys. It is worth every cent of it  msg danny (jazzpro) for a set |

I second that... I have them installed the other day...
Damn it is good... (I know it is good the moment I saw the picture).. Sound is damn good... especially when I am back to the stock muffler.. the engine roars...when I step on it...
I can feel the different immediately the moment I drive it.. More responsive and increase in power..
The engine bay looks really good.. and blend in with the rest ..
I strongly recommend it to all the members.. it is not very expensive.. and the money well spend...
And thank you Jazzpro for supplying and installing for me..

The K&N POD is much more expensive.. Nearly double the price of the Simota.. Also, the K&N is too close to the engine... and sucking up too much hot air...
Simota is just nice, bend all the way to the right and avoiding as much hot air as possible..
If you can spend extra money to buy a K&N filter which is a better quality filter than simota, it will be better... but simota filter will do the job for now...
But seriously.. for the price.. I can't complain...

Nick,
I've asked for the K&N set before.. and apparently they dun have it here in Australia.. Rocket Industries need to ship them in from US...
Also, that set is only for the 1.4DSI Europe Jazz and haven't been tested for the 1.3 and 1.5 Aus Jazz..
The price for landed.. $3xx for the whole K&N Kit.
