When is a Feroza, not a Feroza?

Post by **Tzi** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 1:06 am

... when it looks like this!

Its a real pity its been lowered

.. with a decent set of wheels, some nice chunky muddies and some lift, it would look pretty damn special!

Hmmmm - from any angle, I just don't like it.

Thank heavens BLING and Feroza aren't usually associated.

Be interesting to see if it sells - it could be just us that don't understand the attraction of a Bling Feroza.

Lowering a 4wheel drive should be made illegal!

If only he'd spent that much money on worthwhile mods!

I'm surprised they haven't got the chrome grille to go with the wheels?

Here's another Ebay one for you all (not Daihatsu I know...) Grand Vitara with 22" alloys!

What is it about NSW?

Re the Feroza, I think this is even better than the exterior...

Can't quite make out the shifter thing - what is it ?

And if it wasn't for the fact that I dont have a clutch pedal would have to get me those pedals

and its a poverty pack too.

YUP... first thing that I noticed

... and dont knock the chrome grille... I was gonna buy that!

It would have matched my soon-to-be mirror tint quite nicely.

before mine went bye bye it decided to empty itself of the silicone fluid. First I noticed of it was a sticky puddle on the dash top. By then it had scored the inside and was useless.

With track, lift and wheels I never trusted the thing anyway - sometimes its more reassuring NOT to know how close you came....

I got rid of the WONKAMETER and fit an oil pressure gauge.

Look on the bright side - its got some droop travel which for a roza isn't that common....

those doors would smack me in the head, every time a coconut.

Post by **pigletracing** » Tue Jan 29, 2008 6:47 am

oh well, I guess those blokes are truley passionet about ferozas!!!!!!!!!
who else would spend all that $$$$$$$$ to turn a 4x4 into a HONDA CIVIC
other than a dedicated feroza addict,,,,the majority of us spend big $$$$$$
to make our rozas more uncofortable on the road,,,my 2 cents

Post by **BORN2RUN** » Thu Feb 14, 2008 6:52 pm

yeah seen it pulled the guy over had a look at it n asked for his preferd asking price-he wants 7500 but i thnk hes got a big hill to climb to get that price for it. c i dont mind the rims but lowering it n disconnectin the front diffs makes it quite useless. dont kno too honda civic to me. my 2 cents worth.

The Feroza was made to be an all around 4x4 Leisure SUV. Thats why I did not lower my Feroza, I just remained it stock because even on stock height it can tackle off road.

"Though shall not lower thy 4x4 SUV"

Even rally styled (e.g. Paris Dakar) SUVs are not lowered. IMHO

for the red bling feroza i admire the red paint job
but for the bling, im just wondering how they get rid of the manual locking hub?

i kept my feroza as stock height as possible, even the tire size
til now am looking a good 15" rims but its hard to get one here in the Philippines a set of rims that is compatible with the manual hub of the f300. except for a vitara rims

Outer Limits 4x4 Board

When is a Feroza, not a Feroza?
