If this was mine I would make sure its says Denso on the top of MAF. Clean Maf using throttle body spray cleaner. Make sure air filter type is paper like original and that its clean and air box is not broken. The K&N filter is a poor choice for most owners letting . Also keep a good battery in ...

Well, the time has come. I am no longer a Kizashi owner. I officially sold my 2011 Kizashi Sport GTS to my nephew yesterday. I'm glad it went to a young driver so eager to learn and own a manual transmission vehicle in this era, especially the super rare and obscure Kizashi. I bought the Kizashi in ...

Hi and welcome. I recall RRM selling a universal cooler for the Kizashi but I'm not sure how available those are now or whether it is recommended. The part number you have appears to be current for the Suzuki OE part. I checked on Megazip.net and there are brand new OE CVT coolers on there for $588 ...

Congrats on getting the car. I know I provided a lot of details and the write-ups can look intense but the reality is that installing a compact LED kit these days doesn't differ much from replacing a halogen bulb. In the past, you had to deal with bulkier bulbs that might not fit, in addition to ext...

Just confirmed, the car gets collected on Monday. Does anybody have experience replacing the halogen bulbs with LEDs? in my own limited experience with my NA Miata, the LEDs last a lot longer than halogens. But with the projector headlamps on the Kizashi the tighter space within the projector could...

Congrats. Look forward to seeing it.

No worries. The forum is all about discussions on the Kizashi. As for the CVT, at least it's relatively low mileage at just over 100K. I'd still be very keen on any issues, whining noises, and check the condition of the fluid. There is a member here, Old Tech, who is a pro mechanic who works on Kiza...

Welcome bwob. Where in CA are you located? Odd eclipse of coincidence: I'm also in CA (OC) and own a Kizashi and now a Mazda that I bought last week. However, the Kizashi will likely be going to my nephew very soon who wants a manual transmission vehicle. In preparation for selling, I'll be polishin...

Welcome back Ronzuki! Been wondering about you so it's great to hear from you again!
We haven't heard from WeShoot2 in a while but as you might recall, he finally moved on from the Kizashi to a Subaru Crosstrek a few years ago. I'm sure he's tearing up trails in that thing.

I have never heard of the Kizashi until today. I'm in the market for a car and ran into this online. I absolutely love the look. I did some research and I see nothing but excellent reviews. My only issue is the mileage...200k miles. I did read an article saying, "they could reach up to 200k.&q...
