i would be happy with a stable 60. that way if i needed to i could go on carriage-ways.

yes twiss.. think i will get down to you and sort this bastard out.

sometimes i just want to pack it all in and sell the lot. get a jimny. and leave it standard.

Don't... get... a... jimny...

You'll just break it and not be able to fix it :P

Sjs are sooo easy. No sensors or ECU is the key part!

We defo need to sort it out, you should be able to get 60 out of it no problems. You do need to lower it though russ.
it's just too high to be stable.

Either that or but 12" wide tyres on it... but then you'd definitely need a bigger engine!!!

looks like im going have to revert the sus back to SPUA.

cant even remmber how that goes.....


example.. i have procomps on bacl but they are mounted to axle and not the plate where them u bolts go through..



things like that.



the other option..... keep saving.. get another that doenst have rain getting in or holes in floor.... and stupid shit liek that..... a decent one.... with a diesel lump.

then break mine for bits.. and sell it on....

meh... its hard...

X2 on don't get a Jimny, I don't know what :suzuki: were thinking but they seemed to downgrade the transmission.

no.1 The transfer boxes are crap and weaker than an Sj one

no.2 the CV joints and shafts in the front axle are smaller than a 1.1 ford fiestas :roll:
