Re: Soon to be SJ owner!

Thanks, It's cool for now man, I'll need to drive it first and see what it's like :D I've been watching absolutely loads of off-roading videos. extremely popular in Japan.

Re: Soon to be SJ owner!

Oh yeah, the low range is very very low! I've got a nice steep hill just up the road from my house I can go and test it. I never even thought of changing the transfer box... it's so obvious to me now. I'll go chuck the ratios into the calculator and see what differences it makes. It's got taller tyr...

Re: Soon to be SJ owner!

Thanks I'm using an importer in the Northeast (BHP Imports who I used 2 years ago go bring over a Suzuki Alto) to do the legwork for me. I won the car at auction for its reserve price (about £2900). plus de-registration fees and shipping it's about £4200 total for it to leave Japan. Shipping is via ...

Soon to be SJ owner!

Hey everyone, I'm Martin I'm bringing in an SJ30, fancied something a bit different from the norm! I'm sure I'll be frequenting this forum often when it arrives.
