Nice. It looks great. Also looks like you've taken the spacers off.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Thanks guys!

Yeah, it is "road legal". Its like my wifes car! :lol: :lol:

She is pissed a bit since i still did not get rid of my previous projects. heh
But now with Jimny next "touch" is engine. Will mod the engine! This way will prepare kit for all guys arund the world that DONT want to do swap's! We did already do chassis dyno testing and engine dyno testing. Thru those 2 test's together we find out also parasitic losses in their real state. It is not calculated from chassis dyno like many shops does! BTW. we have Mustang Dynamometer Gladiator, one of most repetitive chassis dyno capable of over 1000 BHP and Land and Sea DYNOMite water thoroid dyno for engine testings capable of almost 2000 BHP.

So next step now is proper development of that poor lil engine to squeeze more torque somehow! Maybe turbo, maybe G-compressor as they are a bit smaller then Roots or....

Seems at the moment that there is very lil torque to take out from as it is config without putting massive amount of money into a stroke kit and so on. Coolest thing will be to have engine that can climb you up on 900 RPM like my Defender does or Sahara. Defender is diesel and Sahara is V6! :brows: :brows:

Will find sometime next week and keep you posted! Thanks again guys!

Hey everyone!

I must first again apologize to not having some time. Busy as always... but now... TADAAAA! Did install locker, new lift kit installed, second battery and now preparing to install flexo-solar panels to run my fridge and some other stuff. Was been also rolling again on the roof and pulling out some friends from their roofing session. hehe

Cheers!
Just noticed this. All very nice but 760bhp from a 1.6? You are nudging Veyron power there. Only need another 240. Seriously, come on now.
If it ticks over...leave it

It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out
