The JA11, JA12, JA22 and JB23 are all Kei cars... but the JA51, JB31, JB32 and JB33 are not

So good to hear someone say that, as I thought I was the only one who did.ScottieJ wrote:Tbh I think they are the ugliest front end Suzuki came out with on the SJ series, the dash in them is even worse
That said it doesn't look as bad with the older bonnet and scuttle panel.
SJ should be square, flat fronted
Sid James gone but never forgotten
Jimny 1.6 not as good as an SJ but still good

There is a guy on Facebook who sells a fibreglass version of that grill that will fit the earlier Samurais.

Re: What model of Sammi is this??
Spain & Portugal did a slightly squarer front with out the nice curved bottom corners
I know from personal experience none of the parts fit the UK Sammis.
I had to buy the wings, top & bottom slam panels with support braces, Lights & some other bits & bobs as well as the grill. All in easily 100 Euros. The lights are a lot smaller & even take motors to adjust their angles (An unnessary expense)

Re: What model of Sammi is this??
I've asked Jesse who runs ss2.0 for help. I met him last month at Gonzookin..... Just thought I'd drop that in . Hopefully he'll reply here.
I'm seriously interested in this grill.
PS. Vids of....... GonZookin 2016 on youtube

You wont like my tin top now thenAnton wrote:Was the JA12/JA22 the Kei car? 660cc turbo?twiss wrote:The white one is a Jimny JA11... which I believe was the only model with leaf springs and the face lifted front clip.
The silver one is either a JA12 or a JA22. Think the only difference was the engine, as the JA12 had an F series and the JA22 had a K series.
It looks to me that this front grille wouldn't fit on older models - I think I see it overlapping with the front wings. I think if you wanted to fit it, you'd need the whole front clip, not just the grille.
I like the fact that it's got the indicators up and out of the way, but other than that I'm with Scottie. SJ410 grille is best looking, followed by SJ413 and the Samurai. Dead last though is the one with square headlights:
