Hello from New Zealand

Post by suzukisport » Mon Dec 10, 2012 8:18 am

Hi there. Thought I would introduce myself here as im new and came across this forum while doing some research.
I live in Whangarei in New Zealand which is about 2 hours North of Auckland.
I've had a few Suzuki's over time, SJ413's, Vitara's and Samurai's and I have recently sold my road legal coil Samurai.

Anyway this is our current truck that we have built from the ground up many times.
In short:
Ute chopped tray back Vitara Body
Toyota Landcruiser Prado diffs and chassis
Supercharged V6 Holden motor
and heaps of other goodies.
We mainly use it in competition here is New Zealand.
Here are a few pictures,

Welcome to SCUK smart looking motor. Even if a lot of it isn't Suzuki. Still looks like one lol.

Pics look good. Supercharged V6 must knock some power out.
