I hope that is the fitted price @$1400 we do a 40mm spring lift with new struts for the rear @$700+GST not fitted but they only take about 2hrs @ $70/hour can freight kit to you if you like? Have driven an escudo with a calmimi kit (i think 3 1/2" lift overall) was pretty good but he still had ...

Sorry dude i beg to differ, put a jimny chassis beside a SJ chassis then tell me how different they are. The main north south beams (Rail road) are all but identical and the new parts listings for both has heaps of cross over bits, right down to engine mounts

pandasport

true

they look good from far but far from good, once you get up and have a bit of a scratch around you realise they have been done with price as the main driver.

pleased you've had a good run out of Trepadors

pandasport

... they don't look at all like a quick conversion has been done. I'd say the trepadors are a good choice -- . i hope you are joking?? go and have a breif look at one close up, some of them are absolutley awful. I am amazed they can Cert them...... take one perfectly suitable Jimny that Suzuki Japa...

Interesting this.... have just talked to my local suki dealer, he claims there are several types coming which we knew A couple of them must have the G13 engine which would prevent it from being registered due to emmisions. Well deck and cab chassis types. These are being sold mostly through the Bike...

pandasport

I have sold a few of these... mid ninties ones not new, they are Maruti Gypsies with the badges changed, basically a SJ410 made under licence in India with some random bits...... Samurai guards, SJ413 Springs, 410 interior, 410 axles and diffs i think (could be wrong but have swapped a heap of this ...

Have a client who wants to make his 2L V6 Escudo (1995ish) into a diesel not fussed which stable the engine comes from but is thinking WL-t (mazda/ford) or something similar don't ask why!!! he just wants to ?!? has anybody else gone down this road and are there any reccomendations other than "...

pandasport

whats the story with the exhaust?? has it got holes in it or is it just camera tricks?

pandasport

thats a nifty idea.... ugly, but nifty... no dramas with it?? i still don't think its going to need one. The proof will be when i drive it properly, so long as i can increase the leverage it should be good as gold. the other benefit of course is better feel, more direct braking and less sh@t hangin ...

pandasport

oh yeah nah the brakes will be terrible at best!!... the plan is to increase the leverage value on the pedal (did this many years ago on a rally car after removing the booster and it gave good pedal feel (boosters remove a fair bit of feel) without the dramas of heaving the boot into it every time y...

pandasport

good work!! thats the sort of stuff that sticks with you for life.

pandasport

oh and i'm sure manual and automatics have different ratios

pandasport

as for the crossover, it was very easy and incredibly cheap.... however i would recommend buying something suitable from one of this sites friends as although this is going to work and "my" certifier is happy with it yours might not be. however it is 2 factory left hand arms, remove both f...

hi everyone used a really tasty 8v sigma motor, 4G63T has a decent factory power figure nothing incredible but i had a complete car there so after discussing putting a factory 1300 in it and realising i would have to change the mounts etc i thought perhaps i should go bigger and put a 4AGE in.... th...
