Re: New Jimny Sierra

We have 3 Jimny's in our club, one of which is mine (2012) and it goes everywhere. When I do get stuck it's easy to recover as it only weighs 1100kg. They use less fuel than the bigger trucks. Of course you can't carry as much stuff, but I often have 4 people in mine (2 kids under 14 in the back ...

Re: Thanks alot Bridgestone Firestone the Strand Auckland

The loudest tyres i've ever owned were bridgestone potenzas on my old rx8 (alot louder then the maxxis trepadors im running at the moment), and also the fact that they were 1200 for 4 which I reckon is ridiculous fr a car tyre, is also keeping me well away from B/F

Re: Extended diff breathers

garden hose would work but its far too big you want something around 3-5mm ID +/- you don't need anything pressure rated as your trying to keep everything at neutral pressure, you need to get them up high so they are out of the water so you don't get any back feeding and fill your diffs up with ...

And just wondering what to put on the end of the hose, where would be my best bet to buy a one way valve? Ive heard of people ...

WTB Suzuki Rims

Stock or custom not to bothered, 15 inch steel rims to fit to a jimny. Plus a spare would be good.
Preferably in the wairarapa region as can't travel to much because of work.
