Outer Limits 4x4 Board

You're the man, Luis!
Thanks pal

Thanks Everybody for all the help. I checked and my zook has the 2 o2 sensors setup. I got one of those handheld computers that check the ECU for errors and it said that my secondary O2 sensor was bad, so i guess it's because there is no cat. I think i'll either buy the MIL eliminator or install the ...

so noone here knows anything about oxygen sensor simulators, electronics or how to fool the ECU? Comeon, SOMEONE MUST know something about how to fool the ECU when you remove your catalitic converter!! My zook has a straight pipe from the headders to the exhaust with a small muffler between them ...

Thanx Man! I guess i can wait 2-3mins to warm up. I'll see if i can get that sensor in some junk yard around. Suzukis here are very popular so that might not be much of a problem. About the engines, i think we have different ones. I have the EFI 1.6 16v SOHC and you have a 2.0 16v DOHC. Wanna swap ...

BTW, who long is supposed to take for a 1.6L 16v EFI to warm up on mornings? 7-8mins? I've notices how other cars warm up much faster and STAY warm for hours after being turned off, while mine cools up in 45mins, so everytime i turn the vehicle off for more than 45mins, i gotta wait 7-8 mins until ...

My zuk gave me a brights Servce Engine Soon light so i went to service center and they told me i have to change the O2 sensor. Ever since the light came on, i've been experiencing lower gas-mileage, the engine feels slugish in the lower revs and the exhaust smells a lot like unburned gas . So i ...

hey! thanks for all the info about the engine. And Thanks for the translation website too. BTW, who owns that zook? It looks like a mix between a hummer and a mercedes benz. Is he trying to do a 10sec drag rocket or just the ultimate zuk? That guys spent some serious money on it. If any of you had ...

and the last one BTW, what does the "Canister" actualy do? That black bottle on the left of the engine? I heard it's supposed to recirculate little parts of nitrogen produced by the combustion and inject it again in the next cycle to lower the combustion temperature a bit. I disconnected it once and ...

Thanks for the input guys. As soon as i get the money, i'll change my shocks and remove the front sway-bar. The air filter? Just a "Performance Air Filter" Generic Brand, No-brand. In my country they are very popular and cheap. Below are a few pics of the engine with the filter. The filters are ...

LoL
Very observative!

BTW, that chevy logo is soon to be removed and replaced by anything with a suzuki logo.

I just hate it when someone does something and someone else takes the credit. Chevy Trackers are 100% Suzuki Vitaras, except for the twin airbags .

Droopypete: Nop, i'm one of the crazy guys from the Dominican Republic . The island between cuba and puerto rico. Sun all year long, really hot weather and plenty (trust me, plenty) of offroading places. If anyone feels like taking a vacation to the caribbean (taking your zuk with you, of course ...

Do you have any pics of your engine? Ive been looking for a small turbo for a long time but in my country they are very hard to find. Somthing like a charade or starlet turbos. How much did it cost the entire turbokit and the instalation? How much psi is it blowing?

the website says it's twin turbocharged. Spinning 2 turbos (if they're not sequential) must be a hell of a job for a 1.6. Well, that depends on the size of the turbos. I would understand 1 turbo, but 2?

that 1.6 v8 looks cool. Must rev like the devil and the sound must be very similar to a F1. 250hp sounds good. What about torque? 0 Lbft!? one thing that bothers me is the spool up of the turbos on that little thing. 1.6 litres dont have enough pressure to spin 2 turbos!! Add to that the V8 ...

Is it true that a simple resistor mod can add 15hp to my engine?? I've searched the net looking for more info and i only found that guys with suzuki hayabusas and racebikes do this. check it out and tell me if it works http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2431594999&category ...

AHh, i'm back after my top-speed testrun and here are the results: 150kmh and it still had 1200rpm to go till redline but i had to slow down because of curves and the fact that the vehicle was almost taking off the ground. The cool thing is that my speed only goes up to 140. Feels good to know your ...

150kmh and it had 1000rpm more to redline but i had to slow down to take a courve...not to mention it was starting to take off like a jet

Scary - with stock gearing I used to easy crack 160kph on my carby Vit, and still able to exceed 140kph with 30" rubber (Northern Territory only I promise you officer). That is pretty crap for your vehicle's condition and age. I am now struggling to crack 120 indicated (145kph) and even 100kph ...

Mm, a 1.3 V8 would be very interesting. It would have absolutely no lowend torque, and very little torque at high rpms. It would probably rev to 10000-12000 rpm because each cyl has 162cc, that's even less than the average atv. It doesnt seem like the kind of engine you'd like to offroad with. That ...

is your exhaust broken? if it's not why not put the $$$ towards another mod that will actually give you long term benefits and scope for growth? just my 2c worth like orange paint...... R U MAKING FUN OF ORANGE PAINT?!?!? ORANGE PAINT RULEZ!! I really cant tell if my zuk is orangish yellow or ...

my zuk is completly stock except for a performance air filter. I do 145kmh in 4rth gear @ 6000rpm . If i go to 5th, i rev down to 4500rpm and the speedo goes really slowly to 130 . But that's one of the scariest things i've ever done because my suspension (misteriously) is really really harsh and ...

Ahhh, thanks for the interpretation. English is not my native language and when SuzukiViagra said "ditch them", the first thing that came to my mind was "wow, running shockless is gonna be interesting" Dont worry about me "ricing" the car too much. My true hobby is offroading anywhere i can. I ...

Thanks guys! Just a pair of quick questions: I feel that the ride is harsh and hard, too hard for that type of vehicle . The vehicle feels more like a sports car than a 4x4. How will it feel and handle if i remove the rear shocks? What about bumps and holes? And 2nd: How many amps does the stock ...

Sup everybody. Yes, i'm a newbie , just got my zuk 2 months ago. 1998 vitara softop, 1.6 16v EFI with a performance air filter and exhaust . Front wheel travel is not so good but the rear end makes me happy. Still searching for places to test how far can the stock suspension can take me. Any cheap ...
