Where do you buy silverstone tyres in oz?
Just curious about their prices over there.
Links links please

ok, then it is a common g13bb engine. the g133bb hasn't any crankshaft sensor but it has the camshaft sensor positioned in the left back of the head. i would check it... the cranckshaft sensor has been introduced in the 2001-onwards jimny engines with double camshaft and is another source of problem...

that is just an easy solution that does not alter anything in the ecu.
for sure it fixes the effect but does not solve the cause.

You have a Series 1 and you are experiencing the 'Series 1 Hiccup'. This is due to a faulty crank angle sensor, which will need to be replaced. In the meantime, when it happens (generally in top gear at around 90-110kph) just push your clutch pedal in, tap the accelerator twice then release the clu...

I think your right. i've just bought one from suzukistore about $120.00 havn't fitted it yet. mine broke down under low spead load when it got hot under the bonnet. it is correct. one simple way to check if the camshaft sensor is gone, is to put some water on it when the engine problem appears. eng...

if you have a g13bb engine (that with single camshaft) i would suggest you to check and eventually replace the camshaft position sensor.

on the g13bb engine you can manually modify the idle using the register on the throttle cable.

you can't build a 4,16 "rocklobster" using that set of pre-1984 sj 410 gears to mate with samurai1300 gears.

save your time and get a 4,16 kit from usa, they are pretty cheap now.

yes, get a jimny

hi zukiny,
i think arb is the only locker available for the jimny front axle.
I have used it for almost 3 years and performed well but i experienced some cv joint failures.
i suggest you to junk the welded diff and put an open diff in the front if you don't want to get an arb.

not made by tim hardy but i think this could help you anyway...

is this a cd or paper format?

i did a 1,5" bl, i used nylon spacers and took me almost 12 ours to do the job

hey zukiny,
it's good to hear from you.
if you need more hp and you have a spare ecm, you could ship it at this guys
http://www.digitaltuning.ch/english/index.html
and they will do the trick (+ 10 hp).
but again, once you will have your new gears fitted in the t.case, i bet you won't need more power.
keep us informed on your progress...

I think you might have misunderstood trialjimny's post.... he refers to "specific tools" i.e... Suzuki special service tools I am guessing. I figure you will want to work with the factory service manual, so at least you can see what the SST looks like and make a descision if you can use a screwdriv...

yep,
i think it would be difficult to feel the difference when you drive it...

not an easy job,
you need specific tools and if your friend does not have mechanical skills i would suggest to take the jimny to a 4x4 shop to get the bearings replaced.

2.511/2.123=1,1827 =) a 410 t-case on a coily sierra/samurai gives 18,2% more reduction in low. swapping the t/case is not a bolt in job and it is very likely that will cause a lot of vibes.at least this is what i found when i tried to put it on my jimny. a 410 t/case on a WT sierra is bolt in, you ...

hey, nice avatar!

read the last part of this

http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/PHP_Modul ... hp?t=25409

the samurai t/case is 2.268 low, the 410 t/case is 10,7% shorter in low.

i can't see the pics actually,
but I guess my green jimny was the only one with a roof tent in val d'isere...
unfortunately i don't build any gear set for vitara's, but if you are interested in the jimny gears please contact me via e-mail.

[quote="k44rll"]i just got back from the Salon 4x4 show in val d isere, France [quote="k44rll"]

this is funny...
i was there too, i also tried the new diesel version, the gold one driven by a guy.

welcome pastor!
did you use the rear vitara ome coils+shocks for the front axle and the front jimny coils for the rear?
cheers

[quote="roundcruiser"]Trail Jimny I found the wire coming out of the tranny is lower then Serra's and rather exposed. What have you done with yours? - as i wrote to you before, cut it, re-route it inside the car and connect it to a switch, doing this way you protect the wire and you also g...

I like almost everything but stock gears are definitely too high for off road use. if you lift it 3", put one or two lockers and add a low gearset, it will take you almost everywhere. if i had to buy another i would go for auto trans. cheers Sweet, what are the specs on your jimny? shortened front ...

very easy.

1) cut the two wires that comes out from the 4wd switch in the front of the t/case
2) put an electrical switch on your dash
3) connect the wires to the switch

or, if you prefer, it's the 1998-2000 jimny engine.
are you going to swap the tranny too?

hi guys, i am giacomo and i am from italy. my experience with jimny gearing started with the apio planetary gear pros it works great off road cons it is not cheap it lowers only the low range and, if you have tyres taller than 215/75/15, driving in 2high/4high it is a pain i foung it a little noisy ...
