Yeah nice and tall......

If you check the rego it's probably registered as a "Calmini" rather than a "Suzuki"

Buy mine.... :D But it aint on 33"s just 31".

If you want a woman to drive it dont put it on 33"s on stock axles.

(Sexist but true) :P


It's on and off for sale... there's a guy tossing up his twin lockered and rockoppered but lightly rolled late model sierra at present...... versus unrolled vit....

Much as the sierra is more capable off road it's such a piece of puss ON road compred to the vitara its always gonna be a 50/50 chance if I sell it or not.

:D

I think it was taken back to the point that you no longer require the "stopper" bolt for the accelerator pedal because the floor comes right up to there. :cool:

I've got the OME lift with heavy duty coils and 20mm packers on my lwb and a 50mm bodylift going on soon. Looking to run 235/85R16 if I can find some 16x7 rims at the right price, love some GV steel rims if anyone knows of any.

I've had a few issues to fix recently (eg CV's) with the front end and now a cheap widetrack axle turns up.


Welll... just had the last house inspection this week so that gives me 3 months to do the axle conversion.


Do I or don't I?????

There's a guy on Zukiworld who's working on some pretty serious CV's. Be nice to have something like that in the Vit along with a GV steel housing. I like the IFS for on the road and if Iwas going to do a SAS, I think I'd rather have coils than leaf but leaf is a hell of a lot easier to do, but then again it might just be better to change vehicles. Have a look at the topic: Almost UNBREAKABLE CV-Who's interested?

I'm waiting for the owner of said widetrack axle to tell me he still has it and I can come and get it. I sent him an email saying I want it but he hasnt responded yet.


I made my mind up and it WILL begin happening if he still has the parts :D

Otherwise I wait until the next one comes along.
