Outer Limits 4x4 Board

while looking for scale suzi models(1:10 1:16 etc) i came across this.. throw in a name, get some more numbers up.. Who knows when we might see the rebirth of 'The zuki'.

http://www.petitiononline.com/SuziTech/petition.html

sign let them make a real 4x4

been round for a few years as well.

Saw this one ages ago. I dont get how you can 'sign it' online?, you could just sign it 10 times with different names.

I generally agree with what they want, and it is a nice concept, however I think we have either buckly's or no chance!

N.B.: DO NOT send us the new Jimny - we WON'T buy it! (Low torque engine, even less wheelwell room than an SJ, poorly articulating link suspension, plastic everywhere, low slung plastic front and rear fascias, a weak low range, non-removable doors, no soft top, etc.).

Wait till a proud Jimny owner sees this, their going to explode , I tend to agree with it though; I hate plastic, and think simple is far more effective.

Yep they pretty much described a wheeler's wet dream...

Wow.........2700 signatures since I signed back in 2002

At this rate (around one and a half a day) we should have enough support by the time I am too old to drive.

Great idea, I do believe that a "true offroad vehicle" still has a market.

So what did you find?
I couldn't find crap all

there was one about someone fabbing up their own, which would be sweet to do!! other than that, lots of matchbox 1:48 and smaller..

there was also a tamiya jimny i think..maybe?

Thats one of the ones i was looking for josh, nice one

have you done your build up yet?? did you 'play' with the build up? different wheels/tyres, lift, soft top?
shame they dont come any larger.. a 1:8 or 1:10 would be ideal... actually Perfect, but ah well, out comes the pencil and graph paper...

nah i didnt play with i was thinking about buying another one to play with.
not sure how i could modify it. i will get a pic tonite.

Josh

I know I wouldn't be able to afford a suzuki with all of that stuf done to it.

roll cage, harness, diff locks, fold down windscreen, removable doors, flat panels, external hinges.
mirrors on body to facilitate removeable doors.
switchable airbags.
stainless steel hinges and hardware


this thing would be the HSV GRANGE of suzuki and propably cost just as much. It also would just look like modded sierra.

enjoy

Found a heap of 'toys' but nothing really 'scaled' certainly cant find the homemade, sheet metal model!
