ok this is prob a very stupid question

but are suzuki samurai and suzuki sierras the same thing i have only herd of the samurai in america is there a differance betewen the to cars

Samurai is the US market name for the Sierra. Suzuki couldn't use Sierra- it was already used by GMC for their pickups.

Bear in mind that if you are parts shopping all samurai's are wide track and obviously LHD. They also had TBI injection after 1991.

And in other countries except Australia the Ford Sierra was a fairly popular mid sized car that was also swept up by Cosworth for competition. We have Samurais in New Zealand.

I'm not sure why you'd want to do that. Sliders are heavy and bulky, and there's no special parts in them - they're just mild steel - we have plenty of that here.

They're a terrible candidate for shipping as they are bulky AND heavy. By the time you ship them, you DEFINITELY could have made the same thing here for much less.

Doubletough axles, low range gearsets - that's the sort of stuff that is worth importing - it's machined, heatreated, precision stuff that benefits hugely from the increased volume in the US and can't be made here competitively.
