My Jimny from Trinidad & Tobago

Is that a 660cc turbo JDM Jimny?

a jimny for christmas :ohmy: im lucky if i get a pair of socks :laugh:

nice clean motor just needs mud now

Thanks for the warm welcome folks, greatly appreciated. I come from the Samurai era, and have a fully modified rig for offroading, my daughter is slowly coming into driving age, and she loves offroading, so what better first vehicle than a 4x4 trail ready rig!-)

Hey SOTA, yes this is the turbo jimny model.

So far this engine is quite a performer on this slightly modified Jimny, the gear ratios are suitably matched to the engine.....def not a low end torquer though, but can spin the 31"s easily on the trails., 4H..two persons in the vehicle. . Currently on the highway, 31's , i get max 130km with a slight tailwind:) .

i find im always up in the 3k-4k rev range. and now ive got a steering stabiliser im happy to do 70mph again

turbos produce their power higher up in the rev range, it might be an idea to fit a supercharger for the lower end. if setup right youll get power from the blower at 2k-3.5k or there abouts

I'm lucky if I get anything... despite having paid for it and the postage costs ontop.

A rear bumper would be nice

Where do you get them bonnets from, or it a mod you have to put on the original bonnet and get if fillets and painted ?


Steve.

Hi, and welcome. Nice Jimny! Wish we had the turbo models over here. What part of Trinidad & Tobago are you from? I have family around San Fernando and Penal. Used to enjoy going for rides in my uncles white Samurai over there.
