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

:p

Looking for a nice clean and straight LHD Jimny..... Not any more.
Got one that seems to have been magnatized and driven through the "Big Jimny Bits" parts stores too quickly so it missed a few items.

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.
