OctaneJimny's SZ5 Chiffon Ivory manual.

It's only flippin' here after a dreaded 7 months wait.....

Suzuki Jimny SZ5, Manual, Chiffon Ivory.
I picked it up last Wednesday and I dropped the car off at home then went on holiday so unfortunately haven't been able to have a play until this weekend. I LOVE IT! Went out for a drive with the Mrs in the peak district and had a blast. Its a strange mixture of being a serious off-roader whilst being utterly hilarious at the same time. Had many looks, a few thumbs up and a man who tripped over looking as he walked past. I'm enjoying the head turning capability of it. As a man, I've always believed we shouldn't name cars...... So meet Chalky.



I will like to start this thread as I'm hoping to do an in-depth review, Keep a log of bit and bobs I'll be doing to it and any adventures I will be going on.

Thanks all,
OctaneJimny.

Congratulations, looks great with that backdrop.

Congrats on the car!

Best colour too

Great photo, nice jimny. You need to show it off at the Bigjimny meet in October

Thank you all for the kind words!

I would love to come to the big Jimny meet in October but unfortunately I won't be able to attend due to prior arrangements. I would love a northern meet at some point, the peak district would make an excellent place.

Since I've had the SZ5 home I have managed to fit some rear mudflaps I have adapted from some old Impreza WRX ones I've had for a while. Nice and wide unlike the Suzuki ones available. I will be fitting the fronts on tomorrow. As they are not standard I'll have to do a bit of jiggery pokery but I'm all about homebrew modifications. I've also fitted some LED daytime running lights, I have documented how to do it which I'll post at some point also. Loving the Jimny experience so far.

Check out the wiki, instructions on how to swap the DRL bulbs for LEDs already in there
