[CLAVEL3699]

Mga Sir;

Please send me some feedback regarding Pajero Jr., I like the style of the car.

Im planning 2 buy one.

Thanks.

[Maki]

small engine for a relatively "large/heavy" mini suv, 1100cc lang ata yun eh.. was wanting to get one before pero na turn off ako nung binuksan ko yung hood, and its a converted RHD to LHD =)

but i never really gotten the chance to drive it or ride in it...btw petrol din yun nde diesel... =)

[roydok]

Alam ko medyo hard to find ang parts niya dito sa Phil. market.

[pajerokid]

I'd stay away from one..... no parts, converted, etc. Get a real Pajero!

[kiper]

Jimny na lang...!!!!

ganda, nakapagdrive na ko nun. masmabilis pa humatak sa escape ko..hehehe..

[CLAVEL3699]

Yung Parts madali naman kasi same lang sa Phils. Pajero. Madali nang surplus at replacement.

Sino na ang nakadrive and baka naman meron nang experience dito, please reply naman.

Thanks.

Spec for spec, I don't think the real Pajero shares parts with its smaller brother.

What's the Pajero Jr. ba? Is this the 3-door variant of the 1st generation Pajero?

Kasi my sis-in-law just bought a Montero 3-door from Subic, and it looked exactly like a 3-door variant of the original 1st generation Pajero (boxy). Ewan kung totoong Montero yun, or Pajero lang with Montero badges and tire cover. It was converted rin. Ang ganda ng steering, sobrang lambot. I didn't like the engine response though...

[Ungas]

The Pajero Jr. is the smaller variant of Mitsubishi set to compete with the Suzuki's. First model out was the Pajero Mini in 1994 to be replaced by Pajero Jr. in 1998 then continued by Pajero IO later on.

Pajeros and Monteros is basically the same vehicle, except for minor quirks here and there. I remember OTEP & Pajerokid discussed months earlier that the word Pajero does not sound good when translated into Spanish or was it Mexican language.

[CLAVEL3699]

The specs its the same. One of my friend who is working in mitsubishi said that same specs are the same inpajero and galant.

[Ungas]

Maybe your friend was refering to the gas engine of the Pajero and Galant model, but Pajero Jr. came out with 1100cc engine. As for other parts, bearings, hubs and brakes will differ from each other models.

[CLAVEL3699]

ur right. bearing, hubs can be replaced by the galant, brakes are already available here in banaue. some specs can be differ.

Parts of the Pajero Jr. are also available in Cebu, One of friend told me that there are already many units are sold out in cebu and parts also.

[Ungas]

Those parts have yet to reach Manila, natatawa ako sa ibang auto supplies di nila alam Pajero mini.

[CLAVEL3699]

Tama ka dun Mini and Jr. are basiclly the same but Jr. is bigger than Mini.

I just want 2 know kaya ba nung 1100cc makina yung road natin dito. Wala pa kesa akong alam na 1100c nakotse dito. Do u know one.

[Ungas]

SuperCarry have 1000cc engines, atsaka yung minica. :D

[CLAVEL3699]

Do u know Supercarry is selling hot cakes in Cebu ang dami dun. Grabe ang lalaki nang body pero supercarry lang yung makina. Kaya pala madami parts dun

[OTEP]

I have never seen a left hand drive Pajero Jr. Was there ever a factory LHD Pajero Jr.? Because if not, then there are not parts for it designed for LHD applications. It is a feast for cutters and welders.

For most parts like consumables (filters and bearings and stuff) you stand a good chance of finding parts that will fit the Pajero Jr. since they do share some components with other vehicles in the Mitsubishi family. But break the grille, doorhandle or taillamp and you're on your own. I learned that lesson the hard way when I crashed our Mid-East Spec LC II. No one would even sell me a grille. They would rather have you buy the whole vehicle (a non-running parts car).

Pound for pound, I would take the Jimny over a Jr. on any given day. The Jimny is orig. LHD and has a tried and tested suspension design (same as in the LC80 and Safari).

eh anong tawag dun sa 3dr na 2.5 engine? kabilang ba din yung sa jr at mini?

[pajerokid]

tawag sa Japan dun Pajero Short.... as in Short WheelBase (SWB).

[OTEP]

Yung mga fullsize Pajero na 3-doors, SWB ang tawag dun. Tama si PK. :D GEN I SWB, GEN II SWB, GEN II.5 SWB, GEN III (latest).
