Suzuki JIMNY [merged threads]

The TS must like tight spaces because a Jimny is something like a phone booth inside, just barely enough space to fit four people shoulder to shoulder.

I would have preferred to use a Honda Jazz (1st or 2nd gen) if I need to transport a bike. You can fit a whole bike or two inside a Jazz without need to remove the front wheel. Just roll the entire bike when the Jazz's rear seats have been folded down.

I drive a Nissan Patrol on weekdays, but on weekends, I can't wait to hop on the Jimny!

So far it's pretty stock. Just changed the HU to a Pioneer DEH2050MP. The former owner had put in a V12 amp, tweeters, and self-powered sub already. Outside, I removed the roofrack crossbar of the former owner (left the OEM roof rails in place), removed the bulky sidesteps also (from the former owner), and had the OEM accesory full tire cover repainted (the whole tire is covered unlike the rim-cover only of that comes standard).

Also running those big Bosch horns, OEM Cibie foglamps, Raybrig roof rail lamp over the driver's door. That's about it. Under the cargo floor lurks some emergency supplies like tow straps and jumper cables.

Nakaka-adik noh? Actually, I'm logging in more kms. with my Jimny than with my everest and strada. Nagagalit na nga si Kumander (it's her car hehe..)

One tip, Takumi. If you're gonna spend some more for your Jimny, try OME shocks and coils. I'm sure you're gonna love to drive it more.

Im thinking nga sir of buying those OME shocks and coil pati na rin yung steering damper. Any idea how much are those mods? thanks!
