what a start to my off road carrier!!

[Henry]

Problems with the sj???

Rott on arches, cills, and floor pans... carb (standard) Urm if you want to be petty, ive never had one with a clock that works :(

The 1300s go for ever, i wouldnt put that sheet in front of the grille, its a job to keep them cool anyways. Cut the hinges and then you have removable doors you can also fold the screen down, and have no doors (as long as you have the 2 wing mirrors) 100% legally!

hey there... good to know iv bought a car thats known.... has anyone got more info on the car? im wanting to put a load of money and time into getting it up there with the best! what iv seen theres not much more i can do to it... thinkin just a good tidy up!

[Henry]

There isnt much more you can do it it


Oh theres loads more

But like any project, make the good strong foundations to build up on!

[johnboy]

haha im loving that website!! i can promise you all it will not be going back to that state! yes the green door cards are still there but the skull shifter isnt.... it was just the bare gear lever which was hurtin my hand so i drilled out a golf ball looks cool with the green door cards looking like grass! haha just hope i get insurance documents through post so i can get it back before it costs me loads!!!! and get on with tidying it up and get this hard top on it... any suggestions wat colour to go for?? stay with black or something crazy.. it will be a home paint job aswell! cheers

Matt black, you can touch it up with a brush easily. What ever floats your boat really. I would look into a su tho.

its a 1.3 samurai with spoa and +2 springs the tyres are 33 12.5 15 kumho kl71s on fatboy alloys on wheel spacers

it could do with extended bumpstops extended shocks and extended brake lines

high steer is always a good option to get the steering bar up out of the way and you can use a straight steering bar

would be a good idea to fit a vit 1.6 to give it more power and a rock lobster t-box to lower the gearing to help turn the 33s

rear disc brake conversion is good too

a rear locker will make loads of diffrence offroad

theres always something else to modify

it could do with a better cage as the one thats in is only a suzuki factory fit

you could always coil it ?

[muddymesser]

keep it mattblack

that way you know you will always be able to get the right colour paint

or lime green

[johnboy]

oooooooooooooooooooo choices choices...at the moment half of what you said went over my head but iv caught the bug so im sure ill do lots of reading up and investigate the different routes to go down......
overall would you say its a good base car to start off with? i only paid £700 for it tax n tested which i think is pretty cheap??

[Henry]

Cheap for an sj, look after it, and dont abuse it too much, They dont make them anymore and are getting harder to find!

And for the colour, i quite like my rather girly blue!

[johnboy]

yeah that is a nice one... i wouldnt like to have a nice colour like that myself... im thinkin of going down the matt black root again just tidy the lil fella up i doubt im ever going to put the windscreen down so i can see an exteranl roll cage with spots on the roof and maybe one of them roof tents? all up in the air at the mo... i think itll be cool to make it into a baby tomb raider... and get some stickers made up sayin "womb raider" haha
