1988 Suzuki Samurai Jx Sport Utility 2-door 1.3l on 2040-cars
Alexandria, Virginia, United States
My 1988 Suzuki Samurai 4WD “soft-top” is for sale….sadly. I am the third owner in its 25 year life and have put a lot of TLC/money into it in time I have owned it. Here is the list (I may well have forgotten some stuff): Since April 2013- rebuilt engine with more recent enhancements to include new front engine seals, heater control valve, vacuum hose, timing belt and spark plugs, cam seal, coolant, and front crank seal (no more leaking oil on my new driveway!). In addition, I have added ($2500 worth I guess)
a new Alpine stereo (CD/Bluetooth with mike); four new speakers (two of which
are ‘outdoor style); new muffler and tailpipe; the original Suzuki Samurai
white Bikini top (incl. striped green storage bag); an OEM black bikini top,
AND a full canvas top which covers entire vehicle (see pic). And..a new LH drivers mirror, new horn,
carpet and mats throughout and a new chrome tow ball with bike rack. Paint is 95% perfect as is the
glass – tires are 99% brand new as well.
IF you are looking for an unmolested all original NO RUST 1988
Samurai, then you have arrived- IF you want a highly modified (or even
slightly modified) Samurai, then perhaps you will want to look elsewhere. This is one of a handful of Samurai’s in the USA with NO rust- hence the higher price. Once rust makes a 'beachhead' on these vehicles, it is almost impossible to stop it from spreading... |

Next Suzuki SX4 spotted again
Wed, 05 Sep 2012Thanks to a sketch of the Suzuki S-Cross concept, we can already see the styling direction that the next-generation SX4 will take, and Suzuki is still hard at work on the production version of the car as evidenced by this latest batch of spy shots. These photos look almost identical to those captured back in July, but we see a little more detail at the rear of the car and get a better idea of the next SX4's proportions.
With the baggy camouflage lifted up at the rear of this prototype, we can see that the SX4 replacement has a very Mazda-chic look to it with downward-angled taillights that stretch into the liftgate. Aside from this, the big news is that we're finally getting a sense of the new SX4's size. Suzuki's press release attached to the Paris-bound S-Cross sketch said that the SX4 replacement would be growing to the compact segment rather than being a subcompact like the current car. Recent reports indicate that the next version of this car will be sized closer to the Grand Vitara, and in these pictures, you can definitely see how much the car has grown.
Still unknown is when we can expect to see the production version of the new SX4, or what will be inside it (available turbo power?), but hopefully Suzuki will not delay things like it did with the Kizashi and its numerous concepts.
Suzuki recalling 23k GSX-R750 and GSX-R1000 bikes to replace chain adjuster
Sat, 18 Oct 2014Suzuki is known for having a pair of very capable sportbikes in its GSX-R750 and GSXR-1000, but now the Japanese company is recalling 23,073 of them in the US to replace the chain adjuster. Specifically, the campaign affects 2011-2014 model year versions of the 750 and the 2009-2014 1000.
According to documents from The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the problem can occur if riders miss a gear while upshifting. It's possible that the following shift might put enough added strain on the drivetrain to move the rear axle. This can damage the left-side chain adjuster. If there's too much harm done to the part, then the chain could potentially slip off the bike, leaving the powerless bike more vulnerable to a crash.
To fix the problem, Suzuki dealers will "replace the left-side adjuster with an improved part" that will be heat-treated to be stronger. Scroll down to read the full recall report.
Suzuki Authentics Concept is genuine but drab
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Looks can certainly be deceiving. Have a glance at this new Suzuki Authentics concept, for example - we were told that this would, essentially, be a proper sedan version of the new SX4, but our folks on the ground in Shanghai tell us it's actually much larger. Like, bigger than the Kizashi. (Hey, remember the Kizashi?)
Regardless, Suzuki says that the Authentics concept previews a C-segment vehicle for the Chinese market. A good move, too, since that segment has the highest volume in the Chinese market. (That's why automakers like Ford, for example, have more than one offering in the class.) If we're honest, the Authentics concept looks a bit "meh" for our tastes - there isn't a whole lot of emotion going on here with the design. Consider it a competitor for that spiffy new Ford Escort that also took the stage here in Shanghai.
We don't have any more details about the Authentics concept at the moment, but considering the fact that Suzuki has officially exited the US market, at least we don't have to worry about this thing showing up on our shores anytime soon.
