Suzuki Samarai 1986 Tin Top Clean Car on 2040-cars
Signal Mountain, Tennessee, United States
|
Purchased
from Extreme Zuks in Florida for $6700, and have installed high torque engine by
Extreme Zuks Off Road $2400. (1.3 Flat
top pistons, .040 over, new Weber Carb, new rebuilt transmission, new clutch,
new front end seals in the bearings and new bearings in the rear axles,-the car
is driven by my son and we live on a mountain and we wanted higher torque and
hp for driving up and down Signal Mountain TN).
Installed uphostered seats that are
covered in nice black cloth(seat covers have been on since we did the seats) recovered
and installed rear seat. New Carpet/ Paint is less than a year old. Installed
custom headliner with insulation to reduce heat in the summer, this really
looks good in a tin top. Has the customer shifter knobs on both shifters from Low Range Off-Road. Window cranks, door glass rubbers, and inside
and outside handles are new. Installed the windshield wiper blade support
plates as a preventative measure since these are a stress point, while doing
that we installed a new wiper motor behind the dash and insulated and re-taped
to factory specs all the AC hoses and connecting pipes inside the dash. New Radiator and Hoses. Heater works great(Heater Core and Dash
removed and cleaned, all dash lights work and tac works great from Extreme Zuks
Off road. Exhaust Header from Extreme Zuks.
Samurai has a great sound system by Pioneer that has 6 speakers and is
wired for and additional amp/subs for the back, the sound system sounds great. Installed factory AC on this car and it works
great, blows very cold air and we live where it gets near 100 in the summer and
it provides good AC. Rims have just been powder coated white to original color. New Hankook Optimo tires with less than 1000
miles on them. New brakes and rotors have less than 2000 miles on front and
back. He has recently gone to college
and has put most of his money into another daily driver Sammy and needs the
money. This will be a great vehicle for some lucky person, its eye appeal
is unmatched. This car has 2 defects
that have not been fixed, there is a small dash crack above the digital clock
installed in the dash, and there is a slight and I mean slight leak on the rear
transfer case back seal, I have only added about a half a pint in the last year
it was ran and I have the seal I have just not replaced it as it has not been
an issue. I have always used 50/50 Lucas Oil additive and differential lube in the transmission, transfer case, and front and
rear differentials/pumpkin, and have changed this every 6 months since we had
the car, change oil one a month, I do this on all 3 of my Samarai's I have had. This
will be a great vehicle for some lucky person, its eye appeal is unmatched, it
would make for a great car for a daily driver, it gets about 25-32 miles per
gallon and has passed all emissions testing in TN which is a tough place to
pass. New Catalytic converter and
exhaust system with muffler installed also. |

Suzuki back in MotoGP for 2015
Tue, 18 Jun 2013It had been planned for 2014 but it's going to be 2015 instead - that's when Suzuki returns to the manufacturer ranks of MotoGP after quitting the series at the end of 2011 because of The Great Recession. When Suzuki stopped after 37 continuous years of racing, it said it intended to return three years later and it has been in talks with MotoGP's rights holder, Dorna Sports, since last year. No doubt, though, that fan anticipation of the team's return outdoes any dismay at the delay. It will join Yamaha, Honda and Ducati in the premiere league.
Its bike has already been testing in Japan and was with the official MotoGP tribe in Barcelona, Spain on Monday when Suzuki announced its return. It's said the development bike is called the XRH-1, being ridden by official tester Randy de Puniet (who currently races in MotoGP on an Aprilia-based bike with TeamAspar). and after a day of testing de Puniet got the new Suzuki to within seven-tenths of a second of the top time posted by other MotoGP teams. Davide Brivio, who once ran the Fiat-Yamaha team and has been close with Valentino Rossi, will be the team manager.
Speaking of Rossi, The Doctor is back with Fiat-Yamaha after a bad run with Ducati but is only contracted to the end of 2014. Brivio is the man who got Rossi to join Fiat-Yamaha, then got him to Ducati. Until he took the head of Suzuki's works effort, Brivio was working with Rossi's VR46 management company, heading areas like merchandising. The rumormill has already begun its work, with folks wondering if Rossi will head to Suzuki in 2015 if his second stint at Yamaha doesn't prove fruitful before then. Scroll down below for the official press release from Suzuki.
Kei van campers are miracles of space utilization
Tue, Jun 22 2021In the tight streets of Japan, tiny cars make a lot of sense, particularly the government-restricted kei class of cars. They're especially small with similarly small engines, and besides being easier to maneuver and park, they're also cheaper to own and run. But surely camping in one would be a somewhat cramped, unpleasant experience, right? Think again. YouTuber Tokyo Lens, someone who creates a variety of interesting videos about places, people and things in Japan, went on a camping trip with what seems to be a pop-top Suzuki Every kei van. He details his experience and highlights all the neat features crammed into the little space. It really is remarkable how much there is. We were particularly taken by the nice looking cabinetry, the fact that a person can pretty much fully stretch out in the pop top and that there's actually a microwave and a tiny sink with a water-tank-supplied faucet. Check out the whole video for a look at how much you can do with a small space, as well as some nice shots of the Japanese countryside. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

It's a hard knock life for a N"urburgring rental car
Wed, 12 Dec 2012Rental cars get no respect. They're abused, misused and flogged mercilessly as athletes in Rental Car Olympics. And that's just at your everyday airport rental counter. The torture gets extreme for rental cars thrashed around Germany's infamous Nürburgring.
Rent4Ring expects its customers to drive its cars around the 'Ring with enthusiasm and, in some cases, less skill than the pros. Rent4Ring just recently retired its Suzuki Swift Sport from its fleet and shared the car's two-year-plus lifetime highlights.
The little hatchback made more than 2,800 laps of the 'Ring over three seasons amounting to more than 310,000 miles driven by 457 different drivers. "Some were fast, some were slow. Some were nice to the car, a few were frankly awful," says a Rent4Ring rep.
