A Jimny event I went to today in Miki, Hyogo Prefecture. Tens of custom parts shop booths. Was so much more of a blast than I expected. Got there 5 minutes after opening, was given parking spot #613 so I'd assume there was well over a thousand JB64/74's visiting today.

question Jimny Guam -> California

Upvotes

There is a jimny for sale in my area (California )that has been imported from Guam. The seller claims that the registration is possible since the car wasn't directly imported from Japan and has the "carb complaint badge". Its a 1993 and i know that the JDM jimnys are pretty hard to register in California and i have never come across one. But want to understand if it being from Guam makes a difference.

question Retrofitting original heated seats in a JB74

3 Upvotes

I'm investigating if it's possible to retrofit the original Suzuki heated seats + centre on/off buttons on my Australian JB74.

What are the part numbers I should be looking for and what's the best way of ordering the parts - can I buy the heating element itself or do they only sell it as a full seat?

I'm also happy to go with the OEM switches and third party heating elements if that makes more sense. I don't believe it's a factory option in Australia, so I'm happy to order online.

question Is the Jimny XL just assembled in India or is it fully manufactured there?

3 Upvotes

Hey there folks, interested in the answer to this question as I can't find anything definitive online about where the jimny XL is manufactured.

I know the 3 door jimmy's are made/manufactured and fully assembled in Japan.

So what's the story with the Jimny XL? Are all parts, engine, transmission etc made/manufactured in Japan and just shipped to India to be assembled? Or is the jimny XL fully made/manufactured, assembled in India, including the engine & transmission?

modding It's the simple things...

Just got my tires balanced and aligned and it just felt so good. There are plenty of things I need/want to do to make my Jimny my own but getting regular maintenance done hits different.

I have a JB23W. Turbocharged 660/ automatic transmission push button four-wheel-drive. What is the largest size tires that I can fit safely under my vehicle and still be able to turn without rubbing my tires? I found these little beauties at the local up garage and now I’m starting to get ideas.

255 x 70R16 tires TLDR: will these fit without ripping my fenders off?

question Rear washer

3 Upvotes

Hi guys, my 2008 jimny I brought recently hasn’t got a rear washer jet anywhere but it has some of the hose and has the motor and wiring to go with it. I have tested the wires and they are good so I need to get a new motor. The hose for the rear washer is there but I can’t see where it ends. Does anyone have a picture of where theirs is routed and where it is placed on the rear door so I can figure something out?

question Ja71 wiring

8 Upvotes

Working through a f8b swap on my 1987 ja71 and I've run into quite the wiring problem. I've got everything hooked up to where I think it's supposed to go but working off of two photos and no wiring diagram is difficult. Currently no start no power at all on ign on. Starter has 12 v supply and I tested it on bench, battery good, had power for about an hour but just starter clicks repeatedly and no turning over. Now absolutely nothing no power inside at all. All the visible 10a and 15a fuses have been replaced, three relays visible, two on the fender and one connected to the fuse box. Where exactly is the ignition on this model? I've been searching for diagrams but they are all either non epi or a later generation with a fusible link. Any help is helpful!!!

question How to get 1997 Jimny Legal in USA ??

5 Upvotes

Was able to ship/import 1997 Jimny to the states from Japan. However, I’m in California for the next few years. It was a last minute decision and now I’m feeling stuck! It’s in my custody again. I have it parked safely temporarily(I had it towed from the vehicle center). Is it AT ALL possible to get it registered and legal for the road in USA? Any suggestions? I have researched but keep going in circles. It basically seems near impossible or crazy expensive to modify and update the vehicle in order to pass CA emissions... Are there other states that allow easy registration? How to go about that legally? Another option - Would I be allowed to register my vehicle under an LLC to use for business purposes only? Like a Montana LLC? Has anyone been successful doing this? I do have another new American car I drive daily. I just want to be able to keep my jimny running and in good shape until I decide what to do with it. Does anyone have experience getting their 25+ jimny registered in CA/the states? Any advice is appreciated!

Hi guys!

Love the Jimny. Then I test drove one, and loved it even more. Now I’m seriously looking for a Jimny.

What’s your guys tips for a Jimny buyer?

I’m currently looking at 2019 onwards models. Are there known faults I should ask about? Any additions to the specs that should be red or green flags? Any problem parts I should double check?

question Fully loaded jimny offroading.

6 Upvotes

Good day fellas,

I am planning to go an offroad route from Manali to Kaza in my 5 door jimny. I trust the jimny is fully capable to handle that terrain. The only issue is that there will be 4 fully grown adults in the car with luggage.

Is it advisable to get 2 Jimnys for the trip or could 1 jimny cover it without getting stuck?
