My new Jimny!!! :-p was created by guillaaaume
Hi everyone!

I'm Guillaume from Belgium and I've recently bought a new Jimny (petrol, 63 KW, 1 300 cc).

She's not modified for offroad yet but she will be soon. I read many forums to get some advices about what to modify.

I'm also intersted in sharing experiences with people living nearby (Jimny meetings, exhibitions, etc.) but there is no Belgian forum dedicated to the Jimny... :-(

Here are 2 pics (more to come later...)

Cheers!!!

Looks nice and shiny. When are you going to buy everything d&g tuning sell and make it hardcore?

Just be aware that I've read those wheels can cause vibration when fitted with big tyres and that if you want big tyres you might want to buy steel wheels for them.

Welcome!

Nice looking Jimny, someone on here has been asking me where you get bars for the front, are yours standard fit?

There are a few people from Belgium on this forum.

Hey! :-D

Thanks for the replies.

I've heard about that problem with the vibrations, but I didn't know it came from changing the wheels. I'll keep it in mind.

About the side bars, they come from Suzuki. I ordered them when I ordered the car. For the moment I haven't buy anything yet from specialized shops to modify it. Everything comes from Suzuki. I think it's possible to order it from their website (depending on which country you live in).

There's also a spoiler at the back. I'll take more pictures today.

About the modifications I'm not planning to modify much. I just want to be able to go offroad sometimes but also to keep driving it on regular roads. I was just thinking about changing the wheels and raising the height. Someone told me that I will have to remove the side bars as well, but I'm not convinced yet...

Hmmmmm, mine started out all shiny like that, that looks good! Mines sporting body length scratches and scuffs now, bonnet and headlamps scratched. Its too much fun getting muddy to worry about minor damage.

Sidesteps went via ebay too after getting in the way off road!

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!
