Re:My 01 Jimny, another Norwegian

Now to see if it fits like a glove or a sock on a hens head...looking forward to it.

Yep, got to take me some time this week to clean the jimny underneath and start chopping out the old panel. Also going to place the order on all brake parts at work so I can start doing the king pin job

Hi Mads. Think we had forum contact earlier. We're almost neighbours, only 1.5 hours depending on the ferries. Still got 1600 adapter for your car. Other suzuki got plates now?

I'm thinking of doing a G16B conversion again next year like the old jimny, are there engine mounts also?

Tried to sell the Carry on pirates forum, hardly any response so gonna strip it for useable parts and scrap it. Bought another identical Carry from Japan this spring for parts, but it was in so good condition I decided to register it! brand new plate number but got the old style

No engine mounts included, but original ones can be modified i think. For the SJ you need only a spacer on one side and a hole drilled to the other one as far as i know, but i haven't done the jimny G13/G16 change myself. 600,- for the adapter plate including two bolts. still need some adaptaions.
I bought my SJ motor mounts from som us webshop. No idea if they will fit the jimny.

Pirate4x4 forum has been killed by facebook as you say. Facebook is so lousy in the search department that i see no point in contributing there..
If i hade time and space i should have bought it. Suzuki4x4 club page on facebook is good for selling stuff probably but like you i am not active on facebook. Your import looks good! I might take contact with you if i cross the fjord one day.

I found a website in australia that sells conversion kits with engine mounts also, but thats for next year for now. To many expences on cars right now!
Yes the only thing I miss on facebook is the Suzuki pages, but I believe forums will come back eventually
My girlfriend studies in Volda so well probably meet some day!
