hi there, jimny newbie

evening all,

new to the forum so though i would introduce myself.

my name is roy, and im looking at getting a jimny for most of my daily driving and my weekend fly fishing trips.

this car will be a project aswell.

i currently own my drift project car of nearly 5 years wich i drive daily a nissan 200sx s13

but im looking to get into some off roading aswell.

got my eye on a jimny in newcastle for £1600 on a 02 reg as a cheap starting point.

any advice is welcome and dont mind doing some fixings.

my current project..







now im going to start a decent jimny project.

cheers all.

that s13 is lovely apart from the bonnet and spoiler sorry not to my taste what power you looking on it?

i'm planning a s14 in august once i've got my jimny a bit further on through its modicitations

but a warm welcome to the forum. you wont be disapointed with the jimny great little cars

You won't be disappointed with an s14.

I dropped a Nissan skyline engine in that 2 years ago and I'm seriously happy with it, got a whopper of a turbo to go on it good for 600bhp+ (gt3582) but won't be doing that till I get the jimny.

Can't drive it daily with a huge turbo on it haha.

Join sxoc.com if you want an s14.

Yeah iv always loved the look of a jimny so hopefully next week I should have one.

i look forward to seeing that, you could daily it just dont hit boost :whistle:

i probably will around the time i'm ready to commit to the purchase of one, untill then its just a bad temptation to put the jimny on hold, but i want to get the jimny well on its way before a second project is undertaken.

A very warm welcome to our fine forum Ellison it’s good to have you join us ....
Time to take things easyyyyyyyyyyyyyy ..... :whistle:

Welcome!
You'll be happy in the Jimny, RWD, endless power, great handling.... oh hang on... 1 out of 3 ain't bad?

Jimnys are a lot of fun, just a different sort of fun to your Nissan go get yourself one and get muddy!
