hi everyone new to the jimny world,can anyone tell me if the engines on these little things sound slightly tappy, and is that pretty normal. it sounds daft but it sounds sweet , but at the same time a bit tappy,if any one undrstands that:ohmy: . you can also slightly here it inside if ur at about2000- 2500rpm, when travelling. read a few thing before about them and people do say they were a bit noisy. its a 1.3 petrol, w reg 2000. many thanks clyde.;)

get a blowing exhaust and you can't hear anything - especially with no carpets - not even the stereo :side:

For the lift i installed the procomp kit which is shocks and springs with longer brake flexi hoses. thats all thats "needed" but correction bushes etc are advised.
