BUILDING MY NEW SUZUKI JIMNY : Unboxing & EPIC MODS!

[@TobyRay45]

I've just ordered my 2022 Jimny Safari Special Edition and I am genuinely looking forward to it. But here's the thing, if there really are people out there that have their phone infront of them while driving watching Netflix or anything else on their phone while driving. Please burn your license.

[@LifeofSmokey]

Haha agree! Just kidding about that buddy! A safari special edition? Never heard of that , what country you in?

[@TobyRay45]

@@LifeofSmokey Im in New Zealand. The model names are Sierra and JX down here. The JX is the one over here without the LED headlights, Touch Screen Stereo Headunit and the full climate control and the Sierra is the one with all the mod cons. The JX Safari is a Special Edition of the JX that comes with around $7000NZD worth of extras for the same price as the Sierra at Stock price with no extras. Its worth it. I dont need all the fancy stuff. As long as i have headlights that work and bluetooth, im happy.

[@jamessitati7396]

you are right on that

[@ahmadsaududdin6107]

As a guy from the Philippines, we have tons of these in the road and I was confused why it has no backseat. I found out later that the JImny didn't meet the latest emission standards so it was going to be banned in some countries in Europe until Suzuki found a loophole in the law, and that is sell these cars as "for commercial purpose" which have different emission standards, and hence no backseat.

[@LifeofSmokey]

That is 100% correct my friend 😎👌

Love this car but at the moment they sell them for over 40K new here in Germany. The price has simply doubled in the last 2 years. It's incredible.

Asking and actually selling for those prices are 2 different things

[@axxo798]

You can buy a matrass from Suzuki that fits the car perfectly if you really want to camp in it, I believe there are some 3th party options that are actually better and cheaper. Most of Jimnystyle's inventory is what's popular in Japan too. The lime green boxes that you got, are sold in Autobacs over here (Japanese equivalent of Auto5). Yes most of it is reboxed stuff, but its easy and you don't have to deal with shipping and import taxes.

[@LifeofSmokey]

Oh damn didn’t know that! Thx for the info Johan. It’s a new world for me so still learning a lot 😁👌

[@AbdurahmanAlomrani]

Bleep before accident 😂 So helpful

[@CasperLabuschagne]

Before anything else, install a set of seat covers since this is not your average commuter where the seats are not going to display the evidence of off-road adventures. Since the Jimny can go where most other cars cannot, it is almost a guarantee that sooner, rather than later, the Jimny is going to where other vehicles won't go. This means that the most import accessories are those that will save you the most money in the near future. Number one upgrade is a set of radial cup protectors since those are the lowest points on the Jimny and when bent out of shape are very difficult to correct. The second upgrade is to attach proper recovery points front and back since chances are sooner rather than later, every Jimny will have to be pulled out of some place no Jimny should have gone. These upgrades are very inexpensive considering the cost of not installing them in the first place. From here follows protecting the front and back differentials and underbody protection for the transfer case. No person that performed these upgrades in the first place, will resist the temptation of upgrading the shocks, springs, panhard bars and cross members that will lift the body by five centimeters. You will then discover that the wheels of the Jimny are spaced closed together than other vehicles and in order to follow in the tracks where every other vehicle goes, 32mm wheel spacers are to be added to all wheels which will improve the driving of the Jimny.

It's considered "Japanese vice" to leave those pieces of plastic missing and then sell them separately for extra profit. Those who stop making cars and enter the recycling business in Japan should look to earn a lot of money from the waste plastic they will get for free.

[@laloolhouvum1634]

Manual transmission in 2WD or in 4WD it ain't a special deal to the rest of the world except for the Americans. Though one of the largest populated country in the world, according to a study only 13-15% of the population knows how to drive a manual. Two door Jimny was supposed to launched in India when it first came into production, however it was postponed, so Mahindra took the chance to built an all new Mahindra Thar 4WD both in petrol and diesel engine, and launched it early last year and ever since they're being sold like a hot cake. Since Jeep wrangler don't give us the two door variant JL. Only JLU Rubicon is available in the market with a price tag of ₹89+ lakhs = 110+ thousand US $. Regular Rubicon extreme package too isn't available in Indian Market. Jimny being cheaper, more rugged and practical it will do better than the new Thar if it was launched in the late or early 2020s. Five door variant a due to launched next year, but I highly doubt they will sell well.
