Killer video man. Exactly what I was looking for. No extra bs or vague comments.

Looking for my first wheeler/hunting rig. Decided on a Samurai. Been watching videos for a couple hours and came across yours. Well done sir, well done. All of the needed information and no fluff. My only critique would be the lack of your Sammy in action. In any case great job on the video and very informative!

I daily drive mine, it's got the 1.6L 16V swap now and that to me is one of the biggest upgrades, it's still light but has better horse power. Mine will go just about anywhere on 35's.

Yeah the stock 1.3 is on the struggle bus. A motor swap is on the list for sure

I don’t have the Samurai, but I have the Gen4 Jimny. In the past I’ve had 2 Gen3. The Gen4 I have now will be the last car I have. I love it to bits! - With the double diff-lockers I’ve added to it it’s a beast off-road!

Hello, a warm greeting fro the province of Pontassieve in Florence, Italy. I am the respected owner of a Suzuki Jimmy 4x4 with a m13a 1.3 LT petrol engine, petrol, completely original, year 2001. In fact, it is completely original, which I often drive on country and forest roads, and with the appropriate mud tires it will do well too. The Suzuki Jimmy 4x4, although completely original, I see it in its natural habitat when I approach country agricultural and forest roads that are used by logging companies to transport wood in logging trucks.

I enjoyed my samurai when it was bone stock. It surprised me with the stuff that it was able to do. Now with all the modifications I've done to it is much more capable and way too easy for some obstacles. 16V swap with power steering makes it almost modern..
