My Stock Vitara (March 2002)
Climbing Volcan Bar�(about 11 Km from the top--One of the toughest rocky roads in Panam�)
The road is like this all the way to the top, so we only reached 5.5 of 14 Km, It was too much climbing for my stock Vitara, and the two TLC's. I hope to someday beat that road all the way to the top.
Vitara @ 2.3 Kilometers above mean sea level!!!
Having some stock Vitara's caliber mud fun.
My actual mods!!!:
My SS800HF Safari Snorkel(installed), it was so damn difficult to find that snorkel, but finally I own it(thanks to the people of ARB USA)
Brand new Weber Solex Dgec 34/34 Progessive carb, actually its a kit for Samurai's G13 engine, but my G16 uses the same intake manifold. The last pic is for a modification I did to the inatake manifold:
My new Daytona US Wheels, I bought them for 41.88 each from SummitRacing.com:
Thorley Header, I choose them 'cause they have over 40 years developing high performance headers.
LockRight Lockers for my rear Diff. They are the only ones manufacturing lockers for Vitaras/Sidekicks/Trackers, but almost everybody says Detroit EZ-Lockers are the best ones.
1.5" Sky Manufacturing Coil Spacers, this spacers are about 1/2 inch bigger than the ones from Rocky-Road-Outfitters, in off-roading 1/2 inch can really improve your ride. These are constructed of UHMW polyethylene(which is self-lubricating, shatter resistant, long-wearing, abrasion and corrosion resistant).
Calmini Products 3" Body lift, just enough body lift for this vehicle.
My Brand new Maxxis Buckshot Mudders. Almost every review on the net says, they are just Perfect!, but of course they cant be compared with Super Swampers......I'll tell you when I personally test them!!!
My CB Radio, Midland 1001Z
Low profile antenna
Brand new Torquer Camshaft from roadlessgear.com, Tip-> Suzuki Samurai and Sidekick/Vitara 8valves head are the same:
Gas Tank 3" Lift:
Strut spacers and flipped mount(Sorry for the Dirt):
Rear Diff wishbone spacer/rotator, very usefull when flexing!
MSD high vibRatIoN Coil and SuperConductor 8.5mm coil wire:
My Direct Hits Ignition System(sorry for the dirt), let me tell you..This things really work!!!
I have in my favorite links section, almost every webpage found on the net with products and/or info for Suzuki Vitaras(including Sidekicks, Trackers or Sunrunners)!!! If you are a Suzuki lover/owner, please do yourself a favor and check the links out!!!
Soon, I'll post the new pics with the new Mod's on.
Thanks for Viewing!!!
