Hey There, Up for sale is a Sami/VW Turbodiesel project I started for my wife but unfortunately the “T” word has made it clear, I’m not the guy who’s going to finish it. Needless to say, she’s disgusted. We were at a Bronco show in TN when I hear her and another good friend of ours talking and I keep hearing “Samurai”, not Bronco. They do a deal that has me driving the shop truck from PA to AL and back to pick this thing up. Well, I gotta say it was a very nice RUST FREE truck with a ton of good store bought mods, ran and drove nicely, needed paint and seats and that was about it. We loaded it and went home. $1500 in fuel later it was in our driveway and she was happy. Well, for a while. We put 33’s on it and she started complaining about power or the lack thereof. Since she is also a VWaholic, I had stuff laying around from some of her cars, including a 1.9 AAZ mechanical injection Turbodiesel we’d kept. It had a complete top end done – rebuilt head, new injection pump, injectors, the works, so we decided to install it using the Acme conversion kit. It went together well but I refused to use the recommended crossflow Audi radiator. I had no desire to hack the inner fenders or have the rad sticking up nearing touching the hood. I opted for a Be Cool custom aluminum one, made the mounts, found most of the new hoses and fittings, and got it that far. I am so busy with my company, I don’t have time to work on our daily drivers let alone the Sami. It’s sat since last fall and needs a new home. Here’s what it has in it; 1991 RUST FREE BODY, FACTORY A/C, the nicer late model dash, with clean title 1996 VW 1.9 AAZ Turbo Diesel w/ new head, pump, and injectors Acme Adapters 1.9 TD conversion kit New stage 3 clutch, pressure plate, and disk PLUS another spare clutch/pressure plate kit Remote oil filter kit and lines Fully Rhino lined inside almost 3/8” thick.

SPOA 5 inch lift w/ YJ spring kit Rocky Roads complete OTT stage II steering system Trail Tough Mighty Kong frame tied transfer case skid plate Trail Tough rocker skids Billet drive shaft extensions Petro Works long range 15 gal fuel tank and skid plate Extended length shock mounts New when we got it Rally Top Hard top New Bikini top New seats ARB Front bumper and bull bar Schrock Works rear bumper and tire carrier w/ led lights. (Keeping the jack for my Bronco). SJ 410 grill kit ABS Inner door panel kit w/ quick release door straps 33x12.50x15 BFG Mud Terrains w/80% tread New brakes, wheel bearings, and alignment Here’s what it needs; Finish mounting radiator and run all coolant/oil hoses, run electrical, new pipe from turbo to the new exhaust, cooling fan, serpentine belt, repaint the passenger door and front, drive it and have fun.

If you lowball me, I’ll hang up. Listed locally and on EBAY. To you evil doers- If you spam or attempt to Phish me, I’ll hunt you to the ends of the earth... To the rest of you decent human beings, Thanks for checking it out. FIVE SEVEN ZERO 864 NINE NINE ZERO THREE if you have questions. |

Suzuki considering Cappuccino revival?
Tue, 13 Aug 2013It's not a secret that a few of us here at Autoblog have a crush on Japanese Kei cars. The diminutive sizes and cheeky looks of most of the segment are certainly endearing factors, but it was the sporting Kei cars of the 1990s that made for the most delicious forbidden fruit.
Suzuki's entry in that time and market space was the Cappuccino, a rear-wheel-drive coupe with a removable roof and roll bar, powered by a 657cc three-cylinder motor. The car hung around the Japanese market until 1997 (and was booted up in Gran Turismo form for years after that). Now, rumor has it that the little coupe could be getting a reboot around 2016.
The reports are still a bit short on detail; some indicate that a new Cappuccino could be built up on an existing Kei platform from Suzuki. If the new car were to keep the RWD layout of the original, however, that would mean building up the model on the live-rear-axle bones of the Suzuki Jimny or Carry.
Toyota, Daihatsu and Suzuki team up to unbox some fun-size electric kei vans
Thu, May 18 2023The G7 Summit is happening in Hiroshima, Japan, right now and some automakers have taken the opportunity to announce new projects. Toyota, their wholly owned subsidiary Daihatsu, and Suzuki (of which Toyota owns about 5%) made news with a trio of electric micro-vans built to kei car specifications. The battery-electric vans are part of an industry-wide push toward carbon neutrality. Kei-class vehicles, in addition to limited displacement gasoline engines, have strict dimensional restrictions that allow them to navigate the often narrow streets in dense urban areas. They're also privilege to certain tax breaks and parking benefits. [gallery ids="2474953,2474954"] The engine size rules obviously don't apply to the electric vans, but they will still conform to the size boundaries. Kei vans are often used to solve the "last mile" problem in logistics since they're able to whiz around crowded streets inaccessible by larger commercial vehicles. Daihatsu, which specializes in kei cars, will build the vans and name their variant the HiJet Cargo. The HiJet name has been a consistent one in the company's lineup since 1960, but these new versions will be front-wheel-drive in contrast to the rear-wheel-drive gasoline variants. Toyota's version will be called the Pixis Van, while Suzuki will be named the Every, a nameplate that's been around since 1982. Aside from the badges the vans appear identical. Range is said to be approximately 200km (124 miles) on a single charge. The exhibition was held in conjunction with the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, which former Toyota CEO Akio Toyoda heads. Toyoda stepped down from the top position at the company his grandfather founded in April, but still takes a overseer role as Chairman. Toyoda was criticized for being slow to adopt EVs, and new CEO Koji Sato has emphasized the role of battery-electrics moving forward while still taking a multi-front approach to carbon neutrality with hydrogen and hybrids. These vans were likely in development before Toyoda's retirement, though.
Suzuki Jimny gets confused by American guardrails
Wed, Dec 19 2018The reborn Suzuki Jimny 4x4 has faced some crosswinds in the time it's been on the market: It earned only three stars in its Euro NCAP test due to a badly-inflating driver airbag and troubles with pedestrian protection. The automatic emergency braking function also had some issues in NCAP testing, but now the Jimny's AEB system is facing an another problem — it appears to be confused by guardrails. Two German-market Jimnys had been shipped to Los Angeles for the World Car of the Year testing, Australian journalists found that on some corners of the California test route, the AEB was seemingly triggered by a guardrail in a curve in the road. The problem was found with both Jimnys, and Suzuki's Jimny chief engineer was present to look into the matter; later, Suzuki engineers were able to replicate the glitch with these particular vehicles on the same road. While U.S. sales of the Jimny are extremely unlikely, test data acquired on American roads still seems to be highly valuable for Suzuki, as tests in Japan could not replicate the problem. It appears the road condition, tilt angle, curve aspects and vehicle speed all conspired to puzzle the AEB system, which is now being evaluated for a software or calibration change. The jerky correction by the electronic stability program, audible on the CarAdvice video, happened at 45-55 mph, which is not overly fast for even the narrow and tall Jimny — it is possible that the AEB mistook the guardrail for another car. Suzuki stated: "There is a possibility that the (stability control) is instantaneously switched on (by) reacting to the vehicle sway when departing the S-shaped curve — and then consecutively switches on because the vehicle is circling the curve at high speeds. [...] The intervention of the stability control may give a sense of discomfort to the driver but is not an event that would disturb the vehicle's direction of movement." The driver safety assists are a good addition to the Jimny, of course, given that the 1980s second-generation truck was the subject of a beef between Consumer Reports and Suzuki North America due to its reported tippiness in corners.
