TWIC or escort at port

I bought a Jimny from Japan

For those of you that got a TWIC card, were you able to get it without a transport related job or business?

Those that got an escort how much did it cost and was it hard to find one?

Jimny Pricing

Hey all, currently I am in Japan and looking at buying a 1997 Suzuki Jimny, square body, Auto Transmission. I do plan on bringing it back to the states when I leave Japan. Is $5500 USD a reasonable price to pay, or is this more expensive than normal? Thanks for any information you may provide :)

Is there an aftermarket transfer case shifter knob where the lettering is more readable? I'm not the only one driving this car and when it's dark is pretty much impossible to see the writing on it. (Car is a 1999 model)

Transfer Case and Gear Box Breathers? WHERE ARE THEY?

Hey guys! Have setup Diff breathers a while ago with an ARB kit, can't find a really good video on the topic, or even just a walkthrough video of showing where to find them.

In any case is it even worthwhile extending the breathers on these for water crossings or is just doing the diffs enough? It's a Manual JB74 too for context.

Converting a JB74 (wide/normal body) to a Kei look

Hi! I'm interested in acquiring a JB74and very much like the unique look of a smaller Kei body. Is that possible with just removing the fender flares or would there be ugly holes left? I know it's a totally different front and rear bumper.

Understanding slipping in 2H

I was driving up a mud road, but due to heavy rain I didn’t realise how slippery the mud was. Very soon I noticed my car was not going anywhere, and the light on the dashboard of the car on a curved road kept flashing. So I switch to 4H, and we calmly and effortlessly drove out of the mud. Then I switched back to 2H, and drove away.

I was just wondering, is there anything else I could have done in 2H to get out of that? Car didn’t seem to be going anywhere. But 4H was effortless, and so stable and we got out immediately.

Rear door do not lock from remote.

Jb23 2012, manual, M13A petrol engine.

So my rear door doesn’t lock on remote, they only gets open as other doors. Havent yet tried to fix it on my own(probably by lubricating lock). They do close manually(with a key), its kinda big deal bcz my neighborhood have some issues with immigrants checking if your car is safe by pulling all handles.

Any ideas how to fix it if lubrication will not?

Handbrake, abs and esp indicator not switching off

Hi all, since yesterday the 3 indicators for handbrake, abs and esp on the dashboard do not switch off (the oil indicator in blue normally switches off after a few minutes of driving). I don't think is anything serious and I kept driving for a few short ride, but I'd like to check if someone has had a similar issue and was able to solve? Otherwise I guess the only option is to go to a Suzuki service center. Thanks all!

Back window shattered

Hi gang, family member’s 2022 Jimmy back window was shattered this morning as she closed the passenger door. She closed it with normal force too so I’m unsure how that would even happen?

Has anyone had this before or know what the best way to go about fixing it would be? Window repair company reckons $1100 and 14 day shipping time for getting a new window here. However I’m sure it should be replaced under warranty as there was no impact in to the window and it’s only 2 years old.

JB74Force 2024 Anniversary Trail (Philippines)

Here's the final cut of the trail ride I participated with the JB74Force. I used mostly footage from the dashcam in my Jimny as well as Photos from the other participants and a little iPhone & Insta360 I had with me. Hope you enjoy it.

Maximizing on soundproofing the Suzuki Jimny

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to soundproof my 4th gen Jimny and planning to use a multi-layer approach with butyl rubber, foam, and mass-loaded vinyl to reduce vibrations, absorb noise, and block low-frequency sounds. Weight isn’t an issue, so I’m going all-in to make the cabin quieter.

Has anyone here done a similar project? What worked best for you? Any tips, materials, or problem areas I should focus on? I’d love to hear about your experiences!

Thanks in advance! 😊

newbie looking for mods/accessories & general advice!

Just ordered a Jimny GXL. I’m planning on taking her camping, driving up the mountains for hikes, and down the coast for beaches.

Any recommendations on any mods and/or accessories?

I’ve never gone off-roading in my life but it’s not something I’m against learning! Just probably not in the next 3 months.

If you have any recommendations for any of the activities above or just tips in general, I would be grateful to to hear it!

Thanks :)
