Can anyone tell me pls? I'm picking up my first vitara tommorow. I have found lots of info on them, just no prices... Is getting one from overseas cheaper? It's my first 4bee, so should I just go some raised springs and como wagon shocks instead? Thanks in advance |

Hold waaaaayyyy back from spending money on major mechanical mods yet, buy a compressor, strap, shackles, UHF, first aid kit, fire extinguisher, and get out and start enjoying your car on trips. If this is your first 4WD, you need to be on trips with experienced suzuki owners, not out by yourself. If you're totally committed to spending money, buy a rear locker a 2" BL and to allow some bigger tyres, which will then require transfer gearing. All of these things will help you get more out of your car than a calmini kit (or a 1/2 baked commodore shock mess). Leave your suspension alone for now. Spending money on suspension offers the smallest capability return for investment, and on top of that, the Calmini kit is a bit of a minefield. By the time you throw away all the rubbish, you're not left with much for your money of effort in fitting it all and working out what's rubbish. Just my 2C. I've done a fair bit of work on the Calmini kit. Once it's dialled in it's very impressive at speed, but it really does need lots of work to get right. In technical, difficult terrain I don't think it offers any specific advantage over any other suspension combination. Commodre shocks are interesting, but they also require an amount of troubleshooting and I don't see the capability increase id you fit a rear locker. Steve. |
