Hey Guys,

Found a really clean 1997 4x4 X-90 with 120k on the clock and no problems and still has 6 months rego from a friend.
He wasn't to keen on selling it so what is it worth? im hoping to make him a good offer.

And are they the same chassi as a vitara? so same diffs, Gearbox/transfer ?




Thanks!!

they're widely considered the vitara's inbred cousin, and as such can sell quite cheap...

IMO they look pretty sweet once you get a bit of lift and some big rubber under them =)

Do it.

As for the main question, chassis and running gear are identicle to SWB vitara of the same year.

SAS on Yota diffs...

Is it easy to put a 2.5/2.7 vit v6 in a SWB Vitara? That'd be your answer I reckon.

Yep. Not sure if there is another way to do it, but there were some heavy bonnet mods required for just the H20 motor. IMO a J20 would be far easier with almost identicle output.

Still, a 2.7 X-90 might be ok 8)
