I know that car. It belongs to a guy named Simon Touron, a good chap too, took the X90 through the mud run at the National 4x4 show with the roof off  ;D. Spent most of the weekend alternating between cleaning it and burying it in mud! Those pics must have been taken earlier in the year, he has some nice custom made bumpers on it now.

I think of the X-90 is to Suzuki what the Del Sol was to Honda...

I've got my eye out for one... I'd hate to get creamed by a semi in one of those though. What are the specs of an X90?

they're the same as sidekicks in everyway except for a different body. you could swap a sidekick body onto one. they also have the 16v motors.

Thats what I used to think,  They are very very close cousins, but not exactly the same.  I beileve that their is some different stuff under the hood, but the basics are the same.  Local Salvage yard didn't show interchange between the X and my kick, + I have spoken to others who have found differences (Sorry i don;t have more details )I'm still working on Finding an X-90.  I missed a screaming deal last month on a 96 X-90 with 120k auto 4wd cruz ac power windows for $1500...

i've only seen one, the owner of an offroad shop has a SAS one, its sooo sweet, ive never seen one with an ifs lift though, which this one appears to have..
i know its a suzuki board, but does anyone ever lift rav4s? i think they have irs and ifs, so it could be a lot of extra work

I've got a green X-90.  It was my wifes before we got married and now I use it to commute to work.  It gets killer mileage.  I would love to SAS it and wheel the crap out of it someday.  I have taken it in the sand, it was worth it just to see people stare and wonder what the hell a roller skate with a flag on it was doing at Sand Lake.  I just love to watch people stare and ask me if it is electric, and what it is.  Damn thing is fast though with the 16 valve.  I think it gives some people a complex when the pregnant roller skate blows there doors off at the stop light.

Right, an X-90 is the same as a Sidekick mechanically.  That is, anything Calmini sells for a Sidekick will work on an X-90.  Suzuki put both vehicles in one Shop Manual.  However, there are differences primarily in the electrical schematic where the shop manual shows different configurations for the locations of grounding points, the wiring for the Daytime Running Lamps, and things like that.

Other than that, the X-90 was fitted with smaller tires at the factory so the wheel wells and fenders or correspondingly smaller.  Lifting and bigger tires will require a little more sheet metal trimming on the X-90.

Of course, since the bodies are different, aftermarket Sidekick bumpers may not work on an X-90.  I haven't tried it.

I'd love to have one.
The funny thing about it is my dad who , by the way didn't really like my Tracker, mentioned just the other day he saw a X-90 and actually liked it :o
And he's an all MOPAR guy.
Go figure, the power of Suzuki ;D
