Welcome!

So that body style is called a Vitara in Austrailia?  I didn't know that.

i was down at the local SUPERCHEAP store, and pulled up next to a couple of other vitaras.

heres a pic. just goes to show how small Darwin is, and you hardly ever see more than one vitara at a time in any one place.

Welcome,
Nice looking rig.
who in australia do you get aftermarket parts from besides Old Man Emu/ARB?

I have run across a couple sites like

http://www.suzisport.com/
http://www.bigballsoffroad.com/index.htm
http://www.ironmansuspension.com/

any input on those companies?

hi all,

explosivo:
yes the front bar is an aluminium bar, but i got at it with an angle grinder, and cut off the two side bars that went around the headlights. there was also a bar accross the bottom, but it hit on everything, so i cut that off too.

Hutch:
i'm a student, studying Graphic Design, and i don't really have a steady job, depends on school workloads etc., so i find it hard to go to these companies for spares/after market parts, as they are, to me, very expensive.

but yes, i have heard of these companies, and i have heard that they are quite good.

here is a link for more business links, taken from outerlimits4x4 forum.
http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/PHP_Modules/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=5061

that should help, if you want to find out about business/companies here in Australia.


Most of the mods on my vitara, i've done myself, and i've since found out, not that i didn't know already, that cheap, is hardly ever better.

but it all works! thats all i want, i just want to drive what my mates can't! they got land cruisers, and hiluxes etc. bigger is better, but when small can beat big, we love it.

you know what i mean.

cheers, steve
