new member and need general info
« on: May 29, 2007, 03:14:33 AM »
 8) Hi team
Ive just joined the forum, although not new to 4wding as I run my own 4wd tour company here in NZ, but have just purchased my first vitara, having spent over 20 years with other 4wd vehicles.

I havent taken delivery of the Vitara as yet so maybe you lot can answer a few questions for me.
It's a 1991 "sold NZ new" 5 door LWB model, so here are some questions.

Havent had a chance to look at the chassie number so can someone tell me what model ive got?
I know dumb question on the face of it, but im sourcing parts and it will be two weeks before I see the vehicle, so this is the quick way to get the info.

Secondly what is the standard wheel size and offset for this wagon ?

Have no idea what model you have. They varied. Ask the person your purchasing it from. The wheels should be five on five (same as fords)

Wheels are most probably 5.5"x15" with 105mmm backspacing. Models vary between countries, 1991 NZ may well have a 1.6 8V carburettor engine. US 1.6 models were all EFI.
