About this 1998 Suzuki Jimny

VIN: JA22W162872

This is an imported (by me) Japanese market Suzuki Jimny with the turbo i3 K6A engine.
It was repainted from White to Tan in Japan by previous owner. The AC works. The shock struts appear to be aftermarket. It came with the BERG alloy rims. It has a 3-speed automatic transmission, which means that acceleration is fairly slow and top speed is around 60mph. The wipers, defroster, wiper spray, window crank, seat adjustment, and all the electronics work as intended. The steering wobble at high speed has been addressed with a 3 millimeter shim added to the kingpin bearings, effectively eliminating the wobble altogether. It has a manual steering box, no power steering. It is equipped with ABS. The OEM headlights were replaced with AUXBEAM 7-inch headlights.
