It looks cool and I’m not opposed to electric in general, but price is still a big issue. If it didn’t start at $72,500 I’d be down. Like sure, you don’t have to buy gas, but the total bill (car payment + gas) for me with my truck is about $750 a month in the expensive part of the year. Assuming there is $0 tax and $0 licensing/registration fees and electricity was free, my payment would still be at least $1,000 a month for a $72K vehicle if I’m doing the math correctly.
Now… get that price down to about 55K to 60k and I’d be down.
250 is a 2.5 v6 DI. IS350 is a 3.5 with both port and DI. But surprise surprise what is old and out of fashion is popular again- cold start 7th injector on the 250. Apparently DI and cold starts don’t mix well. Shouldn’t be too much of a ‘hack’ to find a way to pulse the 7th more and more and let the DI ones reduce in duty cycle and hopefully clean up the ports some.
The white one i managed to get for 800,- and the parts justy (green) for 200,-
The white justy is in very good shape rust wise for its age!
However it has been lowered and one strut is leaking and bouncing around.
Good thing i’ve got the parts justy.
Took suspension out of the parts justy and did some cleanup, rust prevention, painting and lubing.
Also the antenna that was broken on the white justy.
Yesss! I love Suzuki Swifts! I most definitely will be looking forward to more updates. What engines do those have in them? Either of those have the 1.3 DOHC?
WTF it looks like your using those draws as Jack stands, I guess the car is light enough. Haha /s
You are correct, but don’t worry it’s 6 pieces of thick wood nice dutch quality drawers.
the middle one (in the back) has some bricks in it just in case…
That’s very nice to hear, i might make a topic for it then.
No these justys have the 1.3L 68HP sohc engines.
I assumed so. I like to keep my vehicles for 300k+ miles so for me every bit of top notch maintenance work done myself that I can do… I do
I personally hate waste and its why I do not buy new cars. Just used even if they take a bit of work. Id love a new one but I always come back to the waste proposition… why waste lol
I recently dropped in 2 liters of Valvoline oil 10W40 into my car.
But i found some white sludge in the engine.
So i guess that my engine isn’t really in a great state anymore lol.
So yeah i trow whatever reasonable oil i can find in the car.
I will get rid of it this year anyway.
head gasket leaking coolant into the oil system, which is not good. … If it is condensation, it is generally minimal moisture in the system and heat can help burn it off. Did you overheat her recently?
