Have just purchased my 1st 4x4. It's a 2003 Jimny same colour as yours. Will use all your great information to guide me to making an awesome adventure vehicle. Cheers from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Great video and adventure, really enjoyable watch, well done. I have a Y61 LWB ZD30. Always cool to see them off-road in Europe. Just subscribed, the 4.2L in a SWB is insane power to weight
Judging by the TH-cam analytics, you (and 1 other person) are literally the only subscribers I gained from this video so far 😄 Every little bit helps - I'm glad you enjoyed it 😉
Hey there! Nice of you to stop by. I'm planning to visit Greece in September this year. Quick question - is offroad driving legal everywhere in Greece (expect nature reserves I suppose)?
@@The4x4Lab if you plan to visit Greece i will be glad to see you and help you finding new Off Road paths👍.. To answer your question you can move in the roads in the mountains freely
Nice video , nice cars , nice mountains . I would suggest bulgarian speaking , english subtitles and nativ bulgarian music . Keep on making videos . Greetings from a greek jimny owner .
Hey, thanks! 😊 To my knowledge there is only one possible track in the eastern Balkan and that's part of Kom-Emine. The other offroad trails lead to nowhere and one has to go back. Are you planning a trip?
@The 4x4 Lab scouting for now, we are two enthusiasts often going around water reserviours and fishing rather than pure offroading, but things tend to change :)
Здрасти Жорка.Ще помогнеш доста на хората при избора на гуми ако при представянето на автомобила освен двигателя казваш набързо модификацийте. (Примерно заден блокаж.) Размер марка и модел гуми. Така човек като гледа клипа ще може да наблюдава тези гуми как се държат спрямо други или в дадена ситуация. Страхотен клип.
Да, предполагам, че ще е интересно за публиката да чуят и гумите, мерси за идеята! Иначе за реално сравнение на гуми бих искал да намеря еднакви джипове, но с различни гуми :)
I wonder how much difference, if any, a front locker would have helped in the Jimny. I noticed a few times that one of the front wheels wasn't turning in a number of situations.
@@The4x4Lab only a Bad Driver in jimny in this Video. But in so many other Videos jimny drivers Are shit. So many Videos online where a Nissan Patrol or Jeep grand cherokee is better. A jimny can be better when the driver is good.
Jimny! You run way to much air pressure to run the jimny on snow. air down alot more, and crawl thru there. im running 1-2 psi in my 35's on my jimny on snow. I'll bet you could crawl all those hills, if you just run the correct tire pressure, and no right foot. Wish i was no so far away, would be fun to ride with you.
1-2 psi?! 😱🙏 I was afraid to go lower than 1bar (14psi) but I guess the Jimny is so light that it won't pop the bead even with no tire pressure. Do you have experience in snow wheeling? Here in Varna there is snow for 5 days per year max 😅
@@The4x4Lab My jimny is my daily, and i run 15 psi in winter even on road. (dont drive much on road, and its snowy roads and ice, much better grip, and much more fuel lol) I run 35x12,5R15 on 10x15" wheels and they work very well on snow with 1-2psi. the car float on the snow, instead of sinking. you just need to experience the difference, its really something special for the first time. You should NOT full send it tho, with low psi unless you run beadlock wheels. Crawling is key. Im located in Norway, and we do some deep snowwheeling here. 50-100cm of snow, depending on weather, the car will only sink 15-20 cm in the snow and keep floating with 35's. Next time you find snow, try with 30 psi, then air down to 5 psi to be safe and you will see huge difference. its night and day! look in youtube for snowwheeling and im sure you will understand. :-)
@@The4x4Lab yes i do, the G13bb from 1999. note tho, im running a Sj T-Case conversion with 6,5:1 gears in it. It works very well, stock axels, but im doing mostly crawling, i rarly full send it, unless needed in some situations. Not a single axel or u-joint broken yet. More power = more problems. yes, its not a rocket, but then i would choose another setup/car. i love it . I am looking for diffs from a manual 2005+ jimny as they are 4.3 as mine is 3.9 diffs. may not change too much, but some here and some there are good.
Sure, I'm not worried about crawling on low gear, but about the highway speed 🙂 on average can you maintain 90km/h? But you are right, driving a Jimny requires a calm driver 😌
I was expecting somethinf with the new hilux. Still lovely to see your jimny again. How was your wheel bearings on your jimny with bigger tires? I had to change almost once in 2 months even with stock tires. 🥲
It has been some time since the last offroad video so I decided to mix thing up. Yes, I think the rear bearings on the Jimny a very weak. Had to change one of them after shooting this video 😅

Nice! Let me know if you have any questions that I should address in future videos
Great video and nice to see you still have the Jimny. 👍
Almost time for another snowy day of wheeling 😎
What a great video. Amazing landscape, top quality, great cars, awesome adventure...
Many thanks for the nice words! 😊
The Jimny is like leaf in comparison with Patrols. Both of them are excellent off-road vehicles. Great video. Congrats 👏
Thanks! 👍
Excellent work! A really nicely put together film; well shot and edited and your presentation is lovely 👌
Thank you. Unfortunately, it's too long for TH-cam and less than 20% are watching pass the middle
bravo...bravo ...Great video....Greetings from Greece
Thanks a ton! So cool to hear from someone in Greece! Hope you're having a great day!
Love the Suzuki 4x4 Denmark sticker ! :) Very nice video! Love it :) wish i could join a offroad tour with you in your country :)
Maybe one day! And you are very observant with the sticker :)
great to see yo still have the Jimny😊
I admint, it's difficult to say goodbye to it 🚙

Glad to hear it!
Great video!! It would be better without music. We love the sound of the beasts😜
Thanks! I might try that next time :)
Nice video 👍 good off road!!

Nice video! We want and a camping one with the Hilux :)
I was thinking about winter camping but... naah, don't need no pneumonia haha 😂 I'll wait for Spring. Do you camp in winter?
@@The4x4Lab yeap and all the good spots are free :)
Great footage
Thank you kindly

I'll try that sometimes, thank you!
Awesome trip! Would you mind sharing the route and the resting spots if you weren't camping?

Hey! Great video, subscribed. How do you find these trails?
I just open a gps map that shows dirt roads and draw my own trail
I wonder how much difference, if any, a front locker would have helped in the Jimny. I noticed a few times that one of the front wheels wasn't turning in a number of situations.
All the three vehicles had rear lockers but no front lockers. It makes the comparison on equal terms but I'm also curious to try a front one
Джорд, крайно време е да сложиш истински гуми 💪🏿
И съвсем да засрамим патролите? 🚙 Не, искам да си останем приятели 😄
I have just bought the 2012 model Jimny are they any good or is the older one better
They haven't changed much over the year 💪
Страхотно видео! Имате ли трак на разходката?
Мерси! По трака Ком-Емине се движим Между Котел и Твърдишки проход
Suzuki Jimny top
of course :)
Old footage, or kept the Jimny?
I'm not in a rush to sell the Jimny so I haven't posted it anywhere for sale.
It's just that one mention in the walkaround video 🙂
Bad Driver in jimny: a good Driver dont have too winch 😘😘
Pretty embarrassing in front of the Patrol drivers :( The Jimny should eat them for breakfast!

But you are right, driving a Jimny requires a calm driver 😌
The patrols are heavy, they need better and bigger tyres like 35 inch Maxxis Trepador.
I agree. From what I have seen, Patrols need really aggressive mud tires and lots of momentum to be efective.
Suzuki Jimny VS Nissan Patrol Y61 (a 2-door and a 4-door) - which 4x4 do you think performed better off road in the snow?🤔
you should buy a chain saw)
Why? Free outdoor gym 😆
Snow chains was needed
In this particular type of snow, chains would have really made a difference, yes.
The Y61 Patrol is the ultimate offroad vehicle. Nothing to compare even close..
Let's agree to disagree on that 😆 I'll stick to the Jimny
Bad tires, for winter, thats the problem
Perhaps, we all live on the Black Sea cost and rarely see any snow.
👏
😎🚙
Sssas Suzuki samurai solid axle swap lol
