Asis Rocsta
« on: June 10, 2010, 19:56:52 »
Hello one and all, it's been a bloody long time since I've been on here but here goes.

I no longer need a car, due to buying a horse box for lugging the horses about and I've now got a company vehicle. So my 110 DC mazda 3.5slti off roader will be going up for sale when I've finnished repairing and tarting her up.

I've been looking into these little jeep replica's and to be honest they don't seem too bad, does anyone offroad one on here, if so I'm interested in mods if anyone can help?

Regards

Andi

just wiki'd it. looks a nice little motor. looks like theres stuff out there for them. just pretty rare. probably find yourself 'making things fit' from other trucks. and being one of those korean copys. probably find a fair bit after a little searching

my sister had one.......

spares are near impossible to get .... she waited a month or so just for a set of brake pads from a then dealer of them....

the mazda engine is ok as a disel goes but not exactly fuel efficiant from what i remember. the ride is errmm.....awful as well.

she ended up selling hers for little money after she had enough of it
cheers

if your going to do it make shure all your fillings are tight as it will shake them out otherwise and they pull to the left as you see the garage in the distance

My mate had one for a couple of years. He had it lifted by means of modified SJ shackles, 31" grizzly claws, drainpipe snorkel and a winch. He said the ride and handling was appalling however it improved after he polybush'd the suspension. The huge downside to it was that it went through several cylinder heads as it easily overheated; he said that the rad was sufficient enough. Hope that helps

I'd keep thr 110. you'll never get back what you put inot it and TBH the asis looks lke a nasty money-pit.  I serioulsy doubt you will be able to find parts to keep it going if anything happens to it, they probably don't have a design life measured in decades.
