i own a jeep wrangler 2012 and i am purchasing a 87 samurai on monday. I was blown away on the test drive through the arizona desert. the little samurai can go anywhere!
One thing my grandpa tought me about driving in mud offroad is keeping low revs, with high revs you lose traction and control. Especially when driving Suzuki, Suzuki is light and does miracles when driven right. :)
This is applicable for torquey diesel motors which have torque right from lower rpms. The Samurai, or the Gypsy as we call it in India is powered by a 1.3 petrol motor. To access the power you have to rev it as the torque is concentrated at the higher rpms!
Lol, love samurai and hope to get one in about 3 years, I would at least swap it with a v6 or strait 6 desil engine, maybe put some swamped or Baja class o n it, probably leafs rear and coils front, and if I get some money, then front and rear lockers
Suzuki in the late 80s: gets reputation ruined by motor trend and drives the Samurai out of the American market... Because of things like this. Suzuki 30 years later: "They hate us, cuz they ain't us."
I own a highly modified 88 Samurai and a slightly modified 98 TJ. Will the Sami out perform the Jeep? About 10% of the time. But theJeep sure can’t compete with the Sidekick 1.6 16 valve 25-28 mpg!
Both vehicles have there perks, which means one may be better in certain aspects. Jeeps are bigger, which means they can tow more and carry more gear. Susukis are light and small, which allows better maneuverability. Overall it shouldn't matter what you pick, but how you use it.
Samurai may just be one of the best designed off road vehicles of all time. They are reliable, inexpensive, easy to work on, has huge aftermarket support and extremely capable. It's small, light and fuel efficient. Also, the lack of power makes it very manageable.
I've said it before, in a Sammy you'll run out of power before you run out of traction, and the stubby little thing can get traction where a lot of other things just can't. That was pretty impressive, frankly.
An old zooki would still beat the hell outa modern 4x4s. Only Suzuki can build a light but robust 4x4 which just needs a normal petrol 4 banger from any Economy car. People call them TIN CANS, but no one knows how sturdy the body panels are.
jeep should mount his tires the right direction... and not ride the ruts. still might have got hung up but would have done a lot better. and saw the wheel when your slowing down near the top. those tires have awesome side lugs and really pulls when you drive them right
I've owned both and they both have their strong points. But I prefer the jeep cause they are more comfortable and ride better. It's mostly driver offroad anyway if the vehicles are comparable.
Samurai to super terenowe auto tylko czasami mocy brak ja miałem 1.0 i był zbyt słaby jak dostał większe opony . Ostatnio zamontowałem do niego silnik Vitary 1,6 v 8 i terasz jestem zadowolony w stu procentach pozdrawiam i miłej zabawy w terenie
I was all for the samurai hell I own one, but damn neither of those drivers knew what they where doing booth those rigs could have made it if they didn’t insist on flooring it
Well they both had uni-directional tires, yet the jeep's were mounted backwards! How do you expect to get traction like that? They would both have made it if the tires were mounted properly. (Probably easier than the suzuki)
What a fanboy, reversing the tyres won't help that much, because they are still cleared out. The main purpose of directional mud tyres is to help them clear the treads. If they are already cleared, then there's not much difference.
+Marco A. Orozco Velarde stock engine 1364 cm3. last night i was with one just like that in the mud. impressed by the small engine and huge power. only the tires are changed.

Low revs also equals low wheel speed which means the tires won't clean out in thick stuff.

@@rohanverma2880 mudding is about power... Not torque... Power power bamm... Bammm.. Torque is not much needed in mudding..
everyone laughs at me when they see my 1.3L engine, guess what happens in winter...
Nora Berisha some lucky guy gets to keep you warm ;)
Have in mind that the wrangler costs much more. Suzuki is a cheap 4x4 compact offroader, and it is one of the best in that category.
that's a jeep yj wich is around the same price as the wrangler
tod chez never would be the same cost
In Florida, the Samurai costs more
1.3 liters of FURY
EXACTLY people laugh when I tell them Im packin a 1.3 then I end up pulling em out when they get stuck 😂! Suzuki Samurai is a BEAST!
Jus traded my dodge for one of these :) love these things
Always celebrate with a DOUBLE WANK!! haha
Such a hero
Lol 😂
El Samurai es más pequeño pero es más ágil en el lodo y solamente cuenta con un motor 1.3 de 4 cilindros. el jeep tiene un motor de 6 en línea
This is why jeep owners hate us samurai owners
I really agree because in my country too
I had to wait 6-8 weeks for a 3rd brake light lens to come from Japan. Jeep parts are plentiful
peter janjanin it's because they break down all the time

Samurais are pretty happy with GSXR engines, though you need some crazy gear reduction.

Suzuki samirai eso si es una maquina
I'm s Jeep guy but THAT WAS IMPRESSIVE! 😊
Zach The Ripper that made my day
I’m a Jeep guy between a Cherokee, or a samurai right now. Wranglers are too damn expensive hahaha
They will out 4x4 Jeeps all day. They are lighter. Cant fight gravity!!!

Samurai's (previously sj410) were back breakers! You needed chiropractor appointment after taking them for a ride. But they were unstoppable indeed!!!
I like how the awesome almost stock samuriabeat the jeep with just the weight difference

Super buenisimo el suzuki
Samurai power !!!!
Samurai is strong very strong 💪💪💪💪💪👈👈
Siempre que damons sorprendido de lo que es capace est rustuquito............. Viva l'os samurai
Por algo el Wrangler es el auto de la barbie XD
mucho!
Samurai I LOVE YOU
I've said it before, in a Sammy you'll run out of power before you run out of traction, and the stubby little thing can get traction where a lot of other things just can't. That was pretty impressive, frankly.
Simplicity beats Gayness
Larga vida al samurai!
before i start the vid my moneys on the zuki
called it
I’d take my samurai over any Chrysler made junk, the older cjs I would take I’ve had a few and loved them. Chrysler can ruin any vehicle.
An old zooki would still beat the hell outa modern 4x4s. Only Suzuki can build a light but robust 4x4 which just needs a normal petrol 4 banger from any Economy car. People call them TIN CANS, but no one knows how sturdy the body panels are.
I’ve owned three Sammi’s and they are the best ever made.
How many other jeep fans were crushed that we couldn't beat that hill............
So this is why Samurai won 2:1 on sales vs the Wrangler
Suzuki Samurai's are 1.3 liters of pure FURY
Like daca esti român!
the best suzuki
japan is the best
yap
I like both
jeep should mount his tires the right direction... and not ride the ruts. still might have got hung up but would have done a lot better. and saw the wheel when your slowing down near the top. those tires have awesome side lugs and really pulls when you drive them right
This is what i like obout 4x4 cheap 3000 euro car and lots of funn and adventure. Bravo baietzi !
I've owned both and they both have their strong points. But I prefer the jeep cause they are more comfortable and ride better. It's mostly driver offroad anyway if the vehicles are comparable.
que rico el embreague y el sonido del escape del samurai
Holy fuck that samurai can hustle
Suzuki Samurai es si es una maquina
Whenever someone talks shit about samis saying "jeep is better" i just show em this video
is it straight piped?
Wish mine had that much power, his samurai goes way better than mine
comparatia perfecta dintre America si Japonia >))))))
suzuki pieknie weszlo super
looks like open diff's on the jeep on the front at least and an LSD or some type of locker on the Suzuki.

the driver made the difference
That was grand.
Brilliant love it ;-)
I Love Suzuki Samurai
excelent suzuki...
Just noticed the biggest are reversed on the YJ. Nice
Wrangler is selling the American Pride. Not necessarily it is as good as it looks. That's why American is poor today. They got cheated by their owns.
Oh Wrangler I'm so dissapointed
I was all for the samurai hell I own one, but damn neither of those drivers knew what they where doing booth those rigs could have made it if they didn’t insist on flooring it
the right amount of speed/force/stupidity and some things are possible
Suzuki is a great little fun box
Well done Andre
This is the video that the people at The Fast Lane don't want you to see!
I would like to see a wj wrangler try to haha, been there done that, proved that my stock samurai, shit even my stock nissan would whoop
Samurai best
For one thing the Chryslers boggers are backwards. For another it's a Chrysler. What did you expect? Sammy all day !
asta poate face un samurai, nu cred ca pot multe masini de ani ei.
American truck+American tyres vs Japanese truck+Malaysian tyres looks like America loses this battle
Open diff and still made up that climb?! Good driver Sir!
My buddy has a samurai they will go anywhere and the engine sounds like a pissed of swarm of hornet's .lol
I like how the ultra awesome sl
good cars
What is the size of the Suzuki's tire
If the Jeep owner would put on his tires the direction they were designed to be used in, he would have probably made it :P
Mmmmmm.........no
They need lockers
Did I see it wrong or does the Jeep have his front boggers on backwards? Lol
If it was hard getting parts for my SX4 I imagine that thing is even worse..... I just bought a Jeep
sungguh ekstrim ya...
or is it just lockers vs no lockers?
Looked like Sami was able to stay out of the rut
+Quadrunner No, the diff really was the diff.
Haha, yeah because it wasn't hanging up on the sammy.
MetalMaster4x4 or is it 2000 dollars versus 6500
MetalMaster4x4 or is it 2000 dollars versus 6500
Just FYI, that was not a stock samurai engine! Beefy engine, light weight body equals success.
Sounded stock to me with maybe open headers. Mine sounded like that when I ripped my exhaust off
the weight is all...
Romania
Bravo :)))
Samurai é samurai
I wanna try i eat that samuris lunch with my xj
i think that you will keep being hungry....
Well they both had uni-directional tires, yet the jeep's were mounted backwards! How do you expect to get traction like that? They would both have made it if the tires were mounted properly. (Probably easier than the suzuki)

light and maneuvers on a dime
I will take 1 suzuki over 10 jeeps any day
He should have revved the Jeep harder and longer.
what engine has that sami en what upgrades?
+Marco A. Orozco Velarde stock engine 1364 cm3. last night i was with one just like that in the mud. impressed by the small engine and huge power. only the tires are changed.
Kick ass !!!!
That jeep didnt have locking differentials or it would have made it up in the first try
neither did the SJ to be fair aha
+Lore Enforcer 420 Yep, but it is obviously a lot lighter and therefore does not require a locked dif to be really fair aha.
Red Phoenix na you'd be amazed how much better an sj is once you've welded up the rear diff pretty much go anywhere aha
Lore Enforcer 420 jäjo698üolklĺ i7ki7olk
Ce dimensiune au anvelopele de pe Samurai?
Suzuki the best off road car in the world.
Wrangler's dick.
😎
saved by weight.
E inaltat Suzi, sau cum l-a scos fabrica?
andre es el mejor
welldone!
SUZUKIMOSAFUUUUKAAAAAA:-D
Los dos son camperos de verdad, al wrangler le faltó chofer
Congratulations Pedro you made it up the hill but you still don't get a green card hahahahahahaha
They probably dont want a green card with the way trump is running shit here plus all the beautiful women in their country lol
someone needs a locker lol
