What a pity, is like an irony of life isn’t? Normally you want a determined model of car to own. But depending where are you living some cars are not so loved for some or other reason.
Well the Honda Beat is that kind of Kei Car that you always from Gran Turismo series and has love from JDM enthusiast all around the world. Even here Beat is more or less expensive car to buy but sometimes they are also forgotten in a parking lot.
High Bridge First is a Jimmny specialist located in Uji-shi. I had the opportunity last week to spend sometime with them. As always japanese people is so kind and they always want to show you everything about their workshops.
As an Jimny specialist the workshop is fully invaded for that small all terrain car. The is a particularity about Jimny’s in Japan as they are built as a kei car which is 660cc and as Suzuki sold them in Europe 1.300cc. Easy to difference them as kei cars has yellow plates.
Kei Car Jimny’s have 660cc Turbo K6A-engined pushing 63ps from factory. The larger 1.3-litre Jimny was originally equipped with the G13BB engine pushing 80ps.
Basically High Bridge First is a performance garage for upgrading your Jimny into an off road monster. They got everything you need, suspension, exhaust, roll cages and ECU reprogramming as well as all kind of accessories for inside and outside.
This red Suzuki is a mini van named Suzuki EVERY. Like for everyday usage. Equipped with bags the guys of High Brige First made a small show with the car lifting in it which in fact was very funny to watch.
Just in case you need to contact them to upgrade your Jimny please visit:
What a nice surprise today. Walking you discover many things… I spotted this shop, is Suzuki Dealer but is like a specialist for kei cars.
There were many Cappuccinos, some AZ’s and some normal cars. But despite this, they had like four or five cars just for racing also for sale. The Daihatsu ESSA was even tuned.
I have never seen an AZ1 so close, and then suddenly that shop had like four of them. Very small and very lovely kei car.
That last Capu was like OMG I wanted…
That hellaflush is a fast growing trend in Japan is nothing new if you’re a regular visitor of key internet blogs.
We new to go back to usable cars sometimes to do not get crazy about super stylished cars.
You can be sure that the Honda Beat is one of our favorite Kei Cars of all years!
