  • Monster Sport was started by legendary rally hill climb racing driver, tuning shop owner, rally team manager Nobuhiro Tajima. Nicknamed ‘Monster Tajima’. In 1983, he formed ‘Suzuki Sport’ which was effectively the Motorsport arm for Suzuki Motors to complete in top level racing, rally and the infamous Pikes Peak Hillclimb challenge. Players of the early Gran Turismo game series will probably remember the ‘Pikes Peak Escudo’ A 900hp twin engine belonged and front spoiler monster car that Tajima San brought to victory in 1995. Monster sport also campaigned various Swift models in the Junior WRC. Winning many rallies and helping to develop tuning parts for Suzuki sports cars.
    Join us as we visit one of their Monster Sport in Machida as we begin to explore the history, concept and philosophy behind Monster Sport and Tajima San’s legacy. On display is the latest ZC33S Swift Sport demo car. With a complete engine with aftermarket turbos, ECU and intake & exhaust tuned by Monster engineers to give 200PS and 32kgm. The potential of this compact front drive car will be interesting to explore in future episodes.

    Corrections from Masa
    22:47 Capt mentioned about Alto had DSG but its actually called 5 speed AGS which is Single clutch auto transmission.
    24:25 The orange Swift is actually Swift Sport . Swift Sport actually comes with either 6 Speed Auto or 6 Speed Manual
    26:33 The Jimny you see is actually 4th gen model, JB64

    A small reminder/correction the Escudo/Vitara platforms were Mid engine 4wd using a 2.5-2.9 V6 Twin Turbo engine set up around a tube frame. The Cultus/Swift platforms were twin engined based on the G13B twin cam or the G16b twincam hybrid matting a G16 1.6lt Vitara/Esteem block with a G13B Twin cam head from Cultus/Swift GTi.✌👌

    Hi there ✌🏼
    Thanks for dealing some much passion 🙏🏼
    I used to drive a SSS1 Z31S
    I can tell it is a real sport car and i a way,
    A new age Honda Civic EG5 brother.
    I mean, it is the same recipe,
    1.6L NA, tiny car, fun to drive, easy maintenance, cheap repairs etc etc
    Just the fact that new Civic has gone bigger and more powerful, so they are in higher class now, from 200HP for the EP3 to 300+ for the FK2 /8 model so, for 1990's crazy fans like me,
    Want some tiny "Gti" - ish cars, the SSS1 and SSS2 are best!
    Then the SSS3, is the last GTi ish car in the modern product i believe.
    Reason why i love it, even if they are some changes like the Turbo but, i feel it's the way it have to go.
    Thanks Monster Tajima! 🇯🇵💪🏼😎
    Honda has Ichichima-San,
    Suzuki has Tajima - San 👏🏼

    From France with passion and respect ✌🏼🇫🇷😎

    Great video and that Suzuki Jimny is looking amazing, in my country Guatemala (グアテマラ) it was known as the Suzuki Samurai but they renamed when introduced this one. Previous generations of the car have been amazing for offroad, and I mean true off road (not going just over dirt) with rocks, mud, etc. This is due to the distance between axes is pretty short and its lightweight it wont get stucked easily, and if it does, its easy to push it.
    I ever get a last gen Jimny im definately upgrading it with some Monster aftermarket parts.
