wow , got mine ( non turbo version ) up to 70mph ( 114mph ) and decided to keep highway speed to 60mph and live another day. this video is more impressive than anyone driving a lambo.
I am just wondering if you were running the standard size tires on yours as I want to lift mine and go with 30" tires but dont want to lose a ton of speed
That's an awesome combo, I've inquired about a few Alto Works myself but haven't pulled the trigger yet. One of those or a Cappucino will likely be my next car purchase
Sorry for the late reply! In this video the tires are 30"x9.5" and are on Jeep XJ 10-hole 15x7 wheels, not sure of offset. It has a 2" spacer lift to fit them. Right now I've switched to a 225/75r15 tire on the stock wheels. They don't look as good but they rub less. Both require a spacer. I'm unsure of the spacer size but I would guess about a half inch
I had a 1980 Subaru GL and it really wasn't much faster than this, lol. I resorted to using hi test when in aggressive traffic. It helped only a little. In the mountains on the interstate I had to go to 3rd gear and top speed was about 48mph up hill. The 4 speed got me about 32 mpg. It would up anything in 1st gear.
Dude! Your on 476! I hope I see you on the road. I'm in Philly... I'm sensitive to sound from being a drummer so I would also get a migraine driving in that after a while.
@@okeiautomotive4548 Dude! I go to that whole foods sometimes and grew up going to the Plymouth Meeting Mall. I'm from Flourtown which borders Whitemarsh.
7k-8,000 theoretically I think it would hit 85mph in that range it's also power / Weight Ratio & gearing & u might get 40mpg out of the gas diesel 50mpg
I would get one. My only gripe is the safety; Perfect practical city car but if you live in a populous city and you get hit from the side in this thing it doesn't look fun.
I'm guessing smaller diameter street tires compared to large AT/MT tires would help. Can you do another test using maybe some common road or HT tires? Theoretically, it should be lighter, grips more on the road, and must be less work for the engine
I've actually since switched the car back to a smaller 205/75r15 all season and can tell you my top speed is significantly lower now. The smaller tire translates to much higher RPMs at the same speed
That's a really interesting idea, to be honest I've been impressed with the factory sound insulation, most of the noise comes from the engine working so hard at higher speeds. Something like a Camry 2.4 would be an insane jump in power, it would probably be a great driving experience. It would be a tight fit though, it's a really small engine bay. Honestly a V6 might fit better than a bigger 4 cylinder, there's a good bit of room on the sides of the engine but it couldn't be much longer
@@okeiautomotive4548 oh I see and I think you are right, if the engine could achieve highway speeds at 3000 rpm then there would probably be no need to upgrade the sound insulation. But If you need motivation to do it then look up "Smart Car with Hayabusa Turbo Engine" LOL
If u played racing games like Gran Turismo. Or watched anime u might have seen them. honda, Suzuki Mazda Subaru built them I forgot if Toyota did. They were built for low tax over the years they had 1 ,2, 3, 4 cyl between 125cc 360cc 660cc as in like 0.66L engines. 2stroketurbo channel he has some & works on them too
For sure. From what I've seen in discussion in the Paj Mini owners Facebook group it seems like the 5-speed owners do have slightly lower RPMs on the highway
So I went back to smaller road tread tires for a bit. The larger tires contributed a lot to the noise, but it actually felt less stable on smaller tires. The wider track of the big tires allowed a lot of body roll but didn't feel as much like the car was gonna tip over
I'm not sure but if you're on Facebook I recommend joining the groups Pajero Mini USA and Mitsubishi Pajero Owners Club. They can probably point you in the right direction
I honestly don't have any desire to do it again. We regularly cruise at around 65mph in it, it's a daily driver, but rarely go over 70 because the noise becomes unpleasant tbh

Finally found the car that actually fits in those “Compact Car” spots at Starbucks.
JAJAJAJAJ😂😅😂😅😂
Thank you for the review. I owned an 89 Suzuki Sidekick, slightly larger, and LOVED IT! Simple, utilitarian, 28mpg 4WD
I own an identical Pajero, except mine is a 5 speed. Haven't taken mine over 70 yet. I also have a Suzuki Alto works turbo
That's an awesome combo, I've inquired about a few Alto Works myself but haven't pulled the trigger yet. One of those or a Cappucino will likely be my next car purchase
These little trucks are awesome!
Nice pajero mini! What brand and size of tires you running? What are the wheels/wheel specs? Thanks! Enjoyed this video.
PSR LIKES JDM 😍😍

@@okeiautomotive4548 awesome thanks for the reply!
Great video, thank you 👍
I think my Suzuki DR650 can almost match your horsepower! Sick car though dude!
Lol I definitely think you'd have me in a drag race
@@okeiautomotive4548 of course he would, dr650 does 0-60 mph in 5.2 seconds
@@Anathem22 that's why he said it would lol
I was thinking the same thing

What tires did you have on the car at this point? You did mention temperature staying normal. Have you seen any overheating ever?

Death traps. Crazy to drive on highway.
Lol I tell my wife people ride motorcycles on highways, I'm safer than them!

@@okeiautomotive4548 Oh? I'll surely take note of that! I'm looking into buying one for myself. Thank you. Looking forward to more Pajero Mini vids
am very like this car, small and wild
Auto or manual trans? Not sure if diff gears are different.
This is a 3 speed auto. Idk if the final drive is different but the 5 speed manuals do have a bit lower RPM on the highway
I would like to know how sound insulation and Camry engine swap would change how this car drives

Mine is pajero mini 660cc with turbo and it can run 100 idk what the real speed because i upgraded to bigger tires.
🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍

2stroketurbo channel he has some & works on them too
Yep, Kei cars. That's where my channel gets its name. I have another one now, a Suzuki Alto Works, I'm finishing up a video on it.
was that auto or 5 speed ?
This one is the 3 speed auto
@@okeiautomotive4548 If it was the 5-speed, do you think it would handle the higher speeds better?
For sure. From what I've seen in discussion in the Paj Mini owners Facebook group it seems like the 5-speed owners do have slightly lower RPMs on the highway
5 speed manual is way to go.
but is the noise and rolling feeling cause of the lift and tires tho
So I went back to smaller road tread tires for a bit. The larger tires contributed a lot to the noise, but it actually felt less stable on smaller tires. The wider track of the big tires allowed a lot of body roll but didn't feel as much like the car was gonna tip over
how is the fuel consumption sir?
Just ok. I usually average about 20mpg. I believe the manuals get a little better
Cost
How much is valve clearance for intake and exhaust on 660cc Turbo? Where to get manual?
I'm not sure but if you're on Facebook I recommend joining the groups Pajero Mini USA and Mitsubishi Pajero Owners Club. They can probably point you in the right direction
motor is honing, lol
Yeah I wouldn't do this to it again lol but it's still running strong as ever after another year of daily driving
Hi you.r wife Vic.. bitty fully
Too bad I could not hear you .
Yeah mics are expensive unfortunately. Phone is all I've got for now
Don’t do that again, you cannot survive a flip in a kei at that speed, if you do, leave your wife at home. I’m serious
I honestly don't have any desire to do it again. We regularly cruise at around 65mph in it, it's a daily driver, but rarely go over 70 because the noise becomes unpleasant tbh
YOU VAN ALSO PUT A 1100 CC PAJERO JUNIOR ENGINE IN IT . ITS NON TURBO BUT MORE POWERFUL AND RELIABLE
