1999 Suzuki Jimny JB33 Wide

1999 Suzuki Jimny JB33 Wide 1.3 – The Rare and Powerful JDM Off-Roader

When most Jimnys arriving in the U.S. carry the small 660 cc turbo engine, this one stands apart. The JB33 Wide variant came equipped with a 1.3-liter G13B engine, offering noticeably more torque, smoother highway cruising, and a reputation for exceptional reliability. These wider-body Jimnys were produced mainly for Japan’s domestic market and rarely exported – only a handful made it to the U.S.

This example shows 95,684 km (≈59,450 miles) and is in excellent condition inside and out. The 1.3 L engine pulls strong both on road and off road, paired with an automatic transmission and a selectable 4WD system (2H / 4H / 4L). It features a clean white exterior with gray accent body kit, roof rails, factory fog lights, and a classic fender-mounted parking mirror. The rear spare tire has been removed to lighten the rear door and preserve hinges – a smart and common upgrade for longevity.

Inside, you’ll find a gray interior in great shape, modern CarPlay audio, and cold A/C. Maintenance has been done thoroughly – new front brakes, fresh off-road tires, and a complete inspection. Everything works as it should, including the 4WD system.

The JB33’s 1.3 engine makes this Jimny far more capable on the highway while still retaining the legendary off-road performance the model is known for. It’s the ideal balance between lightweight design and real-world usability – and one of the rarest engine options you’ll find in the U.S.
