Grand Vitara 06+ Parts, Accessories & a Service Manual link
EDIT 4/22/13 (Max) : Up-dates to follow
This is a guide just to help Suzuki Forums members find their GV 06+ replacement parts and accessories without fitting worries and all in once place. These are the ones I could collect. Hope it can be useful for you guys.
The above list is only of GV intended parts and accessories. The reason why I didn't put ARB on the list is because ARB doesn't have GV 06+ intended applications, all ARB products must be modified to fit the GV except for the tools like air compressors, lifts, etc. but all those are generics.

Wheels:
Bolt Pattern: 5 x 4.5" (114.3 mm)
Lug Nuts and Locks Thread Size: 12 x 1.25
Camber Angle Adjustment Bolts (Front)(For Lifted GVs)
Part No.: 81250 (Pair - 2 Bolts)
Size: 12mm * With 1 Bolt per Tire = ±2°
* With 2 Bolts per Tire = ±4°
Part No.: 81260 (Pair - 2 Bolts) [RECOMMENDED]
Size: 14mm * With 1 Bolt per Tire = ±2°
* With 2 Bolts per Tire = ±4°
Note: It is recommended to measure the currently installed factory bolt before buying as some year and market models may not fit the 81260 bolts (like 2006's GV for US market). Make sure the metric grade of the bolt you're buying is 12.9 for added security, do not buy anything less than 8.8 grade. Use only one bolt (upper) per tire to adjust the camber angle, leaving the lower factory bolt, it is actually not needed to change the lower bolt for proper angle adjustment. Rear camber angle doesn't need any aftermarket bolts for its adjustment, it can be easily adjusted with factory bolts.

Once I saw this bar and completely forgot about it as I thought it was modified to fit the GV (watch below the headlights, there's a part of the original bumper, unless the ARB one comes with this part).
But yes it has to be included.
I apologize, and thanks, any other parts or measures that you guys think it must be included just post it in and it will be taken into consideration.
I'm not really sure what you are talking about here...
The ARB bar does fit, it is purpose designed for the GV ! There is two version available, one for 2006 to 2007/8 models, and one from 2008 forward.
The car will need modifications, but, so will nearly ALL new cars, since the introduction of pedestrian safety crumble zones. Its just a bit of plastic to be cut, and some brazing of the front rails. It's all included in the mounting instructions and hardware for the bar. I did it myself, it was the easy part :-)
Soon after I got my GV I began looking for certain accessories/equipment and realized past the dealers cosmetic accessories there isn’t a big market in the US. I searched a bit and found very interesting and appealing accessories overseas. For example, Suzuki’s UK site offers a dual outlet muffler with a cat back exhaust for the diesel with a bumper cover to accept the dual outlets.
I wonder if there are members here (international) who are willing to pick some accessories up for us poor and deprived folks in the US. I would be willing to cough up the funds for the aforementioned exhaust/bumper cover as well as the bull bars & fog lights offered in Australia.
Cheers!

I'm sure you can order the ARB bars from your local US ARB. If not, let me know.

does anyone know what the recommended brakes for the GV 06 are.
I'll just recommend staying away from Bendix 4wd tough. I got those on mine, the brake ok, but take time to heat up, and while cold they are noisy. Its a bit strange.
I recommend EBC Yellow stuff and Green stuff, but they are difficult to get unless you are in the US. One set of pads are about 135 USD, both 6000 and 7000 series are available. Both are great and will give extra braking power

Can anyone give me any advice on whether the genuine all weather mats are available in Australia. Shipping is more expensive than the mat itself to australia :S
