G13B is one of the stoutest engines ever designed. Saw one once, stock bottom end with Vitara pistons to lower the CR, making 375 whp off a T3/T04E.

I like your car, been wanting one.

Best looking Swift I've seen, looks really clean.

I smashed the ---- outta one of those in my huge dodge workvan like a year ago. Poor old ppl driving were all bloody and crying and ----. Really scared the ---- outta me. That thing was so mangeled.. I think i hit it at about 50-55 while they were sitting in the middle of the road at a dead stop. Needless to say the van was not nearly as damaged as the lil swift.

those things come with pretty high compression, 10.2:1 i believe. you have lots of room to work with since it didnt came with a/c. if you cut out that swiss cheese grate thing that next to the radiator there is a massive space for a turbo. wiehing in at ~1800lbs, 250hp should get you deep into 12's if not quicker.

Yeah, but if you'd hit a CRX, the occupants of it would have been dead.

Yes i know, but a replacment comes really cheap

Yes, there are a few powerfull swifts out there, a 300bhp one holds AUS FWD record on street tyres with a 11sec pass...
I already have the vitara pistons, 75mm and 8.5:1 c/r VS. 10:1 stock...But it´s for a second stage, right now the engine will be stock internally and will only run 7psi max...

More pics for you guys, of the swifts i had:

Same platform as a metro? I wonder if you could swap the motor...
