After reading this post I decided to do some searching and this is what I came up with.
Vitara pistons should face the flywheel in a Honda motor, because the motors have the timing belt on the opposite side.
Which means if both motors where sitting next to each other with the exhaust side facing you.
VITARA T belt <-- left
Honda T belt --> rightThe pistons will work both ways this is proven, but I believe this is the correct way to install the piston for maximum performance.
If anyone has any Info as to why they think Im wrong please do not hesitate to make your case known.
Post factual information, Not the usual well this is what my local autozone guy told me.

Pulled from a vitara workshop manual.
