You really need to torque the flywheel (crank will distort, cause an oil leak from the rear main) and torque the pressure plate. They are just as vital as internal engine stuffs.
Bypass throttle body coolant feed for your turbo - feed and drain in one.

All the calculators list the comp height on the vitara's as 28.0mm. I have measured it and it is 28.5mm. Also there is no exact info on the dish volume. Using the correct comp height with the 8cc dish yeilds a 9.6:1 comp ratio. Although I have seen the dish volume listed as near 12cc also.
I have about 3000+ miles on my D15B with LS/Vitara's and the compression is 190 across. 2-3% leakdown.
Although the bores were very clean when I rebuilt it. I didn't hone the walls at all. The original hone marks wre still present.

flywheel bolts get same treatment as lug nuts, PP bolts get installed via air ratchet.

Since I got sick of seeing rear mains die at 20K miles, the clutch deal might be a nonissue, but if you get them too loose (so they work free over time) then the clutch shows it's ***.
