Gawdzuki Posted January 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 Most of the engine (top end) in the datsun was gone when I got to it. Since the G13B (Suzuki swift gti) shared a lot with the Suzuki samurai and Sidekick, the transmission from one of my previous projects will easily convert the Suzuki swift front wheel drive engine to a rwd setup. There will be some fabricating to do to get everything to come together. But, should not be as hard as a V8 pinto, or my 1.6 turbo diesel Samurai. I look forward to this project and as much information as I can get from everyone on here. I will get a good look under the hood this weekend. Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 There is a member here who did the same swap on a 411 and it was awesome. I'm trying to find his thread. 1 Quote Link to comment
