Re: SJ413 engine conversion to Swift GTI 1.3 Mk 2 Ph 1 engine

Cheers, I have found the connectors and loom that fit the ECU that came with the project. The connectors seem to line up and fit nicely. I'm a long way from putting the wiring to the test, so thanks for the offer, and once i get to the engine wiring stage I should know if my loom will work.

Re: Transmission Brake Conversion SJ 413

Cheers for the advice. A local small engineering company are going to swap the 413 and 410 flange and insert my 413 UJ to the 410 flange. That way the propshaft length should be no different. Going to have a close look at the tran brake cable to day and see what i need to to do.

Cheers

Re: Transmission Brake Conversion SJ 413

No unfortunately not. Its a 1989 SJ413 and the yoke spacing between holes is 61mm +/-1mm. The drum/backplate/mechanism/cable I purchased for £40 came off a SJ410 and the spacing between the studs on the drum is 57mm +/-1mm. So I bought the SJ410 prop shaft to fit the drum. The longer section of the ...

Transmission Brake Conversion SJ 413

Hi, The rear disk conversion is one of the many jobs to do on my SJ 413. I have been offered a transmission brake drum, backplate (incl mechanism) and cable. Any advice on what to watch out for (its not cheap) before I commit. I have read through one of the posts but would be interested to know if a...

Samurai SJ 413 1989 REBUILD PROJECT

I have taken over a Samurai SJ413 1989 project that has a 1991 Swift Mk2 DOHC 1.3 GTI engine fitted but none runner at the moment. Hats off to Chris who ran out of time, but has done a sterling job so far. There's some welding to do first followed by electrics to get the engine running. I am struggl...

Re: HELP!! No brake pedal after rear disc conv.

Thanks for the info. Looks like the transfer box and gear box are standard with no transmission handbrake. Do you know if this is a straight forward conversion, probably needs a drum fitting in the drive chain.

Cheers

Re: SJ413 engine conversion to Swift GTI 1.3 Mk 2 Ph 1 engine

Thanks for the quick response ScottieJ, I follow your logic about the exhaust, perhaps I'm overplaying things, just thought that the ECU would be demanding feedback from any sensors mounted on a Swift exhaust before it would start and run ok. I'll need to invest in the Swift electrical diagrams for ...

Re: HELP!! No brake pedal after rear disc conv.

Hi, Just reading up on the problem you had regarding brakes. I have a SJ413 with rear disks fitted by the recently previous owner, so taking stock of what to do at the moment. I have 2 used calipers to fit to the rear disks and I'm not sure what vehicle they came off. So I need to fit the calipers a...

SJ413 engine conversion to Swift GTI 1.3 Mk 2 Ph 1 engine

Just bought a part finished project SJ 413, which is halfway through the engine conversion. The Donor engine is a from a 1991 Suzuki Swift Mk 2, 1.3 DOHC Fuel Injected GTI Phase 1. Before I spiral into error after error and waste money is there anyone out there that can give me some advice. The pict...
