Just found out my petroworks kit is on it's way from lowrange. So I've got a couple of quick questions to ask.


The fuel pump. I can just use my standard tank and rig up an external mounted high pressure pump. Now should just go buy a Bosch vl turbo pump or is there a cheaper better option??

The clutch. Everyone says hd clutches are bad luck. I'm keeping the 1.3 box. So I think I'll just run a well known STD clutch? Exedy?

Radiator. Aftermarket alluminium 1.3 or a vitara one??

Main rear seal. Are all the 1.6efi the same as I purchased a import one. If u find the engine number can I just rake that to Suzuki?? Is there any other seals I should purchase at the same time say sump seal??

Radiator. Aftermarket alluminium 1.3 or a vitara one?? A new stock 1.3 one will do the trick if you keep the vit viscous fan

Main rear seal. Are all the 1.6efi the same as I purchased a import one. If u find the engine number can I just rake that to Suzuki?? Is there any other seals I should purchase at the same time say sump seal?? Should be no difference, sump seal use ultragrey

I think I'll just buy a genuine clutch cable and always keep my old one as a spare inboard if I go hd

Use the vitara radiator with the fan shroud and viscous fan. It looks neater and it's designed for the 1.6L engine so no cooling problems.

What do you need to do in order for the efi to work? Much wiring required?
