Hi
Seems I can only buy a set of pistons...But I only need one.
So I am looking for a single piston to fit the G13BA 1298cc engine. Rings to go with it too (number 3 piston if that makes any difference.)
Maybe you have a good condition 2nd hand one or a left over one from a set?
I am in Sydney, but will pay postage if you are not.
Thanks
Jamie

If you are replacing one piston I would replace them all with new rings and a hone. She'll be like new.
Why only one?

Yea mate seriously while its apart get a set of std pistons and rings if the bore is still ok and has no lip. Do a quick hone, smash them in and she'll be sweet!

Haha. Ok, I had no idea it was standard practice to replace all 4 at once. I fugured a 2nd hand one would not be a problem. Wrong obviously!
I will get a full set and rings in there. Not honing it but...its just a suzuki!! haha
thanks
and yes...i am a tight arse.
Why would u noit want to buy it...It ran for a month with only 3 and a half pistons! Obviously bulletproof.
