Hi Ger cracking stuff mate, done the same swap myself. Your NC500 vids inspired me to drive my jimny over from ireland to do the same, NC500 and 10000 miles later still going strong, The m16 makes such a difference. Best of luck with it 👍
Wow You just get better my day! I also have a 2006 Suzuki swift 4x4 with the 1.3 non vvt, since here in italy all the m family engines are pretty rare i should find a non vvt engine as i thought... My car is slow up hills and love to drink fuel (where i live it does 10 km per liter of fuel) So you have done nothing with the ecu? Wonderful
@@riccardodefina9551 yes drives much better, it’s hard to tell, I think there has been an increase in how much fuel it uses, but it doesn’t seem like much more. As for performance it makes a real difference. The car is so overweight the 1.3 couldn’t cope now it drives like it should
@@oxdudepoege I believe the amount of teeth are different. To be honest I didn’t count them but I read somewhere that they were different and I had recently brought a brand-new starter motor for my Jimny so I wanted to use that. I’m sure using the Liana Starer and flywheel together would be absolutely fine. But if you was thinking about combining them I would definitely check they are the same first
I did think afterwards it probably would’ve been better to use the 1.6 starter and flywheel combo as the Jimny now has a bit more compression, it might be less strain, but it seems to be working okay atm. If it struggles later on I will change it over next time I do the clutch.
@@GERfusion thx for your response. As you mention compression. Did you never ran into problem with lean condition with the 1.3 injectors on the 1.6 block. For my understaanding the motor should get lesser fuel with the "wrong" injectors and the "wrong" ecu. Or does the ecu somehow recognizes the new motor and adapts its values to it?
@@oxdudepoege I haven’t driven it that much with the 1.3 injectors it seems to drive fine with very little loss in power from the 1.6 injectors. But what i’m going to do is run it for a while, do some nice long journeys in it, then i’ll whip the plugs out and check the colour see if it’s a bit lean.

@@cianwhelan7461 is it that much of a difference??
@@cianwhelan7461 Thanks so much for the comment. Really nice to know thanks. Yes it’s the best mod I’ve done. Cheers
@@darrenmower3647 definitely! I I mean, it’s no Ferrari but drives much better
Brilliant Gary. You’re a very clever lad! Great video 👍
@@Steve-ee3zl cheers 👍🏼

@@riccardodefina9551 thanks for comment. No ECU is the same. Time will tell but so far it’s going strong still so i’m really happy with it
@GERfusion and does it go noticeable better? And fuel consumption decreased a bit when going slow?

@@GERfusion its a pity that in italy the m16a non vvt is rare, wish me luck ahahah
Have a good one 👍🏼👋🏼
@ Good luck mate! Keep your eye out something may pop up. If not get the swift lump and change cams , sprocket, and chain over.
Fantastic video, turbo next 😂
@@david5429 that would make a good video haha
Really informative 👏 cheers
@@darrenmower3647 cheers 👍🏼
Lots of room for a turbo there 🤔😏
@@baileyhoward1076 haha deffo considering it!!!!
Could you further explain why the liana flywheel and starter motor cant stay on the engine?

Running wise, it doesn’t seem to be any different. No engine management lights or anything like that.
