Suzuki underdog build

[Suburuuh]

Zo die was rot

Daily staat leuk op zijn wielen, maar die getrokken banden en dan nog wat wheelgap...

Maar ik snap het wel .... als daily, maar zou dan zelf niet zo getrokken gaan als ik niet zo laag kon om het te laten tucken

[Pauluzz]

And done some more work on the project Swift mk1:

Taken apart the carbs


Ultrasonic cleaned them:




New gaskets and new filters:




Took apart the SSR rims (factory 3-piece and factory welded) well, not anymore!


Drilled some extra boltholes:


Painted the inner lips:



And painted the centers:


Need to order wider outerlips now

[Pauluzz]

Updates!! Couldn't keep my hands of the daily. Did some maintenance work on the rear strut:










And rolled the arches, put DZ exklusif wheels on it (front 7,5J, rear 9J), and lowered it a bit more (could go lower, but it's still my daily)

I've converted the volume knob to bass remote

[Dome]

Nice to hear that, enjoy your time

[Pauluzz]

The project’s been quiet for a while. I’ve been in a break-up (after 6 years), a lot of time and energy wasted on that sh*t. Now a lot of time, energy en money gets wasted on other girls. I just love being single again hah!
Been collecting some parts to continue the engineswap. It will resume in January, deadline is April.

So awesome, love when little cars like these get played with.

[loekaaz]

Damn, honestly, I didn't expect it to be this good....

[Suburuuh]

Nice cars. Question though; why not do a full resto and build up?

You've got a daily and the car is so small, so it takes less effort I guess.


Like the ssr find and engine bay and the plans sounds right!

This thing looks great, nice pickup on the ssr's!

[Dr.AK]

Front looks perfect, get wider lips for the rear instead!

[06tiburonofdoom]

YES.
Being a Samurai/Jimny enthusiast, I can't help but have a soft spot for the first gen Swifts.
G13B, I presume? I'd LOVE to get one of those for a tintop Samurai.
Looking good so far!

[Pauluzz]

Fitted the rims and the front ones will need smaller lips. In the near future I want to go wider, but first I just want them to fit the car without having to customize the sh*t out of the guards and undercarriage.

Rear:






Front:

Got my hands on electric windows for the mk1 Swift, pretty unique!



I've sold the Ally Cat rims and got me a unique JDM set real japanse rims.
13" SSR Dunlop T-E, 6J 3-piece!








The rims are 3-piece, but welded together. Two lip are damaged and need to be replaced for wider ones, so we're gonna cut the welds.

I had an opportunity to buy BC Racing coilovers for the Estate... so I did!!



















Sorry for the crappy phone pics, but I'm very happy with the result!!

Wheelporn updates will follow soon on the mk1 Swift.
