1.8 liter in Jimny

im loveing this topic lads ur geting me thinking about doing this now. im also seeing ££££££££££££ going out the wallet aswell

Does no one have experience of putting J20 into jimny with an M13 engine. Rhinoman, said it is a lot more work than fit another M engine, because it needs a custom machined flywheel among other issues. I wonder what those issues are? And I believe its a big deal the use the transmission with the J20 engine because of lack of space and it has the transfer box built in.
Or is the J20 just nonsense, should I just go for the M16 engine as we don't have the M18 here?

Shamron,

Your Jimny's ECU will not be able to run a M18 if your Jimny is a non VVT. This is because Suzuki only manufactures M18 engines with VVT, and non VVT ECUs will not be able to run a VVT.

That is, if you are talking about Jimny's, not Liana's...
