List of Engines to Swap in

I think that's a great tool, I just downloaded it and looked at my swift GTi option and I have to the admit the Grand Vitara option is a better bet, same power (but delivered lower) and a heap more torque - which is what really matters.

Perhaps add it in the Wiki pages?

Thanks,
The idea was to create a quick comparison guide in one place so you don't go cross eyed googling.
I'll give it a month or so to see how many more engines are requested to be added then I'll get it on the wiki.

for mine!

Engine code? I'll add it to the list.

The 2.0 zetec is alright, but bettered by the 2.0 Duratec which is a variation of the engine the newer MX5s use. Rwd gearboxes are readily available. The code for the Mazda engine is MZR 14. Weight is 102kg. Power is 157hp. Torque 140 ft.lbf.

It would definitely be a great engine in the Jimny and an easy fit.

It's worth pointing out that due to the simple format of the Jimny there is a vast array of petrol engines that could be made to work with a little effort.

4cyl engines with readily available rwd gearboxes:
Rover K-series.
Any BMW 4cyl.
Any Mazda MX5 engine.
Most Ford engines.
Older Vauxhall engines.
Nissan SR20DE(T)
Honda S2000.

Sorry not a clue. He dose the work, I just have to find the cash!

AFAIK a J20A is also fittable.

Can this post be made sticky?

I'll start working on that list.

I'll add the j20.

OllieNZ - you have made a rod for your own back here!

Thanks for adding the VVTs in. I think its wrong though as it says a m13aVVT has 100+ BHP, which mine defo dont have.

Its a brilliant resource for all, thanks for sharing

It would seem so but no worries

The figures for the M13a vvt are for the Swift, I'll have to check the Jimny numbers

Thats interesting then, wonder what the differences are from the swift and jimny setups..
