JDM Street Tuning Alto Works, stroker 175hp legal go-cart! (47 pix)

Every second day I will be posting pictures of some of the cars that I got a chance to own and enjoy. These fine tuned JDM street legal amateur

Please get familiarized with 1990 Suzuki Alto Works RS-X.
Its a front wheel drive, front engine Kei car. Absence of useless 4WD offered on this model makes the car particularly light.
Its weight is around 1870 lbs, with me inside and full tank of gas. It has tiny 3 cylinder steel engine; originally 660cc, stroked to 720cc. Fully upgraded with fuel system, drive train and entire suspension setup is by Suzuki Sport.
The entire build and list of mods are incredible, very clean and well put together. Lets not mention that traction is one of the problems, that's to no wonder 1.4 bar boost makes this car to put out 175hp @8500rpm, yes at 8500rpm.

F6A twin-cam engine
68 mm pistons

2.0 mm Suzuki sport metal head gasket

  2. Hey there, I am the current owner of this wild little car.
    I have it posted on cardomain.com as well.
    I have engine torned down right now.
    the piston to bore clearances where too much. It burnt pistons and wrecked piston rings and ring grooves, as it turns out the piston were a 67mm which made displacement at 698cc but the next set of 68mm pistons will put up to 720cc.
    The trans I thought was going to need a LSD but now will double check to see, the trans has been polished and I have powder coated 30 pieces and it looks awesome.
    I can post a hundred newer pictures of the build.
