Hi I'm new to the forum and was hoping for some advice I want to rebuild the f5a I can't seem
to find new pistons can some one help or is there a piston from another engine that will fit any
other info on performance parts such as cams ,adjustable cam gears etc would be great.

I was also thinking of the 800cc engine swap carby not efi if some one in Perth would sell one any condition

Best place to go to in Perth is SuziStore. Apparently they're really helpful.

gday killa,

try Peter at Suzishop - Beckenham - he is a Suzi guru from way back.
he has helped me a fair bit with my boy.

I have seen new engine parts at his shop. hate to put you off but
you are wasting your time + coin hotting up an F5A.

You will be better off spending your time hunting an F8B to rebuild....

Keep in touch as I may have some parts to help you out with unless you
sorted it already. Good luck with it Killa. :)

unless you want to keep the boy totally standard in all areas go with hunting a F8B and rebuilding that,
I on the other hand am taking my boy back to totally standard which includes hunting down standard wheels, radio, and rebuilding the F5A and a little body work repair and general replacing some worn out consumables with new (eg brake boosteres,pads,suspension rubbers)
