| Post subject: | G16b Gearbox into J20a GV |
Gearbox in the wife's GV needs a rebuild and have been quoted more than I'm willing to pay as the car has seen better days. I was hoping just to do a gearbox swap but there doesn't seem to be any 2nd hand boxes out there atm. I have briefly seen comments online about the possibility of the g16b Boxes being the same but after google search and the search function here I can't seem to get an exact answer. Are they the same, can I get a g16b Gearbox and mate it up to the engine or will there be more to it than that? With the price given for a rebuild I'm looking at just using that cash towards buying her a new model. |

The question is what are you getting the G16b gearbox from - if it's from an SQ416, it should work, if it's from an SE416, I think it can be made to work, but don't expect it to be a direct swap... |

Is the GV a 2.0 4cyl or V6? 1.6 and 2.0 are all but the same, with a different 5th gear ratio. V6 has different bellhousing |

2.0 4cyl J20a as listed in the title (forgot to put it in the question)... I haven't got a donor gearbox as yet, my question was made because if it can be swapped them I can try and chase one from a g16b instead of the intended j20a gearbox. If the SQ416 fits straight up then that might be an option for me to look into. |

ah yes, there it is... If you are half way mechanically minded then a gearbox rebuild is not so hard. I've done a couple with no previous experience. Around $300 in parts and supplies. You can buy the bearing kits on ebay from the UK. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Suzuki-Gran ... SwVlVaAwLT |

Ah right, now I get it. There’s a truly tiny number of SQ416’s in Australia. Miniscule numbers. |
