SA413 Swift GTi

In October 1986, Suzuki released the performance oriented SA413 Swift AA33S GTi into the Australian market. Available only as a 3 door hatch with a 5 speed manual gearbox and ventilated front disc brakes, the GTi featured the G13B engine, a 1.3 litre, double overhead cam, multipoint fuel injected motor, good for 74kw (100HP) at the front wheels, 0-100K's in 9.5 seconds and a top speed of 180KPH (111.8MPH). Exterior styling boasted larger, lower front and rear bars, incorporating fog lights on the front. Side skirts were also fitted, as well as larger 165/65/HR13 wheels and tyres to round off the enhanced suspension package. Interior upgrades from other models included sports seating and steering wheel, a tachometer incorporated into the instrument cluster, along with power mirrors. The SA was the smallest and lightest (750Kg's) of all GTi Swifts.

As a side note, in 1988, a number of the final SA413 GTi's to run of the production line contained many components from the soon to be released SF413 MK2 model.
