The growing Suzuki Swift Sport tuning scene continues to evolve! The latest release from legendary Japanese tuning house TODA Racing for the ZC31S model’s M16A 16-valve engine is a big bore piston kit for those seeking serious power from a turbo or supercharged Swift Sport.

TODA’s big bore piston kit uses Ø 85.00 mm forged pistons, which in conjunction with the standard 83 mm stroke crankshaft increases capacity from 1,586cc to 1,884cc. Thanks to TODA’s low compression 10:1 design, these forged pistons are specifically designed for forced induction applications. 

Key features of the TODA Racing ZC31S M16A Suzuki Swift Sport big bore piston kit include:-

* Ø 85.00 mm bore (standard 78.00 mm) * 10:1 compression ratio, ideal for forced induction applications * High pressure (3000 tonne press) forged alloy design for strength * Defric coating on piston skirt to reduce friction and increase durability * Pistons balanced +/- 0.25 grams * High strength gudgeon pins * Improved oil drainage system

Priced at £730.00 excluding VAT, this product must be used in combination with the TODA Power Liner Kit and the TODA High Stopper Metal Head Gasket. TODA Racing also supplies a high compression version using 12.2:1 pistons for high power normally aspirated Suzuki Swift Sport M16A engine builds.

Honda’s K24A motor is increasingly finding its way into the engine bays of Civic and Integra models. Why? Because it’s an easy swap to mate the K20A I-VTEC engine’s cylinder head to the K24A’s block, thus creating a big bore ‘gorilla’ engine at relatively low cost that easily fits straight into a Civic EP3, FN2 or Integra DC-5.

But to produce a really high power K24A / I-VTEC engine requires super strong internals, which is where TODA Racing’s expertise is unparalleled, hence its latest releases for the big bore Honda motor; a high compression forged piston and I-beam connecting rod set, plus a ‘High Stopper’ metal head gasket. 

i) TODA K24A High compression forged alloy pistons and I-section con rods

Available in two bore sizes (87.00mm and 87.50mm,) the TODA Racing forged high compression ‘power profile’ pistons produce capacities of 2354cc and 2381cc when used with the standard 99mm stroke K24A crankshaft. The TODA Racing K24A pistons are CNC machined to a crown volume of 6.5cc and are produced from the highest quality aluminium forgings on a 3000 tonne press.

Key technical features of the TODA Racing K24A pistons include:- 

-          Balanced as a set to within +/- 0.25 grammes

-          Improved oil removal system designed for tuned applications

-          High strength gudgeon pins

-          Defric coating applied to skirts to aid running in and reduce internal friction

Produced from the highest quality forged chrome moly steel, the TODA Racing I-beam connecting rods are the ideal compliment to the forged pistons and come complete with fully floating small end bushes and are fully balanced as a set.

The TODA K24A high compression piston and forged I-section connecting rods are available now from TODA Europe, carrying parts numbers priced at £1145.00 including VAT @ 17.5%.

ii) TODA ‘High Stopper’ metal head gasket

Designed specifically to provide the ultimate seal for big bore K24A block / K20A I-VTEC headed ‘gorilla’ engines, the metal ‘High stopper’ gasket is available in three different formats which accommodate the differences between the older and newer style K20A I-VTEC cylinder heads:-

a) For EP-3 / DC-5 K20A I-VTEC heads onto K24A block, 0.6mm thick

b) For FD2 / FN2 K20A I-VTEC heads onto K24A block, 0.3mm thick

c) For FD2 / FN2 K20A I-VTEC heads onto K24A block, 0.6mm thick

The TODA Racing ‘High Stopper’ metal head gaskets are available now from TODA Europe, priced at £155.25 including VAT @ 17.5%.
