good morning.
the first (Kicks) were made ,first 3 months of 1989 in Iwata japan, then CAMI production plant in Canada cam on line, (GM/suzuki joint plant that made Geo's/ and sidekicks and vitaras' side by side)
that hood sticker will say USA, EPA, and that NY code means for restricted states (NY and Calif, are /were that)
where the car is made and what market are 2 different things, CAMI shipped cars world wide, even to GERMANY. (e22)
Geo's where shipped to , CANADA, MARKET as, e28 , usa, E3/E33 FED/CALIF AND MEXICO, AND US POSSESSIONS (ISLANDS ) AND AFRICA AND EVEN RUSSIA.
And sold in Canada as Sunrunners, or Pontiacs. shocking yes,, (all are same car, cept, smog parts and lighting , (laws on tires,/etc)
before buying a used head . ? consider. (ask me P/n and will tell what it was off)
1: see rear view, for 10/12,
2: MPH front. not KPH. (you will not like the Kilometer per hour head, im sure)
3: Tag on bottom is Suz. Part number of whole head make sure its 92/93 (see my pdf page or for all USA heads, all are in MPH, E3 and E33 heads, (fed/calif codes)
4: and promise of no DOA. (works and no noises, load squealing as most do this old)
5: about 1/2 the fleabay sellers forgot what year the head came from and worse far worst think they fit all 89-98s years, sad but the tag dont lie. nor the look of it.
6: worse yet, the photo presented is a useless stock photo (random) run. (or demand real photos of front, rear and tag data)
the heads are getting rare (less work now) and prices are crazy. due to rarity.
Too bad the RPO tag is wrecked, no matter...
btw vast numbers of 2wd were converted to 4wd
with (front axle put there, transfer case and the 4wd trans adapter, front prop shaft , and mounts)
its and easy job, no magic computers, no electric(or vacuum opr) front axles, no motor drive transfer-cases to mess with, just simple , mechanics. (cept that 1 tricky weld up front left, frame rail) sure a donor car is needed, usually a wreck or Rust out.
5.12:1 is correct match to 5speed, and 4wd, both axles will be 5.12 (must)
you are correct just a good internal meter will be great. (mph) no parts missing and 92/93 dates
