Are you just looking for OEM pistons or specialty replacements?

If you want something other then stock for your rebuild SammyPro is a good guy to talk to, otherwise you can get stock OEM replacements from Hawk Suzuki Parts.

ART is Short for ART METAL MFG. CO., LTD. of Japan and they make Pistons for all the Auto makers in Japan except Nissan and Honda, they even have Daimler (Mercedes) and Mercury Marine Motors.

Now Ii Have 2 ART Flat top Pistons I got locally and I am looking for 2 more to round off the set. But for The life of me I Can't find a supplier who has then for the g13BA engine. I finding them for motor cycles, outboard engines, for ATV's but for my poor old sammi no dice. Oh well just go back OEM I guess;(

I just didn't know if they made the stock pistons for the Samurai or if you were looking for a specific aftermarket set of pistons.

Try giving Hawk Suzuki a call, if it's for Suzuki they either have it or can tell you where to get it.

Low Range Off Road carries flat topped high compression pistons for the Samurai - I have no idea who makes them - but I put a set in my Swift about two years or so back and have been quite happy so far.
