I live less than a mile from Broadbent Auto Spares and have dealt with them. Engines usually come bare. No alternator,starter,manifolds,etc. Sometimes they can't be bothered and you get absolutely everything ! You need to check as you will need manifolds,injection, etc if you go down this route.You will need ECU n airflow meter etc to be safe, but only about 4 pins need to be connected. Think Jimny ECU and loom is different.
I've fitted an Astra 1.7 turbo diesel. It was a lot of work and quite a challenge. Best O Luck.

Whilst on about the G13BB engine. I've heard about customisers in the USA fitting Suzuki Swift G13BB engines with turbo, intercooler, modified manifolds, 8 injectors and Nitro's injection. 200+Bhp ( and quite reliable. Now there would be a seriously fast Jimny !!!!! ( And probably a seriously empty bank account ? )

It is the Renault 1.5 Diesel engine.
Looking at the parts manual, the geabox/bell housing assemblies are completely different between the Diesel and Petrol models so its going to be difficult to join the two together.
