Yep, certainly is but not a 1.3l 5 speed.
You'll need to find a Maruti 1.0 5 speed.
Quite rare I believe.

Or even rarer an imported Suzuki Santana SJ410.

You can convert a WT Maruti 4sp to a 5sp with a little work. They already have a 5sp main shaft. All you need is a 5th gear and collar etc from a 1.3 sierra, and then machine the back of the 1L extension housing out to accept a rear main shaft bearing from a 1.3 gearbox and voila!!

I speak from experience too! My 5sp sold shortly after this conversion for just shy of a grand :shock:
