Why don't you get some extractors for a 1300?? They are available, although I'd avoid the lukey brand - the flange doesn't line up with the ports very well.
I bought some lukey ones, and apart from the flange, they gave me 1600 ones which didn't fit as they hit the engine mount.
I know coby 1600 16V ones will fit a sami with a 1600 16V in it.

There are three brands I know of for zuks: Coby, Genie, and Lukey.
I don't think coby make them for the 1300 / Samurai, but their 1600 16V ones look pretty good.
Apparently the Genie ones are also very good, and they do make 1300 ones.
Prices I've seen range from $200 - $300

I have a 97 too
Lukey are crap, I got some and a full 2" exhaust off Lester. After I cut the flange off cut a new one and welded it back on to make it line up, I wraped the exhaust and fitted it under my zuk. The only power gain was in my mind

And it cost me around $400 plus exhaust wrap and my time. Fittting was free

(done by a mate in the exhaust game). Oh and lester had already cut and welded the extractors to fit the coil setup, as NONE fit off the shelf
After all that it really made no noticable difference, basically it's a waste of time I even gave it a birthday with a new K&N at the same time.
I have just finished a 1600 16v conversion and it's really nice now

I got some coby 1600 ones for my new engine and they are really nice

They fit stright in, it's a bit tight but they do work. I would say if you used these on a 1300 they would hang bellow the chassis rail (which is BAD).
The engine conversion excluding exhaust cost me less than the exhaust for the 1300 and it's about a 50% power and economy gain. Keep an eye out for the 1600 you won't regret it... you will with an exhaust on the stock donk.
