That's different. I wonder how it runs? Busa motors are fast, but they reside in a 500 lb machine. I imagine the effects of their power lessen as more weight is added

 

im sure with some of the tweaks you could do he has it pushing over 200 HP. Still alot for an 1100 lb car.

MOst of the Piece of shit civics that think they are fast are around 3000 lbs with 115 horsepower and a goddamn fart pipe.

 

If you google Caterham Super 7 there is a video that looks like the same car. The guys seems to be having a great time. It's probably a rocket up to 100mph but I'll bet aerodynamics takes it's toll.

Suzuki makes Hayabusa powered race cars for a one make series. The power is upped a bit, though

Very nice, there is a local shop that sells replicas of thosefor 18k rolling chassis. They use a ford focus motor suped up to make 300+rwhp

It's still going to be insanely quick. It won't have a high top speed, but that's because of (lack of) horsepower and aerodynamics, though. Just think of it this way, you can rev it up and dump the clutch not having to worry about looping it or spinning the rear wheels (much). You could be very aggressive with that thing and still be 'safe'.

 

needs to be turbo'd....:cheers

Mine's pretty quick too! ... 0 to 60 = 3.48 secs.

Here's a video of a Smart car with a 'busa motor in it: http://www.youtube.com/v/sLtMh20qIp8&rel=1

Freaking looks fun as HELL! Dude can freaking STOPPIE it!

 

man i knew there was some fishy shit going on when i saw hybrids post. at least it was a decent thread.

 

I don't understand putting a 1 liter engine into a car. In car terms that's tiny. Either way though that's real sweet.

 

How many cars have you been in that rev to 13,000 rpm?

 

true, but i wonder how much that smart car (with original motor removed and replaced by a busa motor) weighs? I bet it's got most of the interior removed as well...

either way, watch the vid, clearly it is like 10 times as powerful as the a smart car...
