Hehehe this is one project I wouldn't mind exploring given the funds to do it.

First things first, the engine. :wub: :wub: :wub:

Powertec RPA V8, 2.6 litre, 320hp at 10,500rpm!

Best part is, it's small enough to fit into the SW20, or even ZZW30 I reckon. Comes with either an FR gearbox or transaxle gearbox (for FWD or MR).

FYI, the engine is basically 2 Busa engines siamesed together to share the same crank.
 
wow... cool shit..

anyway, what is the torque curve gonna be like? i understand that sportsbike engines cranks out very high BHP at the expense of torque (bikes are light)
will it be able to pull 1 tonner??

i guess we can always do with a very high final drive also.. again at the expense of topspeed..
oh well... guess we can't be too greedy

:)
