1992 Mini Cooper, with 1300cc Hyabusa engine in REAR, tuned to 250 bhp and 230 ft/lbs of torque.
This is a winter project, which I want finished by early springtime.
If I have the radiator, oil cooler, battery, fluid reservoirs and other bits and pieces in the front, the engine can drive the REAR wheels from the back.
700kgs estiamted and 250 bhp? It will be some MINI 
]I,m assisting with a ZX9R engined kit car atm mate.Was gonna Busa it but the lad who,s build it is is moving house and ended up selling the Busa engine to get some capital together[
]Vanished………..like a wrinkly ninja
I was talking to them (Z cars) at the Kit car show and they look to be a very well designed and put together product. They also had a GSXR1000 powered Smart car!!
Donut – I mean DONATE!
Fantastic project! Have a picture of a twin engined Tiger which is motivating me to get my hands dirty again. Love the fact you can change gear separately on the engines! Built a Lotus 7 replica a few years back, loved every minute of it. Actually, that’s not true but a few grazed knuckles were worth the eventual outcome. It didn’t have a bike engine, projects like that just weren’t around then.
The Mini project will certainly turn a few heads, especially at traffic lights [
]ZX9R project sounds good too, any probs with the engine placement/angles and oil supply? Would like to see some pictures of both projects if poss.
