Ta, couldnt figure out how to get them up! I have more will upload soon.

[davepoth]

Personally I would have left the stickers on.

[Crease]

that looks nuts! fair play!

[Pete102]

Christ that thing will fly.

I heard the other day there's a company local to me fitting Kawasaki 1100 engines to Smart cars.

[Simes205]

This is full of win.
Running it on any management??
Any videos??

[Chris Peacock]

Yea its running, if i can work out how to get a vid up i'll post one up. It weighs sod all and pops ok, the cooling system is a hybrid of zzr and carry van, ive fitted the cooling fan on a seperate switch so it stays cool.

That is crazy! Is that the finished ride height in the last picture? Looks like a fairly big wheel to arch gap. The side exit exhausts are ace too.

At the mo it is, i cant seem to find lowered coil and strut kits for carry vans?? Hmmmm might have to match a set from a similar sized car or fit coilovers. At the mo its a wee bit bouncy and theres a chance it will tip over.

How is drive transmitted?
Personally I would have kept the stickers and put a modest exhaust on. You lose some of the sleeper element with a shiney exhaust.

What does it weigh?

[GetSerious]

That's bloody fantastic

It would be all the more amusing with the standard wheels and an ordinary looking exhaust, but's still ace nonetheless.

Yea i liked the stickers but they were from the previous owners buisness so they had to go, esp with the phone number!
i'm hoping people will just think ive got a sense of humour or a chav tt when they see the exhaust, the carbs are jetted for these so its the best for performance.
The drive is transmitted through a custom propshaft mounted onto a bike engined flange, which is fitted where the front sprocket used to be.
The van weighed roughly 800kg standard i recon ive shed 200kg from it, so 170bhp 600kg. must be over 250bhp-ton?

The standard wheels had 145x13 tyres they would just spin.
