Inspired by a few motors Ive stumbled across this week and this beauty that was unveiled in another thread on here.

That blue mk1 was in one of the mags, was rwd with a Yamaha R1 engine, I think it did 0-60 in something like 5.0 secs most of the body was carbon.

It has a 350 bhp Hayabusa turbo engine  :wink:

Oh don't get me wrong, what's been done under the bonnet is friggin awesome..


''The Suzuki Hayabusa is one of the fastest things I have ever seen in motion. A friend riding his was in front of me once at a stop, and the road ahead of him was long, straight, and wide open. The only way to describe how it looked from my car was "Millenium Falcon makes the jump to hyperspace." And to think, his was only mildly tuned.
The 'Busa's 1300cc engine is strong enough to see duty in cars, too. The Westfield Megabusa immediately leaps to mind, and the German Car Blog has tipped us off to another example of Hayabusa-powered four-wheeled fun courtesy of the madmen at H.R. Engineering in Essex.
These guys have taken a Mk1 VW Golf, converted it to rear-wheel-drive, and dropped a turbocharged, 350-horsepower Hayabusa mill under the hood. It looks like a ton of fun, sounds completely evil, and its acceleration is, well... rather brisk, as you'll see in the pair of vids embedded after the jump.''



It still looks SH!T !!

One of those isn't a Golf...

The last one has given me ideas though... I'd love to see my wife's face when I pick her up in it... (or should I say attempt to pick her up...)
