i know there for bikes lol and i would love to do that but how much does that roughly cost? and yeah i was thinking more to on the different side... :)

lol yeah it will be very veryy different and probs the only Glanza in the world to be powered by it? maybe im wrong though! and yeah i iwll hit 60 in first gear :) nah bikes aint my thing i prefer the planted feeling and comfort of a car :)

It would be shit in a Starlet, bike engines lack torque, fine for a lightweight kit car but no good in a full size car.

ahhh dam thats put a spanner in the works then :) never mind lol thanks for the opinions and input guys, i will just follow the TD04 route, im sure i wont be dissapointed :)

1.3 hayabusa engine has 200bhp

1.5 peaso engine is like around 90bhp

Would be a good idea in a old school mini not a starlet

HAHA thats one extreme way to save weight :) and could u imagine the rust :) and yeah i guess my idea is out the window then :) ill stick to the TD04 conversion:)

Hayabusa are used in kartram 7's and west feilds small little kit cars dont reckon it wud be great in a V ?

some people agree with a starlet being too heavy for a bike engine as said kit cars ect perfect

unless u spent so much money lightning it up frp spec ,,,,in the long run u best getn a 5e turbod :)

Right then lol that has settled this one once and for all :) it was only a silly thought that popped into my head soo its deffo gonna be TD04 and leave the car in the helpinf hands of Nick @ TD for a week :D im pretty certain im gonna be happy with the results ;)
