Just bought these bits.



All I need is the metal bits in the middle and I'll be good to go... :-)

I'm thinking IRS, twin wishbone front with pushrod operated coilovers and something with a turbocharger. Maybe an R1 ? Under 500kg should be easily possible. It will definitely have 13" wheels :-)


Here's an example of a built car with an R1 engine

Mine will be longer wheelbase to better fit me.

'tis still old. 'tis moreso, still Ugly.

It's a bit nearer finished is all I'll say just now. A fellow ZX10 user on Locostbuilders has two of these engines in his car.

274bhp combined as standard. He's aiming, I think conservatively, for 200bhp out of each engine. He's currently buying turbochargers. How do you do a mad scientist grin on Usenet ?
