Swapping Hayabusa motorcycle engines into small, lightweight cars is one way to turn the fun dial up to 11.
It's a shame, you might say, that Suzuki never made a Hayabusa-powered sports car straight from the factory. Well, they actually kind of did.
Meet the Suzuki GSX-R/4, a one-off concept that debuted back in 2001. Power comes from Suzuki's own GSX-1300R.
Said to weigh …
Building a Formula 1,2,3-ish style chassis for one of these motors right now. Why more people haven't used this motor in home build projects, I will never know.
Concept is cool. Execution is fugly.
Am I the only guy that thinks it looks like a race car bed?

You were, now you are not.
Like the wheels. Execution otherwise not very nice to look at.

Not having reverse is a bit of a boner killer.
Are sure Audi didn't build this? It looks like a TT without a windshield.
I love it in GT6...and I for one, don't find it that ugly.

From looking at the picture hard to tell which is the front and which is the back. Only way to tell is from the head rest/airfoils.
On a 1-10. Maybe a 2 in the looks department? And that is only because experience has taught me that just when you think it can not get any worse it does.
I like it in a cyberpunk dystopian future kinda way.
......... and of course Radical saw the goodness of the Suzuki 1300, crafted its own sump / crankshaft, and made a compact hi-revving V8 from marrying tw0 I4s together. KS
