Very nice. What is the total weight of that beast???
Rear diff. 3,500 Busa' motor-3,000 Smart-Car-???? Countless hours of hard work-???? Blowing away a Corvette...priceless.  |

Re: Not a buggy, but my Busa powered project
Weight should be in the 1700 lb range
The drag racing calculators say 11.80 E.T. quarter mile time. I think it will make some Vette, Ferrari, Mustang owners look a little silly! |

Re: Not a buggy, but my Busa powered project
Fantastic work.
I totally appreciate the pic of the wire harness and all the labels. That's a few days of work just by itself getting it all figured out and set up.

Re: Not a buggy, but my Busa powered project
Hi again,
The car is a two seater with the engine behind the seats in the stock location. we started with a 2008 Smart Car with low mileage, we figured we would just sell the stock engine, they are worth quite a bit. The conversion's are going to run $17,500 plus a donor car K-fab, thanks, if it wasn't for this forum I would never have been able to figure out the wires! |

Very cool, my wife wants a Smart Car. She would know something was up if I told her I wanted one now too!!! LOL
