Default GXR1000 XB (SARTUKI)/Possibly my next project(saving now!!!)

So If it can be done on a smart car I ask myself whynot in an XB?
So I have contacted this company and I am waiting on a reply.
If anyone knows of a company doing this stateside please hit me up.



Check out the site: http://www.smartuki.com/
or you tube smart car gxr1000 there are some pretty tight ones.

I am awair that it would require quite a bit of work but I am sure it is doable there is so much room back there. I'm getting goose bumps just thinking about it.

The XB only weighs 400lb more than the smart car and the width for this mod is only six inchs more narrow than our wheel base...

Below is a pasted copy of some info on that site:


If that is not enough, the Suzuki GSXR is one of the worlds most popular tuned motorbikes. There is a huge catalogue of performance tuning parts available for anyone that needs that little bit more. Conventional tuning with ignition, cams, fuel injection mapping etc can increase the horsepower to over 190 BHP. Add a Turbo and or Nitrous (N20) kit and 300+ BHP is a realistic possibility. We are planning to build a nitrous enhanced Smart Roadster Coupe in the future and we’ll take it to the drag strip to show it off. Watch out for the video soon.

Rear whell. It looks like you could still have a back seat maybe have to mod it a bit This would be of course a long way down the road...

The GSXR 1300 Hyabusa engine, with turbo! Seen a sandrail with that setup at the dunes, frickin' screamed! Some of those Smart cars on Youtube are running the 1300cc
