Would be fun at the lights. Theres a couple cars like this though the Clio TT is another one like this tuned TT engine in a stripped out clio.

 

And theres a smart car in another country that was put on the net with a Hyabusa turbo engine beating a Ferrari F430 down the quarter.

Wouldnt be that much can pick up a pulsar for £2000 and a micra for a couple hundred swap engines over. Or if you know of one thats been wrote off can probably pick the engine up for a few hundred. Wouldnt be that expensive and it'd be good fun.

got the tools and know what i'mm doing but still would not take on a job like that. 4wd, prop shaft, harness change, space for transfer box, moding subframe and gear links. weilding in all those plates to stop body twisting, altering hubs to take pulsar driveshafts and then you have a very small hole to fit a very large engine, intercooler and bigger radiator. then on top of all that you have to do things to make it stop and corner. far from easy if you ask me.

No 4wd running gear and they probably didnt strengthen the chassis etc up much if at all. If its only for going down the 1/1 they would hav elikely just dumped it in as easily as they could.

yeah thats what i would have thought. if i had tonnes of money to spare i might do it as its not going to be cheap to make it a fast 'driveable' car. but then again if i had money to spare i would just buy something fast in the first place
