really nice
but what kind of gas mileage would it get! WHO CARES

 

[Wolfman]

That is sweet, have thought about going down a similar path in the past, but the cost is prohibitive to say the least!

Supercharged?! Pfft! Whatever!
More importantly - Dirty headers!

400,000.00 THB = 13,218.77 USD ...yikes

I assume that you would have to really hang on when the throttle is cracked open. OMG! :rockon:

did you have a rough guesstimate as to how much something like that would cost here in Aus? :cheer:

I have been told that to do it properly, don't expect any chang out of somewhere near $15000 AU!

Thanks! I think...

And I thought turboing it would be expensive bahahahaha

A mate was crapping on about it "not being that expensive"

I'd rather put half a pool in the backyard at the moment for that kind of money God damn this heat!

Super charger would be cool as hell but not 15k cool as hell.

I'm not exactly married but if I proposed that sort of money on the bike... I'd sure as **** be divorced :Flip:

Yes, that's serious coin to make your bike harder to ride on anything other than a dragstrip!

My thoughts exactly. Why not just buy a ZX14 if you want power, keep the FZ6? I guess some people just have to be unique...these the same kind of people that will put $30,000 into an engine swap to make a Miata as fast as a Ferrari 430.

 

[yamihoe]

..how about keep the fz6 and supercharge the zx14?
300hp to the wheel?? :rockon:
and just put the 5.0l in a Miata like everybody else lol

Why not supercharge the fz, turbo the zx, and drop a ls7 in the miata.....

 

[yamihoe]

it takes quite a bit just to shoehorn a little 5.0 into a miata, and just as much to fit the ls engines into a 240sx or a 300zx, besides, Im not a huge GM fan lol (sorry nothing personal, but most cars i work on are GM)
BUT turbo busa would be sik and of course its practical for street use!!

you pay for it ill build as many fz6sc, zx14t, and banshee miatas that you guys want
