  hey mate i live in durham, wooo a member from my end of the woods haha , i had a similar plan when i had my cinq but sold her on befor i had a chance. You should still put it on the road mate they are fun as they are and just start planning the bike engine or do something like charlie , donald or j333evo (few people on here who have done brill jobs with cinqs) have a look in the cinq section . to do it you could do something like z cars do , space frame etc put z cars into you tube they have done lots of bike powered mini's . Also there is a canny bike breakers in stanley in co durham that you could source the engine etc from. get some pics up when you have a chance bud

hi,

thanks for the warm welcome,

hi stu,
atm i have a project that i want to finish off 1st(autocross tigra), then i`ll get down to the nitty gritty with the cinq. . .  i think the bike engine will look very well in the back of the cinq :D nt sure what i would have to do to put it on the road with a bike engine in the back. . . . . would be fun though :D ZCARS are amazing i am looking into making my own roll cage out of the propper racing cds steal. . .  just been looking everything up atm when i get a chance, you cant beat good research :D

has anyone done something simlar on here?

cheers dan

  along Dan.......... I CANT WAIT for you to do that..I've been wanting someone to make that move.. Bike engines in small cars are AWESOME.. Any idea what engine so is it far toooooooooo early to say?

a hyabusa engine would be awesome. I've seen one in a smart car.

I'd love one of those  that would freak out the local traffic coppers around our way  that is my mentality also  go down well with our  local super bike chapter

lets hope i come through with the idea and get it done then :D i have been thinking about using a honda blackbird CBR1100, my m8 has one sitting in his shed i could proble use for mark up :D

at the minute i am looking for a cds steal suppler.  .  .  .   as i am going to make the rollcage 1st.   :D

thanks dan

[fullpint]

CBR1100 will do fine 

[eltis]

has anyone put a redtop(vauxhall 2. 0 16 valve) in the rear of a cing?

[fullpint]

  but thats not a bike engine

[STU?]

go for the cbr1100 mate , there was a black sei with a redtop under the bonnet was fast but i'm sure when it came to corners  , that is in the front tho so would be better n the back.  i would personly go for the bike engine
