Mk1 golf Hayabusa engine conversion :?

Hi wondered if anyone could shed some light on this. i was just browsing through Golf+ magazine and spotted a mk1 golf that has had a suzuki hayabusa engine     fitted instead of a normal engine. the name of the company (H.R.Engineering) was printed on the car but i am unable to find anything else about it such as, if you can buy it in a kit form ect.
i would be greatful if anyone could help me if they know anything

I was talking to the car owner at Autosport, which is where that picture came from. It wasn't finished at the time. I sat in it too. The car has a de-dion rear end. It's a mobile advert for the company which does fabrication. It started life as a diesel van. The doors were the best bit. Full carbon fibre and capable of taking all the genuine parts, locks, windows etc. They weighed next to nothing and cost ?1k/pair. The companies no. is
01799 599188. Here's some piccies.

thats awesome, should be quick when its finished!

wow   i am liking that, thanks alot. may have to get me one of those  :clap:  

They would be a very fun car to have for the weekend!

Got overtaken by a WestField with what could only be a bike engine running it and it was very, VERY fast.

of all the mega buck cars at autosport i spent the most time looking at this motor. very well executed and will be a blast with 350bhp of turbo hayabusa pushing it along and rwd, what more could you ask for?

Awesome - I LOVE stuff like this!

If I ever win the lottery, I will build a rear drive Mk1 with something special up front!

Check out the linkages in the engine bay for the sequential shift!
I dont like the driveshaft running inside the car though. I'm sure the engine could have been mounted lower in the bay to overcome that problem…
I guess the gold bit of kit is a transfer box which allows reverse to be engaged with the stubby lever. Perhaps that needed to be inside the car?!?!

these guys have some quality cars. bet they'd do a mk1 golf no probs

Hi,if you really want a motorbike engine in your car,transplant a trabant engine in to it  8O
