That car would be an absolute blast, and a rocket as well. With that engine and the 1400 lb curb weight stock, and I'm assuming they lightened it as much as they could, makes this thing insane with a Hayabusa engine in it. Even unmodified it's probably doubling power, and I'm assuming this one got a little massaging done to the engine. I wish I had this! I also wish I had about 90 other cars but a man can dream!
So great !!
Engine : Hayabusa
+
CarBody : Suzuki Cappuccino
this is exactly what I was looking for I knew with the right set up this would be a match made in heaven sounds like a a turboed inline already race ready motor with higher potential and a super light car passing dream cars
What a weapon !!! They should have full conversion kits available, id buy one for mine instantly!!!
Yup.. this turned out as expected 😳 fucking madness!
Amazing, I would so love this Cappo. Good work Wayne.
In this video the car had a spring-loaded shift rod in the upshift direction so that pulling the lever back pre-loaded it for a super-fast upshift when the flatshift switch was contacted. This put a ground on one of the Suzuki ecu pins to trigger the cut and thus the shift. The car now has a self developed paddle-shift system. There is a servo that 'pokes' the throttle open a few mm for the blip to allow clutchless down shifting. Now that the cut and blip time etc are set the system never misses
This thing sounds amazing.
Great driving too.
Go on Wayne! Love the noise and gear shiffting.
Oh god this is awesome. Those down shifts sound gorgeous! :o Big thins up to you, sir!
Good to see this thing up and running, I thought it might be a bit of a handful but looks really well setup!
I can see the cars this little thing is passing. It's a beast out there!
It does now have a paddle shift. If you watch the Brands Hatch races you'll see it working. According to the race report, I 'obliterated' the lap record that weekend. :-)
Indeed. The race marshals and spectators seem to love it too. It's 'different', it's entertaining and it punches way over it's weight. :-)
holy crap, always wanted this car and only recently thought about busa in this.....would love to see more vids!
Oh. My. God. That thing is a monster!
Great work. I have always wondered if this pairing is possible. Thank you.
just a sick little car, wish I had this in North America.
@ronmann606
It's 580kg ready to race with extinguisher etc. The cage is very comprehensive though to add stiffness to the chassis.
wow thats awesome
Cool as hell!
@dixonpeter
It's very easy to drive, doesn't really have any vices. It goes where you point it, gets really good drive off the line and out of corners. I'm sure Craner would be flat but, given that the grass was very wet still, I didn't want to press on too hard and run off line and bend it, not after all the work it's had!
Like the one in the videos I posted last year (2012)....? The Snetterton 300 is a good one to see it working, I moved my camera soon after and you can't see the gearchanges in the later videos.
It's electric though, I bought the solenoid and made the rest.
:-)
The car is almost down to the minimum weight allowed now, so it's not such an issue any more. The paddles allow me to keep both hands on the wheel under braking, which makes it easier to keep pointing forwards...
Very nice!!
I no more videos.
More up-up!
Cheer.
The problem is roof height with a cage installed (assuming you want to keep the roof on). By the time you've got the cage itself, some bar padding, the required clearance gap to your helmet and the thickness of a helmet you're out of room. I am 5'9" and I look out just over the steering wheel. I couldn't actually see out over the original dash and when I first ran it with the stock steering wheel I was looking through it, not over it!
Hey mate, did you ever make a build thread? Would love to see all the custom stuff that has gone into this.
Far more impressive than people just bolting together stuff from a shelf
Hello!
Brilliant car!
Have you considered any type of pneumatic system for the gearbox?
Do you have a blog or build thread of the car? Really considering one as an option.
There's some more in-car race videos up now, and more to come....
@sambobex
What noise? I can't hear anything for the ringing in my ears......
Hey, I have outside footage of this car in one of my videos, I just noticed
What flat shift system are you using? How are the downshifts with the paddles? No clutch required at all I assume.
@TerryMMA85
I'm afraid there isn't room for a passengers seat in the car because the battery, extinguisher and dry sump tank are in the passenger's side, sorry.
Well done sir! I favor the 89-95 swift body. I love this car. In the states (for me) it started with a Geo Metro:( My parents bought new in '93. Then I found out the actual shite this creation can do by its maker, Suzuki. Skidpad of .98 G etc.... and traveled 1,820 (2929.01k) miles to buy my first '91 swift. I would like to build a "FrankenSwift" myself. What transmission was used for this project?
@sub5secs
Thanks
It'll be at Silverstone Britcar meeting on March 24th if you want to see it in the flesh...
how much horsepower does it got?
I want so badly... it looks like its possible to fit without too much modification to!
It wasn't such an easy install I'm afraid, but the results are worth the efforts I think.
Chipwizards Definately! I'd be interested in hearing more about the build if you've any documentation at all. What diff setup did you go for? Can certainly hear it whine at those high wheel speeds! :D.
why not fit a paddle shift?
@sootyferrari65 cool, post us a link would you please? I had a look through your videos and couldn't see it.
these rock. my ole man had a stock silver one a few years back, laughed my ass off.... at first. for a 660cc 3cylinder turbo,way way more power than expected. that an there god dam tiny.
We laughed at him too until he started winning...
can i have a go?
dude your a god at rev matching that thing. that car shifts in like .06 seconds how do you do it?
Just set your peddles up properly, so when breaking the ball of your foot below your big-toe is pressing the brake pedal and you use the little-toe side of your foot to blip the throttle. Setting the peddle heights is important and it only takes a few mm of adjustment for it not to be right.
If you look at my later in-car videos I've made and fitted a paddle shift system and that just uses a central-locking motor mounted on the throttle assembly to blip the throttle on downshifts. Once set up, it works great and only cost me £7.50! :-)
The hayabusa has a sequential gearbox therefore the engine is blipping the throttle automatically, it is essentially semi auto. Watch how he only ever pushes or pulls as opposed to a H pattern shifter.
+Frontality
It is sequential, of course, but the ECU only cuts the power on upshifts, triggered by a switch in the gear lever mechanism. On downshifts in this (quite old) video I am rev-matching by blipping the throttle with the side of my foot on the throttle while braking with the ball of my foot. It does have a spring-preloaded mechanism on upshifts so that the upshifts are faster and getting dog-to-dog isn't a problem like it can be with an un-sprung mechanism. As mentioned in my previous reply, it now has a fully-automatic paddleshift system that I made for it, that will upshift at pre-programmed engine speeds on it's own if you don't pull the paddle before the limiter. Downshifts are done in a similar manner, but it's brake pedal position and engine revs that activates the downshift if the paddle isn't pulled and the system is set in 'auto-downshift' mode. :-)
+andrea72h ah that makes more sense, very interested in this kind of setup since I am attempting something similar with an innocent spider 1100s. Pardon my ignorance. :)
フライホイールってどーなってるの？
@suzir
I don't WANT to sell it, no. You'd have to see the engineering in it and the component spec before making an offer I think. You probably wouldn't want to pay what I've spent on it.
Of course you can. Twenty-five grand and you can have a go for as long as you like..... :-)
You can watch it go for free if you come to the next track day....
rare as rocking horse poop too.
I have no idea,how to backward it.
How to backward what? The date? Americans do their dates month/day/year so 01/11/10 to them would be the 11th of January. On the 11th January here there would be snow rather than sunshine. :-)
@@Chipwizards i think he meant get the capp to go reverse
Oh, reverse gear?
It's incorporated in the rear differential. The input shaft goes into the final drive case, over the top differential and there are drop gears and a reverse gear behind the differential. The pinion shaft then goes forward to drive the crown wheel round. It's an 'Elite racing transmissions MX200' final drive. It allowed the packaging of the transmission, rear suspension and the whole exhaust system to be really neat.
Was that a radical sr3 that you past?
It was an SR3 but they were only doing demo laps in it. My car is not as quick as an SR3, it is similar to the Radical Pro-Sport1300 versions on laptimes.
Chipwizards geez dude. do you have a walk around video of your beast? id lime to see it is the reason.
MrCargod05
I don't but I was thinking about doing one when I get it back together after its 'winter improvements'. There's some TV coverage from last year here if you'd like to see it from the outside....
EURO SALOONS ANGLESEY RACE 1
Sweet!
There's a build thread on 'clubcappo.co.uk' forum....
Weight and complexity, probably.
@kungfumaster901
It can be yours, for a suitable fee....
Its a Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborginikiller :-)))))))
Turbocharge it! So sick. Looks like the worst part of these builds, the transmission, has been done right here.
He wanted to avoid forced induction, he said other people who use turbo busa engines eventually have an engine fail. It is being modified though.
