Keyser Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Good afternoon everyone Ever since I became the proud owner of my Radica SR3 track toy I have been doing a search on eBay every week or so for - Hayabusa, Hayabusa Turbo or Hayabusa spares or repairs hoping that eventually I would find a deal that would make the option to add a turbo to her a realistic idea The other thing I had to bear in mind is I am seriously considering doing some hill climb and sprint events with the aid of my mentor in that department Andy James. Now Andy did point out that if I turbo my current engine a 1.5l then I would go up a class due to the turbo uplift but if I turbo a standard 1340cc Busa I would stay in the same group. Keeping all that in mind and add it to the fact that when I got the Radical it was not A1 (I couldn't afford it if it was ) I had planned to run her for a season or 2 and then a rebuild and probably a colour change. There is nothing badly wrong with her just needs some TLC and some tidying up. She has a few scratches and battle scars and the electrics are suffering both from various modifications over the years as well as some water damage. In my usual way I set about searching for parts I already have some spare wheels and a few other minor bits including the already fitted LED indicators. Anyway my eBay searches have paid off and the turbo dream is a little closer, earlier today I collected this little lot - The engine - originally designed for a Hayabusa drag bike aiming at 700HP has never been run just built ready. Engine Spec - SUZUKI HAYABUSA GEN 1 TURBO ENGINE TOTAL REBUILD USING ALL NEW PARTS - 1 INCH BILLET FLAT SUMP SWINGING OIL PICK UP AND ANTI SURGE BAFFLE BILLET UP RATED OIL PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE UP RATED OIL PUMP DRIVE GEAR BILLET OIL FILTER , WITH REMOVABLE INNER GAUZE BRAND NEW GEN 2 1340 CRANK SHAFT, LIGHTENED AND FULLY RACE BALANCED (BALANCE GEAR REMOVED) CARRILO CONRODS J E TURBO PISTONS (9.5:1) TOOL STEEL PINS BRAND NEW GEN 2 BIG END AND MAIN BEARINGS HEAVY DUTY CYLINDER STUDS AND NUTS HEAVY DUTY CRANKCASE STUDS AND NUTS RUNNING A 26 TOOTH FLYWHEEL APE HEAVY DUTY ROLLER CAM CHAIN CONVERSION WITH ADJUSTABLE CAM SPROCKETS CRANE TURBO CAM SHAFTS 60LB UP-RATED VALVE SPRINGS 1mm OVER SIZED STAINLESS STEEL INLET AND EXHAUST VALVES MANUAL CAM CHAIN TENSIONER CYLINDER HEAD PORTED AND FLOWED UP-RATED 5TH AND 6TH GEARS TOOL STEEL SHIFT SHAFTS HEAVY DUTY SHIFT STAR DETENT KOSMAN OUTRIGGER /BEARING SUPPORT POLISHED BILLET GENERATOR COVER 2 STAGE LOCK UP CLUTCH BILLET LOCK UP CLUTCH COVER BILLET STARTER GEAR COVER HIGH FLOW BREATHER COVER .

GARRETT ROLLER BEARING TURBO T04Z TWIN TIAL WASTE GATES 50MM TIAL DUMP VALVE BILLET PLENUM WITH INTER-COOLER BUILT IN This is not the turbo that was going on the engine (that was much bigger) this one is better for my application and should be better at the lower and mid-range rpm, theoretical max HP from the pair is around 600HP but I am aiming for a much more modest 350 - 400 which should give me somewhere in the region of 700BHP per ton in the finished car That should be errrr Lively So that's the teaser trailer you just need me to finish the new garage build and get Wasso's V8 Build palmed off on somebody and I'll be ready to start.

Mopedmark Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 If you had said I used to know a thing or two about Busas After more than 50 show wins she's retired to the living room 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopedmark Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Sean at Big CC is the man, if your stuck on anything he will have it in stock, if your motor is 1340 it's a facelift model 08 onwards, originals are 1298 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Sean at Big CC is the man, if your stuck on anything he will have it in stock, if your motor is 1340 it's a facelift model 08 onwards, originals are 1298 This is a bit of a cross breed - Gen 1 engine but with gen 2 1340 crank and fly, this is because the Gen 2 crank is both stronger and runs the 26 tooth fly wheel which makes it much better for timing with fuel injection against the 8 tooth Gen 1 flywheel Funny you should mention Sean as this engine was built by Malcolm you may know him as well, he has had quite a few bikes in Street Fighter etc and he used to work at Big CC Now runs his own bike shop down in Eastbourne 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 I'll watch your build instead then Funny you should say that as we are now in the same boat I got the engine as it came up now but it is already under a blanket in the storage locker I couldn't put it in my garage as Suzi is stuck in there Don't worry though as soon as the new garage is built if you haven't got bored and sold her Suzi has first dibs for work. Of course if your following my garage build you will be aware that due to a mains sewer crossing the back garden we have made absoultley no progerss for the last 2 weeks and nothing booked for this week so currently running a month behind Still hoping to get in there for the winter though and with my new heater I'll be happy to tinker on your build through the cold and wet season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy james Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 And there was me thinking a bit of fencing in the Back garden might keep you occupied while we were held up on the Zed Shed! .............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnH Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 This is not the turbo that was going on the engine (that was much bigger) this one is better for my application and should be better at the lower and mid-range rpm, theoretical max HP from the pair is around 600HP but I am aiming for a much more modest 350 - 400 which should give me somewhere in the region of 700BHP per ton in the finished car And I bet you still can't keep up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your thinking to many cars back - when we had a play at Bedford I was in the MNR - this is the Radical that Andy James struggles to stay ahead off and can't keep up with when it gets in front - that's the real reason I want a Turbo so I can pass him on the straights as well as the bends EDIT: Just thought about that - was it the MNR or the Radical I did the Vid of you in? To many cars and to many track days, On the last one (Radical) DarrenB and Ekona were there - Darren spun in the wet Edited August 18, 2015 by Keyser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
