Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?
On the weekend I saw a Toyota Sera - little factory gullwing door right hand drive car. I searched on it and found a dealer in Vancouver that imports small odd Japanese cars and trucks. One of the cars they have for sale is a Honda Beat. Never seen one of those before either - can't help but wonder if a b-series swap would be doable?

Re: Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?
I seriously doubt it. Only honda engine that's gonna fit in there would be a CBR

Re: Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?
You could always turbo it, nig nog!
|
Re: Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?
thats bad as hell
|
Re: Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?
I wonder if the local jap engine importer could get one, with the sleazy AL --> FL title scam. Given how rare parts would be, I wouldn't be driving it a whole lot or anything...

Re: Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?
put a cbr1000rr engine in it.

I almost dont think white people could fit in it. But it looks sweet. http://yellowbeat.no-blog.jp/photos/...D%E6%9C%9F.JPG |
Re: Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?
Being 6'1" I'd never fit in that thing but it sure looks cool.

Re: Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?

Re: Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?
Badass, I never new here was a Beat importer. I'd rock one. Mazda makes a wierd ass car similar to the beat, i cant remember the name of it and I dont feel like searching for it. Its similar size, I want to say its got a 3 cyl, and its MR. Would be baddass with a 20b, regardless how impossible the swap most likely is. Its called the AZ-6 or some ---- like that-I'm prolly way off. Its ugly but cool looking
|
Re: Honda Beat? - 2 seater convertible?
OH ---- THEY HAVE IT ON THAT SITE!!!! AZ-1 sorry, but its there on that site in hte first post. Its a bad ass little car.

All the funky not-so-legit titles come from AL (?) and some states are wierd about taking titles for odd cars from them. FL is not so picky, but since there are laws in place preventing the easy generation of flaky/odd titles other states allow transfers from FL. My friend's Skyline title was done this way... it's not the tru 100% legal $100K Motorex type deal, but it probably won't ever come back on him. |
