VFR 800 engine is cheating
A US customizer has transplanted a Honda VFR 800 engine into the Honda N600 microcar. The conversion recently won a tuner award.
S.tephen Mines is a Honda fan through and through. With a conversion based on the Honda N600 small car, he clinched victory in the Honda Super Tuner Legends Series. The Honda hybrid was awarded at the US tuning fair SEMA in Las Vegas.
The Honda N600 was the first Japanese car to be imported into the United States. Starting in 1970, the mini-style subcompact was offered at prices starting at $ 1,300. The N600 was so compact that it fit easily between the axles of most of the US cars offered at the time. The N600 was fired by a 599 cm³ air-cooled two-cylinder four-stroke engine, which could turn up to an incredible 9,000 tours and delivered a maximum output of 42 hp and 51 Nm. This means that the dwarf, which weighs just under 550 kilograms, reached 135 km / h.
With 115 PS over 200 km / h fast
Mines planned a different drive for its N600. It took him almost five years to implant the V4 engine from a 1998 VFR 800 and its original tank under the hood of the Honda. To drive the rear wheels, a cardan tunnel plus corresponding power transmission was drawn into the N600. The power climbed to a good 115 hp, the maximum torque to 75 Nm. And the maximum speed is now 12,000 / min. The top speed should now be well over 200 km / h.

A Mazda MX-5 (NA) was used as a parts dispenser for the chassis conversion to independent suspension and the four-disc brake system. 13-inch rims sit under the crisply widened wheel arches. The paddle on the steering wheel is used to shift. The VFR instruments were built into the dashboard. The front and rear aprons were taken from a ’67 Camaro and adapted. A Supertrapp exhaust system that peeks out from under the rear ensures the right sound.
