Its funny that you mention that. I have been into suzuki swift gt for years and got my best freind into them. He is building a suzuki samurai with a busa motor and it will be chain driven still and with the sequential type shifter . He has a turbo metro convertible that runs 12s all day long.

COOL! I WANT TO TRY OFF-ROADING WITH SOMETHING LIKE THAT!!! and what do you mean by running 12s? is it 12K RPM?, I should've took that Samurai with no wheels that my neighbor wanted to give me, but I turned it down coz I'm "low on dough" for insurance... so he just sold it to a scrap yard for $450 ...BTW: I saw some cars at "Disney/MGM studios at Disney World" that has a bored to 1500cc Busa engine for their Operl Corsa and Speedster STUNT CARS.... I think its turboed with the (hiss) sound from it...

When someone says something is "running in the" or "running" 18's, 12's, 9's or whatever, they are referring to drag racing and the time it took the car to travel from a dead stop to the end of one quarter mile.

thats pretty fast for a Suzuki Swift... but not a Skyline or something with 270+HP and up to 3000lbs...
