Hi All,
I am thinking about getting a ZX10R engine (2005) and I wanted to know if anyone else has one fitted. What are they like? Does the sump need modding
to stop oil surge or are they ok to just fit and use?
Any problems with the install or any other info would be great 
Cheers,
Omni
bigrich and chris mason are both using these engines iirc
zilspeed
has one in his car i think
zils is the oldschool version, not the new one. Unless he's had a recent upgrade!

big rich is using one to I think him and paul have the 06 engine though
and the 2005 and 2006 is the same engine... except the 2006 has a new paint job (black)... the 2007 is where it changed... slipper clutch etc...
oh yeah... i know where there's one for sale if you're interested...
IU'm trying to find out if the sump can be shortened safely without dry sumping... I'm trying to loose 75mm so that i can fit a flat
undertray the whole lengh of the car....

ade Im sure but could be wrong that the 06 engine was the one with the stonking power output ie over 180hp
06 with black paint,slipper clutch and 160+ rwhp on the bike.
so a more revised engine than the 05 rich that is what I was led to believe and a lot more power
Cheers for the info so far.
This is what I found about the 2005 ZX10R which was why I was interested:

"With Ram Air" will mean about 170 without, and unless the car is also going to be capable of 150+mph you won't get any significant ram air effect in the car. Still not bad by any means, but take ram air figures with a pinch of salt when thinking of them in a BEC install or when comparing against other non ram-air assisted engines.
from the same guy i bought mine off...
mine was for the full kit including us loom, rad fan, switchgear... in tank fuel pump / sender.. Tbodies .... all of it..
6000kms..
When i looked... this is what i found... from reading... their the same lump...

Further to this, does anyone have the specs for a K2 GSXR 1000? I am unable to find the details anywhere!
Does any one have one of these in their car? If so, what diff are you running and what is the 0 - 60 stats and top speed stats?
Cheers,
O

Omni all youve got to think about is that nearly all Bike Engine Cars will destroy any car you see on the road that doesnt cost 100 grand +
