Will make a good noise for sure. Might struggle a bit for torque but because it revs so high I'm sure it can be fixed with gearing. There are a couple of busa engined SJs on youtube.

Not enough torque and no low down power. Probably fine on road but i wouldn't fancy trying to drive slow and steady with it at 12000rpm.

I'd stick with a lower HP engine with more low down torque

As said would be awesome on road in a straight line, offroad however you would have to have really low gearing so you can thrash the shit out of it to get the torque.

If you want an engine swap just sling a G16 in there!

G16s are easy enough. As i found, unless you do a stupid mistake.

Or there is ladamans M15 thread now, bit more complicated. Lol.

It's not about how much power it puts out but where in the rev range that it hits peak power when it comes to an offroader, all these bike engines will hit peak power at very high rpms

SJ 1.3 and Vit 1.6 engines hit peak torque at 4000rpm
hayabussa engines hit peak torque at around 7000rpm
