This kit is ideal for anyone wanting to carry out the popular bike carb modification on a kit car or restomod type project. Bike carbs offer excellent performance, reliability and fuel economy when compared to the weber alternatives. These conversions are very popular in both modified and kit car circles and provide a low cost, simple power upgrade not to mention a fantastic soundtrack!

All danST supplied carburettors undergo a comprehensive inspection, strip, ultrasonic clean and rebuild process as required. Every set of carburettors are run on our dedicated test rig to ensure smooth idle and transition to higher RPM (see our youtube channel for running examples). We provide the carbs with base settings (and necessary jets) to allow you to get your engine up and running/driving. However these settings are only approximate and it is therefore essential that the carb jetting is set up by a competent engineer/mechanic using the necessary wide band AFR equipment (ideally on a rolling road) to avoid engine damage.

Carburettors will be one of the following models (stock dependent):

R6

ZX6R

YZF600

ZZR600

All of the above are 37mm diameter carbs and will support power levels over 190bhp and are ideal for an 1800/2000cc engine in high levels of tune. This size of carburettor will support a high revving race spec engine intended for track and race use. Exact model of carbs used is dependent on our stock levels, please use the contact form to enquire or request a a quote.

The manifold is manufactured from high quality aluminium with a precision Water Jet cut 10mm thick flange and TIG welded 45mm (Outside Dia) runners with a 3mm thick wall. All internal joints are fully ported/ground to ensure a smooth flow.

Custom HT leads will be required to carry out this conversion and are NOT included in this kit.

The ME100 is the latest ignition control system from Motorsport Electronics and available from us here at danST Engineering. 

This ECU is ideal for use with our popular bike carburettor kits as an alternative to the NODIZ Pro -especially in applications where full VVT control is required.
Designed for fully sequential control of four cylinder engines, it is a feature packed ECU offering all of the features of the highly successful ME221 Fuel Injection ECU (but without fueling control), in a compact, reliable and affordable form factor. Supplied with a fully terminated ST170 loom this ECU is unbeatable value for money for anyone looking for full VVT control and ignition management all in one box! Added to this we can offer an upgrade to full ME221 spec at a later date should you wish to upgrade to fuel injection.

The ME100 uses the same MEITE tuning environment as the ME221 and thus offers features such as Closed Loop Boost & VVT as well as Windowed DSP Knock Control, through to core features such as programmable inputs, custom tuneable sensor tables and full 3D mapping.

Pipercross are a leading brand of competition spec air filter and we are proud to use them in our kits. Wether it is competition or regular road use these robust filters will keep the dirt and dust at bay and ensure that your engine does not ingest any unwanted debris.
