Since our last update Søren Heyer from FUBAR Racing completed work on their second generation Smart Fortwo project. The car is no longer powered by the factory 0.8 L OM660 turbo diesel inline-three and five-speed semi-manual transmission. Instead there is a turbocharged Toyota 4A-GE inline-four and Toyota MR2 transmission with a Tilton twin-disc clutch and MR2 Turbo axles sitting in the back of the car. The project is currently at KK Autoteknik awaiting a dyno tune.

Very nice job. Good work not making it a hackjob like every other Smart engine swap!
I like that this isn’t another motorcycle engine swap. Bike engines are always so buzzy.
does this eliminate the piece of crap ignition immobilizer that MB puts on their SAM and ECM ? overkill anti thief system that doesn`t keep four guys from picking it up and caring it off. how much does it cost to do the swap ?
Hi where can I buy one already done
Hi Kevin. You could contact FUBAR Racing to see if they would sell you this one.
