erm i think its only carbs type that are used on car engines unless you are going to use the ecu and all the crank position sensors and various other sensors from the gsxr, which id be suprised if that would work. I dont think it would be a straight forward bolt on job with carbs either. Could be wrong though?

36 x 4 is 144mm thats a big carb if you look at it as a single carb. But if its going onto a 16v 1.4 k series i am sure they will be fine.
the ones in the link are off a 1100.
They will have to be dynojetted too.

link clicky

The carbs will need re-jetting to suit engine, otherwise it will all be a waist of time

i have a mate called pete bogg, and thats not a made up name
his father dave and brother steve run a garage up here called bogg brothers they have been messing with bike carbs on all sorts of engines for the last ten years or so
they fit them to all sorts of cars from novas to rover V 8s and chevvys
the results are staggering basically a bike carb works very much like an SU EXCEPT its a lot better made and very resposive i know they have fitted them to a mini as i saw one up there last year sometime it sounded great although i dont know what power it was giving
they are on 01944 738234 tell them i put you onto them im sure they will help
the carbs in the picture look like ZX9R kawasaki ones to me and are perfect for modding
