No real major updates although the car is currently getting the harness mounts fitted and then all the bare metal is being treated and welds sealed. Then I'm getting the car back at the end of the month as a rolling vehicle to finish off myself.
It should be good but I still have quite abit of work ahead of me.

[kmol468]

Ive got it back now, so all I have to do is finish it off, where did I put my spanners??

[miniQ]

Nicely done :0

I seem to remember that the 4wd models were abit better, better head flow, better water galleries and abit more power. However this isnt really pertinent as the engine will be tuned to around 380bhp. I dont know it will be at the wheels as you have quite abit through transmission loss, but we will see once i get it all bolted up and mapped.

This is so that I dont suck up birds as I go along!

I love it, this is going to be one amazing mini once its done!
You do realise that once you've finished you are going to have a very long list of forum members wanting to be taken for a spin in it dont you? ( my name first on that list please )

[kmol468]

Well I dont mind, but I think friends who are now helping me with the project will come first!
And I do have to add that the seats are a tad on the narrow side... but if im at a show or the pod then I could oblige, maybe I could charge, it would help recoup some of the money ive spent on it!
