Looking through all the mini magazines and mini worlds this morning trying to find the article when they showed you where to strengthen and where material can be taken out for the front subframe but I'm struggling to find it.

Can anyone tell me which magazine it was in and when? I have it, just don't know where...

It's like looking for a needle in a haystack

Mad mk1, I now you have lots of other nice bits on the frame, but do you know how much weight you saved, from the sub frame alone?
