Nice project mate

Going to surprise a few people

frankyboy · 17-01-2010, 10:15 PM

That is bonkers mate

I only live a stone throw away in Bacton so if i see that coming in my rear view mirror i think i'll just stick the left indicator on and let yer past lol

I knew a lad who had a Mini with a Metro turbo engine in that was bad enough but this will be an animal.

clairendave · 18-01-2010, 06:49 PM

Mine's got 87 whp and weighs just over 400 kg. its scary enough.
this is going to be insane. hats off to you fella nice work

erjones · 18-01-2010, 08:23 PM

waiting for the recon gearbox to come back should be this week, then its the engine, got a price on a full recon with t34 greens etc should be running 350bhp which was 50bhp more than i was wanting at the start, but wont need to up the power at a later date now

got to get saving now need money money money

Minirotty · 29-01-2010, 04:35 PM

Love it! was also going to take on a mini project again this year with my mate Sam, had all the bits to.

2.2 V-tec from prelude we had and a mini we had stored but mate of mine asked if he could have the mini so gave it him.

Good job realy as we've got the bloody escorts to finish but defo gona do another mini after seeing inspiration like this.

good to hear a fellow mini lover. they are doing all sorts will minis nowadays bike engines, vauxhalls , and vtec which seems to be the engine of choice for most. havent seen many cosworths though which i why i started mine, its good to be different.
before i started mine i was toying with using the honda s2000 engine and gearbox its got a six speed box and 250bhp standard but the bloke in the scapy wanted to much for the donnar car, glad i didnt now.

Minirotty · 29-01-2010, 08:43 PM

I think every one loves a mini mate, I grew up on an A-series lol

Clubman's my fave though

yeh agree with doing something new and the V-tec is widely used but no one from what we could find had fitted a 2.2 V-tec as they said it was to big lol we were gona mate it to a 1.6 box, imagine the ratio

will defo do another one day though, look forward to getting a chance at seeing this in the metal

scarnny · 27-02-2010, 08:43 PM

hi there everyone. have been doing little bits on the car but nothing like i wanted to get done time a bit sparse at the mo.
all the little bits add up though. fitted the diff and drive shafts plumbed brakes in and just waiting to bleed them up, will be Saturday hopefully.
added a few trick bits to the brakes a bias gauge a line lock an a bias valve to adjust the back brakes for track / road.
also made up a handbrake cable out of two sierra cables.

master cylinders pipe work in engine bay.

more pipe work

front strut setup

line lock nice and close at hand.

bias valve just for the back brakes.

drive shaft in place ready to rumble.

you dont often see one of these under a mini.

not much room under the wheel for the caliper.

more updates next week me hopes

Drizz · 27-02-2010, 09:48 PM
