Update

Alright, so yesterday i started going threw all the extra parts i had for my mini and found a longer/better flowing intake manifold for my weber so i decided to throw it on. First problem i had was that there wasn't enough room between the dash panel and the engine for the carb/mani to fit. So i had to trim the panel a bit to make some room. After i had enough room i mounted the carb and new mani and started to build a box to separate the carb from the interior. I borrowed the sheet metal for the box from a old filing cabinet that i was gona throw away, but I'll be redoing it in aluminum along with a driver side gauge panel later on.

looks great. Great work.

I really need to get mine up and running right then go get it registered. Just been sat in my garage for the last 4 years since it was imported

[raffi91]

Thanks. Yours looks good too, looks just like one of the minis we used to have. Im guessing its a MK3 with a 998?

[sparkyvw]

correct. I wanted a mk2. Only got this to make money on it as it was really cheap back home but it over heats and i just havnt had the time to look at it. Thats what you get for having a great idea with a friend to make money and he doesnt listen to what you want.

i love old minis, i wish i could get my hands on a decent shape mk1 for cheap.

that video of the awd mini is amazing

Nice one, looks pretty solid for a MK1. What else have you done to it?

Stick with the 10's though, 13's will make it handle like a bus !

[Withers]

Aw man, Mk1s deserve 10" wheels, screw the 13's.

I never posted mine up because I know it will never be stanced.

What supplier are you using? Minisport?

[Mentosman42]

love it!

one day im gonna find a mkI in the states and put a VR in the back, always has been a fantasy of mine haha

[raffi91]

Yup, there are a few over here in the US, but Mini Sport has nicer parts with lower prices. Only trade off is the extra shipping cost, but still manages to be cheaper then the US suppliers .

Thats one hell of a fantasy.
