Guys need help. Had to replace the bolt on the back of the diff that holds the manifold downpipe, can't seem to find a replacement online. Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Dunlop R7's, has anyone got them on their Mini? Any reviews? My Cooper is being built as a 60's racer, so wanting the period look tyres.

    R7's look great and grip very well but they don't have a very deep tread to start with and don't last long if you drive enthusiastically. The Yokohama A032 lasts better than the R7 and is a better tyre than the 008.

    See if you can still order tickets online. It's more expensive at the gate. :)

Guys, just bought this Rev Counter http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/281651506273 to retro fit to my MPi (converting to Smiths clocks) my question is... do these need to be wired up the same way the MPi clocks are wired?
