Sounds insane. Got to love the sound of a Weber carb. We need a very long vid of you driving Pingu. :)

He does sound rather meaty can't wait to drive him. Still few bits to do and other half announced most probably not be going brands :,0(

Anyone notice how Mr Bean kept his Mini in pretty amazing condition? Not a spot of rust on it!

Happiness is spending time trying to troubleshoot on the mini and successfully solving the problems :)

What were you trying to fix? Mine were really really small problems compared to many mini problems :P

Have an SPI turned out to be faulty lambda, coolant temp and inlet air temp didnt help matters... mix that up with a faulty injector

Wow, those are quite a few problems sitting over one another. Glad you were able to get them sorted.

It's been off the road for a little while now. I was planning on a turbo conversion this year, but decided to hold off until the EDIS 4 ignition is sorted, and go from there really. It also needs a Maniflow 1.75'' side exit back box. I had a twin box with lbc, but now going single box with freeflow. Head will also be modified with bigger ports, maniflow twin su manifold, and getting the twin su carbs rebuilt soon. It also needs a new brake pipe across the front subframe ect.

I'll be asking my boss soon about the possibility using one of the company cars permanently. It will free up a lot of money and space. It would also mean I can use the mini for going the gym, shopping, car shows ECT, which would be my ideal situation. :/

Just back from minispeed sale, happy with the stuff I got but there was so much more there and easily could have spent a lot more!

Was it just 10%-20% off, or did they have some real bargains just to get rid of it all? :/

From what the wiring diagrams tell me, the srs is linked to the OBD port

Took wheel off today - the sensor ring had trapped part of the printed 'tape' inside, seems to be working okay so far

I have lenses that you can wear for up to 6 days continuous without removing them their comfortable too

May need to try these but then again, I could completely forget about those too. At least the daily ones get uncomfortable after so long which is a reminder to take them out...haha

I leave mine in for up to 2 weeks. They're licensed for up to 4 weeks. I just find they get a bit ropey if you don't take them out about twice a week.
