Has anyone ever fitted a DTM exhaust to their Mini? Any thoughts?

Yes. When I was young and didn't know better. Loud, obnoxious and power-sapping.

I got a DTM back box i might flag if you need one

Been struggling on what to get as I want a big sound change. A 1.75 maniflow is sensible but I'd want something more noticeable. Been drawn to the DTM because of the look to be honest.
Might be interested in a second hand one as I could sell it for the same price roughly so it's worth a try.
Is it just the back box you got? I'll need a link pipe and bracket also? Thanks.

Just keep your eyes open and pick the bits up bit by bit. Some ap 7.5" calipers went for 60 on the bay the other week

It's certainly something I like the idea of doing, but I dont want to 'mess up' my mini as right now it has it's original wheels and arches... (sportspack)
I have been considering the following routes:
keep it the same - original and doesn't look too bad from the right angles...
deepdish 13's to better fill sportspack arches
Keep current wheels and look at different arches that aren't as 'over the top' as the s...

You're not the only one! :) Got some deep dished 7x13s and I've also got some exactions that I'm considering getting made into 2 piece - can't make my mind up!

I'm looking for another daily car. A nice Sierra has popped up, but don't think it will be going cheap. :(

NOT SIGNED as I guarantee they will be future exemptions for driving tax exempt/historic cars, i.e. only to shows and not into towns centres etc.
if you really want free road tax, petition it to be scrapped and put on fuel duty instead.

no way! A 1991 Primera isn't a classic, nor is a 1991 E36 318i. Just encourages people to drive old bangers.

Spent nearly 3 hours drilling out the seized in screws just so I could remove the cracked/faded plastic arches.

Been there before haha, 453 drill bits later :P

I had to do that on mine a while back, the drill ended up slipping and going through the 1/4 panel as it turned out to be made of filler :D

it's not what I was expecting to be honest and have seriously gone off rivnuts.
One of my quarter panels is also full of filler (one of the reasons to removing the arch) but that's because the wheel arch/quarter panel seam has been pushed in creasing the quarter panel. I bodged it with filler a few years back and want to fix it properly, as it's bugged me ever since.
