It's quite a big show. I think the tmf stand is 25+ Mini's this year!

Well its kind of bad when all I popped out for was a grease cartage for the grease gun and the only place I could buy one from was Halfords. would have been half the price at the independent that's now closed and the other motor factor doesn't even sell them as they are too old fashioned.

Get a Halfords trade card to soften the blow. Certainly helps! Used to use it almost every other month when I had my leaky engine!

Heat? Failing that, penetrating fluid, Tim and more heat/rapid cooling

I see, didn't know you were doing a turbo conversion on it :) That'll be awesome! I'd love a turbo A series, I would much prefer doing that over vtec and redtop swaps.
How's your RC truck coming along?

I know you're not an idiot, but I'd suggest you insure that thing. You can never predict what could happen, and you could lose the Mini with no financial compensation. :(

Mx5 are cool. Never driven one, been a passenger in one loads though
Aug 11 2015 06:49 AM

Tommyboy12

Yawn. The handling of the MX-5 is overrated. Its wallowly and provides little feedback in standard form. Theres got to be a reason so many people stick coilovers on them!

Accidentally left the front window open. The fumes set off the house fire alarm. Cat was not impressed...
