Yeah had my carbon bonnet on! A fist sized dent on the wing, broken arch and gashed tyre, had to swap to the spare about 5 mins before the start of the run.

I used a cable tie to secure my bandage, turns out that isn't what youre meant to do. I was going to use a jubilee clip...

I have a similar issue. My mini is in the garage but it is boxed in with loads of parts stripped off my Mondeo. I need to sell them so I have the space to work

The time has finally come to fit the engine, but struggling!! It is an auto to manual conversion with the auto subframe, has anyone got a thread already for this build??

You need to use the rubber mount from under the radiator from the auto engine as the hole spacing is different on the sub frame that side compared to a manual and between the engine mount and the clutch cover you will need to fit a 3/8" thick packer as an auto's sub frame is wider than a manuals

Probably should have mentioned, I have the conversion engine mounts... Does the above still stand?? Thanks for the reply
May 26 2014 07:26 AM -

If you have the conversion mounts then I assume not but I didn't use them when I did the conversion so I can't tell you. The only other thing you will need to do is connect the inhibitor wires together. The rest is the same as a manual. Just bolt the bits in place

There is a lovely yellow one on pistonheads at the moment! Been tempted with it myself.... until the mini ate all my money.
