Great progress! Love this point, from here on in we get to see little pieces coming together, and with every update it gets you a bit more excited about whats more to come!

Is your KAD/SC engine steady finished? Can you not use the bracket because of clearance problems?

Those SPA mirrors looke lovely!

hi yeah, i love the little bits that make a big difference when they go on.

hopefully i will have it back on 4 wheels next month when i get back from my holiday, and i can spend a load of hard earned cash on it!

thats the SC steady covered in tape. lol. its only in to stop the engine flapping about atm. im using the origonal bracket as a template to cnc a nice new aluminium one when i get round to it, i can make it shorter as i dont need the holes for the mastercyinders as they have been relocated further back!

What a truly awesome build,well done mate.I feel inspired!
What sort of drill bits did you use to lighten your subframes?

[andywaller]

the small holes were a 13mm twist drill and the others where veriuos sized hole cutters, the bi metalic type with a center arbor.

Nice mini, i've just read all of this topic andi must say it's coming along nicely. Where did you get your MB split rims from. Would they fit a standard mini or do they need spacers etc. Yours are 10x7's aren't they? Do they run 165 tyres as i have 165/70/10 on my revolution alloys.
