How does that rear suspension setup work?

Cheers matey and the rear suspension and beam have gone now to make way for Independent suspension and rear diff :) though its time to reveal the minis having awd conversion done :)

Im planning on round nose front not sure it will fit in standard length as James fawcett's mini looks very very close and turbo pokes out of front, also the frame I need for AWD requires extended front so guess that's the way I'm going :) thanks for your comment matey

But the extended round nose fronts look awful!

Either way, it's your car, your choice

The problem I'm going to be facing is Space lol unless I can work out how to mount the engine further back (so lots of bulkhead mods) then I guess it will just simply not fit and turbo/ manifold will be sticking out of the front I'm wanting to keep the outside as standard as possible with a few practical things like wide wheels / arches and a huge turbo sticking out of front unfortunately isn't my cup of tea. I really want it to fit under standard length I just need to get the frame then work out what needs modifying for front to fit

Wow, I have been out of the mini scene for a couple of months now due to starting Uni so ive missed all of this. You have defiantly made progress. I can't wait to get back on with building the 1275 engine you sold me. It's a 1310 now :)
Did you say you did the spraying yourself with the purple ?
