Purchased a new item yesterday... and another today.




Ive sen people use civic rads before as theyre good on space in the K-Frame.. so i thought rather than stick a stock part in, an alloy replacement would go nicely.

Hmmm, better phone up the insurance company again. see how much more it will be supercharged..


I think thats the plan now, 1600 Rather than 1800, but give it a little boost No real Room for a turbo. but plenty for a supercharger...

oh yeah and this stuff....

[Pie]

They need to be white

[millsminis]

Nah Dave you've made the right choice with black as they will go well with the Yellow!!!!

Shame that your old wheels are 13s.....

[mighty_mini]

Firstly, what the hell is up with tmf... its listing the replies rather than showing them properly.

Fitted the wellers today. Apart from needing new arches and the front calipers needed modifying... they fit fine..

Dave at the bottom of the main forum, it says; "standar, linear..." and something else. you need standard, keeps happenin to me every now and again.

As for the wheels, look nice, but i still think white would have looked better

Simon, you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. White and yellow? Pff... Everyone knows that all the best minis are black and yellow
