A few of you may know me from 16vminiclub - just joined here yesterday so thought I'd best mention my entry for the worlds slowest 16v mini conversion (in terms of how long its taken!) !! Started it in 2003 I think !!! Progress has been hampered the last 18 months though with starting a family !

Basic spec - 1980 clubman estate shell, honda B18C4 engine with throttle bodies and MegaSquirt ECU
Modified Rover 100 front subframe, MGTF rear subframe - gives disks all round, coilovers all round etc

Lots of pics of it on 16vmini club and Manchester Minis - but I'll put a few here to save trawling !

Hmm, its not really changed at all since then - another child came along, and a lot less spare time - then another dozen excuses !!
I will try and do some on it this year though - once I've done all the odd jobs on the wifes mini, rebuilt my other mini, rebuilt the engine in my megane and kicked the wife and kids out so I have more time !!!!!

You know you want one Matt - but what do you go for, you've had 1.6, 2.0 & 2.5(v6) vauxhall power - surely the next logical step is an LS2 from the monaro
