Hi all my first post really :D .

Having A Little Stressful Week As I Have Been Looking Round For A Subframe Kit For Mini As I Am Converting Her Into A 2.0l Redtop. Just A Little Confused About Which Supplier To Go For.

As Well As The Kits Im Not Sure What Else I Would Need To Get The Car Pretty Much Going. Im Planning On Getting A Donor Car For It So Other Than The Kit And Doner Car What Else Will I Need For Each Kit? Approx Prices Would Be Great Too :D

AMT
Build Pack 2 - £1,200 + carriage

Fully triangulated plastic coated subframe
Additional mounts for shock absorbers
Plastic coated engine mounts and gearbox mounts + rubbers
Near equal-length one-piece drive-shafts
Top rose-jointed arms (4)
Plastic coated sub-frame brace bars (2)
Rose-jointed aluminium strut brace
Rose-jointed aluminium shock absorber bracket bars
Nut and bolt kit

It States That I Will Also Need
Parts Required to Complete Installation

Vauxhall 2 litre 16V engine and F20 gearbox with CV joint (available from Calibra, Cavalier, Astra - AMT can advise on engine suppliers)
Dummy drive shaft and CV joint from Calibra/Cavalier
Gear selector linkage, rod and housing
2 Allegro 1750 outer CV joints
2 Mini rose-jointed bottom arms and tie bars
2 front coil over shock absorber

What Else And Where Else Could I Get These From?
