Thanks mate. Can't wait to get the BC's now. I am also toying between the whiteline and Pure Motorsport ARB. The whiteline looks on a lot of pics like a rusty pole yet the pure one looks a lot better made and more durable. Just unsure what effect the Pure Motorsport one has compared to the...
Thanks mate, really appreciate the comments. Just need to sort the ride height out now with some BC coilovers, full OEM bushes refresh, and whiteline RARB. They should go nicely with the bumpsteer correction hubs I have here waiting :smile:
Just come back from a quick Sunday morning blast. God I love this thing!!! Sold the Beemer today so will be buying some nice suspension goodies for it in the next few weeks. Will be at FCS on Sat on the stand so please come say hi as it will be good to put names/faces to avatars
Interesting reading a lot of the responses on here as quite a few ring very true. Had my cup 9 years and it's been turbo'd about 3 of those. Yes it's had its issues but the thing is just plain ridiculous fun. Hilarious power but still useable. Just the right amount for the chassis (235bhp)...
A place in Rubery not far from where I live. Called Russell's. Guy does a lot of classic mini stuff and it's an aladdins cave of materials in there. Really nice guy. I'll PM you his details if your interested. I had to get the Renaultsport stitching logo done elsewhere though as he doesn't...
Course I don't mind mate. £550 I paid. Guy is a legend and has done my rear cover and gear gaiter too.
Seats are ridiculous given the price. A little flex in them but they are Mega comfy on long journeys.
Few bits have come today so thought I'd post up. Retrimmed boot carpet and new leather gear gaiter to match the seats. Have put some anodised washer holes in so I can put a bootnet in:
Have also sprayed the bolts and bootnet hooks in mondial blue so just need to wait till morning to fit...
Absolutely love that interior mate. Exactly the same spec as I'm going for the my cup. Let me know what netting your going for with the rear bar as I'm after some myself
If I had a 200 that's exactly what I'd do to it.
That jamiefyd guy is a bit of a clown. Always pulls same face when any car accelerates. I'd bet he'd make that same wailing noice testing a 1.0ltr micra. A45 looks nice, I expect goes like hell. It costs a kings ransom, engine lacks character and is a bit chip shop owner done good for me. If...
Had to make a custom bracket with spacers. Belt fits nice and tight with no issues:
Might need to increase the spacer a little bit on the drivers side.
