Welcome, nice car!

Great looking R53 and you are fortunate to live near a few of the greatest of California drives...Hwy 33 over the mountains, the canyons of Malibu..roads just made for the Mini.

What are the Dinan mods to the car? I like the driving lights too, been wanting to do that to mine.

Enjoy!

Thank you. Dinan upgrades include exhaust, CPU remap, Air Intake and strut brace. Your right, I have some great roads to terrorize right in my back yard and am looking forward to getting after it.

If that Dinan Mobile doesn't have a smaller supercharger pulley on it, you've just scratched the surface. If you like the car now, wait until you have a pulley on it!
