Hello I been working in a R53

I got an 2003 mini cooper s manual as birthday gift, to have a project to work on; this is a short list of thing that I have been working on:
new clutch, timing chain, shocks and struts, ball joins, used power steering pump, and many little things.
The manufacturing date is 02/03 I like to know if the cv axle from a 2006 s manual will work, and all information that I can get for this project; where to buy parts, repair information ( I have the Haynes manual not enough )
I am in Toronto, On.

Welcome to NAM.

ModMini has allot of videos on Youtube about working on a Gen1. You can also get some good information in the Gen1 FAQ thread that I have below. On parts, you can check out the NAM Vendors but clicking on the link in my signature.

Good luck.
