No, these are not "the exact same stuff." I bet Jan (and many other tuners) would be insulted if you put the Jesus head, tuning, etc. in the same category as the JCW stuff.
think of my post in the bigger picture. I meant, we are changing the same things, not that we are putting on the same parts. Jan recommends JCW injectors BTW. I own a Jesus head, GP IC, JCW airbox, 440cc injectors etc
sorry brutha, it's not the car as much as the majority of tool boxes and those in need of extension who seem to drive them. I'll never forget one of my first encounters in the MINI when it was SC only. This tool bag in a classic looks at me at a light and says "you're kidding right?" I didn't actually know what he was saying at first. So I said, " excuse me?" and he said it again... Well, the light changed while he was looking at me, so, I put out my hand and moved it to the right as in a "after you"... well the rest... uhhh...I'll just say, that joker was a sad sad panda

I admire a lot of the muscle cars and rice rockets I see on the road, but the attitude of many people who drive them is a turn-off. I couldn't see myself driving any of those and being lumped in with those "tool boxes" as you so affectionately refer to them.
something with a flathead please, be it a v8 or a 4 banger. I could go for a 49 Cadillac overhead valve tho, but it would have to be in a cut down model A coupe!
Sad to hear about the misfortune. I saw this Black Mini at Danny's shop a couple of times during modification upgrades of my own. It's a good looking R53. You should keep her in the family.
