To find many options for performance modifications try checking the sponsor directory.
Once you click on it in the main menu area you will see various sponsors- many of which will display, explain or sell upgrades for the exhaust, or suspension.

There are many options based on performance characteristics, looks and price. Try searching for topics using the search option. Many discussions about exhausts and suspension upgrades are archived from the past.

Also you need to mention which model cooper you are asking about.
The base cooper in manual or CVT or the Cooper S?

For small screws you might try tirerack.com ask for Alex or email him.

I'm not so sure about using those old wheels of yours- you need to check that the offset on the wheels are correct to use on the cooper.

Re: springs and shocks

This site works pretty well as an archived resource that you can search for information. Look around a bit. You generally won't get too much a response if it's clear that you're just tossing out questions without making much effort to find the answers yourself first.

From: then, near chitown, now- tempe
well, i would recommend koni yellows with h&r springs. i had those on my corrado (koini yellows with h&r race springs) and loved it. will do it agian with th mini. that is assuming you want to replace your shocks as well, and not spend a bunch of cash on coilovers. the koni's give you dampening adjustablility. wich is great if you want to soften it for a date or cruising and firm it up for those track days or just becasue you like it stiff.
on a side note, if i replace my springs will i need new shcoks? what are the specs on the shocks for the sprot package? thanx
