Ok, different topic. After these Saturday morning canyon runs I've realized I'm in need of two things: 1. harnesses & 2. proper suspension (ie. camber plates, etc.). Because I have the crazy stereo system to work around & have already "been there/done that" with an Autopower cage, I think I'm going to go the harness bar route since I'll never track the car. Has anyone ever seen this unit in-person: http://www.bkauto.com/mini/r1305.php. Also, what kind of harnesses could I run with this bar?

 

You could run any harness designed to work with a cage...

 

Correct. I knew that part though. I meant is there a particular setup like Sparco/Momo/etc. 4-point which anybody'd recommend? If you can post some links to that'd be sweet!

 

Well, I prefer sparco, but there are plenty of great brands depending on how much you want to spend.... Scrotch, which is the same harness as the sparco, just with a different label is a bit cheeper than sparco, but just as good.

 

Thanks bud!
Do know where I can find pictures of Mini's with an install setup like I'm looking for?

 

I haven't found any threads on it... its fairly straight foreward though....

 

Okey doke, I found what I'm looking for. I know Helix used to carry the Brey-Krause harness bar. Brad (& Dr.Steve), can you check into this item for me/us? Cost, etc.?

 

Just get an autopower bar... Its probably not much more expensive and looks great....

 

Steve & Brad,

I don't know what is up with the car. But now somtimes the driver door opens on one pull. Am I lossing my mind??? Did not have time to bring by today but is there someting I sould or should not be doing?

Oh ya I did not know how to post with out replying so sorry if this is not how it is done!!!!

Thanks
Tina

 

It sounds to me like your car doesn't have the autolocking on.....

 

If autolock is when the car automaticly locks when you get above I think it's 10 - 15 mph, then it is on. But I just got the door cable replaced last Wednesday and don't want someting to be wrong or find out that I am doing soething wrong.

Hmm... Are you removing the key from the ignition before you open the door? In that case, you only need one pull because the doors automaticly unlock....

 

on my '05 it does not seem to matter what the situation is it takes two pulls to open, key in or key out, unless I hit the unlock switch.

 

That means you haven't activated the autounlock feature....

 

Yep, mine's the same as your's Minichef.

 

So where in the heck are Brad and Steve today? Haven't seen them online? Hey Steve thought you might like to see this: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...2&postcount=20

They are at SEMA.

 

I did not know that it would do that, I will try it and see. Thanks For the help!

Thanks for telling me, I was going to go over there this afternoon. Do you know when they are getting back?

 

Saturday sometime.

 

I am buying Blakes M7 M-Wing. Now I need to get the STB and then I will be good because I need to save up for the drive and the stuff I am getting at AMVIV5

 

I'm going to take it off this afternoon...

 

Anytime

 

Yep, that was it! It only works every now and again, but at least I am not lossing my mind or doing something worng. I just never noticed that it did that since my door has been broken since I got the car, "that is until Steve fixed it last week"! Thanks again!
Tina

 

OK, question... Should I leave my car wingless or revert to the OEM wing?
