What the???? Is that for real? Talk about a stroker motor.

 

Yup, a dual plug 392ci Hemi. some guy up in New England

 

Insane comes to mind how often are they changing the tires on that Mini?

 

Most likely a trailer queen, but I would like see the 1/4 times? it must be rwd

 

That is someone with way to much money on their hands.Jim I wonder what he got for dyno numbers.

 

I dont know, but I bet Joe can beat it when he is finished

 

One has to ask are any of us ever really going to be finished? Once you do that first mod its a path that knows no end.

 

Well spoken Chief. I can honestly say for us mad modders - "there is no light at the end of the tunnel."

 

And CMS will have a job either putting the mod on or fixing someone elses job that was not done correctly the first time.

 

It is a disease and an addiction all rolled into one, with no support groups other than those that want to help you do more mods.

 

This bug also seems to cause people to walk up to Mini's in parking lots and look into windows to see what "they" have done.

 

Tru Dat
I am guilty. When I was returning form Colorado last month I stopped for breakfast in this coffee shop and parked next to a Mini. Yes I looked inside, I had a seat where I could watch the cars. Looked at alll the customers trying to figure out who had the Mini. Finally, I saw this women leave and go to the Mini, Then she stars looking in my windows and walking around looking at the outside. Then a man joins her and he does the same and I watch them pointing and conversing. They Finally get in car, after bickering about who is going to drive, and as they slowly pull out they keep eying my Mini.

 

Sitting down here in San Diego for the past two weeks I have done it several times Seems like many of them need to do their first Mod...

On a different subject Crevier sent a check for the replacement of iPod/iPod Cover/Cable the sad part is they made it for cost only. I guess that the tax part comes out of my wallet. The good part after I purchased the cable from a different dealer and by using ebay for the cover and Craigslist for the iPod I came out with a 8 Gig iPod new cover and still had enough money to fill my gas tank up from empty

 

Carded two Minis today A dark Silver S at Wells Fargo, Joe should have seen it but he never leaves his office And a Pure Silver S at the gym. Let me know if they call Steve

 

Airbag light stays on. Had seats reupholstered and can't get light to go off. Removed negative battery wire to see if it would reset but that's a negatory!! Can you help a mini in need?

 

Sounds like a loose connector? Or unhooked?

 

Sounds like the key was turned on with the seat connectors off. Needs Dr Steves majic

 

I can reset the light as long as they didn't damage the airbag in the seat. It just takes a minute if everything was put back together correctly.

Steve

 

thanks. If you are going to be in the shop tomorrow, I can come up and get it reset. The airbags in the seats look fine when I was watching them take the leather off to restitch and reupholster.

 

I have to leave at 3:00pm for about an hour or two so come by before then.

Steve

 

Steve, Thanks for the assist on the airbag light. Everything is A-OK now. See you Friday

 

Well I just got done installing the GP rear trim pieces Nice clean look. A little over 2 hours to do and didn't break anything.

 

We want pictures! And video, if you have it.

Steve

 

How about I show you in person tomorrow night Blimey Cabrio said he installed his in 15 minutes He said no removing the wheels or the liners or the bumper. He just pulled them off I removed everything. Now I know what needs to be deep cleaned on my car

 

Some are loose, but the newer cars are a b!tch. They hang on for dear life. It takes less than a hour to do it by removing the bumper and not bending it all to he!! in the process of removing the old piece. I bet Blimey can change a cam in 15 minutes too.
