Just saw this today.. not sure if its been posted so far. while I wouldn't buy it others may.

JCW Motor

 

It just bothers me that someone who posts an ad for something that costs $4500 (or more) can't be bothered to proofread their ad copy... But maybe that's being picky.

Sounds like a good deal! For the price of just the JCW upgrade, you could get seconds on all of the non-JCW engine parts. The ECU alone would be worth close to a grand.

I wonder how many wrecked JCW-equipped MINIs are out there.

 

i would jump on this if i had the cash, that would be a good swap into a cooper... can you say sleeper??

 

throw in a tranny as well...6 speed MCS tranny...that is

its the same seller but he's got a tranny he wants to unload also

hmmm...would this fit and work on a regular MC?

 

^ Assuming you have a 6 speed transmission and want to cut a hole in your hood for the intercooler (or get a MCS hood).

(Hummmm...I have to get me one of those "supercharged" transmissions that guy's advertising! )

 

Or stick with the cooper hood and get a water/air intercooler, or a front mount intercooler. In either case, that engine looks to be an easy swap into a Cooper. Has everything you need.

Sleeper.. sounds good to me!

That fellow with the crispy mini should hook up with this auction.

 

Wow, that would be the greatest engine to put in a cooper, well not the GREATESET. but that would be great
:smile:

 

I know of a cooper sleeper that would kill a JCW mini...shhhhhh dont wake the turbo mini

 

>>I know of a cooper sleeper that would kill a JCW mini...shhhhhh dont wake the turbo mini

yea, JCW is over-rated. i would rather have a built cooper engine and turbo it.

 

Doesn't that JCW engine he is selling include the Transmission? It's still attached to the axle's in the Pic. It seems like the MINI get's to a "Totaled" state rather eaisily. I think we will see many more used engines/transmissions for sale.

 

how bout' twincharging that then swap it in a COOPER.

ah that would kickk.

 

>>>>I know of a cooper sleeper that would kill a JCW mini...shhhhhh dont wake the turbo mini :smile:

 

ok maybe im just retarded but i keep looking at the picture of the motor, and the IC kind of looks backwards or flipped maybe its just the aluminum piece , does anyone see this? maybe i need some sleep,

NO, get a front mount intercooler so you dont need the ic intake. Makes sense?
