Sounds good. Looking at 2% crank pulley.

 

Good news Mike! If anyone now can't make it, I/we apologize. So far, it seems that this date works for everyone! Randy should be posting a sign-up sheet soon to confirm who is getting what, and what day & time slots...

 

Looked at my schedule and I’m happy to see that I can make these dates.

I’m down for a an Alta 15% SC pulley and an Alta 2% crank pulley.

Looking forward to seeing ya all @ BBM.

 

Yep, Nov. 19th and 20th are great. I'm in for a 2% cp.

 

I just might be running again by then If not I might still swing by to catch up with some of you.

 

Jason, haven't seen a post from you in a while! Hope to see you, and here the status of your MCS...

 

Anyone from the south bay going up? I wanna come to hang out.

 

Ill go up on the 19th (from Santa Clara)... if the MINI is running by then Ill take it, if not Ill still come check out some new cars and say hey.

 

Bay Bridge Motors right? And what time?

nvm

 

I was all over the December date, but I'm in Yosemite this weekend - with the in-laws.

 

Eric, with the weather we're having this late into Fall, Yosemite should be awesome! Sorry I won't get to see you again though...

Just a reminder, Bay Bridge's address is:

2408 Mandela Pkwy Oakland, CA 94607-1739

Hey, for those of you who might want some wheel locks, let me know, and I'll bring mine up. Looking to sell locally so I don't have to hassle with shipping...

Thanks again Randy for a real fun weekend. Great just hanging out and meeting everyone and oh yea for the new found performance of my car.

 

Cool stuff..I got a few pics...

they didn't see me as any competition...

 

Thanks Randy, Bay Bridge motors, and TonyB for setting this up.
And thanks again for ordering the pizza too .

It was good to meet with everyone on Saturday! Its nice to hang out with some fellow motorers. Its amazing how you can hang out for hours and talk 'shop'!

Not many folks on Sunday, but it was nice to finally meet a few of you! Happy and safe motoring to everyone over the Holidays.

 

I was the 0800 crank pully install,always a pleasure to watch Randy"perform".Great to exchange Mini ideas with other Mini owners and look under the hood.

 

Nice seeing you guys again.
Randy is the best!

I am absolutely lovin' my new 15% pulley!
VROOOOOOOOOOOOM!

 

Just wait till you add the 2% CP. More boost, quicker revs and smoother acceleration

 

Nikki,
Just curious. How would you describe the performance of your car after the pulley? Did you pick up more power across the entire RPM range or just at higher RPMs? Is the change really noticeable or more subtle?

 

Hi Brian,

I'm no expert (and maybe it's just my imagination), but I noticed that it's a 'smoother' drive - especially when starting from a stop in 1st gear. Not sure how to explain it but there is a different feel - less jerking when shifting. It's like there's less lag between letting out the clutch and when the motor is engaged.

Oh, and there's a definite increase of zip across the RPM range.
My commute is 6.5 miles on El Camino so I haven't been in 5th/6th too much yet, but when I'm zipping around in 3rd gear (passing & such) I feel it.

Put it on your wish list! And have Randy do the install next time he's in the area.
