Car is back together. Bled the brakes and the clutch slave cylinder and my brakes and clutch feel mighty fine. I just need to source another quart of fluid and I'll be able to test out the clutch to make sure everything's good. Car should be back on the road this week.

Got busy today adjusting the ride height and changing the look...again.

A not so teaser, teaser.

 

I assume you are being cognisant of the corner weights as you adjust ride heights! Certainly could make some interesting handling changes!

 

Looking good!

 

Somewhat. I've had "built" cars in the past that were corner weighted professionally but this one is more or less just eyeing it. I'm not too worried about it as I'm more or less lowered for looks. The MINI gets no track duty.

 

Yeee boiiii

 

Great thread! I love all the looks you've done. The latest being my favorite. Thanks for spending the time ...and money

 

SEXY!!! Loving the new look, and the yellow fogs.

 

Searched for boost leaks over the weekend and found a couple. Big thanks to Miniconcarne for hooking me up with silicone hoses for my IC end tanks and a bypass valve...for free. With personal delivery to boot!

Below is my home depot special tool I made.





"...pssssss...." is the sound of slow A big no no. Glad that I got my 4 extra psi back

 

Looks fantastic.... I've never been much of a fan of chrome but find it to be very fitting on the Mini.. One of many reasons why I love the Minis Styling.. Great work! OEM + no doubt.

 

Resurrecting an old thread here... But as probably many will agree, this Mini is one of the best on NAM. Very good balance of the classic Mini look with modern updates. Simply amazing.

I am also getting Megan coilovers soon (the EZ streets versions without camber plates, not the Euro street versions that it looks like you have). I realize the front splitter also adds to this look, but I want to go for that exact ride height. On the EZ streets the adjustments might not be the same, but how did you measure the drop? Is it even front and rear? What is the height to the top of the archs now? I also have 17 inch wheels.Thanks!

 

Evasive...

OMG, I LOVE the black aero grill and headlight trim... this is what I want mine to look like...

What is the car color?

 

Chili Red

 

Possibly one of the best looking Minis I've ever seen. A very nice balance of light and dark; the chrome around the blacked out headlights and the black strips with the chrome running lights. Nicely done.

 

Sorry (DUH), new guy here... what wheels are those.... thx...

 

Looking at his sig, they appear to be BBS RS II wheels
