^^ Good stuff at superpro, powerflex is still on sale but they dont have a bushing like that.
I like Superpro. I think Powerflex is a bit of ripoff. $90 for a set of bushings. Superpro is an underdog, so they try harder. We are number two so "We try harder".
To give an apple to apple comparison, these are the bushings for the front sway bar (both are not on sale prices):
Powerflex - $53.99
Superflex - $22.41
I fail to see the difference. A lot of Mini specialty shops have been offering their own house brand bushings like these (and for more money because premium price conveys superior product ) so it is no rocket science.
Thanks for the suggestion. I ruled that out from the outset. I have a few novel ideas. As I rarely need to look at the gauge, that opens up more options. Ideally, I would like to get a NLA JCW dual gauge pod for the center "console", but they don't come up for sale much anymore.
Our Mini is so lovable for every cubic mm is already used for something.
I cannot find a place to mount it, so it will have to just sit in the parcel shelf until I figure out a satisfactory home for it.
Ah yes definitely needed for the bytetronik datalogging coming your way. You can always make your own holder of sorts. This is what I did with mine when I had just the 2 gauges.

Why is your cockpit looks the mirror image of mine? Must be a Brit.
I semi-homemade mine and both pods already have occupants:
I am amazed how difficult it is to find durable flip flops in this country. Those looks decent with high density rubber and more expensive among the selections. Well they turned out to be too heavy because of the heavier foam and putting pressure points as well as clumsy walking. Lesson learnt.
I like cookwares of all sorts, especially those evoke local experience. I am not into fancy small appliances except few tried and true.
Have you tried rainbow flip flops? super durable and expensive but well worth it.

I just checked it out. Alas it is not my kind of flip flop. I like very lightweight ones. Walmart used to be my supplier and I would buy like 5 pairs at a time. They cost between $.99 to $2.99. Those are the best if I was lucky for that year's supply. Majority of the time the foam density is too low, and the flip flop does not last. There are a lot to look for in lightweight flip flops. Pressure points, sole foam material density, sole surface traction, traction on dry and wet surface (very important safety consideration), hidden sharpness of the strap. I can write a book on flip flops. Unfortunately the Walmart buyers has no clue, and same goes with other retailer that happens to carry them.
One very important attribute of flip flop is the ease I can slip them on in total darkness. I dislike the upscale flip flops. They are too heavy. With heaviness, the strap have to be widen to reduce pressure points (yes - PSI).

lol - you can definitely write a book on flip flops.
i don't recall the ones i purchased >10 yrs ago but it's fairly lightweight and very durable (still in use). my preference is for the flip flop to be slightly stiff and ones that last! the last thing i want is for the strap to rip off which has happened on numerous occasions with the cheap flip flops.

For me I wear flip flops for their feather lightness. This pair that I bought in Bangkok is the most I paid, and it turned out to be a dud. It has the densest foam and I thought, good, it will last. Little did I know the dense foam is the Achille's heel because of the weight. It is the worst flip flops that I have ever wear. The reason is all that mass that you feet have to flip and flop. The best analogy is a Mini with 17" S-Heavy with runflat. Too much unsprung mass is never good except for looks.
these flip flops are like 17" S-Heavy with runflat tire
This is another haul from another trip to Thailand.
I also bought cookware from Tokyo as well as Hong Kong (Shanghai Street), Vancouver, Toronto, San Francisco Japantowns (there are two), and China. Love the cookware street in Tokyo - Kappabashi near Asakusa. Still have to make it to the one in Paris.
Ah nice man, nope not a brit, but will take the great minds think alike haha.. Nice job there!
Havianas flip flops, although not cheap or feather lite, last a long time.. Quality
Keep me guessing. There are not that many RHD countries. UK, or older former colonies of "the kingdom where the sun never sets". Need some contextual hints. Even Australia is LHD.
Nope keep it guessing, here comes a big clue.. Pic of the car at the shop having some exhaust work done. Should be easy from here.. And yes RHD is the "right" way haha
Lol I wouldn't say cheated.. Australia people think of Sydney which is S33deg.. I'm in Johannesburg which is S26deg, so technically didn't cheat if one was thinking Sydney hehehe.. But good find on the clues
