Mine is lowered with H&R Springs...

 

Heheheheh.. love the car cover! :-)

 

Hehehe, thanks!!! Its so funny!

 

Since you are the only other member on this forum that already took delivery of the car I wanted to ask you a question.

Do you know if there are valves in the exhaust that open at a certain rpm for noise regulations? Do you have a picture? If it has those valves, I want them open!

In case you have no idea what I'm on about, the Corvette Z06 has it too.




Thanks in advance!

 

Actually I dont have any idea if the car has it but the exhaust sound is so clear and noisy... When you push the pedal down (driving not parked) and you drop it fast it makes a sound like a "ta,ta,ta,ta"... I dont know how to explain it in english, sorry. But what Im going to do is to rec a video of the exhaust wile driving with the cam outside focusing the exhaust exits.

 

IMO Your Clubman is just begging for body color painted wheel arches and sil plates! Looking Good!!!!

 

Thanks! Im sorry but... "IMO"? And sil plates? What does it means?

About the wheel arches... I dont like it very much... I will plan it when the JCW Aero kit will be available...

 

Yes, exactly. You are referring to the 'pops', which sometimes are very loud

When you installed the springs, did you take a picture of the exhaust system?

The sound is indeed very clear but I sometimes have the impression when I'm pushing real hard from under 2000 rpm to 3000 rpm there is a sudden change in noise.

But yes, it sounds great! No more need for aftermarket stuff!

 

This is a MINI... you will need more and more stuff... Hahaha...

I'm not referring to the popping... It's another thing... Its the sound that makes the air while slides through the exit exhaust pipes when you push down to 3500 and drop the gas... It's something philosophical explained like this... Hahaha...

I have a pic of the exhaust, yes....

 

It's so addicting But I decided not to mod it anymore.

Thanks for you picture. I don't see any valves. (I think, I'm not a mechanic )

 

I dont think MINI will do something like that... This is not a Porsche with Sound Kit... Hehehe

 

Good point. I will ask the dealer when I go for maintance within 3000 km.

 

Nice Minis...the only thing that is a real eyesore is that stadium .

 

I live 2 minutes far by walking from the Bernabeu Stadium (Real Madrid F.C.) ... And my neighbourhood becomes the "city without law"...

 

I am teasing you!...I am "cule" but I really like your city...not too much your home team...but maybe you are "del Atleti".
Disfruta tu coche y saludos desde Manhattan.

I'm "del Madrid" until death... Hehehe...

I'm enjoying it so much...

If all goes well, I'll be in NY in April for 6 months... Missing so much my clubby!!

 

First... i need a translator!
xBoX, translate-me!!!!!!!

I have more pics of the Nacho's clubman, at night... is a "NIGHT CLUBman"

[translate mode/on]Estoy registrado pero como no tengo ni idea de ingles, no puedo hacer una presentación en condiciones... [translate mode/off)

The pics...

 

Hahaha...

"Im registered but as I dont have any clue of english, I can not make an ideal presentation of my car..." Fildeferro sadi.

 

Damn

It's sits so low!

 

Yes... and I like it so much... The r56 stock looks like a truck... hehehe...

 

I agree, the R56 sits just a bit too high but it only bothers me when you really start to notice. JCW lowers the car by one cm, which is just perfect.

R55's sit slighty lower at the back, which is good

 

The JCW... If you want to lower it thats the worst thing you can do... I have a friend with it installed and it looks like... Ah, ejem... Ok, you have JCW Supension... And it is so high!! The difference was more noticed in the r53 than in the r56...

 

Nice job looks awesome

 

Someone REALLY likes their new Mini Clubman...Enjoy! NJP
