I wouldn't do anything more than basic bolt ons. I mean shit...the car itself only weighs like 10lbs.

 

yeah very light shell, have you went down the track yet, should this combo run at least high 13's or low 14's ha what do you guys think...

 

i had the mini in its stock form and the motor was shot and needed a rebuild.. so here we are today

if you can get a mini with no engine or not runnin you can prob get the car for $2k and MiniTec sells a almost bolt up kit for $2500 then you need the engine/tranny and radiator and some other small stuff, but your on your way with all that stuff... they are at www.superfastminis.com...

 

sweet... makes me want to do one... did you ever consider the k20?

 

lol.... yeah, maybe next time around... i wanna do a mini pick up or the wagon next... but this one is far from done....

 

how much did it end up costing you?

 

well i had the car.... so i had to buy everything else....

without the car.... prob around $7000ish.... i didnt add it all up, and honestly i dont want too... still gotta paint and do the interior, roll cage and all the fun stuff now....

 

damn... thats a good bit of change but itll smoke almost anything...

 

I would learn how to drive it before you start putting aftermarket parts on. Is there any way you can beef up the suspension to make it a little more stable with that heavier, more powerful engine in it?

 

it has a full custom suspension....... theres nothing stock in the front of that car.. brakes, suspension (springs, shocks), fully adjustible toe/camber... fully adj ride height... everything is pretty much custom and new....

i am in dyer need of a LSD.....
