LOVELY

nice to see you have started a build thread buddy, not sure im happy seeing the clubby in someone else's garage tho

now for the engine side of things....this is where it gets serious
basicly id like to push around the 170bananas mark out of the blow through set up and i think this is pretty acheivable looking at johnnys set up. ill be getting the kit from slark racing and ive been down there and spoke to neil about it and have the go ahead.
he never made a dummy kit so will be starting from scratch again on the pipe work, brackets and what not but he is going to build the kit on my car when its ready which should hopefully be around may time.
gearbox wise im running a straight cut box, straight cut drops, straight cut final drive and a sailsbury LSD


18cc forged omega pistons


specialist components steel H rods



MED crank


MED ultralite steel flywheel, backplate and paddle clutch


MED race head running 21cc

Looks good,out of interest what spec is your crank,what have MED done to it and what sort of price was it.

wow what a shopping list good luck with the build

My small bore turbo project http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vt&tid=473901

thanks for the good comments

mini Pete the crank has been reground, ni-temp, wedged and x drilled.
costs just under 300 quid if you exchange your old crank.

Nice wheels mate, cant remember them looking that good haha, i'll be watching this one closely

Louis

looking good. im going to get my crank sorted. i was using a standard one with over your estimate bhp figure

Cheers for that James.

That is a good looking car, and I really like the wheels. What are those?? :)

This is one of those projects to keep an eye on!

Mini special alloys with the Carl Austin touch

Do the omegas come with circlips or is it necessary to machine ptfe buttons when using h-rods?

yes robs right there special wheels or the proper name is exaction wheels.

the omegas had the short pins and clips which i got with the pistons from MED

I've just got some ptfe buttons from Carl for my omegas.

added a fire extinguisher the other day.
one of the nuts is spinning in the heel board aswell where the subframe bolts up :( so having to sort that out at the moment.
going to start building the engine up next week. block went off to med wednesday to be bored and honed, ive ordered my cam followers and now all i need is center main strap and crank bearings.

im glad this mini is getting another forced induction engine !!

Yes i moved to the darkside

Instagram @jdm_brett

oh yes LOVE forced induction
my last suck through supercharged 1380 ran 150bhp.
hope this one runs around 170 odd.
then next year ill think about selling the blow through kit and going turbo so i can really wind that boooost up

just treated the engine to a windage tray.

really looking forward to this engine build and i really hope it gives me good power figures!

what do other people think power wise the engine could acheive?
from the spec up above?

This project is perfect other than one minor detail...

Supercharger.

Bin it and do it properly with a turbo. 170hp will be a piece of piss on a turbocharged lump. Most have struggled to get near with a supercharger.

In the 13's at last!.. Just
