Sell Up! Everything Must Go! Updated 13/10/16
Turbo Mini Forums

I've done a very silly thing and bought a Ford Capri 2.8 injection so to prevent the boss from murdering me I am selling up my mini stuff.

Feel free to PM me offers on items/multiples, worst I can say is no and if the pricing of anything is a mile out please let me know!

MK1 Austin Pressed Grille
As per pictures, has 2 notches cut out for bonnet straps not really visible when the moustache is on and washers welded on for the included Smithy's bits buttons.

Intercooler Hose Kit
This was used to fit a 2wd cossie intercooler in the grille area of my clubman when using a T3 and a Nic/Fusion Fabs style plenum. 2 x 45 degree 51mm alloy bends, 2 x 51-60mm joiners to fit cossie cooler and a 90 degree and 45 degree silicone hose. All clips included needs a really good clean.

John Cooper Signed Moto-Lita Steering Wheel & Cooper Gearknob
Steering wheel is in good overall condition with a few marks here and these (you can see a mark on the leather in the picture) commensurate with its age.
The gearknob had a crack on the enamel badge but is still presentable.

The wheels are pretty rare to find in good condition these days and Minisport sell them for over £400!

AEM Wideband Gauge
As per pictures has had a Smiths chrome bezel grafted on this has removed the usual screw fascia so not reversible. Looks a lot more at home in a mini dash like this in my opinion. The wire to the wideband sensor has been cut and was joined with a plug (visible in the pictures) to get it through bulkhead this will either need re-joining or the plug replacing. The gauge has about 5k usage but the sensor only has about 2k usage so plenty of life left in it. I've also got a lambda boss and bung to go with it.

Modified Turbo Head
Orignally started life as a Minispares MSE3 head but was reworked by BENROSS to have 28cc chambers and significant additional porting work.
It also sports 30mm exhaust valves (hardened seats suitable for unleaded), double springs, inner spring locators etc.
Powered the worlds fastest metro van (sic) to a 13.9 up the strip and 175bhp on 17psi of boost on the rollers.
Done approx 2000miles since BENROSS reworked and reconditioned the head with new valves, guides, springs etc and the additional porting.

Instagram @jdm_brett

Updated:-

I've yet to price and photograph but I've also got:-

Rebuilt helical box with 3.4 FD

1275 block machined for oil fed thrusts & zetec jets

Another gearstick

Injection front subframe

Set of driveshafts

Long driveshaft

1275 transfer case & wok

big valve 12g940 for reconditioning

Turbo engine, head & box (missing ancilleries, flywheel, wok, crank damper & timing chain tensioner) turns over freely but I would advise rebuild. Should have 6581 crank & 3.2 FD in it.

Steering rack - looks tatty but worked fine when removed from my spi

2 x A+ DAM5625 box for rebuild with 3.44 FD

Injection gear selector and rods (longer)

There will also be a few more bits coming off the car but I won't put up for sale until they are off.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Matty Manifold Sold

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

The box and modified head are very tempting. The head would be reunited with his old friend actually! Hmm...
