I want to see more pics of your floor, i have this odd feeling you did something to it, i have seen a picture of an inbord exhaust and a special looking floor on a mini with a very similar colour to yours was it?

Yes mate, I'll let you know what date I'm thinking of booking. Now I've put my rear wheels on the front and there's a bit of weight on them ... One of my tyres has gone flat!

Car looks great mate!! Quick question, how is your fuel tank fixed in place? Got something similar in mine, and currently it sits into angle brackets in each corner but nothing to hold it down.

Back in the workshop tomorrow Ron, and about time! Forgot to pick up a few sheets of ally on Friday so looks like tomorrow will consist of lightweight drive flanges and seeing what can be made lighter on the car... Will update properly tomorrow :)

Thanks guys, the only update I have is that I dropped a big sheet of alluminium off with the car ready for Friday when I'm not working and can find a heater!



This is the state the cars in atm .. Thick in dust and mouse droppings all over my bulkhead!!

A grill must seem heavy on your car

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!
