Mini 8v Twin Kam turbo project
Turbo Mini Forums

Due to work/time commitments i've not dedicated as much effort to the mini as it deserves. I feel ashamed to leave it sitting gathering dust and could do with putting the money towards a deposit on a house rather than under a dust sheet, so i've decided to put it up for sale.

Good luck with the sale. Looks a solid base for a project, thought about splitting?

If you split it is be interested in the doors

out of curiosity were you going to use the std cams on the 8v or custom profile?

Searching is all you need on TurboMinis

Lots of nice bits on this one.

I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.

If you decide to split this then can i call dibs on the rear view mirror, fuel tank, starter motor, ATB and fuel pump and filter?

Although i do feel i'm jumping the gun, good luck with the sale!

If you decide to split, can I have dibs on the gearbox? but good luck with the sale though mate

I would maybe have the eng, at the right price.

If you did split i'd also be interested in the starter, and the harnesses

I'd be interested in the 7.9 brakes and defiantly the quaife ATB.

Id be interested in the turbo an brake masters set up
Also dibs on the single wiper conversion if
You do split?

Edited by dev 11 on 24th Dec, 2012.

shame about the sale, but if you split also interested in the starter motor and ecu and loom and poly windows (doors only)

Thanks for the interest, will keep you all posted should i decide to split it.

would be interested in a few bits if you look to split and I'm only up the road!

cheers

Ian

As above would certainly be untreated in a good few bits if splitting

Ffs at least it can't correct that!

Back up for sale, still not had the time to finish.

Offers please...

I'm interested in a large part, or the whole power unit if you decide to split.

if you do consider splitting there are things I am still interested in other than the poly windows
