Stonefields big pimping

fuck I heart this car

you are the biz richie

One thing to remember that I have noticed towing is on shit like motorway or passing lanes and cunts go to merge in behind your car and cut it close, IE, cut it close to the back of your car not the back of the trailer they havent seen is there. It's amaizing how many people dont notice until late.

I've had a couple of close calls towing mine and its not even low. That is morons in AKL though

try JIF

Fuck that is a sweet oil Filler Cap

Miniman, did you tag miniman in a guestbook recently or is there another miniman?

geustbook where?

(insert pic of other side here)

people are free to roll whenever they want/need to though

also, fuck that waka makes me excite

you're cool bizzo

remember it also removes the paint from places that are next to impossible to repaint thus rust may set in again if you are not extremely carefull.

I did once hear of a place that acid dipped shells, then after thorough washing and drying, dipped them in etch primer, alas this was years ago and i have no recollection of anything other than that

sweet thread D-unit

im looking at building a forward tilting seat bracket for my passengers side seat, its fairly annoying

broseph you should have a gander at the things i just got for my mini

what seats have you got? i got me some cobra classic buckets and they came with rails/brackets to fit straight into mini, i'd bet my money they do them for scrotums too. I havent assembled/installed them yet cos im lazy as shit (end project update) but could get a pic if your interested, which i know you will be so i'm about to go sort it out now

skidline is daily, I didnt sell it cos i cbf with mortgage atm didnt buy wheels or slam cos they cost money.

MK1 is sitting in a shed with a protective coat of dust on it

Hey man.

Out of interest, can you take pics of the ports? and any coding on the block, Also if you take the rocker cover off there will be a code on the head, will also be interesting to see what rockers they've used.

they are pretty fucking heavy

to your questions though, no they arent all the same.

Early ones have universal joints instead of inner CV's. I'm presuming you have the CV ones. In which case I think they are all the same, or close enough. Difference comes in with the shifter some have an Aluminium casing, the length of the shifter, some just have two rods between shifter and box.

Mounting is all generally pretty similar.

Bang for buck, up to you, people just about give away 1000cc engines, 1275 is the best off the shelf but you'd be looking at 500 for something that runs reliably.

pics please

If the big players have it in stock, the bloakes at SSA will get it in and sell you what you are after

last time I did it I priced up a length from fletchers I think at my works good discounted rate, and SSA gave me a 1M length for cheaper than the 6m length divided by 6, dont quite know how that worked out.

Give a place called Steel south Auckland a look up, edit 09 2635806, 7 Mana Place in Manukau. They may/should be able source some. They cut to length too so would save you buying a full length

I presume you know/tried the normal

Fletcher easysteel

Steel and tube

Atlas Special steels

etc

Material?

I imagine this is legit, but to me it looks as if its creating a bit of a weak point, when its short the strait section is quite short, then adding however much to it seems it should be made stronger

he probably means they have no diff

I rolled up to motorvation years ago when my alternator crapped out in my mini they seemed all good and pretty onto it they just diagnosed it for me free of charge. If you just want to get it reco'd you could possibly/should look at talking to an electric motor reconditioner. A1 pumps and motors are pretty good, the co-owner is an old workmate, their work is good and competitively priced.

for fucks sakes

this is one of the biggest threads in the newschool section and not once has it delivered.

hello lads,

Attended a function at this place in the weekend, thaught it may appeal to some of you. If you're in Auckland, or visiting it is definitly worth going to have a look expecially if you are into old bikes, they have some very very cool shit, they don't have an NZ based website but have a look around the aussie site and they cover the NZ stuff in there and directions to get there etc.

good evening Clint

I am sadly a mini owner and have for a long time been dreading the Cert process.

I have aftermarket modified brakes, suspension and engine, as well as seats and dash. My main questions are:

-I imagine you have seen mini's before with a modifed firewall thanks to a sidedraught carb demanding space. they have a large hole in the firewall originally and have so far only removed a section smaller than a 5 dollar note. i do however want to remover more, i know i have to box this off for all sorts of reasons but can i make the box removable to ease the pain if i need to remove the engine/carb?

- The engine itself is based on an original engine from a 1300 austin (1275cc) but is now a worked version of it, using mostly standard parts although almost all where heavily modified, what Records of work done do you need, as it has increased in power by 25% both from the basic 1000cc that was in there in the first place, but also from the 1275cc i started with.

-The suspension and brakes where all bolt on items but include adjustable height platforms if you know how a mini's suspension is set up, adjustable bottom arms and castor rods at the front with a brake setup that are an aftermarket performance part. Again, what documentation do you need of these items? Also is gaurd rub strictly not allowed or is there some understanding for it?

I plan on creating basically a whole new dash thanks to the carb again, are there any rules on position, type, size etc of gauges? I presume most rules will be regarding speedo. Also are there any legalities on displaying the mileage of the car? ie does it need to display what the known distance the car has travelled?

Finally are there any rules on needing a oil catch/breather tank for the road?

Take your time, PM me if it makes it any easier. Again your help is much appreciated
