    I'm genuinely glad it went to a good home and you still have it. I should have polybushed the rear subframe on this one, yours handles better!

    A few pics

    Soooo much time, effort, patience and love gone into that.

    You deserve many years of happiness in the driving seat.

    I kept the mods to a minimum. I'm happy with the rear spoiler as no one has one, the wheels are "subjective" but S13's benefit from wider rubber. It's lowered and the shocks are uprated.
    That said, after my trip to America I've changed my attitude to driving a bit

    The Mini will be finished next year and makes this S13 refurb look like a wash and wax.
    Seriously guys I've put a monumental amount of work into the Mini.
    I'm just enjoying the S13 for now

    I'm thinking of selling the S14a CrazySX. It's sad it's just sat there doing nothing. It's still mega mint though
    The Mini thread is a billion pages long Jonny. If you have a few hours....
    http://www.theminiforum.co.uk/forums...-bolt-rebuild/
    In a nutshell, I only have to finish building the engine which to say the least, is full on.... I've even ported the oilways to get more HP to the wheels.
    Here are a few pics of it




    I have made some CF stuff for it. This is pre preg, not laid up wet. Pre preg is the dogs



    Paint job





    I'm getting tired of all these refurbs now. I want to finish the Mini though, its proper full on. I also have a mega mint Honda S2000 with 42k on it

    If your interested in buying, PM me but don't take the mick

    Thanks, though, I'll work my way through it slowly.

    Decided to have a look at the mini thread, reading everything. Just started page 30! Got up to the point where the welds have been ground out from the roof removal. Just as good as a good book. Such a good read and attention to detail is immense!
