MINI Project (again)

If you are implying that yours is not yet running or driving, wouldn’t you be the one walking?

Got my rear seat delete in. The rear seats weigh about 50 lbs so it will compensate for the weight of the cage.

I attempted to install the throttle controller but it appears that they sent me the wrong harness. There are plastic tabs on the inside of where it plugs into the gas pedal which stop the harness from fully connecting. The red circles show where there should be slots to accept the tabs like on the stock harness (left).

That RSD looks way better than mine did. Does it bolt down anywhere?

Sorry to hear about your last Mini, I lurked your thread about the accident. I actually really like the red and it can definitely look great if done proper. Glad to see you were able to purchase your old one for the mods/spare drive train. Excited to see some updates, keep up the good progress! These are super fun cars :tup:

@AShort Thanks!

Yeah it has a 90° Elbow in the middle that screws into the old mounting point for the seat back hinge plus two more attachment points in the rear corners.

The main hoop for the rear cage arrived today.

I approve of this whole thread.

How many people do work at Breetimes??? Its like every car pic is at his place haha

We like to keep him busy haha.

was this on Walden by the mall around 8pm last night? Saw a red one having some fun getting around cars.

glad to see you’re having fun with it!

I billed out over $2700 in new parts for the paint warranty, and almost $2000 in body and paint labor. along with my tech’s re-building of the motor, this is a brand-new car.

another one may be coming down the line within the next few weeks, too ;).

I might be interested if it’s the same type deal he got haha. Can you PM me if/when it comes in?

Nope, got my wisdom teeth out yesterday so I haven’t been driving.

The more I drive it the more I realize what I steal this was. It’s so solid. Thanks again!

Do it!

Would you be able to take another photo, maybe from the rear of the car, so I could see the RSD better. It looks great from the view that you showed!

I’ll let you know for sure. I think it’s an '02 S, not sure of any other details ATM.

What happened to your vanity plate lol

Hmm I definitely need to look into that. Thanks for the heads up.

It had to be stored because it was registered in my dad’s name. I should get it back in a month.

and if you need your pulley done Helix is one of the cheapest places I know of to do it
