It will be below 190 and that is OK.

I find it amazing the difference in torque (ie strength of CV's & thread) between drums & discs!

Look at them, they are totally different design.
The disc one is huge by comparison.

<edit> By disc brake CV I mean used on Cooper S and later.
997 and 998 Cooper run the drum brake type CV, nut torque is 60 lb/ft.

The disc brake CV was made for a bigger/heavier car before it was used on the Mini. :wink:

Could that particular car happen to have the distinction of being the most badge-engineered model in history? :lol: :lol: :lol:
