One question- WTF would you want one? U can get more power with less hassle, with carbs, and hardly any bastard in Australia could tune an MPI Mini anyway...

my 2c- ah jest loves carbs! (preferably of Italian manufacture...) :twisted:

hey, you can prob get frount cuts from brickworkx in SA.

their isnt anywhere in aus that can tune efi/mpi etc mini. but they dont really need to be cos its all done by the computer. For example if you change a part it takes a short time for the computer to proform at its best.

Cheers Rob

Rob yeah I know they tune themselves, so does my EA Ford, haha- but what do you do when it f**ks up... I don't think anyone has the test gear over here, never mind the parts..! :wink:

MPI???? ( does this mean multi point injection??? )

if the above is correct, brickworx here in adelaide has a few coming in soon... 80,000km 1.3i, air con, 8.4 disc brakes, in a front half cut, with the bonnet, gaurds, subframe, dash, steering column, wiring etc...... $4 large (thats 4 thousand dollars in old peoples language)

not too bad really....

or for $9 large ( thats 9 thousand.... ) you could get a complete '94 model Jap Spec mini - 1000cc, air con, auto, approved for compliance and registration in SA..... friend of mine just ordered one.....

brickworx is fine AS LONG as you do the following.....

1. know your prices.
2. walk in with cash, walk out with your item.
3. or pay only when you receive the item.

if you're stupid with your money, you WILL get bitten. these are general rules for ALL shops, not just brickworx.....

(some of us are lucky enough to get credit at certain shops :wink: )
