Nope, but expensive. Minisport stock them. 10-15 grand depending on what bits you want. I'd imagine they'd be better value over there without shipping, and markup down here.

But I must say, that is awesome.

Yes it's different, and yes I love it.

kewl... leave that sucker just as it is.... 219.7bph atw - gotta be close to 400bhp per ton right there

so not fair how you guys can do that to a car (trick subframes etc.) and just slap the plates back on without any approvals

Hee hee... "Z cars frame" hee hee,,,,well Carl, it was a question not a statement...

Just for anyones intrest--> Carl makes his own Titanium subframes people.

Hey Carl , good to see you here again, & now what was i talking to you about a while ago with 2 x Bimmer Twinkys, both turbo charged in your twinny mini??? Yeah???

Now here we are & you`ve been sneaking around doin almost that anyways, yeah yeah, i know, you were allready on the ball :-) & i bet some NOS is comming too yeah???

good sh!t man

& now,,, is there anyone out here going to argue with me about the bonuses of twin cam, turbo, injected minis anymore??????????????????????????

220hp @ 7grand & i bet there`s more to be had from that lot yet for sure.

go Carl you good thing & well done to Tom as well, send him my regards will you Carl

cheers
