Changed my plugs yesterday. Drivers side rear is “interesting”.

Yep, measure twice, cut once

Back onto it today.  Would like to get the wheel housing and drivers floor done this weekend, see how I go.  Got the repair done on the wheel housing.  Used the donor part Cooper kindly gave me.  Was actually in pretty good condition, just had some rust on the bottom so made up a repair, turned out pretty neat.  Then tacked it in place with tek…[Read more]

Thanks mate, put a real smile on my dial

Did I hear you say paint?  Colour, scheme?

Just had a chance to take it out for a decent drive at lunchtime (some benefits in Iso).  Prob first good drive since it tried to kill me.  Did a plug change first as I hadn’t done that since the dyno runs etc.  Started great, let it warm up and just beautiful.  Man, I never tire of driving this thing.  Really strong lumpy idle, actually rela…[Read more]

Just take a good look at the passenger side where the spare sits. I didn’t and it’s a touch closer to the tyre that the drivers side. Slight love tap with a mallet fixes it though.

Not sure about project bloat. Can’t see too much you have done that’s not making it faster or stronger?
