Mintos! very very nice

whats with that engine start button? that 4 real?

[Keith]

Nice! How much did you lower it?

[DinkaDonka]

Hi Keith , glad u like it , as far as i no it has been lowered 25-30 mm which i thikn is just right asi thinks 50mm is a bit over the top.

Cheers,
Paul

I really like your "engine start " button!
Where did you get that tricky little piece from?

[CUTiger3]

Looks great

Oh no you have just created the ultimate sin - Sticking an Cooper S badge on a cooper. Apart from that nice motor.

[DinkaDonka]

Hi every1 , thanks for all your views and im glad the are all positive , i know the S badge waz a little cheeky but hey it looks good , hehe.

The starter button waz bought from chrom desing in germany but can also be bought on new mini spares(£90 , roughly)

Juat a small note , i have completed the mosd on the outside of my car simply because if i take it any further it will be over the top.

Thanks again,
Paul

it seems to me that with the 'Start Button' in the lighter socket, that the reach for the starter is quite far??? How does it feel. I like that location, mostly because I have fears of cutting or drilling holes anywhere in my MINI. Did you do the wiring or have it done for you?? Do you feel that there is any down side to the 'Start Button'? Your car looks great, really like it lowered. This is in the future for me, just need time and more importantly $$$$.

I like the start button, I read u got nos 2. How much nos u putting threw it? is the engine standard apart from the chip?

[DinkaDonka]

Hi Mini Cruiser

The guy who did all the mods on my car has nos (100bhp kit) and the chip , i do not but plan to have it done in the near future.Hopefully!!

The nos he is running looks very inpressive and he has also invested al ot of time and ££ into developing it to a very high standard.with the nos i believe his cars is running at 245bhp and does 0-60 in 5.5s , not bad eh.

Cheers,
Paul

Paddy,
The location for the button is perfect i too thought it may be too out of the way but it really isnt , and its not a chore reaching for it , lovley!

Cheers,
Paul

Nice car Paul what springs have you had put on, or have you had a full suspension kit? Like the starter rather funky.
Do you not worry you will blow your engine in to many pieces with nitrous, my mates dad killed a 2.9 granada engine he had in his wesfield but he had decieded to drill out the injectors so they pumped more nos through, not the best decision ever. Solved the problem, hes now running a cossie lump without nos and there aint much that will keep up with it.

[DinkaDonka]

Hi Loui , i am running H&R springs on my cooper and they are great , glad u like that car.

Some1 else also said about the nos , i dont actually have it on my car altough Jon Sanders of mini design does which is where i got all the work on my car done but i hope to be putting it on my car next year! hehe

Thanks ,
Paul

That's really good looking. Nice tinting. And it's nice to see someone paint their aerokit "correctly". At least half the folks neglect to "black out" the area around the foglights, and it always looks so unfinished to me. (At least on the lighter colors.)

How dark is that tinting? Too dark to be legal around here I suspect.

[DinkaDonka]

Hi dave glad u like it , i totally agree about the black surround on the fogs on the bodykit , i think it finishes that part of the car off

As for the tints they are not like totally black but are fairly dark not sure about how legal they are even in my area , lol

Cheers,
Paul
