Dear Mini-mates,
I hope you all have great fun yesterday morning. For those who missed out, this is to let you know our next one will be on 8th of March night at 7:30pm at Kowloon Bay HK International Trade and Exhibition Centre. Then we will drive to the new airport for dinner together. Hope you all like it.

YC,

According to Apple Daily on February 25, 2003, Magnecor wires supplied by TW Autosport costs HK$1,200. Thanks so much for your budget buy for us.

Derrick, Ada and Wayne,

Where are you? Please do show uo on March 8, 2003. Taking all of you into account, there will be 13 in the gang. However, we still need BRG, PW, VR and EB to enrich the colour combination.

Regards,
Manho

yukclee · Feb 26th, 2003, 12:05 AM

I hope you all enjoy the Magnecor wires. The Australian distributor mis-quoted the dealer price to me and that's why it is so cheap. Can't get them anymore.
I found the effect of the wires is more noticeable than the spark plugs as I put them on seperately.
And the exhaust I recently put on is by far the biggest difference. Now the problem is the noice inside the car especially when the engine is running at about 2800 rpm. It seems there is some low frequency resonance. Probably the same 'Magnaflow' syndrome. I will let it run for some more time before deciding how to fix it.

ar75,

I was seriously ill last week, that's why I didn't show up last Sunday.

I'm not sure whether I can join the group at 8/3 but I will try my best. Let me reply you later.

ar75 · Feb 26th, 2003, 02:16 PM

Ada,

I'm sorry to hear that. It's the flu season here in Hong Kong and beware of "Bird Flu". Hope you will get better soon. Don't miss the chance to have fun with other Mini fans.

Manho

Of course, I will try my best. Luckily, my 'Chicken Flu' has gone.

Hello! Everyone,
Just received my car. I would like to join you all on March 8, 2003.

Dear GTRaymond,
Great to hear you got your car and welcome to join us. See you on 8th March. How is the RE01 performing? Are they better than the stock runflats?
So far based on our experience, highly recommend to change the spark plugs and the spark plug cables too.

GTRaymond · Mar 2nd, 2003, 08:24 AM

YCLee,
I have already installed the Denso spark plugs (IK20) which was bought from Improve. As recommended by Danny of getperformanceparts in US, it should be regapped from .042 to .030.
Regarding the RE01, it may be the only choice of high performance street tyre other than R tyre. It 's well balanced between durability, silence and grip. And more important it has full range of size.

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen,

I would like to join on the 8th but I am afraid I cannot make it at 7:30pm in Kln Bay. Can I call someone at around 9pm as I will be in the airport as well. Please email me your contact on nelson@dentrinity.com

Hi Raymond, welcome to MINI2!

I like the color combo you have, the same one I will go for when I get my MCS. Seems like you have quite a few modifications already, do you have any pics to share? I have seen those SE37k rims on another member's car before and it looks quite stunning.

Thanks in advance.

yukclee · Mar 6th, 2003, 12:02 AM

Hi, Nelson. I have sent you a personal message with my phone number. Pls. check. You can contact me when you are ready and see where we are.
Hope to see you by then.

Hi guys,

Happy to see that so many new members will show up on March 8. However, I'm afraid that I cannot attend the meet that night because it's my father-in-law's birthday. It seems I miss it whenever it is held in Kowloon side. So, YC, would you mind to PM me your mobile number again? I've lost my phone, and all the number stored inside, weeks ago. If I can join you guys afterwards, I'll give you a call. BTW, my phone is back to work now and the number remains unchanged.

Regards,
Manho

adampoon · Mar 6th, 2003, 03:23 AM

I got my car not more than one month, really want to join you guys, but I always have some other must do thing whne you guys met. I wish I vcan join you some day later

Guys, can't join you all this weekend as month-in-law is in town and need to do some family outing.

YC,

Ordered the spark cable from Moss Mini and it cost around US$99 (including shipping), which is still cheaper than buying it from HK.

At least, we have 3 new members,namely, Adam, Nelson and (presumed) Raymond, under this topic. Welcome all of them. With the popularity of Next Magazine, definitely we will become stronger.

That's wonderful news. Hopefully on my next return to HK I will have the opportunity to feast my eyes on a diverse group of Coopers and MCSs with many enthusiasts on a future meet. Welcome all new members!
