    Hey folks, I don't suppose anyone knows the volume/dB reading of the standard MCS exhaust. This would be super useful as a trackday at thruxton is fast approaching 😁 and we are having to swap on a standard system as our current aftermarket system is far too loud. Any help is much appreciated

    Hello everyone. I've been kicking around on and off with Mini’s and BMW’s for a while, but finally taken the next step to post a note to say hello - I don't spend a lot of time around computers. Currently running an R56 after a couple of R53's and numerous DERV BMW's. Looks like a...

    Would you Mini-lovers kindly offer some insight? I pulled my engine and trans (of course) to freshen the little guy up after 90K of wear and tear. I looked at my sales document and sure enough I ordered the car new with an LSD. But does it really have an LSD? I wasn't sure as the car drives...

The service history, MOT and minor repairs all checked out however, I went on a test drive and...

    Hi all, having issues with my cooling system, car seems to be warning me all the time that it is overheating the overheating warning then goes off... It hasn't said it has overheated just simply "drive moderately". I have replaced the thermostat and to my knowledge bled the system as I got all...

    Evening all I've been trawling the internet after deciding it's about time I change my plugs. I've decided after compiling a list as long as my arm of planned mods I might as well shift to iridium plugs one step colder now. Only problem being NGK don't seem to offer plugs for the n18 engine just...

    Well, after some thinking and a few mods I've started modifying my '06 JCW R53. Big mods started some weeks ago when I ordered the 4-2-1 with 100 cells cat to Mini Motorsport UK. I also got the 225hp remap soon to fit a camshaft. Hope to get after that around 235-240hp. Dry battery's been...

    As project orange was completed, I have decided to start a new thread around my car showing where it started, what it looks like now and what my future plans are. This is less of a project and more of an ongoing thing. Its a 2004 facelift MINI Cooper S. I was bitten by the modding bug after a...
