HAHA - an oldie but a classic! "Out of the way, sheep shagger!!"

I dont think it is the box - it could be a multitude of other things though. I had a rattle in mine that I thought was a bearing about to depart this plane. Found out it was the oil filler cap that was loose... Look at the simple things first as it is usually the simple things that are causing it. I...

There is one of the Subaru SC's on Fleabay at the moment for $375 I think. I was tempted to grab it for the mini as it is designed for up to 1.0 litre or motorbikes.

Would give the Mini a good 30 percent increase in power...most of the mini crowd are doing the SC-12 road.

Ahh yes - supply and demand coupled with the have and have-nots...what is the price of a piece of string really and what are you prepped to pay! All aside - Fleabay has been turning up some treasures of late - grabbed a set of scorpions off the Trading Post for $450(set of 6!!) and camre with 10 per...

Good luck over there - Austin is fantastic but watch out for their steaks - they deep fry them instead of grilling them!!!

You will love the place as the people are the friendliest I have ever met.

Keep in touch on AUSUBARU - convert them to your will!

Hooroo

Ditto - done all the above also without success. I feel like a leper as it tells me I dont have permission...I feel so unloved!!!:p

Hooroo

Goggle Army Reserves, and don't believe a word that recruiters say, unless it is in Black and White!!!! Hmmmm - want to qualify that to an actual recruiter?? Integrity and honesty is a very important trait for recruiters and I think that it is pretty generalised statement there...:rolleyes: Call th...

:( I was on way home yesterday the car was running well. I turned a corner and the car just seemed to splutter out like if I ran out of fuel. i still had half a tank, I check all the usual things anyway turn the engine over with the dizzy cap off and found the rotor was not turning. So i guess that...

Wow - deja vu happening here - I am sure there was a thread I replied to and suggested the fellas at Subaroo in Mitchell...

Ahhh must be the heat!:twisted:

welcome have a 07 myself - no mods so far 'est 1991? - you just made feel old - now off to '...wail on my pecs' Lester Burnham, American Beauty sven Joisus - I was running amok with the Navy in Thailand in 1991 (hmmm ping pong ball anyone??) - liked it so much I am still in the Navy!! Welcome guys ...

Subaroo up in Mitchell is a good place to go. Capital Subaru is not bad either but you get the standard Soob charges too. There is a bloke in Fyshwick who specialises in Jap cars too but his business name eludes me. Try Subaroo in Mitchell - http://www.subaroo.com.au/home.htm Give them a go - they d...

$5k jeebus! You could have an early STI WRX frontcut up and running in a lib for that. Well I would do that but I dont think Mr RTA would appreciate a 2 litre STI engine in a 600kg mini...would be a helluva lot of fun though!!!:-D Just on a side note - the supercharged 1275 minis will give a rex th...

theres also a site in aus that do superchargers...but youll need a spare $2500....just do a turbo conversion. alex Jessus - the mini kit I bought 5 years ago I got no change from $5k Still never connected apart from running in the new motor - 89.2hp for a 1013cc is nothing to sneeze at. Back on top...

They have released another model just recently, it is advertised in the latest issue of Australian 4wd Action and it is a 115 litre/minute instead of the 80 and 110 litre/minute.. Looks like a totally new design to from the picture. I just hate wiring the bastards!! Considering the Mini only has a ...

I have used the DC water pump on the mini for nearly 200,000km and not a hint of trouble. I did remove it when I rebuilt the new engine purely because I have no room left under the bonnet for the plumbing and the pump(I run a 10 inch thermo as well as the water pump and no mechanical fan). The inter...

Gday all - well thanks for all the advice given for tremoval. I went the long way and pulled the lot off and lucky I did - the castellated nut on the lower ball joint had threaded to the extent that it was removed with my fingers - the only thing holding it on was the split pin!!! Very lucky and pro...

Well fair enough and I am all for a free and easy forum but as we all know the states vary far and wide - so sorry to have come across as a bit of a prat so please continue on...I have an air con that has illegal substances in it but for what it is worth, I still keep reasonably cool with it so unti...

Well I use a mob here that do rego checks but are also A/C experts so he just said he would probably decommission it if it wasnt working correctly - his words not mine. As for the manufacturers knowing what they are doing, since when has anyone had confidence in the manufacturer being right! Look at...

Yepp I am doing the oil pump soon but I have used a tin of the stuff from Repco and has stopped the ticking for now. I got some really good advice from the guys at Capital Soob(Bruce is a whip at all things Soob knowledge-wise) and also said that along with the seals, replace the pump rotors with a ...
