Hi all,
You guys are really MINI kakis. Really admir ethe knowledge that your have on the MINIs. I will join your forum more regularly once I manage to buy a good running condition one and start building it up. Any recommendation, am willing to fork out between 6k-10k if it is the right car. Have been shopping around. Cherrio........

welcome, cchoi.
my 2 cents would be to get someone who knows minis to check your intended purchase out or recommend one. i hv come across many would-be mini fans who after a while get frustrated to the point of swearing off minis. they buy a poorly maintained one and then get bogged down with repairs and breakdowns. you should buy one that would allow you to enjoy driving it, and that would make you stay loyal to it! ;)
i hear skyline wants to sell his mini. try pm him.
n dont forget to say hi to twistedangel, who minicooper is pushing for the presidency of zth mini club! i am in full support!

twistedangel,
I stay in Ampang area. My wish is to buy one that is reasonably OK, ie running condition and get someone to build it up. Totally agreed with you that it will be more fun and you are dedicated to make the MINI as beautiful as possible.

cchoi,
welcome to our lil club. Agreed with sureshn, get a car which is decent so that you enjoy the addiction and pleasure of having a mini for a while. The newer rover minis are less of hassle compared to the older one purely because of the age. I am saying this only for items like chasis, subframe, susp components, electrical harness and so on. This does not include the injection setup though. If it works well then u are lucky and enjoy it, but if its not working that well, best to dump the injection and run a carb on it. Its an easier solution as expertise on the Rover MEMS system are not easily found. More ppl/mechs have better experience with carbs, although tuning SU carbs is skill by itself.
Anyway, dont let all this spoil ur mini owning dreams, get one and enjoy the 'little' wonder just like many of us do!
angel,
i think can wat become president! if there is a convoy ur car can be the lead car! waht say u! hehhehee
sureshn,
my car, well i really dont have much hope that it will come out by the 17th. I was hoping so much that it does, but there is still 11 days for a miracle to happen :). The main concern is the wiring, which is still being sorted. As this is a custom loom (contact breakers, hidden wiring and etc) now, there are headaches assorted to it I guess. Just hope that all goes on smoothly. Currently the air-cond is being fitted too and just realized i got to change the crank pulley to accept the double belts. And the crank pulley was dynamically balanced along with the crank, flywheel, clutch assembly and fittings! so changing the crank pulley is just going to upset everything! oh darn it! Quick shift still not installed. Just got a fuel pressure regulator with filter. Apparently it supplements the Weber carb quite well. I have got to wait and see about this though.
minicooper,
when is the next mss? No i am not planning to join, but just wanna come and watch the race? there are quite a number of classic mini's in HK isnt it. There was one always parked in front of my company's HK office. With period roof rack and minilites. Quite nice. Maybe the next time i go there you can let me know who to meet up!

GUYS AN UPDATE .....frm drift.com
Hi guys, i'm thinking of organising a 'slow mo' drift event for front wheel drive cars in January 2005 with trophies to be given away. classes: 'S' (kancil, kenari etc..) 'M' (satria, swift, civic etc..) 'L' (wira, putra etc..) 'XL' (perdana, accord etc..) and also a class for ladies (open). The course will be similar to that of an autokhana but without any reversing and drivers will have to 'drift' around the cones . The surface will be sandy/loose tarmac and points will be awarded to the most 'gaya-ful' drivers . Entry fee is RM 50 for 1 practise + four judged runs.
Venue: either shah alam or bukit jalil stadium carpark. I'm a rally man, so to me there's no subsitute to the real thing . But i feel if we work to combine the elements of rally driving and drifting in an event such as this, it should be fun. I want to encourage regular joe's with regular cars who have irregular skills to come forward and make yourselves known. Also, i've arranged for press coverage so encourage your local work/tyre shops to sponsor u so that in the future we can run the even on a bigger scale .
The judges will be 3 of Malaysia's fwd rally stars. So tell me what u think ? if there's enough interest, i'll go ahead and organise the event. If not, we'll just have to watch the RWD boys have fun. If you'd like further clarification on what i'm talking about, feel free to gimme a buzz at 012-2123260.
-Thanks-

Since i intend to make this event 'user-friendly', I have already suggested that u guys, the competitors, come up with track layouts and we'll decide on which one to use. What the hell, we may even use 6 different layouts throughout the day!
Another idea i've come up with is to have sub-categories. this is due to the fact that i have received some entries from ipoh and penang and while i know they just wanna have fun, i think it's only fair that i make it worth their while. here's my 2 cents worth..
Example: the penang guys have their group called 'TBS'. so if the guys from TBS (minimum 3 entries) were to pool their resources or find a sponsor, they can prepare their own trophies/gifts/hampers/animals/women etc. to be given away. Therefore, there'll be a TBS only category added to the exsisting ones for them to compete in (u still with me on this? ) other examples will include, say..car clubs. V6ers can compete in the XL class along with their own 'V6ers challenge trophy' Still confused ? think of it as an 'event within an event'. ok, say u wanna challenge your next door neighbours...so the 3 of u buy apples for prizes (suggestion only, pls don't offer silly prizes...coz those are reserved for the 'clown of the day' ) and then u compete against eachother and see who comes in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. If u don't have a name for your group, u can always use the infamous one from an 80's malay movie. Tha biker gang in the film were known as the 'kumpulan gagak hitam'! haha..
A really smart thing to do will be to find a sponsor for your sub-category like say 'nasi kandar penang'. 3rd prize: roti canai. 2nd prize: roti sardine. 1st prize: The mamak's daughter (or son, if you're gay!)
So what do u think? feedback pls. Once again, thanks for all your support.
