    Finally! Another Northern NV Mini in one of the many forums. Now to get you involved with the Sierra Nevada Minis car club. Check out their website Sierra Nevada Mini Coopers

    Any info for the garage portion of this site? Pics are nice. Any upgrades installed or planned?

    Hey Oldbrokenwind! I am actually a member already and have been on several runs including the Mini Mania, Topaz Lake and Nevada Day Parade Yesterday! No upgrades yet but plenty planned. Starting with Vinyl Stripes I am installing today, new water temp/boost/oil pressure gauges coming next. Then looking into performance upgrades!

    So much for my memory! I should have remembered your car from the Topaz Lake run --- I missed the other two. Hope to see you again at Rod's Xmas party, if not sooner. Have fun installing your new gauges. Don't put the coolant sensor in the wrong hose --- the easiest one is the wrong one, it only flows during "over temp" conditions --- on the '07 R56. Suggest warming it up and feeling the various hoses to find the hot one, then install the sensor. I found out the hard way, and installed it twice --- pain in the butt! Lots to learn if you're new to the Mini world. Send me a PM if you want an extra hand.

    Thanks a lot for the offer! I will definately take you up on that but it will probably be after christmas before I have any "Mod money". See you at the Xmas party!
