1st Gen R53 Cooper S I present to you the first ever R53 Active Aero Air Brake

That is pretty interesting.

Helix Wildebeest Bugatti Edition?

 

I see two air brakes. Mine has the one on the side like yours, but not the rear one. It would be interesting to see what the brake temps are with & without the aero brake. Cool stuff!

 

I just pop the bonnet.

Much cheaper.... once

(seriously, that's really freaking cool!)

 

Very nice.... You a hunter?

 

Hey Chuck. How many of those aero brakes can you make up with your sheet metal break before Mark's tour? I need mine in Alpine White.

 

With fedders?

I like his ingenuity....

 

Fedders would be cool. Although my MINI being chased by a coyote is kind of worrying.

 

Rating this on the guy coolness quotient, this is off the scale!

I heard a woman's voice in the background asking "Is the car that fast that you need that?" They just don't understand.

 

Impressive!

 

That's just way to F-ing cool. Nice job man!

 

That R53 is killer!

 

Give it 6 months to a year... M7 will copy it, and claim its the only one like it...

 

Or ALTA will copy it and it won't fit or work.:lol:

 

Don't you have to be in Super Pursuit Mode for that to be able to work? (Who's old enough to know about that?)

Looks awesome!

 

Great job! Did you use Firgelli Automation for the actuators?

 

I find this interesting Crash. You don't believe that splitters, aero devices or wings, do any good unless you are at racing speed, yet you like this. Could you explain?

Jim

 

If I might..."like" does not = "does any good". The other stuff just sits there posing. This moves up & down! Cool!

 

Only works when you need it. Plus it keeps my brake pads from exploding into flames. Plus makes my MINI look a Mercedes 300 at LeMans. Plus gives you something to ponder. :smilewinkgrin:
