    Another winter is over and the mini continues to evolve... a Stoptech Trophy Race BBK replaced the Wilwood setup and I am now using 17x8 Team Dynamics with 215/40 Z2* and 225/40 R7. Installing the old Wilwoods on a buddy's mini that is sticking with street tires and DEs so should be perfect for his use.

    Looks like it will be warm enough to wash this car this weekend so I can get some updated pictures.

    Still left to do is: change oil and filter, install new hood scoop (old one took a rock to the face), plus a new belt/tensioner/idler pulley combo. Shouldn't be too bad but the daily driver developed an oil leak and my motorcycle needs a service too so it will be a crowded garage!

    Parts that I want to order:
    RMW Expansion Tank
    Powergrind Endlinks

    But if those 2 don't get sorted before April 18th (first event I plan on doing with the mini) no big deal.
