Most liked posts in thread: What did you do with your MINI today?

Took my wife shopping in my S. Sloppy, slushy drive...even a bit icy, but those Blizzaks did their usual fine job.

 

Air filter.....

 

After eight and a half years of enduring coffee being spilled onto my passenger side floor mats and having the climate fan suddenly be turned up all of the way, I finally broke down and removed the stupid and ugly OEM cup holder. For the record, I found that WD-40 works much better than rubbing alcohol at removing the sticky tape residue from the down tubes. Ordered one of these Product Page | BMW Mini cup holder to house the travel mug on future commutes...

 

Nice picture and for a good cause...

Hah... So it does rain in California...

 

Last week's C3M GroundHog Day run was called on account of weather. Had it today instead... 20+ cars thought the twistys of Frederick and Thurmont, MD.

 

So now you are on the list of all of us who are scrambling to get our cars fixed, built, or done before the Dragon...

Hopefully your insurance handles it fast!

 

Wtf look where you are going. :lol: Your car will be fine Savvy.

 

Put 450 miles on the black one yesterday going to and from all places.....the

beach (in Feb). Just got a wild hair, it actually was a nice long day.

 

Mine is going on soon.

It's cheaper to budget for a new damper than a new engine.

 

Installed the springy-grippy-thingy I found in the auto salvage yard yesterday.



I may go back for the almost new drilled/slotted rotors I saw on the side impact R56-S.

 

It was sunny and clear here today, but too cold to enjoy any outdoor activities. Fortunately, the heat works in my mini. I went for an enthusiastic 200 mile drive through the foothills. Here's my car at the top of Pilot Mountain.

 

Like everybody else, I am into a certain amount of aftermarket stuff in pursuit of better performance. The Pulstars are one of those aftermarket items I have found to make higher performance (when they aren't flawed) so, compared to all of the other major after market performance things people do that create problems, this is pretty minor.

In other words I get a lot of bang for the buck with virtually no downside. Just have to make sure I get them gapped and installed properly.

I have them in my supercharged Buick Park Avenue, as well, and can really tell the difference in throttle response and overall power. In factory tests they produce anywhere from 3-10% more torque and more HP.

As you can see, I like supercharged engines - both cars have them. No turbos for me.

 

WOW...that's a long time in between washes and waxes. :arf: You must have a state of the art group of cleaning agents....:ihih:

 

I'm sitting in the Porker playing some Lindsey Sterling off my phone as loud as it can go, for my whole lunch break.

 

It probably wants to go do some lurid e-brake slides, give the gnat what it wants sir

 

Anson....

Try and get Nathan to tell you what he was in and what he was doing yesterday....:crazy:
