Re: Cylinder Head

You should disassemble it, give it a good clean and a valve job.....check the cam for wear unless you've got a new one already. Haven't bought new cams. May upgrade one or both. The shop the cylinder head is at is the one Baron uses. We are waiting for them to tell us what is or isn't wrong with th...

So just a good cleaning and reassembly or rebuild if needed. We figured out what caused cylinder 2 to go, but think cylinder 4 has something to do with the cylinder head.

Cylinder Head

How much does it cost to port and polish a Cylinder Head on an R56 Cooper S? Trying to figure this out to see if it might be worthwhile to do on my new car or just stick with a good cleaning and/or rebuild if needed.

Re: Roof Rack Install

That's reassuring. I just have to ask someone to help me out with the installation and it's good to go. Thanks, Zack! I'm available to help with that stuff. For my car, it came factory installed, like most minis, with these mounting points in the drop rail. My biggest fear was scratching the paint ...

Re: Roof Rack Install

Zack, I want to see how your installation would look like. It's not for my mini but I ordered a Jeep Roof Rack and am currently waiting for its shipment. This will be my first time installing it so I'm kind of feeling uneasy with my skill. It's currently not mounted on the car but the installation ...

It was pretty enjoyable.

Played some board games. Some people went on the brewery tour.

I believe 5 Minis total showed up. Not bad for a little get-together

Re: choking mini

This is on a 2010 Clubman S. I charged the battery to full capacity, installed it into the car. Took it down to put the tester on it at the parts store. I started the car with the tester hooked up, there was a delay on the tester before it moved over to show the alternator as good and charging. The...

I'm conveniently doing a photoshoot at a FavTrip gas station out in that area. I also have some work I have to do taking pictures in Lees Summit so it looks like I may be able to swing by the brewery and hang out with you all.

Re: Project Rocky Build Up

Nine5raptor - we have a brand new Forge FMIC minidave - I'm probably sticking with the Cooper S brakes it has and may just get some better pads. If the discs aren't bad I will keep those. Collin is going to paint the calipers red for a bit color. The JCW brake kit, for the little time I would actual...

For those of you I didn't tell... I'm buying Project Rocky from Collin when it is finished. Already have a sizable down payment on the car and have been talking with him about upgrades to the car, included in the price, and those I'm going to add onto the car outside of our agreement.
