Hi,
Another Cork based member here. I learned to drive in my first car, a 1976 Mini 850 many moons ago which ended up with a 1,300cc Metro engine by the time I was finished with it. Now, years later I had the opportunity to get a 2004 Mini Cooper S as a [s]second[/s] third car, so delighted with it! Some of you might recognise my username from some of the BMW forums, my other cars are 2007 BMW M6 (507bhp) and a 1996 320i vert.
I've been tipping away at some cosmetic and service items and I've made great progress in the last 3 weeks of ownership. However I need someone to do my front control arm bushes as my removal tool is not the right size. I'm also interested in hearing about people's experience with the 15% reduced size super charger pulley. How much? Who fitted it? How does it impact the longevity of the car? Is the extra power noticeable?
Looking forward to getting involved!
