and trust me, downtown slc is far from liberal by rational standards. you should be fine in ut county. enjoy the dream

will do. i have a friend whos a somewhat accomplished driver who is going to help her. i think it will look funny being towed on the gooseneck trailer :rofl:

i need have some tech. my build was SERIOUSLY dragging. i was >< close to buying coilovers for it last week, and then came to my senses. gotta finish the big blue pig........

Actually, Jenn has autocrossed in the past and has been hinting that she wants to get it out to miller park. I'm totally game for that when it happens, which will have to wait until december;)

funny, i always regarded toyota products as about as exciting as a kitchen appliances:p

The only other car we were looking at when we chose the mini was an Acura RSX-S. They are fun cars to drive and they are rock solid reliable and handle great. They also make great girls cars as well;) I'm a sucker for a 3dr hatch.

that's it. never seen anything like it before.

saw it on the way back through provo monday. had UTV suspension and tires on what looked like a mini old-school toyota van body. sorry for the crappy cellphone pic

from what you've posted above, it may not be a wise choice to take on ownership of a mini. OEM parts are BMW and cost accordingly. IMHO, I would ditch the libby and get into a wholesale cherokee until you are in a place to get into something that you want.

I would call the mini dealer and have them run a vehicle history check on it. I was relieved when i got mine. most of the major stuff had already been addressed during the warranty period.

As a turn of events, the jeep build has put a hold on buying parts for the mini. I've been looking for a good cat-back system for it and most seem to run around 600.00. Pretty steep for such a small car! In the meantime, I still wanted a little more sound out of it and stumbled onto the...

thanks for the words of encouragement surprisingly, my neighbors are really cool. ive been here for five years and had all sorts of jeeps, trailers and cars parked in front of my house. they've also tolerated the noise coming from the garage in both musical and mechanical form. I keep the...

Looking damn good Kyle. It appears you'll be in need of some DOM for those lower links soon;)

yes

consider jenn on rme by proxy:p The question should really be. "does Jenn know what you're doing to her mini?" The answer will be no, since she is a bit oblivious and doesn't check RME.

With the help of a few good friends i was able to make a little more progress on the teardown today:cool: once kiel and i tossed the cage out, jenn got to work vacuuming about three pounds of texas and utah cedar needles out of the tub. removed the rockers and fenders. hooray for...

sure, but i believe you may have some things i need for my build. are you up for some horse trading;)

well, the goat's fate has been decided. next week it will be getting shipped off for some tubework. all that will remain of the body will be the firewall, floor, and hood. i started stripping all of the BS out of it today. ill have a little more help tomorrow and should have the cage out...

he's got some pretty good ideas:cool:
