How it started.. CBR--2 by Mini Foo, on Flickr Except it had spotlights and chrome headlight rings, rear light surrounds and scuttle inserts. Obviously they lasted less than a week. After that, off it went to spend a couple of weeks at Millsy's for a Health Check, decoke and a nice eBay hobo intercooler fitted. I worked out it was the same one that a reputable tuner sells for £600, except it was £130. It works. Went on a bit of a spending spree recently..

Wheels-9949 by Mini Foo, on Flickr Wheels-9950 by Mini Foo, on Flickr Wheels-9952 by Mini Foo, on Flickr Wheels-9956 by Mini Foo, on Flickr Hit a snag as we were fitting the front wheels - the tyres were touching the springs. We had spacers available but no longer lugs so the stock wheels had to go back on the front for the time being. Then I got home to find smoke bellowing out of my front passenger side wheel - the brake was binding. Potentially a warped disc Plans? Gonna get it sticking to the tarmac and we'll see from there. The N14 life means forging before we give it more power - I've started saving.

Thats such a great spot, cars looking on point. We have very similar plans, although you have a decent head start.
