sounds great is that all thats been done the 40 webber ?, doing a stage 3 head, kent cam 45 webber, whole exaust to my 1275 probably change the clutch too, should do me until i can afford to do the b16a swap
Hi, i dont think the MOT man tests the loudness of the car in an MOT, but a policeman may stop you if he thinks it is too loud. saying that, i have been stopped before and the policeman said nothing about my loud carbs and exhaust. mines a 1275 engine in a 998 registered mini (hehe) its a 1982 y reg mini! but had a few re-sprays in its time i think. yeah most parts are from another car, hardly anything in my car is original lol shame it has no MOT now, need £500 spent on it to pass!!
I have a dtm exhaust back box on my mini and one other silencer along the car, i was thinking of putting a straight through exhaust on it. Would this be too loud for an MOT. Is yours a 998cc or 1275cc etc. I have a 998cc and was just wondering what the top speed should be? I have that steering wheel aswell, your car must be around the mid seventies unless you got it from another car? I notice you also have a different speedo and rev counter. Any videos outside the car, or some pics?
hey mate ya top speed depends on your final drive ratio...i think the city's had the highest top speed coz they were geared for cruising...what model is ur mini?
it wont matter for the mot but as gwionjones2002 said police may pull you over the other thing is if its not a particularly lairy engine it will have a bad flat spot if its an open exhaust i had that with my 998 when i 1st put a single box centre exit exhaust on it but it was fine when i put an 1 3/4 su carb on it
Great mini! Looks like its either British racing green or the almond green. I have a mini in almond green with white roof. Classic colours for a mini.
thanks! yeah british racing green! with white roof. i am thinking of selling it now as its a bit extreem as an every day car - fiberglass, lack of security, noise etc lol
