[leon920419]

0:12 Vtec kicked in yo!!! :D

[fatasdat]

this would be a weapon... nicework

[kyleisreallycool]

now put a rising sun on the roof.

[mudhut02]

nice motor mate and nicely done so you can actually use it day in day out sweet job

[rs200000000000]

nice looks really clean sounds great too

[bladester100]

wish people would understand the difference between flywheel hp and @ the wheel hp ... its realy annoying when ppl post up claiming stock flywheel hp on there car (which i doubt it has) and compare it to this vid which is at the wheels hp ..shakes head

[maillet420]

@bladester100 Well at the wheel .... It asnt the wheel on . So its not even whp. Coz you know that the wheel weight and diameter can change a whole lot thing in a dyno run and putting power to the ground... Anyway i totally agree with your comments that most people think the numbers a company claim for their stock cars are actually whp but its at the flywheel yah!

[lgnrogers]

@bladester100 also shakes head

[MrCodyLuv]

what suspension steup is on this and are those austin mini brakes/hubs but upgraded obviously?

[d1rps1]

@MrCodyLuv - The suspension is original mini geometry with uprated and adjustable camber/caster arms. Coil springs are used in the front instead of the original rubber cones and the brakes are MG metro vented discs with metro 4pot callipers.

[wh0ukn0w]

Awesome mini, i can't imagine how fast that thing is with a B18, nutty!

[TheMega9700]

somthing is wrong there mate because b18c4 has standard 170 bhp and b18c6 type r has 180 bhp so how con you only have 163 bhp and you say its tuned, so you have tuned it down then?

[bladester100]

@TheMega9700 his stats of 163bhp is at the wheels not the flywheel ..

[danny675rider]

@bladester100 its to the brake on the wheels just saying

[49sled]

Keep up the good work.. FTW

[eg8matt]

163=fail!

[sausageslaps]

wow all that motor and stuff up front, the fenders and hood are just wrapping paper around that setup

[Wihapz]

as well your car may have big power figures but theres alot more to consider ive drivin a standard type R integra with b18c and easily beaten wrx stis evos and pretty much all else that isnt heavily modified so a mini with this motor will tear you apart no questions asked granted he can get the power to the ground in traction.

[tykyca]

Don't know if you know this, but AWD CRV tranny's match all B18 series engines. I believe minitec offers this kit as an option... droooooooool

[peewee10000]

Standard B18 all the way. You could do moon and back miles without it missing a beat. Im running a stock B16 in a sh*tbox of a metro and Ive done 6 trackdays from start to finish including driving it there without any trouble(cursed it now!) Turbo=Early finish when everything goes pop.

[d1rps1]

As the builder of this car, the reasons for leaving a stock engine were both driveability and aesthetic based. This car still uses the mini front suspension to ensure the 'mini feel' is still retained. Hence, the mini CV joints have their limitations regarding how much torque they can handle. Secondly, more power=more torque steer=less drivable and finally, a standard clubman nose cone is used - there isn't room for a turbo without modifying the front and/or moving the radiator to the boot

[donvitolover182]

um why did u spend all that money in putting a b18c in ur mini and not build the engine first? 163whp aint shit, hell my single cam turbo is runnin 350whp and its in a 91 hf. which im just guessing cant weigh a whole lot more that that mini

[wasabigun]

Good for you buddy

[donvitolover182]

woa woa woa, back up. im not talkin shit, im just sayin ur ganna drop all that money in it u might as well build the fucker so you can get better numbers. thats all. its a nice mini-tec tho

[de3660]

mini 640kgs CRX 910kgs. that is a massive difference, but without proof you're just talking junk.

[orange618m]

Are you on Crack? This thing will Flyy and out corner and out brake most things on the road. Your wank Single cam turbo probably has that much Turbo lagg it takes 5 minutes to get going. If you dont like it Suck on a fat one!

[donvitolover182]

lmao i kno the thing is fast but why not go all the way if ur ganna spend that type of money. shit go big or go home. oh and i have very little turbo lag. its tunned to a fucking T

[jerk86]

ok you noob....theres this thing called power to weight, and theres this thing called liking honda motors but hating all the stupid rice cars the go in with there gay ass teddy bears hanging off the back. i would take a stock b18 in a mini anyday over a new built si or somethin

[donvitolover182]

lmao ur retarded. i drive a 91 hf, not some new ep3. u litteraly make no sense, comming out of left feild with some teddy bears in the back of cars shit

[badSTI]

yeah man, your awesome........

[CatmanSnoopy]

@donvitolover182 Because no one would think that this mini have 163.3 Hp! And btw every one can turbo his car but not anyone can vtec his mini....

[MrButterneo]

@donvitolover182 dont ever compare a turbo car with a NA car stupid !

[gokuman63]

@donvitolover182 bro take yr turbo out and then c wat happens its a diffrent type of build its na not turbo any 1 can get 300hp frm bolting on turbos na is better as its the whole engine not just turbo

[JessEkaTehBest14]

@gokuman63 Agree, his engine is NA, besides look at the power to weight ratio - standard mini weight is around 650kg and the b18c4 puts out about 180bhp (at the flywheel) so were looking at close to 300bhp/tonne (if you take the flywheel hp) and that's on a standard engine - if he decides to go turbo his mini will shit all over your single cam - and probably use a shit less fuel while doing it

[redghost105]

@donvitolover182 because fuck you thats why

[llelica9]

nice i love to take that for a drive light as hell much be real quick

[PedroTypeR]

what is that color code? Its a sicking blue!

[miniduds]

awesome hp figure pal. I take it you have an extended flip front? which subframe kit did you use?

cool car
