Hi guys. Thought I would post this up here as you are all car enthusiast so thought there might be someone looking for a new toy or just something a bit different.

I'm looking for around $19,000.00 for it.

I have owned the car about 4 years now and have done maybe 15,000kms in it. Have heaps of receipts for service records to show regular (6 Monthly) servicing despite little use. The car has now done just over 76,000kms.

The car is a 1999 Rover Mini Cooper. This shape was made up until the year 2000. My particular car is highly optioned and a very unique vehicle and always gets great comments and people stopping to take photos.

Specs:

* Fuel Injected 1.3 litre.

* Almond Green Paint with off white roof and mirrors

* Factory optioned wider fenders

* 4 speed Automatic (oil pressure driven gearbox can be driven through the gears like a manual)

* Factory optioned full green leather interior and matching green carpets and floor mats

* Wood grain upper door trims

* 4 Driving lights with rare Mini Cooper decal covers

* Sony CD Player with upgraded rear speakers in factory location

* Full upgraded chrome package including exhaust and fuel cap cover

I had the car resprayed late last year as there were a few rust bubbles in the bottom of the doors. I did not replace the factory pin stripes as I wanted to leave that up to the new owner to decide on the look they wanted for the car. I also replaced the roof mounted aerial.

As part of the sale the new owner will receive the following items that are brand new:

* Full stripe kit including bonnet, side pinstripes and decals

* New badges kit front and rear

* New wood grain upper door trims as the originals are starting to wear and crack

The car is due for rego in August so I am happy to negotiate the price with or without. If sold in NSW the car will come with the custom plates which I think really finish the car off nicely. I have been offered money for them previously but they just suit so well I would prefer them to stay with it. Any questions give me a call on 0417 448 343 PM on here.

Enough from me now for the pics:

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
