i think he knew you could not handle the power lmao, must have had another map for friends to drive clever lad he is. Made me smile this video made my day
I think he might aswell have been speaking Chinese for the best part at the beginning to you 😂 ... all jokes aside what a sick mini! Seriously impressive work... can't wait to see what his next project gonna be! Hopefully you'll be able to drive that 1 without any restrictions lol
only thing is, the ride is poorly setup...it needs some Ohlins springs/suspension on it and a proper wheel alignment, you can see the steering was not straight. Great engine and stuff but poor ride quality to utilise all the power...better off just building a EK9 Type-R with turbo...
So they can wrap themselves around a tree even quicker? Don't be silly. Crazy that a 22 year old did this on his own though, should put that skillset to better use.
Stunning conversion!! Level headed guy who built it. Over 660 dislikes, obviously all wannabe boy racers without the money or brainpower to attempt this kind of build!
all he has done is put an engine and added wheel arches, in the 70s we de seem them and lower the front end of the roof, this is also illegal as he turbo acting as bumper ?? its not a road car no way
@@topbanana4013 umm did you watch the start of the video he mentions outside of the remap/tune and the paint he did everything from modifying the entire body all around including things like the front turbo both intercoolers all the struts support extra work brembo's new rims tires and a heavy race clutch with and pretty sure he also said a limited slip dif and a sequential shifter i think and a rap sheet for engine parts longer then a infamous serial killers victim list and thats just the stuff off the top of my head
oh and lets not forget the spoiler insane cutting work entire interior redo entire back section which would take its own listing dedication at least 10 huge engine mods and counting all the fab work for said motor setup and mods and im sure many tuned changes to help with braking balance and weight distribution and he said theres still more to be done
Ricky's character really makes this channel. Getting carried along at 140's in an 80's British Leyland missile and he sits there as cool as James Bond. "It's fast innit?" You won't get programmes of this quality on terrestrial telly kids, so subscribe and hang on tight... Ricky, thank you Sir.
This young man can be proud of that nutty little car. As an exercise in engineering it's a great piece of madness that makes life worth living, So all you thumbs-downers, go and watch 5th Gear instead.
you have to concentrate really hard driving a car like that, being so light no matter how long you've been driving it. if there's a small steering wheel jerk that's it you're dead
Swear this guy looks like he's shitting himself in every one of these serious build videos he does. Look like you wanna check your life insurance is in order before you get in the car.
I have nothing but respect for this geezer ,,he really knows his shit about his car and he's done a shit hot job and he's very mature ,,the total opposite to me when I was his age !
Your content is top class man. You should have at least 100k more subs. And props to that guy. So young and doing a crazy build like that. Crazy crazy car.
This is one of my best videos so far Ricky. I laughed from start to finish, you gents looked like you had good fun. We all enjoy cars and are enthusiast, but this lads dedication is to another level.
22 yrs old and you have created this. Love inspiration like this and gives me drive and determination to keep on with my own build even when things seems shit with it and I feel like giving up. Cheers bro. Love it
That for me so the best video ever. That lad is a somethig else ! Nice one. Never seen someone so focused at that age. Ricky this is up their mate, sick sick sick video. Thank you to the Owner aswell
Haven't laughed out loud at a car review so hard in ages wicked video Oli my man I hope you get the recognition you deserve for this build and hope you for far in the world of car building!
That wouldn't be too hard tho. What they were doing in the earlier episodes before they got help from legit shops and mechanics were pretty janky and questionable. Especially a lot of the wire work, yikes
Not in respect to driveability . I think it's got to much power, and the subframe that Mighty Mods used was a much better set up than trying to mod up the standard mini subframe to hold 300 + horsepower. There's a limit to power and handling, and without proper chasis consideration this guy is just going to crash, meanwhile the Mighty Mods mini could probably reach 200 hp quite easily just naturally aspired, have a better weight distribution, and hold corners much better than this. This young man has done a great job, and it looks cool, but he can't plant that power reliably to the ground, and he looks concerned driving it.
Nice work! We used to have a ball in Minis back in the day. Extremely direct in both handling & response to input, and most of the feel for the car came through your bum & your ears. A good Mini in the right hands has the scariest passenger seat I've ever found! Thanks for re-kindling some eye-popping memories!
A proud POM, just AWESOME. This is what young guys should do, instead of shitty politics and religion. People like this make the world go around and a better place. Thanks for sharing
Louie 9000 Ha Not at all dude! 😂 Way off. I’d like all links to go to Ollie for building such an epic car! My vid was just a quick fun edit, Ricky is a pro and that’s exactly why I got them in touch with each other to do the car justice! This feature is 10x better, shots, sound, fun, info etc not a rip off at all 😎👍🏼 I’ll hopefully be seeing Ricky in my T4 soon anyway! 🔥😎👍🏼
@@SpeedingTube Thanks for clearing that up with straight facts mate. That Monster Mini needs it's own show absolutely loved it (looks and sounds sick!)
BLKMediaTV - UK Yea its such an epic build. With AWD & 500bhp+ next year it will be crazy but the 2JZ race Mini he’s going to build...no words. Most people saying 2JZ Mini I’d laugh at. Every car cruise/show/Maccy D’s carpark has “that guy” saying next year...blah blah. But with Ollie you know it’s actually legit! 😂 Top bloke too!
Clever kid and mechanically minded. Schools need to teach more of this as the world needs more kids like this. Passionate about his hobby too. Well done! Stay safe driving that mini monster!
Man , that kiddo did such an awesome job on his build. Really cool seeing a 22 year old , have that much skill and passion to build it. Super impressive!
LLF, your reaction to everything was golden. Especially when you tried to turn but gave up and said let's just got straight. 😂😂😂. Good vid, keep it up!
Telling you mate, cant wait for you till get big subs and make a good living out of this game. Nobody deserves it more, been here since 15k and genuinely cant say i have disliked any video at all. I actually think this video is my all time fav you both smashed it! ....... that car is something else haha
much more interesting than modern boring same old German cars....that everyone's got! built not bought :) more content like this please big up your chest Ricky good video
My take is that BMW/AMG etc. engineers are far more qualified and have far more experience, facilities, equipment and investment available to engineer a performance car than one 22 year old.
stephen john gray In what way is the newer Mini crap ? The old one was well past its sell-by date and BL would have replaced it years earlier if they had had the money. Dying in a crash that’s survivable in modem cars is not acceptable.
Where do you find all these lovely owners? Honestly I don’t have time to watch tv or films however all I watch is simply pure living life fast!! Best videos on TH-cam. Forget everything else! We need more of these mix bag videos.

YA GOT IT COVERED nah
only a remap
22 years old and he's already built this monster, he's got mental talent. And with plans to go way further!!! Defo one to keep an eye out for!!!

Im a youth today and would love to do something like this. Ive kinda done something but with my uncle so I didn't do it myself.
only thing is, the ride is poorly setup...it needs some Ohlins springs/suspension on it and a proper wheel alignment, you can see the steering was not straight. Great engine and stuff but poor ride quality to utilise all the power...better off just building a EK9 Type-R with turbo...
I'm a time traveller and its funny how I saw this same comment on 1912 magazine.
So they can wrap themselves around a tree even quicker? Don't be silly. Crazy that a 22 year old did this on his own though, should put that skillset to better use.
Now this lad deserves a ‘built not bought’ sticker.. So impressive..
Stunning conversion!! Level headed guy who built it. Over 660 dislikes, obviously all wannabe boy racers without the money or brainpower to attempt this kind of build!
Or the only thing they can afford is a toy car.

Gotta rate the fact that you’re doing vids on different (non-German) cars too. Gotta keep the diversity up
Right. Never thought I'd see a classic mini on this channel tbf

Jealous fuckers are everywhere and especially here on YT !
I gave the vid a like but if I were to give it a dislike, it would be because of the silly looking rear spoiler.
TheRattleSnake3145 Stupid on some cars but this one actually needs it..
“That was 140... nah don’t be silly that wasn’t 140” I’m glad the kid got the hint 🤣
We need a video of this car once the 4wd conversion is done if it already isn’t!!! 🙌🏻
likewise
there quite a few 4x4 minis in subframe in us using the crv box and running gear
What we saying rickster
Man looks like he’s scaring himself driving it.
Yeah i thought that
Thats exactly how it looks
That's what ye want
Yeah :/
you have to concentrate really hard driving a car like that, being so light no matter how long you've been driving it. if there's a small steering wheel jerk that's it you're dead
This is crazy as is! I couldn't imagine 500hp awd. Madness! Great car and nice video Ricky.
defs needs awd
It does not it adds weight and complexity to the car
Jaden, imagine 500hp evo rwd.. Wouldnt be the same car.
Well you need a good set off tyres and a good driver behind the wheel
"Good driver" Have you tried full throttle bwd with 500hp on roads?
Nice, one young gun making Ricky scared. Great shots man, love the transitions.
So if we crash we’re dead right?
Pretty much, tin can 😂😂😂

dude knows his shit. brilliant build. looks shit scared every time he floors it tho and i cant blame him
Love the turbo sticking out the grill. Wonder if that helps cool the exhaust side a bit more which in turn helps in adding less hot charged air
Thats not a turbo its the air filter
