    Don't apologise for the music. It's your channel, do what you like. No one is being forced to watch it. Also be aware that there's another channel out there with a multi video series on engine swapping a Mini, which involved extensive bracket fabrication...

      Yes, another channel that the quality of the brackets and the funk out music are amazing!!! ;-)

    Started with Binky, then Watched Jeff put a Ferrari V8 engine in a Alfa Romeo, currently watching a Irish chap put a Complete Boxster under a Metro with a 6r4 Bodykit and now a mini with a Porsche engine and front Subframe👍
    I like your Music on the Last Video but this has a Bit more Chill Vibe.

    • @realdrivercars7734
      @realdrivercars7734  5 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      The driveshafts will stay the same, in the end the rear end is around 15cm wider on each side but with could be slightly reduced with different offset/width wheels.

    What a project.your mad as a bag of spiders 😂. I've been pondering a similar project but the project car is a mitsubishi mirage coupe. Just wondering why didn't the 16" alloys work?

    • @realdrivercars7734
      @realdrivercars7734  5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Project is designed with 16 or 17” in mind. Bigger is not possible. All is dependent on the circumference of the tire, any bigger and it would not be able to steer plus look even more comical for proportions. In the end, this tire size and 17” wheel were about the smallest circumference you could get for 16 or 17 inch wheels

    • @ciaranboyle311
      @ciaranboyle311 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I agree bigger than that would look a bit silly on a
      mini.being honest I think 16"
      would look better than 17"

      Great Project he is building. I wanted to keep it as much as possible a mini and mini shell... if possible! It will be similar to the Z-cars bike engine conversions in that the main part of the shell is kept and it is not a silhouette racer. I would have kept the front subframe but wheels and brakes would not be big enough and the proportions would have been very strange.
