Very nice - £18.5k though??
I'm seriously tempted to Honda my Mini which I'm trying to resurrect as a run-around.
£1250 for the subframe and all parts minus the engine, could maybe even get one of those superchargers that Tut has been talking about!

ah, but is that not for the b series Honda engine, as opposed to the k20 going in loti? I'm not keen on most of these kits, IMO there are just too many compromises built in. A mate stuck a vx 1600 8v in his std roundnose last year, the kit was £400 and the enigine + 5 speed box £150. A camshaft change later it was putting out a healthy enough 115bhp with mini suspension and track.
Think the car above's as expensive as it's a minus shell

You are correct it's for the B series engine so I'm guessing no supercharger?

Still good for 195bhp apparently...
The lump that's in it just now should be fun anyway, 1380cc, ported head, 286 scatter cam, just need to get it roadworthy!

Not tut charger anyway, but like you say the dc2 integra engine's 190bhp out of the box with a slip unit
You could always charge the A series

and maybe strengthen the box....

Cool stuff

expensive though.
Not sure if the bottom end would take it!
