The number is 4 Sri 8010 It was black then.I dont know who owns it now.saw the car a year back in colombo in red abd white.I did the 1000cc conversion for it at a cost of SLR 4500then.sold it after using a painfully long one year @SLR70000 I hated Minis for sometime after using it cos of the amount of troubles it gave.never had a good mechanic for it then.
Oh sorry for the delay guys...I was outa cmb!
Exellent idea Sandeepa....go for a mini!
Disk brake conversion is very easy.Now you can buy with subframe at a very low cost.
Disk conversion will take a complete day.(@ normal SL workman speed)
Ajith Hemachandra is the Ideal man for the job.
But he is outa cmb, gone racing N'Eliya wil be bak after Sinhala Avurudu.
Rohith is not handling mechanical conversions but he is the ideal man for the paint n tinkering.
But Sandeepa pal,PS conversion is not recomended as it gives lots of problems after fixing.
I removed the rover aproved kit from my Cooper S, sold to Wijeyananda of Grandpass.But dont buy it!!
Need further help??
The car closer to camera is 1000 modified and other is 998standard.
Rohith sold the standard 998.
His KAD modified spaceframe is in UK.
Rohiths UK race buget is closer to SLR 3million...Pet#o is yet to come up with an offer.
Our loving International race winning driver Rohiths De silvas racing career is in serious doubt as he is yet to find sponsors for this years Uk based Mini series and SL series.
If Rohith failed to participate this years Mini championship in UK,its the end of his international carrer as he will not be allowed to participate in the same class in future.
Due deepen sponsor crisis Rohith was forced to prepared only one car sofar for this year and that car will not match the SL regulations thus ending his Sri Lankan Carrier.
Rohith crowned worlds fastest Mini driver and holding many international wins.
Lets help and hope Rohith Finds sponsors for his International races before his deadline of commitment for Uk falls mid April.
Hi gaya mate...may i spill a few beans about V-Tec Minis in SL
Presently four Minis in SL are getting dressed with V-Tecs....
All kits are from Allspeed UK.Engines were imported from Japan individually and seperately .Want more details??
Yeah thats the place then ! and dont forget the breather filter too.
Try K& N part number F005B4 for breather.Thats the one for A+.
And for your engine, try 1 1/2" HS4 cone type filter.Makes K&N, Pipercross and JR is recomended.
Good luck!
If ur motor is A+ and body shell is Mk5 and above,tryMotorcade -Braybrooke street,they had two ideal K&N filters but bit expensive i guess.try and negotiate!

Yeah they say EVO x will be out for 2008 in 2007,so we have to play a waiting game to see the real EVO X.Lets see what Mivec-Turbo got to say about the new X.
The Car Connection website (TCC) published the spy pics of Mitsubishi's Concept-X, giving us a very good indication as to what the future Lancer-based Evo X will look like. But here are the first pictures of an Evo X mule running at speed at the Nuerburgring in Germany.
The new Evo X will share a platform with the new Dodge Caliber, Mitsubishi's Outlander and Chrysler's next-generation PT Cruiser.With over 300 horsepower, the Evo X will be powered by a four-cylinder turbocharged MIVEC 2.0-liter engine, mated to a six-speed clutchless transmission. Other features include steering-wheel paddle-shift controls, and an improved AWD system.
