I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Mini Cooper Powered By What??

Post by Teaks92HB » October 22, 2007

I'm just curious to know what you guys think about the Mini Coopers with the B series swaps?? I personally think it's pretty bad ass. . but thats me..

And anyone know of any other swaps Honda motors have been put in, and is it possible to make a go-cart with a d series?????

I've heard that the old Coopers w/ Bseries are seriously fun cars.

Alot of people build sand rails with bseries powerplants.

I'm sure you could build a go-cart with a Dseries. Would be a ton of fun if you got it to work out. I still want a shifter cart.

I hope the swap isn't in one of the newer style mini's, because as a crash safety feature, the stock engines detach so it doesn't go through the firewall and squish you.
