Here's my 1969 Austin Mini Rotary, located in Norway
Converted to RWD with Volvo rear axel, GAZ coilovers, a 1994 13B-REW engine and a N/A 5 speed box
Not a convrsion for the lazy... the bay is a bit crowded!
The engine is stock, except from a single turbo conversion, water/meth. injection instead of intercooler, and Adaptronic ECU.
Just had it in a Dynapack for tuning, and it made 286,5 rwhp at 0.85 bar.
Since it is no more than 650 kg (about 1435 lb) it is quite quick"
