i'm new to this mini thing! after crashing my Clio 172 and getting a company car. i need summit to entertain my evenings and weekends!!!

just after a few bits of info about subframes for a clubman and the major bits for the conversion, what engine is best? i'm just gonna buy a civic/CRX strip everything i need then brake the rest.

also any problems ppl have come across and how they sorted them.

also any contact numbers for good companies, not on a tight budget so would rather go quality and get it right 1st time!!

thanks in advance

Paul :D

Hi Paul ! Why dont you fit the engine from the 172 - I remember looking at one when I was at a Renault tuner's and thought it didn't look especially large ?!!
As for companies - you'll find most of them in the FAQ's, as for problems however, check just about every post on these forums !! Always plenty of those :lol: !!!

i thought about a 172 block but decided to go with the vtec as it's dare i say more common!! i want summit where i don't have to have every bit made up.

buying 1 take all the fun out of it!!!

Very true ! If you go for one of the kits, its seems the watsons one is currently by far the best, and most complete !
