No problems, some like music some don't 👍

Thanks for the comment. You don't really need to program it (no coding) but you do need to set the correct inputs, set the values for 0v and 5v readings etc. it has a GUI for all of that. Once it's all done you can start to.build what it looks like it or use the pre installed templates.

Cheers mate. Thanks for that.

Digital dash is by Powertune Digital. It is essentially a Raspberry Pi, touchscreen, with custom software installed.

@ ahh okay as was just thinking installing my iPad and Bluetooth away

Cheers mate.

Cheers, I started it a long time ago and with a lot less experience.

Love it, such a fun car to drive. Even when things go wrong, once you are back in and driving it's worth it 😁

Hi there. I gave them a scuff up with wet and dry, filled up with an etch primer for chrome and then normal prep and paint with 2k. I would have done black chrome ideally but was time poor on this build. It has held up really well considering.

Cheers for the comment. No I don't have a tilt lock. I made it the same as.it was when stock. Not sure what year the tilt locks came in, for Australian Minis.

I have a big piece of paper that says im a Mech Engineer...But I am a more of a tinkerer :)

@@MyModdedMini,loved the video ,Bonza

Cheers mate 🍻

I have done the foam in my stock mini seats and it wasnt too bad. Just need to go slow I think. I have not seen how the Cobras are put together, would be worth checking it out yourself next time, you could do it. I just went for a spin around the peninsula and yes they are very comfortable.

Thanks again, I am very happy with them.

That is a great story, thanks for sharing, love it :) People forget that these were the cars people drove every day for a long time.

It sounded like you were speaking from experience haha, thanks for the tip. I was looking at the Spartan 3 lite. It gives a 0-5v output which is what i need for it to talk to my digital dash and you can get it with the Bosch sensor or an ADV one which they say is better again.

@@MyModdedMini I mean either or sensor will work, if you're gonna get a bosch 4.9 lsu then T.I performance is the cheapest for literally the same thing from other companies, paid around 150 or maybe a bit less.

Thanks mate..let me know if you see me cruising around. As for the tow hooks, I made them, no drilling required 👍 I'll do a video up of how I made them.

Thanks for that. Are you a spray painter? It was prob the most intimidating part I did (not being a spray painter). I just watched lots of UA-cam 😅

@@MyModdedMini nope :).. half the fun is learning.. My daughter is already not fussed about the finish as its her car, and its something she is building with me, which she thinks is more important.. so.... we shall give it a go :)

Love that 😁 I watched heaps of @PaintSociety I did 2k gloss over base and really happy with it for a home job.

@@MyModdedMini thanks ill give them a watch!! I'll put some via up of my channel

Good to hear John :)

Yeah I have it covered in sound deadening, which is good but it's not magic. You still only have a piece of steel, sound deadening, and a piece of fabric. And probably not too much acoustic engineering in the build haha. I have seen people put AC in but I didn't want to sap the power or add the complexity. Cheers.

Cheers mate, I use Photoshop, but any image editor that lets ytou work with layers would work. This one is essentially the green gauges as bars behind the overlay which has transparent sections to show through.

yeah, I did the block, head and transmission all together. It is in a 2k red and has held up pretty well so far.

No probs, I'd be happy to help, the main things I have learnt over the years of building dashes and audio setups, is to make sure it is maintainable. The one now is awesome, a few screws and it all comes out to get to the wiring behind.

More to come!

Thanks TallGuy :) I might be doing a "cruising around talking" video this weekend - Hope the weather is nice.

Sound like a great idea, I might put something together. Things like driving out yesterday afternoon and the steering goes because I've stripped the spline in the inner column....as for legal issues, my mods are ergonomic and still use mini parts mostly, and I tried to do everything I can to comply 👍

Any time you are around, let me know 👍

Yeah for sure 👍 I've done it a few times using the ratio and found it hard to get an accurate measurements under the car so now I get it close and then set, check, set, check, set....maybe I might make a "go, no-go" gauge, next project idea 💡

G'day Chux, cheers mate. It is a GPS sensor, I have asked the developers if they would incorporate a gearbox electronic speedo mode. I think I did see another owner that modified the code even further to accept that kind of hall effect signal (it ir really just a counter) but it has never been an issue so far, until I go into a Melbourne tunnel. They should all have the green speed lights that race along the sides like the southbound city one does :)

Cheers mate, yeah it is pretty good. There are some teething issues that aren't as slick as if I had an ecu but they weren't a thing in 69'. I'm looking at getting an AFR sensor next so I can DIY tune a bit more accurately.

I have had that too mate, (better than having them seized on in my opinion) my fix is winding the adjusters out so that it can't drop too much when you take the weight off. I also make sure its all aligned when I lower it down and then rock it to settle it in. I know a guy that makes the rods with springs in them so that it always has a bit of tension when the weight it off. Might have to have a better look next time I see one.

Just check the rod length. This was happening on my project and turns out the rod was the incorrect one for the hi-lo so was about 40mm too short. Correct matching rods and problem solved.

Thanks for that, it is the Toyota Magnetic Grey 1G3. I picked it because its my daily driver, when I pick up stone chips its easier to find a pen to do the touch up.

Cheers :)

Glad you enjoyed :)

Thanks @chux007 - I though tit would be cool to see for people that don't know how awesome a Classic Mini suspension is :) I had one part when the tyre knocked the camera turning right so that was a bit of a moment haha

@@MyModdedMini haha that would have sounded expensive! I went over a speedhump in my clubman once and the wheel scrubbed on the connector for the heater intake hose, sent it flying and made a horrible noise. Fixed now though :)

I saw the POV move on my livestream to phone so pulled up and fixed it (and then took it easy on right handers for a bit). Yeah there is a surprising amount of travel in the front, need to keep everything tucked up.

Thanks Chux, yeah, if I had an OG Cooper S or something like that - or if I had the coin to have one parked up in a trailer somewhere, I would probably keep one original. For me the spare on the back was because of the audio setup I built year ago and then decided to keep it. I just love cars and how varied they are, like a work of art, they won't all appeal to everyone :)

Thanks James. I'm also impressed with my wife ;) It was bright yellow 2k as well so not easy to get off. I set it up on a rotisserie, and she would drag it out a weekend, wire wheel until she was getting pins and needles in her hands and then roll it away :) while looking after the three kids...

Sure thing, do you want the actual building of the dash or the electronic setup?
