Dove sei in Italia?

Ci sono molti Mini Club che dovrebbero essere in grado di aiutare con una maggiore conoscenza locale.

Sto cercando di ricordare in quale città Marco gestiva Mainly Minis.

thank you so much !!! I can also do a search here in Italy! But to improve the exchange from what I understand is very expensive and is of little use? do you have any example in the forum ^?

There are plenty of Mini Clubs there that should be able to help with more local knowledge.

I'm trying to remember which city Marco ran Mainly Minis in.

È il motore o il trans che vuoi aggiornare? Una serie 1275 A può essere costruita con una camma SW 5 e una bella testata per ottenere una buona potenza fino a 5000 giri / min. Ci sono state persone che sanno come aggiornare la scatola automatica 1275. Ho un'unità automatica completa da un mini con specifiche giapponesi. Non faccio automobili quindi è in vendita. Ha guidato bene il motore affumicato. Steve (CTR)
Thanks for the replies! but mine and 1000 how much would a stage 1 cost? but by doing so does the engine also increase? if you find any post on how to update the gearbox let me know!

Is it the engine or tranny that you want to upgrade? A 1275 A series can be built with a SW 5 cam and nice cyl head to make good power up to 5000 rpm. There has been people who know how to upgrade the 1275 auto box. I have a complete auto unit from a Jap spec mini. I don't do autos so it is for sale. Drove fine engine smoked. Steve (CTR)

I doubt the automatic would last long revving over 5,500rpm. Also, I don't think there is much advantage trying to rev over 5,500 with a mini engine the way the camshaft and cylinder heads are designed.

hello everyone I write from Italy! sorry for the translation but i don't know english, so i use google translator!
I am disabled and I have the obligation of the automatic transmission, I am in love with the mini classic, so the only solution is the minimatic.
I wanted to know how to upgrade the engine, because from what I have read and understood on the internet, the problem is that by upgrading the engine you reach more rotations that the automatic transmission does not support because it reaches a maximum of 5500 rpm.
Do you give me advice or tell me who can I contact?
I hope you understand something thank you all
