New forum

Post by BillTheCat »

Introducing the MINI How-To and DIY Help forum!

Some might ask "How is this different from the Mods forum or the Performance forum?" While the Mods & Performance forums are great for discussing the benefits of one part vs. another, etc., we felt we needed a place for folks to post questions & answers for the new MINI.

So if you want to discuss which CAI is best, or ask if you should get a lightened crank pulley to go with your SC pulley, by all means do it in the Performance or mods forums. But when you need to know HOW to install a SC pulley, ask in this forum. And if you perform mods on your vehicle & want to share the experience in an instructional manner, please share that here as well.

Excellent! I was going to suggest you move TampaMCS' how-to sticky here and you've already done it (I should have known! ;) )

Great idea, Bill! I always thought it was a bummer that there was a DIY forum under Classics, but not one for BMW MINIs. Now we have one! Thanks!
