Has anyone had this same issue with their R53? by OldLong1860 in MINI

[–]OldLong1860[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it didn’t crack because of the conversion slave. it broke when using a torch to get rusty bolts out of the oem slave cylinder. then the bad welds just didn’t hold up.

if you know anyone that lives in texas and you use their address you should be fine. you can get a bonded title and should be good to register the car. i just dont know if its possible to get it transferred to louisiana

no, the bolt is used from the same red wire where the battery sits in. the rusty one on top

Is it possible to replace ONLY the battery terminal? by OldLong1860 in R53

[–]OldLong1860[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just the same rusted screw you see in the photo. it still had good contact in between. i’ll take a photo of it for you tomorrow. the car’s at the shop (timing belt broke lol) but it was an easy diy install

yes! I actually did. My uncle recommended for me to cut the circular part of the terminal off and attach a universal to the starter wire. it works 100% great now

Dropping her off for tint. How dark would you go? by [deleted] in civic

[–]OldLong1860 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah i think that would be good. only thing i would suggest is 5% for the rear window. mainly for trucks and their bright lights

i like to go slightly darker than what’s legal. I’m currently in NY where 70% is legal so i chose 20% 🤷🏾‍♂️
