People keep calling this guy an emotionless douche but how many people are kind enough to give a stranger a joy ride at a car meet. You can also see him smiling at the end
Why is everyone hating on the guy? Seems like a classic introvert to me. Nothing wrong with that. We'd still be stuck at stone age if everyone was an extrovert.
Gotta say the questions they're asking too are all pretty lame tech questions, like come on ask about his craziest story or something interesting, why do we need to know if this guy shifts by sound?
It's just a quiet guy that seems to love his car and knows how to enjoy it. He was very nice to go for a spin showing THE CAR, not trying to put on a show for youtube.
The owner probably didn't want to take this nerd for a ride in the first place. He's nice enough to do it and everyone calls him a douche because he's not an obnoxious vlogger personality. Seriously...
yeah the 1320 guy thinks because its a famous channel he can do whatever the fuck he wants,he comes up to the guy making stupid comments like he always does,he’s annoying as fuck
I like how he casually shift it from the bottom of that humongous gear stick haha, hes confident of his work, he probably put a lot of effort on it, props to him
This x 1000, all the Fast and Furious kidz expecting everything to be pure dudebro cringe should go back and watch another RIP Paul "Extra Crispy" Walker video.
@@DV-zv4ox Its not most you tubers in fact (well maybe). But instead those that choose to comment about the man and not the car, I.E. a vocal minority of morons who enjoy trashing others to make themselves feel better. Some of it i am sure is just light hearted jokes though...
I agree, imo I think people just see conflict in situations where there is none because they’ve had negative associations with similar looking/acting people in their past. It takes real self awareness to look past your subconscious thoughts n feelings and give everyone a fair chance. We have no idea what might be going on in this guy’s life, there’s no fair or legitimate conclusion anybody could come to about this guy from a 6 minute video showing off his car 😑
In the UK we have 3 main types of engine swaps for the Classic Mini Hyabusa, Honda K-Series & Rover K-Series. Also putting a BMW twin cam head on the original Mini A-Series engine is a pretty popular mod.
yeah id say honda B series are way more common than k series hondas. like 20 to 1. im not even sure anyone has done one here in australia yet. im doing a twin cam conversion for my 1293. converting to injection aswell. possibly turbocharging it in the future if i want more power. its got a 1275GT gearbox and a 286 cam on there already but the seals need changing so its sitting there until i get round to converting it. anyway, yes, theres bmw bike conversion kits for both the 8 valve and 16 valve heads. i think its the k100 and k120 engines? cant remember the names.
I’d be stand-offish and quiet too if a couple of complete strangers just bombarded me with cameras, asking a million dumb questions and demanding a joyride
Gotta have a lot of respect for a guy who can build what he wants. Put an engine in a car that doesn't belong there (I've done that myself before) Just because he can. And has lots of fun with it.
Reminds me of when I owned a mini and this one had a Mini Metro 1.300cc engine in it, it was so cool, budgie yellow, black roof also, kitted out with Recaro seats, I was only 23 yrs old and it was the bollox, back in 1986 this was, oh the memories eh.............
Brilliant choice of engine, the seemingly unburstable Busa, brilliant choice of car too. And I love the guys quiet understated reserved manner. You should have been born in England mate. You'd fit in good and proper. Well done!
Cars sick!! To be fair with the Owner, 1 on 1 he's prob. more relaxed and willing to show his Passions (like me).. But ad a crowd to it, 1000's even (1320's filming you) I know I'd be a bit more stiff and stand offish!
Gregory Racing yeah but the starlets weigh a bit more. wonder if he took the starlets heart out and chucked it in a mini. kiwis are bonkers man. they get all the import and road rego laws. so much better than aus.
I just wanted to thank you you have inspired me i'm now taking my GSXer 750 SRAD And putting it into my 64 1/2 special edition Volkswagen bug keep doing what you do bro you inspire people out here you and people with your mindset I love it when people think outside the box I'm gonna make sure I note all props go to you as the inspiration of my build and whenever I show it I'll refer to this video thank you again man God bless
theres far more insane builds than the typical honda engine conversions. im planning a 4WD/AWD, mid-engined Inline/V6 hillclimb and time attack mini. its going to be my next build. im going to take it to the very limit of what is possible with the traditional mini body shape. for the advances in aerodynamics and whatnot, itll most likely be a spaceframe, at least there will be very little of the standard shell left anyway. At least that way i can fiddle with the aero on the underside aswell. while revolutionary and unique, a minis suspension and driveline setup is positively antique these days.
If the number plate is from the original then that car started life in a town very near me....Stafford. Had lots of Mini's over the years during my time fiddling around with cars, including Coopers and Cooper S but my favourite was a 1964 Mk1 Mini i rescued from a guy who was about to scrap it. It was a real rare find as very few Mk1 Mini's were left in UK by the 80's because owners treated them as "just another Mini" so most were neglected and quickly ended up at the scrap yards.....unlike Cooper S which were actually much easier to find. A Mini like this in the US though??? No fun at all. All your roads are way too wide with loooong straights!! Mini's really come to life on narrow twisting roads and that's where you have the most fun with them, throwing them into corners. This guy is just blasting up and down a long straight which is really boring.
Yeah, mostly we have plastic plates like his rear or punched metal but its common on some classics to go with that stuck on vinyl like his front plate.
they are still valid, Registered to a 1983 green, 1298cc austin mini, However the MOT expired 320 days ago so its not currently legal to drive in the uk :-0
Ken6151 usual conversion wires the starter into a push-button reverse. basically, electric reverse. although, that new busa conversion from the uk with the custom built box that has a reverse built in looks mighty fancy. designed to fit into the minis engine bay too.
CptCannibal I had a VW with no reverse and 440k miles and I delivered pizzas in it. Only got stuck once couldn't see the driveway and pulled in to far the poor people tipped me good then helped me push it back up the hill. Also later on I got shit faced and ran it dash deep into a pond and left it until the next day. The farmer pulled it out with his tractor and I couldn't believe it but it fired right up. It missed for a couple of miles and poured water out of everything but it eventually cleared and ran fine.
Yup, that's how I learned. The camera guy was so amazed by how he's shifting by sound. Anyway, at least the driver looked like he was having a blast. lol
Yeah in normal driving I don't see a reason to look at the tacho when shifting, you don't need to pick a sweetspot. I evere only glance at it when I push the car around the redline
It will take you more effort and cause more road safety problems to learn all the appropiate numbers that the tacho might show. If you need to get up to speed quickly (highway entry for example), you just keep pressing the gas until you think ‘now its enough noise’. It’s just common sense.
Quite simply, the Mini is the most fun car ever built. Damn, it even looks fun! When you can make one go FAST the fun goes to a complete new level! Love it!
What a beast. In my younger days I owned a Mini Cooper S with twin petrol tanks and a 1310cc motor which drove excellent especially around corners. Would love to own one today
Food for thought..... I'd love to hear & see an old mini with an old iron head Sportster 1000cc bored to 1200cc with a pro charger and drag pipes. Now that would sound mean & awesome. After seeing this, if I had the mullah I'd try it.
240-250hp in a car that's only 1000lbs... damn! My old 3000lbs+ 1998 Mustang GT with a few mods only had around 265hp and I thought it pulled alright at the time back when I had it, lol. That Mini is amazing!
Mini's are brilliant, I've had a few over the years. they are easy to tune and can take on many bigger powered cars and show them a clean pair of heel's especially on a tight windy road, UK.
truly, your idea sounds interesting, but wouldnt it be a lot easier to just buy a complete hayabusa instead, since this is already a motorcycle engine😂
I got the nickname "Mr bean" at school, since people say i look like Rowan Atkinson, so I want to do this to a mini, and give it the exact same paint job as mr bean's car,as well as the extra locks he put on in my final year of school.
I'm pretty sure simps don't anything about what he ask. I'm just saying, you don't a bachelor's degree to consider yourself a Petro-head. Stop gatekeeping.
Albuquerque! ,I pass that shop on a daily basis. Seems like The owner just didn’t want to be bothered but was nice enough to take kid out for a drive. Sounds pretty cool to me.
People keep calling this guy an emotionless douche but how many people are kind enough to give a stranger a joy ride at a car meet. You can also see him smiling at the end
thedarkgreenvanman , why are we so bent on insulting other people? Maybe that’s his personality. Can we please just enjoy each other’s differences !
Right being reserved isn't a bad thing
Some people are all buisness and people can't handle that
Building a car like this takes some serious emotion
I watch he is nice more wonting to show what he made I like the car but I am unsocial my self but its because of a rough past on my part
Why is everyone hating on the guy? Seems like a classic introvert to me. Nothing wrong with that. We'd still be stuck at stone age if everyone was an extrovert.
tali sson thank you, it's getting annoying seeing everybody hating on him for being diffrent.
Because they are stupid cunts who aren't focusing on the VEHICLE and crave emotional interaction to lighten their shitty incel lives.
Gotta say the questions they're asking too are all pretty lame tech questions, like come on ask about his craziest story or something interesting, why do we need to know if this guy shifts by sound?
@@obfuscated3090 Well said
Agreed. No where in the rules does it state that a car owner needs to be outgoing.

yeah the 1320 guy thinks because its a famous channel he can do whatever the fuck he wants,he comes up to the guy making stupid comments like he always does,he’s annoying as fuck
Nah. They call him a douche, cause he looks and behaves like a super-douche. People know :)
Maybe it's beacuse he would slow down the car because the thing only weighs 1000 lbs 😂
he didn't learn power to weight ratio
Finnaly some guy who do not talk bulshit all the time and just let us to listen this amazing engine!
Yeah
Yeah and ruined by the giddy 12 y.o. girl with the camera.
All the hate for the owner but i think he just knows how bad ass his car is
donnie m literally he’s just like I’ll let that busa speak for itself 😭😌
BRAVO GOOD
Americans don't understand minis I see
I like how he casually shift it from the bottom of that humongous gear stick haha, hes confident of his work, he probably put a lot of effort on it, props to him

Yeah, real men don't show any emotion!
I don't know why everyone is being so critical about that guy. He seemed quiet, but I don't see why that makes him a bad person.
Because most RUclipsrs are arrogant, loud-mouthed douchebags so as soon as a quietish person is filmed they come across as rude

the hell??? never heard of the BMW head swap.
I have heard of the Vauxhall 2.0/2.4L DOHC I4 swap though with 250hp. Mean little basterds too
Yeah if you google "bmw twin cam a series" its an interesting mod and garages do full conversion kits. Lots of the hill climb and sprint boys do it
megabob_alpha i see r1 and b16/b18 swaps the most if im honest... easier to do without butchering car too much lol the ecoboost 1.0 is intresting
megabob_alpha Also seen a few Toyota Scarlet 1.3 turbo conversions too.
yeah id say honda B series are way more common than k series hondas. like 20 to 1. im not even sure anyone has done one here in australia yet. im doing a twin cam conversion for my 1293. converting to injection aswell. possibly turbocharging it in the future if i want more power. its got a 1275GT gearbox and a 286 cam on there already but the seals need changing so its sitting there until i get round to converting it.
anyway, yes, theres bmw bike conversion kits for both the 8 valve and 16 valve heads. i think its the k100 and k120 engines? cant remember the names.

What an amazing build and looks like so much fun.Pure driving experience
this guys literally the personification of cool
It's his car and he built it for himself.
Everyone else should respect or F off.
I used to have 08' Mini S twin turbo, bad head gaskets. now seeing these swaps makes me want another
Gotta have a lot of respect for a guy who can build what he wants. Put an engine in a car that doesn't belong there (I've done that myself before) Just because he can. And has lots of fun with it.
My phone doesn't put out the frequency of that guys voice. Sounds like mumbling.

Nice to see a mini in the states I'm English so proud of the mini.

It's that fast with 2 adult men, one person and that thing is a slingshot, I really love it.
In NZ there's an orange starlet with a Hayabusa in it, feels faster than this looks ;)

I remember in the 90's in Christchurch there were 2 station wagon minis running V8's. Totally insane
Regardless I respect him. Too many armchair critics... it's a big effort that car so get off your asses and into your garages guys and girls
That car was bought.....not built....
Tracey Fursland. Just drive one. Orgasmic !!!

So SICK. Hayabusa bikes are no joke. What a dope collab.
Nothing against the owner, but it's a good thing his car has enough personality for the both of them...
The car is too small for a person and his personality.
Mr Bean!
aka all meat no cereal
“It’s hilarious” probably wasn’t the compliment the guy was looking for for all of his time and money spent on his project
Ikr, that is and awesome build, i got alot of respect for the owner of that mini, iam a car & bike guy😊
Indeed. Dumb fatty
*YOU SHOULD MEET THE GUY THAT PUT A HONDA TURBO ENGINE IN ONE OF THESE !!!*
i met a guy at a meet in corona,ca that had a b16b type r engine in his.it was still front engine,but it was really really badass.

Andy Gardner Moog hasnt turbo'd his yet
Nah, i reather talk to te guy with the AC induction motor and fork him on github.
theres far more insane builds than the typical honda engine conversions. im planning a 4WD/AWD, mid-engined Inline/V6 hillclimb and time attack mini. its going to be my next build. im going to take it to the very limit of what is possible with the traditional mini body shape. for the advances in aerodynamics and whatnot, itll most likely be a spaceframe, at least there will be very little of the standard shell left anyway.

First time I've ever seen an American on RUclips behaving normally and not screaming "what's up guys!" every 5 seconds made a refreshing change
If the number plate is from the original then that car started life in a town very near me....Stafford. Had lots of Mini's over the years during my time fiddling around with cars, including Coopers and Cooper S but my favourite was a 1964 Mk1 Mini i rescued from a guy who was about to scrap it. It was a real rare find as very few Mk1 Mini's were left in UK by the 80's because owners treated them as "just another Mini" so most were neglected and quickly ended up at the scrap yards.....unlike Cooper S which were actually much easier to find.
A Mini like this in the US though??? No fun at all. All your roads are way too wide with loooong straights!! Mini's really come to life on narrow twisting roads and that's where you have the most fun with them, throwing them into corners. This guy is just blasting up and down a long straight which is really boring.
That is sick AF!
r those uk plates legal?
Yeah, mostly we have plastic plates like his rear or punched metal but its common on some classics to go with that stuck on vinyl like his front plate.
they are still valid, Registered to a 1983 green, 1298cc austin mini, However the MOT expired 320 days ago so its not currently legal to drive in the uk :-0
A Mini with left-hand drive and English license plate?
actually its legal to drive a car with no MOT if you have a MOT test booked in with a garage
i meant more as in are they legal for use in the us since i thought they were issued to the owner by the us equilvalent of the dvla
Apparently using the motorcycle transmission. So no reverse?
The thing weights nothing, just hang ya leg out and push it back with your foot
Kieron Walton or get an electric starter on a button. Slow reverse, but works like a champ!
Ken6151 usual conversion wires the starter into a push-button reverse. basically, electric reverse. although, that new busa conversion from the uk with the custom built box that has a reverse built in looks mighty fancy. designed to fit into the minis engine bay too.
CptCannibal I had a VW with no reverse and 440k miles and I delivered pizzas in it. Only got stuck once couldn't see the driveway and pulled in to far the poor people tipped me good then helped me push it back up the hill. Also later on I got shit faced and ran it dash deep into a pond and left it until the next day. The farmer pulled it out with his tractor and I couldn't believe it but it fired right up. It missed for a couple of miles and poured water out of everything but it eventually cleared and ran fine.
you can see the reverse starter motor in the back
Seems like Dave Bautista had his free time.
AWESONE CAR! The owner seems like a calm, cool dude that knows how to build an awesome machine!!! 2 thumbs up!!!
Is it me or doesn't everyone shift by sound? I didn't know that was unusual?
enodohtem. MOST DRIVERS SHIFT BY SOUND. Keep your eyes on the road.be safe. Good video & more road shoots please.
Yup, that's how I learned. The camera guy was so amazed by how he's shifting by sound. Anyway, at least the driver looked like he was having a blast. lol
Yeah in normal driving I don't see a reason to look at the tacho when shifting, you don't need to pick a sweetspot. I evere only glance at it when I push the car around the redline
It will take you more effort and cause more road safety problems to learn all the appropiate numbers that the tacho might show. If you need to get up to speed quickly (highway entry for example), you just keep pressing the gas until you think ‘now its enough noise’. It’s just common sense.
Yeah, we do, sound only. Unless youre learning. The vlogger doesn't know his manuals
Imagine a 4,000lb car with 1000hp
That's what this car is but smaller
are you talking about a power to weight ratio?
Basically yeah
Ummmm 1000lbs with 240hp... I think your math is off
4000lb with 1000hp or 2000lb with 500hp. Sounds like fun to me. Also, guy above me, its not uncommon to round numbers. Don't be a dick

Pushing works just fine. But try to pull through if you can.

Mini's are brilliant, I've had a few over the years. they are easy to tune and can take on many bigger powered cars and show them a clean pair of heel's especially on a tight windy road, UK.
Just imagine if you took that motor and put it in something small and light....like a motorcycle - THEN it'd be fast!
truly, your idea sounds interesting, but wouldnt it be a lot easier to just buy a complete hayabusa instead, since this is already a motorcycle engine😂

Cut that gear lever down and save some weight!
An Hayabusa stock engine power is 175hp! Nice Mini do' How long you spend to do the full modification!?
Bro with the mini was chill asf y'all trippin not everyone is an extrovert
The guy driving was nice enough to answer a ton of questions and take this dude for a ride...most car people aren’t like that unless you’re jay leno
That's a sick ass car, but not gonna lie the video was a bit awkward.
Why people hating on the guy?
Whats with the owner? There's no way he doesn't have a human skin suit in his basement.
I got the nickname "Mr bean" at school, since people say i look like Rowan Atkinson, so I want to do this to a mini, and give it the exact same paint job as mr bean's car,as well as the extra locks he put on in my final year of school.
I love that mini build! Love it!
Guy has the personality of a grapefruit. Kyle on the other hand is having a blast.
So no ones gonna say anything about Hyabusa instead of Hayabusa?
Turbzay hahahaha
Haha. I had to double check, 'cause I read it correct but it's written wrong :D +1
I don't think the camera guy knows much about cars after listening to him....
Gregory Feeley. SO TRUE.
Gregory Feeley doesn't know how to film either
What do you mean

I'm pretty sure simps don't anything about what he ask. I'm just saying, you don't a bachelor's degree to consider yourself a Petro-head. Stop gatekeeping.
Great one, lad. A sportbike powered Mini is a great one to do, even with a 1976-87 Chevy Chevette.
Albuquerque! ,I pass that shop on a daily basis. Seems like The owner just didn’t want to be bothered but was nice enough to take kid out for a drive. Sounds pretty cool to me.
Life is so serious. The owner laughs only in the basement.
We all can't be comedians like you with great personalities.
Nor is life all sunshine and unicorns for all of us.
If this guy was a web page it would be:
404: Fuck Not Found
Bad ass, love it thanks for making my day
Impressed that both of these 6 foot something guys fit into that classic pill box. 😁😁
Great sound, impressive work and cool owner. 👍🏼😊
I like how lowkey this guy is in contrast to his car, it balances out
