It's a great deal for the PRE-'05 version of the kit, and even if you wanted the intake and injectors they could be had for a lot less than the $3000 in savings. I have already said F'it and sent it in to the cooper forums though.

1 of something can most definitely be a hot deal, but it usually has no place in a hot deals forum. Since it's so specific and not many people would even have the opportunity of taking advantage of it (# of people who own a miniS), it probably doesn't matter there is only 1.

Seems like a pot kettle situation. Some of them may be doing a little thread-crapping, but you seem to be the one doing the name-calling.

if you read, you would have seen 'the name-calling' was my replies to others...not much really anyway other than mentioning n00bs. There is quite a bit of thread-crapping though...mostly by people that have no clue on the deal.

Did you see the crap they posted, they were way off base.

I read it all before posting.

I'm not sure why it matters so much. A lot of people don't think it's a hot deal, you do. Why must there be bickering? Why do you care if the item sells?

So crapping on HD's you don't have a need for is ok now?

It's the principle of it.

true ... however,

i look at it two ways ...

1) you can take offense and scream to the mods

2) you can answer each *crap* with correct info ...
and consider it a 'bump' as it's now getting more attention that it normally would.

your choice as to how you look at it
[i prefer No.2] 😉

happy new year!

Not that I take offense nor am I screaming...however; I have been given time outs here for a lot less drama...

I prefer #2 as well, but like a poster above; they get confused and think it's me that was starting everything.

It's cool either way, I get nothing out of this other than I am really into modifying and if I had a Cooper S, I'd be buying this.

Agreed. There is a difference between offering an opinion and crapping on a thread. Come on alkemyst you know better than that.

You lack the same reading comprehension Allisolm does then. N00B said I didn't know WTF I was talking about, so I replyed. Where was the opinion really offered? I can guarantee anyone that replied in negative was simply jumping on the bandwagon.

So you two elites seem to think it's ok to treadcrap in HD and perhaps FST then?

I am ok with it in OT.
