JDM Sleeper Mini [Season Premiere]

We originally found this Mini Cooper in Tokyo - one of the J-Spec models made specifically for the Japanese Domestic Market. After upgrading it with a supercharger and an E85 conversion, we decided it was time to take it to the next level and transform it into the ultimate Mini sleeper...

The song featured in this video is by MOOG
'Lift Me Up (feat. 7Skies)'

Also something to note around Mighty Car Mods: we are normal guys and are not trained mechanics. We like to make interesting car mods and show you how we've gone about it, but we can't promise that anything we show you will work for your particular car, or that you won't harm yourself, someone else, your car or your warranty doing it. Please be safe, be responsible and unless you know what you're doing, do not fool around with very serious machinery just because you've seen us make it look so easy. Talk to a qualified mechanic if you are in any doubt.

Brilliant video, brillient idea, can't wait for the next episode. My favourite non supercar ever with unicorn power just brilliant.

They're back!!! I think this year if you guys come to the East Coast, we should go drifting (we were so close but no cigar at SEMA last year)! Cant wait to see what is to come!

I'm a Project Binky addict and found this as a much needed fix until the next Binky

I think MCM is arguably one of the best programmes ever to come out of YouTube. From the production and editing to the factual info it provides - its a masterpiece in all aspects.

Finally you are getting close to mixing the voices and music at the same volume! Well done guys. No more decreasing and increasing the volume constantly during a video. :)

That's certainly a dream car of mine. I love small cars; look at how effortlessly the wheels are lifted off!

[EmbraceMaking]

That brake kit looks beautiful! The builds are getting pretty serious at MCM!

[allenplant]

Watching the full playlist of the mini builds, and I just noticed that this video was released one year and one day after the completion video of the supercharged version! So neat! 😎🤙

[Schuttsr]

I love it when turbo yoda is on the show. He is my hero!!

[bobster]

I was so afraid at the beginning of the video that the complete swap would be done in one episode, so happy to find out at the end of the episode that it isn't finished yet because that means another episode is coming!

[nnarcosis]

Watching this episode again in 2023. One of the greatest. I sure miss Turbo Yota, bring 'em back!

[rjright]

Great video guys, really impressed by the mechanical details given instead of the machine just working! Thumbs up! One question; What is the cost of that engine cradle?

[rolandzman]

"Will this Honda fit in my Mini?"
Well done, Moog. Well done.

[Jim_M_]

Covid-19 lockdown, no better time to revisit some classic MCM builds, cheers Marty & Moog.

[nathanfisher]

Far out. Re watching. Look how far you’ve come. Would love to see the mini make an appearance in a new video

[Dgit]

That cute little speech of encouragement at the end. You guys are great.

[GloveBunniesVideos]

I can tell Moog is emotionally connected to this Mini. Tearing it apart is taking a toll on his mojo.

[Tintl]

My soul shattered in pieces when Moog said about going naturally aspirated.

[adamtench]

THIS is what got me into MCM. Now I'm re watching
