That's the thing about engineers - they're typically car enthusiasts too, and if you come to them with a good idea and aren't a fucking dickhead, they will work with you to help you get the vehicle built and on the road.

Im not gonna lie this is my dream right here and someone made it a reality. I loved my mini while it was working. I had a 2016 with its notorious coolant management problems. Then before I could fix it I got tboned and the car was totalled. Now I got my hands on a 23 wrx and I love it, but it would be nice in a smaller car. The wrx is pretty big now.

Fantastic video. Incredible build that I've enjoyed seeing locally, and I just love hearing from any single person who has gone through such a thorough job on a car on their own... knowing exactly what is where in every inch of the car and how it was figured out and made to fit. A very deserving feature.
