Project Binky - GT4 in a Mini

Bing_IRL

Came across these guys "Bad Obsession Motorsport" who are building a Mini 1000 with the running gear from a Toyota Celica GT4.

There are 8 episodes so far but looks like amazing work.

Not finished yet though, Here's the progress so far!

Here's their trailer

Brilliant episode. Moved along at a faster pace too.

Last time i watched it was over a year ago, must catch up with earlier episodes

Considering the effort they put into fabricating all manner of brackets etc. I was expecting them to go full spec on a motorsport style custom loom.

Having made wiring looks for cars over the years, their work on this seems a bit shady so far, no protection on any of the wiring runs etc. Hopefully in the next episode they'll bring on harness protection and the likes cos God knows the time you don't want a wire to chafe and Arc off a panel is the time it does and burns a car to the ground..

It'll be some machine when finished though, if they ever get it finished that is..

I'd imagine all the wiring will come out for painting and they'll put in grommets and wrap the loom then

Wiring porn, my favourite, great episode. Like above I was surprised no harnessing was done, again it might be later.

New post on what looks to be all the machining of the alternator drive from the last episode.

As much as I appreciate a well designed and manufactured bit of machining, that episode was such a let down compared to the others.

That was just a sub episode with all the detail on the machining. Good way to do it so they didn't need to dedicate too much time to it o n main episode.

Second part of the machining dropping at 8 tonight.

The skills that both these lads have is unreal. That car will be bulletproof and an engineering marvel when they finish it. Would love to see an episode about the 2 lads background.

New episode tonight for those on patreon. Tomorrow for the rest of us.

Guy:Incognito

Watching this at the minute. I ****ing love a nice centre console.

mickdw

Lots of headway in this episode.

Guy:Incognito

Episode 22 coming tonight at 8. Could be just for patreon, doesnt say. So could be an extra day or so for the rest of us.

OldMrBrennan83

Just appeared on YouTube for all.

Wow, I wasn't expecting that

Guy:Incognito

New episode alert. Out now on patreon. Tonight at 8 for the rest.

OldMrBrennan83

I'm liking these shorter, more frequent ones.

wotzgoingon

Wow, only started watching this and your man Nik is pretty talented at fabricating. On episode 5 at the minute.

Watching the first series - these guys are simply incredible. Real engineers. Never mind the car but the engineering that goes into their various jigs and rigs is mindblowing..

It took me a few episodes to get to grips with some of the gags but I'm glad to have found this thread.

lawred2

Just finished episode 23.

Went to look for episode 24. No episode 24. What gives?

Then I see post date on episode 23. 1st March. There are no more. I'm up to date.

Coming to you next weekend on YouTube - a preview of the next two of projects. Cannot wait!

This dropped for patron supporters today. They have an MG SVR body shell alongside the 205 rally car in the opening sequence to be done next.

New projects? Sure Binky is still years away at the pace they're putting out videos!
