The Inspiration Behind the R1 Conversion Kit
The genesis of the Mini Sport R1 Conversion Kit was driven by a singular vision: to harmonise the timeless allure of the Classic Mini with the formidable power and exhilaration of the Yamaha R1 engine. Traditional upgrades to the Mini's original powertrain often faced limitations—be it in terms of power, reliability, or the sheer cost of enhancement. Enter the Yamaha R1 engine, a marvel of engineering, known for its lightweight design, rev-happy nature, and impressive power output. This fusion not only promises to overcome the challenges of traditional upgrades but to redefine what a Classic Mini can achieve on the road and the track.
Development Journey
Embarking on the journey to integrate the R1 engine into the Classic Mini was no small feat. It was a path rife with technical challenges, from ensuring a seamless fit within the Mini's compact dimensions to preserving the car's balance and drivability. Our team of engineers and designers, armed with extensive experience and a passion for innovation, met these challenges head-on.
Through countless hours of design, testing, and refinement, we developed a bespoke engine cradle, custom exhaust systems, and tailored engine mounts. These breakthroughs not only secured the R1 engine within the Mini's frame but also enhanced its performance, creating a synergy between two worlds of motoring.
Expected Impact

This kit opens up new horizons for Mini motorsport, offering an edge in competitive racing, and for enthusiasts, delivering an exhilarating ride that's unmatched in the realm of classic cars.
