okkk soo ive decided on the b18cx prolly the c7 or cr
but wat i now need to know is how to prepare the ek for this
this includes suspension and upgrading the breaks, i have the ek1
i was wondering do i just need the engine mounts off the ek4 or do i need subframes my mates were telling me in his mini he needed to buy subframe which cost him 3000, also another thing thats got me curious is, will there me torque steer? and if there is how do i compensate for that?
thanks im really curious and intrested in this.

just take it to a workshop, pay them some money and get them to do the conversion for you.
I htink u should do more research if you dont know the difference between c7 and cr before you do a conversion.

lol.
