Thats very true! You should do that if you like the place! Can have an amazing garage! Track car? Have you found some to choose from? Share info with me!
Tim, u bought that? Congrats! I was thinking really hard few years back before Andrew picked it up from Roland. He finally brought it down to a very tempting price, good to see it kept within the circle again. Gosh, how many years has this been? Was the LED tailight done too? Your car looks suspiciously like the first Ferrari I ever drove when it was with GayHin. Very nice, I like Hold on, you have like 3-4 Ferraris now?? Get a new paint job plus the cabin & maybe all the carpet including the trunk then keep it stock. Thought you would be a better expert old horses. Maybe a new fusebox & upgrade to Brembo (but you'll need new wheels to clear the calipers) but keep the engine/injection stock. For a full blown job, go EFI & maybe individual throttlebodies. They look fantastic with tall butterflies. IMHO, for all the cars that you have & flipping them. Keeping it stock would be most ideal.
Btw, does anyone know where I can find a spare set of F575 or 550 18" wheels? I need it for my 456. The stock 17" wears very unusual sized tyres which are almost impossible to find now. There's only one set left here with 4yrs old unmounted rears!
Tim, I'm not sure if these 360 calipers fit the Mondial but worth a check @ this price. http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/vbclassified.php?do=ad&id=3211
Like that how, sell your Scud in 2011 or 12? Yeah boy & u can apply for the address as a "bonded warehouse" so u don't register & pay taxes then drive them only when u need it & it's not as if you're going to drive them daily. You & Fong should do it One of the VIP here is building a car museum in Putrajaya & is shopping for cars for it. Can't wait to see it happen. For track cars. On Porsche, you can have a 997GT3RS @ RM450K, 996GT3 Mk2 RM330K & a 993RS stripped race car @ RM250K. I'm sure we can find many many more in KL. Perhaps 355 challenge etc.
I order my tires from www.tirerack.com they have all kinds and good price usually cheaper than Spore dealers
So tomorrow's D-day? Let me know the price.... eh, that is, the price for the rest of us, NOT Lung's price
K, my prob is car's in Malaysia & they have heavy duties on tyres. I can send it here with 7% GST then pay few hundred bucks for someone to hurl it up again.... susah lah. But will try your tip. Thanks.
I have seen my first Techart Porshces (two of them) in the flesh here in Geneva and they are super freaking cool!
Hi Tim, I have a complete set of brand new Front and Rear OEM F430 Calipers + Rotors + pads + brake lines if you are interested to upgrade. Brakes were never used by me in Singapore roads before. PM me if you are interested.
ok . let me do a little more research on what the car can accomodate. aesthetically also very challenging to upsize wheels from the various pictures ive seen. might want your brakes for my testa tho. will check n pm u .thks
only 3 fs la (and total cost much less than a current f) took her for a more spirited drive n am inclined to keep her stock tho 3.2 engine still sounds tempting.fuse box seems to be an achilles heel and brakes could do with more bite. i think bigger wheels with lower profile tires might actually lighten steering (n accomodate bigger brakes) tho it might mess up her handling ,which is quite sweet as it is.
thanks ,will call u next week after ive driven the car a bit more n gotten a little more accustomed to her
What do most of you use for Brake fluids? 1) Castrol SRF 2) Motul RBF600 3) ATE Super Blue Are the above suitable for daily street use and occasional track use as well? I am considering to flush the brake system soon especially now when we are looking forward to FOCS track days soon. I remember Harold commenting about the brake fluids but cannot find the post. Please advice. Thanks
