    Hey guys, I was wondering what updates people are doing to 348s these days.
    I think I've heard of people doing 355 suspension, etc, but is it possible to put the f1 paddle shift into a 348? How about 355/360 engines? Brakes?
    Any help appreciated. Thanks!

    That would certainly be the lowest cost route. One could swap in the 348 body parts and still save some money overall.

    Probably make money on selling your 355 stuff and buying used 348 parts. [emoji848] may have to think about that? I would have the only 345. Like that number too. Really confuse the Cars and Coffee crowd. I am in!

    Hmmmm. That may be the ticket. No engine outs. Manual steering for road feel. No other computer. I can sell you my 430 Challenge car. $79k and you would have everything you need [emoji16][emoji482]

    Wish I could, but need my cash back out this deal since we are not racing. Tempting though!

    F1 is not compatible with Motronic 2.5 and 2.7 and you really want an OBDII diagnostic capability (SD2) and at least Motronic 5.2 to be able to maintain F1 systems. Would require quite a few changes that would be pretty fiddly.

    Buying a late F355 would be cheaper.
