    My belt lasted 17 years. Is it a world record of some sort? :)

    My belt last 5 years.....too bad the bearing didnt!!! I have a question...

    Does anyone make a clutch that will last a 100k miles, because my Ferrari one only lasted 20k but my Jeep is going on 160k....Can I just use my Jeep clutch plate?

    Remove the center of the two clutches. Attach the Ferrari center to the Jeep facing using duct tape and pop rivets. Install. Drive.

    My favorites.

    1)How much is a belt service...3k, 5K, 15k....all hell breaks loose and going off topic.

    2) Can a volvo thermostat fit in my car, it looks the same, but its $20 as opposed to $200

    3) Can i use kumo tires on the racetrack ? the tread last far longer than the potenza's i had before

    4) Has anyone tried cooking oil as opposed to 15W50 agip ?

    oh, the laughs.

    How many women in the Ferrari?

    At 3200 lbs., the Ferrari will add considerable weight. Probably easier to pick her up alone. Also, the Ferrari has few places to grab hold of, whereas the woman can be grabbed under the arms or around the thighs. To pick up women in a Ferrari, I would use a lift.

    Yeah but if you have the roof spoiler (basket handle) it's pretty easy.

    - What do you guys pay for insurance?
    - When will 3X8 be at the bottom of the depreciation curve?
    - My CEL's are on, but the car runs fine - can I just put black tape over them?
