Not sure, 'cause it was already changed to black by the time I got the car. My guess is that it was either cream or tan.
Cool, I've only seen TDF is pictures. Wonder how the color fares under the sun though. Am thinking if I should keep my 456Gt in black or a shade of blue. Holy bee! This bugger corners like an F1 car too. Wonder if the gearbox affects sound as well. What do u guys think, I'm looking for an exhaust system for my porker. Kreisegg quoted me freaking S$11.7K for just the muffler. The valve control is useful for going home late & that lovely F1 tone but it's more than double what others sell for..... This is damn good!
KSG is very pricey. to me exos is the sound, weight. power is negligible unless u have a turbo. personal experience. the valve is very important as it makes the car softer than stock, and it has no problems. i have heard that capristo has valve but friends have issues.
For those of u who have Porsche. I just joined the Malaysian Porsche Club. Membership is RM500/year & 200? subsequent. They have a trackday this Sat & another in May. Members pay RM300 & non-member pay RM600. Otherwise, they have many sponsored events & drives that is worth more than the RM500. Leang, I'll be visiting a suspension specialist tomorrow to set-up my car near USJ. About RM200+/- & they are very meticulous. Apparently, they do it up to three times, each time they take it down, go for a drive then back on the hoist again. Uses the Hunter laser system like my guy in Sin Ming. Owner does Cup cars & other races.
Anyone has a 2nd hand unit? hahaha Oh. their Titanium unit is only S$600? more & titanium is 1/3 the weight of steel. I probably got to tell myself it's a high-end speaker to justify the price..... Bro, is the valve that good? I'd need to go & leave home quiet or I'll be a bad neighbour.
not that i know of....for 2nd hand. titanium apparently doesnt make as nice a sound as iconel tho its lighter. the valve is effective. when u turn it off it cuts power noticeably too. anyway tomorrow its 1pm. see u there?
456 gt i think should b best in black. gives it a more aggressive edge which helps counter balance nicely with its softer 2+2 looks. interior tan would be very nice.what rims u usingmaybe upsize to19 but not sure if if affects handling/ride
Thats great, I'm sure his good since he has so much experience and equipment! Hopefully will solve your issue and the car will handle much better, let me know how it goes!
Bro, I was at Exquisite Marques yesterday and heard from Gary that you are trying to decide between a few exhaust system. Give him a call when you can, think he got a attractive proposal for you
U know, the problem is that we have a 7% GST on imports for Singapore! Damn, I've wasted few days looking @ gazillion posts on tuning stuff for the 997 & I've got red eyes now There's at least 6-7 different companies offering headers alone & a dozen on mufflers, as usual each has their own claims. Apparently, Kreisegg is not the most expensive brand. There's Akraprovic from Eastern bloc which supplies titanium system & costs a hefty S$21K.....
Will most likely keep the wheels stock 17" @ the moment. Been reading up on old V12s & really love the Daytona but of course the 275 is still my all time fav. so this is a poor man's dream for me. An old Forza review said the gearbox of the 456GT was made to feel & handle like the 250GTO! Oh boy... & yes it doesn't go into 2nd when cold I've asked & Hurry has a spare set of 360 that fits & I also have my old 19" iforged with him that should fit as well. Have also found a set of very rare 18" Barchetta wheels on ebay which will look lovely on the 456. Hope so too. I'll be getting some sway bar & toe kit upgrades so will need to return again. Oh yes, just heard about iconel? haven't look into this but the valve is a very desirable option & only Capristo & K has it. I'll do my best to see you tomorrow & perhaps leave the track for Sat so will just do passenger time tomorrow.
how bout some 430 rims black powder coated, might look good on a black car -fierce. what color interior?
i recall seeing an article in forza on the 456 m-the car featured was black/tan n ithink last version of 456 had 18" wheels- absolutely beautiful- anyway 456 has often been touted as one of the prettiest ferraris- pictures please!
