    Nice! I have never seen this brochure before. Thank you Terry!

    Funny, they write “CCM brake system” and show the steel brakes on the first picture :D

    Interesting: The Fiorano lap times are 1.5 sec faster with HGTC than without.

    Markus-Affirmative, and that photo shows 18" wheels, too. Guess that was the starting point.

    Alex sent me photos of three of them, not including Mr Liu's 135131. There are two shots of 135662 at the bottom, one showing the roll bar. In SN order on the photos, less 131531.

    Sorry, 134312 has no shields. Kind of superfluous on a Giallo car.

    Hi Taz,
    Appreciate your help, the importer here is quoting week 44 for factory supply of new fuel pumps, do you know anywhere in the states I can find some?
    Thanks!

    Hi Taz, panic over Ricambi have them! Another question for you oh oracle, my front light units appear to have a small amount of dust inside, is it possible to open these to clean them?
    Tks, Ian

    Ian- Affirmative, the covers were actually designed as a replaceable part, but then Ferrari never bought spares or put the covers in the parts catalog. If you are not brave enough to remove them, with the bulbs removed, it is possible to remove the headlight, get small brushes in through the bulb holes to clean the dust, and then blow out the dust.

    Ian- You can buy the 575M workshop manual from Ricambi for $125. Very good investment.

    Hey Taz, is it worthwhile as well if you have no plans to work in your own car like me ?

    Clyde- Affirmative, I do very little on mine now. Maintained all my earlier Ferraris, Corvettes and Porsches myself, but not this one. Being able to plan work on your Ferrari with your techs is a good thing.

    For instance, we now have Xerex G-05 in her as a coolant, but will probably change to G-48 next time around.

    I did a search on Ricambi's site and they appear to be out of the manual at this time, perhaps they'll get it back in stock later

    Clyde- E-mail Daniel, they have it. I cannot find it either because it is disguised.
