That looks a really nice car. All you need to know has already been said but can I just add that the old chestnut of difficult second when cold is...
I had the same problem. Whenever you ask for spares they say "What car is it for" and as soon as I say Ferrari they say no chance. I could see it...
Quite right Andy, but I got fed up with the Vitaloni California because it is really difficult to get it to stay in position. I see that Makela...
That front is a complete mish mash. No spot lights and the shape underneath is neither series one or two. Also the rubber bumper has been...
Love this post and nice video. However that old chestnut of TDC has come up again. I have a really easy and accurate way of finding TDC that does...
I rebuilt my whole system when I did the car last year. Completely refurbished the pulleys and pivots and fitted a new cable kit from...
I do a lot of longish journeys that start or finish in the dark, so there is always a period when it would be good to run lights but I don't...
The threads are 8 x 1.25. I cannot find a reference to it in the GT4 WM but in the 328 WM it appears under the heading Gearbox and Differential, I...
I can't agree about the arms flexing. There is a plate welded across the side arms to the web. Should be stronger. Makela did something similar on...
One of my big hates with the 328 is screen reflections, especially when driving into the sun. When I got the Scud the dash was covered in black...
Re series 1 GT4. I had the corner weights done recently. I was given a total weight of 1269kg with half tank of fuel and no driver. There was...
This is really interesting stuff, especially the reply from Paul _308. I was going to fit upmarket bulbs to brighten the headlights but will do...
Fabulous work and a great garage. From the rate of progress you must be working 72 hour days. Too late to suggest now but the best tip I ever saw...
When I rebuilt my GT4 engine it really grieved me to bolt that heavy lump back on the end of the crank. But the engine really needs it unless you...
When I rebuilt the engine on my series one GT4 I was expecting a fight to undo the nut and get the damper off. When I got to it the nut undid easy...
Lots of issues here. I went through all this a year ago and should warn that there is a good opportunity to ruin the crankshaft, never mind the...
General advice on warm up is to keep the warm up time short. Reason is that some of the products of combustion are quite corrosive when the engine...
If you are in the UK and you want a 348 set up to handle contact Robin at Damax.co.uk. No connection. He understands those cars.
My GT4 has one in the fuel filler housing under the flap.
From what has been said so far I think the 458 launch system is the same as on the Scud. I tried it a few times as described in the manual and...
