    Is there a listing somewhere of 3rd party parts which can be used on the F-car instead of purchasing expensive items from Ferrari?

    for instance, the Lambo 6ltr headlight is the same unit as used in a 200ZX. Saves quite alot of money if you need to replace.

    From my great experience with QV London, i would suggest you ask them if they think there's a market for this. They seem to have pioneered the 355 manifold exchange and will get into 355 hood following my saga.

    That'd be a 300ZX Rob ;)

    Aren't Ferrari brake pads the same as some relatively common machinery (BMW's I think - seem to recall this not from the recent Fiorano thread, but from someone posting a Ferodo web link).

    The US sections probably have something on this already...

    Chas,

    Go to any decent motorfactors and get them to cross reference the disks with something else (try either a 964 turbo or a 993 Porsche)
