I assume you don't know anyone in Italy ?

Marranello, I think would be pretty hard too get too. Its a basically a very small town based around a race track and the Ferrari Factory and Shops, Museum.

There would have too be transport from Milan or Veronia. Very much worth it.

It is seriously in the middle of no where. One main street. Try and get there around midday, or knock off time, its worth too see all the mechanics in their unforms going home.

If your lucky you might see something running around the track.

When I was in italy I went to Maranello and went to the Museum.

Its pretty cool and all the cars there are not donated by Ferarri, but bought by the museum itself.

It has heaps of new and old cars, heaps of the F1 engines and also heaps of cut aways.

Its pretty cool and worth the while if you are in the area, but i wouldnt make a special trip.

I am not sure if you can go to the "factory" itself. As for getting there, we were in a car so we drove so i cant give any directions or anything, sorry bud.

You can get buses that will connect to maranello from bologna, verona or even Milan or Venice. You will have to connect with more than one bus so take special notes of the bus times especially when returning at night to often over there I got caught out because the last bus left a particualr station at 10.30pm and my bus arrived there at 10.45 and this was the last bus of the night!!! Do you speak Italian? If not try to get it all organised days in advance as just rocking up the day to the station etc could make it really hard for you.

The ferrari museum is ok, just near here is also the Lambo factory which is really cool, and also in the area is maseratti and the ducatii factory

You won't be able to get a tour of the actual factory.

Bus transport from Modena is fairly easy if you are polite with the people at the information desks :(

The museum, shops etc. are worth the visit if you are a bonafied Ferrari freak. The atmosphere is awesome... but to be honest with you I think visiting the Alfa Romeo museum would be a better payoff. Unless, of course, you have time to visit them all!!!

Thanks guys for the replies :)

I've sort of figured out the 2 buses to get to maranello....

title was a bit misleading - you have to have a fezza to actually get a tour of the factory - i don't think a GTR will cut it, unfortunately.

Will still check out the museum on the way through to venice from rome!

cheers

    • Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.
    • Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that). 
    • Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply 
    • Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point
    • Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
