Taking stretch too far

QUOTE:

"This is, believe it or not, the world's first-ever Ferrari stretch limo: a

23-foot 360 Modena with eight seats and the biggest electric gullwing

doors we've ever seen.

It's the handiwork of Style Limousines in Manchester, which spent more

than £200,000 modifying the rear-engined 360.

All eight of the seats are carbon-fibre buckets with five-point race

harnesses - which might sound excessive until you discover that the

3.6-litre V8 remains, its 395bhp propelling the mega-Ferrari to 60mph in

under six seconds. Could prove a challenge not to spill your cheap

champagne.

Those gullwing doors are nine-foot long and were designed by one of the

teams responsible for the Mercedes SLR McLaren.

If you really, really feel the need to see the stretch Ferrari in the

flesh, it'll be debuting at the European Limousine & Chauffeur show this

weekend alongside Europe's biggest stretch Hummer."

how the hell do you spend 200,000 pounds sterling modifying it?

quite easily i reckon if all the seats were bucket seats with harnesses, the hour of labour would be massive, then they prob used carbon fibre or some kind of high strenght light wieght material which would cost a fortune....list goes on, it would add up!

i reckon it looks awesome, would be funny to see it do a hotlap of a race track....just don't try and cruise around monaco in it! :P

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
