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

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
