Nah, it's just Ferarri's in particular really, especially those like the Enzo and the FXX which are closer to an F1 car than anything street legal. I'm not interested in it if it can't be driven on a public road in some form. The engine note of that thing is like a buzzing insect close to the ear!

You can buy them, but they aren't road legal - anywhere. And they stay under lock and key at Fiorano, and you only get to drive your car at Ferrari organised/endorsed track days.

But apparently they do use them for product development, so for the $squillion dollar cost, you get to be a Ferrari test driver.

EDIT: You can't actually buy one, like most of the hyperspecial ferraris now, you need to be one of Ferrari's 'preferred customers' (ie, absurdly rich and already own several Ferraris) to be invited to buy one.

oh.... so they get joe public to fund the car and the R+D, but they get to keep it? bit of a rip..

ohhhhh... now i know where the FXX is familiar.... it's mentioned when people talk about the SpecV brakes! apparently the CC brakes on the SpecV are the same as the FXX

I don't care much for Fezzas but check these videos out:

Was built for a customer off the Enzo platform, he had that much money that he went back and asked Ferrari for permission to restyle it for him with some other makers to resemble the older Ferrari's that he loved.

Personally think it looks shit, but respect for how much work would have to go into that to transform it into what it is.

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
