or the F40.... IN THE 80's!

But that was cool, cause the outer 2 were from the turbo's, and the middle one was from the wastegate.

Don't think that PM35 has a wastegate :rolleyes:

Except that the 458 isn't turbo... stupid nostalgia trip!

its strange that most car companies are now producing a retro model of some description. Some work out OK I reckon, but some are just dogs.

If Ferrari wanted to put 3 exhausts on the 458, they should have put turbos and a wastegate on it!:whistling:

I wonder if when F1 goes back to Turbo's in 2013, companies hero cars will then become turbo again- like the 80's?

Funny how Ferrari get away with it when they put them on a 458 Italia...

Difference is;

1. Ferrari 458 is beautiful (and I'm a Lamborghini guy!)... although I don't really like the rear lights

2. The exhaust is in the middle of the 458

3. It has a specially designed rear bumper designed to "work with" the 3 tipped exhaust

4. Not styled similarly to a Volvo :P

on the topic of tires. which im not very good at calculating as I have No f**kin idea on how the calculations work.

if on the stock 18" ARX wheels i have 245/50R18's which is the standard rolling diameter for the ARX, and I wanted to go to 19" x 8.5 - pretty much same as Bbenny's wheel, what tire size would I need??

I want to stretch the tires a little to.

i tried searching a calculater, but i dont even know where to start!

I like this one: http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

or this one:

http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp

Damn the standard ARX tyre size is 245/50?

If you going 19's in 8.5 I reckon 245/35 or 40

If your gonna stretch it a little go 225....lol

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
