Lamborghini/ferrari/pagani Museum Tour


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

After seeing this thread (http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Italy-Factory-Tours-t342860.html) I decided to detour to Italy on the way back home.

Thanks goes to http://www.motorstars.org/ for organising such an awesome tour!

Also had a 30min spin of the Ferrari 458italia which was unbelievable.

Less chat; Here are the pics.

Definitely something which must be done when visiting Europe. Flights and accomodation in Bologna, Italy is affordable so real easy to drop by

Enjoy!

God_speed and myself have many happy memories of the...

Lamborghini Museum at Santagata Bolognese

Maserati Service Centre at Modena

Ferrari Museum at Maranello

All the 3x above are within 40 mins an hour of each other in a triangle

I missed out on that Pagani Museum.

Also missed out on Ducati which is also in Modena somewhere.

A suggested drive tour I'd recommend for car fanatics would be...

* pm flight from Australia > Vienna > Bologna arriving in the morning

* Hire car from Bologna > Lamborghini Museum at Santagata although there is a 2nd museum not too far away that includes the tractors > stay at Modena

* 2x days in Modena > Pagani + Ducati + Maserati Museums

* 1x day at Ferrari Museum just a bit south in Maranello + test track + Ferrari shop

* Drive north-west up through Milan > Lakes District > Stelvio Pass > Munich.

* Drive north-east to Bavaria > BMW Museum

* Drive E-N-E to Stuttgart > Porsche + Mercs

* Drive north to Cologne > Nurburgring

Thanks for the pics > Happy Memories

Has the Lambo Museum still got...

* that audio segment with the Diablo fanging itself around a track?

* big windows overlooking the factory?

haha sounds like an epic trip!

The lambo factory tour was closed due to the production of the 2011 lambo happening and they didnt want to leak the design etc

Did not see any windows in the museum (unless it was covered up for the above reason)

    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
    • lights are on just the one click.  
    • Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.
    • When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
