The mount should be similar but that would take me getting a hold of another GS as I sold mine for the MC. However, I think I should have a red one in the shop soon. I will take the measurements off of it, take multiple photos as well. The mount location will be to the left of the crank pulley...

Well if it's any consolation. I've put a clutch in and rebuilt two Precision turbos for an Underground Racing Gallardo. Any time you are moving from stock increasing horsepower that much the stock brakes are never enough. That car was the fastest thing I've ever personally driven. But what you...

Okay, sounds good. I'm going to continue as planned. I kind of figured for someone to throw a number out there without having actually looked at it would have been odd. I think you will find it a bit more expensive than what you thought.

To be honest, IMHO, the weight really didn't have anything to do with it. The entire strut tower is aluminum alloy, the frame rail, is all steel. Increasing the tower from 7 to 12mm would be a menial weight at best. I could weigh the Strut tower, but a guess of weight when I took it off would be...

If he can do it that inexpensive, we should just contact him then. Seriously. Your going to need the SC, the mounting plates (custom fit and made for this car since no one makes them). If your going with a self contained oiling system SC, you need the lines, and cooler. Custom drive belt pulley...

I am looking for side badges like the ones in the link below, the roof Trident I now have on my hood, at least the closest replication I could get. http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_603476-Maserati-GranTurismo-MC-Stradale-2011.html

Absolutely!

So guys after obtaining my MC Stradale (U.S. version) and loving it. I find, that I want to see if there's any interest in a Supercharger kit for these cars. Let's be honest........first Novitec is out of their f$%^ minds for $35k for a Supercharger kit. Now mind you it was a great thing they...

Nope, just replacing one side, then we are going to send it up to Maserati Peabody and make them remove everything again to replace the other side on their dime. When we get it back we are going to inspect what they did, and see whether they are doing it to industry standards or not. Just...

Yes I agree. On another note does your Stradale have the logos on the side of the vehicle? I have been trying to get the logos for my Stradale but well, Maserati N/A couldn't help with that either. Here is my car now second photo shows the Trident I placed on the hood opposed to the roof...

Basically what they did was, at least in the U.S., they put a Safety recall out on the car. However, this is only applicable if you service you're vehicle through Maserati. So say you don't trust Maserati or alternatively you just don't service it through them you might not know of this issue...

And, guys here is the reason they stone-walled me on this. Took me forever to get the Strut tower/frame rail piece. Now that I have it I think you guys will find the photos interesting to say the least. To date I've not seen any photos that directly connect what the difference was in the updated...

See I don't know if it's just about brand bashing. Some of us have owned Maseratis for many years, various models, and honestly we become part of the brand itself. We come on the forum to express frustrations or things we are going through some times if for no other reason to also see if others...

Yes I need to get them from somewhere. I was tempted to tow the car, engine/gearbox, and sit it right out front of their store. Just leave it there and tell them it's your problem not mine. Of course, that wouldn't have sat well with the Client. To be honest the entire tower might weigh...

So guys this is where I am at now. I went to the Maserati dealership closest to me, the parts department obviously to order the parts or strut towers. I literally brought in the torn strut tower. They verified that there is a recall. That there are actually 7 open campaigns for this Ghibli, and...
