New member - recent Granturismo S purchase

[Andyk]

A big warm welcome Rob…That’s a lovely GT you have there.

I’ve attached some photos which I thought might be helpful for other Granturismo owners wanting to do the same (the instructions I got with it were for a Ferrari F12!) to see how I routed the cables and where I located the earth wire, and mounted the controller to the battery frame.

It was relatively easy to install - I just needed to drill a hole in the plastic boot tub on the left side for the rubber grommet - there’s no need to drill through the heat shield as there is already a gap in the heat shield on both sides for what I think are the parking brake cables.

It's definitely nice to have the full noise with the valves open with the softer ride

Ahh you have the rear mounted solenoid. Earlier ones have the solenoid under the bonnet and run long vacuum hoses (from memory)

Nice. Did you have to run 12v too?

No - I just earthed it. It plugs into the existing wiring for the valves under the car so takes its power from that.
