Sorry for the bad photo, I am still getting used to my Ipad.

Here is a shot of my car in the garage just before I had my lifts installed,

and one after the job was finished a week ago.

Nice garage!

[njja]

Thanks, it was a little small for a 3 car measuring only 30X20 but it did

have 13' ceilings. I installed Liftmaster jackstaff openers and raised the

height of doors 2 & 3 which allowed me to have high lift (71") lifts

installed. They are really nice with wide foot plates that do not have to

ancored to the floor. I ordered casters so they can be moved if you

needed to. I also checked with my flooring company racedeck and as

they advised me their floor easily handled the lifts. I have my SSR on top

of the Camero, and the Cobra above the Ferrari. Wife's car has its own

bay along with my work bench.

In the last picture, what are the Ferraris on the far right and far left?

[docf]

Boxer : I'M not sure what picture you are referring to as to far left. Last picture to the far right was new MB. in black. Unfortunately the 458 is not mine. I must wait until my house sells in Co. to even attempt ordering the Spyder. I do enjoy the Modena as it has been a no issue car.

Doc,

Picture I was referring to is in one of njja's posts.

Is a 458 Spider potentially in the cards?

[docf]

The Spyder is a possibility, however must sell the house first. Obviously need to see where this economy is going.

That picture was taken in the basement of our Ferrari dealer. I'm not sure which cars were alongside. They had a ton of cars down there including 2 Enzo's. They store a lot of car for people with no garages here in Atlanta.

Its a real pleasure to get a look down there every now and then.

Hello
I just bought a 2002 360 Modena with 12k for 71k, just want to know when you replaced the timming belt,the dealer says that I did get a good deal because the timming belt was not replaced,the manual says it does not need a change until 15k min

Hi John,

Normally the timing belt for 360 is to be change or at the 15k miles or after 3 years which ever come first.

Check when last was the belt changes and if it is more than 3 years would suggest not to hesitate and have it changed ASAP

It will save you lots of troubles down the road

Ferrari is about respecting the periodic maintenance schedule as per constructor book, and you will enjoy you Ferrari like nothing else

Good luck

You can upload pics to FL using an iPad? I never knew that. Someone tell me how!

Hello Barry

I am the owner of a Ferrari 360 Modena and I must correct you on what you had said

in regards to having to chang the timming belt changed, you said to me that it needs to

be change every 15k or three years, I checked my owner manual and it dose say to

change it every 15k but nothing about it needing it done every Three years, if that was

so on my 2003 it would have been changed three times by now at the cost of 4.5k every

three years which would total 14.500 in cost. Every three is very UN necessarily.

I would like to hear back from other 360 owners about when they had there timming belt

changed and at what cost

There is known documentation that supersedes your owners manual.

Please refer to Ferrari TSB #1215 Dated 5-04 For 8 cylinder models states 3 years or 30k miles.

Or Contact FNA

John Green, Do a search for posts on belts, you'll find one by Taz on the 24th of January that has the Tech Bulletin that recommends belt changes every 3 Years or 30K miles, whichever comes first.

There are some who agree with you that changes that often are un-necessary. However, I suspect most of them are not owners. Most owners here seem to feel that whether or not frequent changes are necessary, they are unwilling to accept the risk of exceeding the factory recommendations. I can tell you that Josh will have my car on the last day of the third year. To me, it's a small price compared with the risk of a failed belt and the resulting catastrophic engine failure.

In the end, it all comes down to risk management.
