  1. Hello all. My Diablo 6.0 is having some GFA issues. Of course the part is not available from the factory. Does anyone know of any person or shops that repair ECUs/GFAs? I have did some google searcehs and called some "ECU repair" shops and everyone has said no the moment they hear Lamborghini. I have also come across a couple of posts here and there where some people have stated where they put a an early Murci GFA in their Diablos and all worked well. Any and all inputs would be highly appreciated.
  2. To each his own, but the Aventador is already "slow" compared to the current supercars and the last thing I want is to be even slower lol. I would not even mind if it didnt gain power but at least not lose any. It blows my mind that Lambo owners drop $8-12k on exhaust and install, but dont spend $200 to dyno their cars before and after, like wtf lol
  3. Make sure you get a dyno before and after. The design of that exhaust definitely is not conducive to making power and most likely you are losing a good bit. I spoke to maker of the exhaust "Brilliant" and he said "my only concern is sound, i dont care if it loses power." That did not sound comforting to me. It does sound glorious though but not at the cost of losing power. Aventador is already "slow" compared to todays exotics and sure as hell dont want to have less power.
  4. I spoke to Maurizio for about 10-15 min at last Monterey when I found out I am getting the SVJ63 roadster and he told me it’s gonna be V12 with 3 motors. I specifically brought up the SF90 and how much power it makes and said something to the tune of “I hope it’s same level of performance.” He just smiled and winked and said “you won’t be disappointed.” And it certainly will not be released next year. I just found out my 63 roadster doesn’t even go into production until May 2021 so it will def be later. I assume it may be unveiled in 2022 Monterey and available later that year or early 2023.
  5. I haven’t seen a white SV marketed anywhere. I may know someone that wants one. Can you send me some details.
  6. My SV went under a transformation this past two weeks. As amazing as the car looked in its black color, I believe a wild car such as this needs to scream. All the carbon fiber just blended with the car. The SV is wrapped i@inozetek vinyl which literally looks like paint. The work was done by @masterautofilms and all I can say is wow. This wrap is literally perfection. The carbon pieces all now prop and show a great contrast to the color. I am beyond happy with the final results ❤️
  7. Yes sir but changed things up a bit. I cant wait for it to come.
  8. That is a fair assessment except we still do not know that since no one refuses to post before and after dyno
  9. I kind of disagree. It’s one thing if it made no extra power but sounded amazing. But how do you know it’s not losing power ? I’m not sure if you were around or remember but a couple years back when the factory was offering the race exhaust and tune and they claimed that it gained 10% power and now mind you this is factory not some little shop in California i’m not sure if you were around or remember but a couple years back when the factory was offering the race exhaust and tune and they claimed that it gained 10% power and now mind you this is factory not some little shop in California Well for once the smart buyer had his Aventador dynod the day before the exhaust installation by the dealership and had it immediately dynode after and he lost almost 50 foot pounds of torque in the process and gained 4 whp at 8500 rpm lol. He was in a battle with factory for months and they had no explanation and at the end of the day they completely removed this option which is why you can no longer but a race exhaust and tune for the Aventador from the factory cause they couldn’t even back up their claim. I don’t give a damn how good an exhaust sounds if I’m gonna lose 50 ft/lb
  10. Thanks for your input. Are you tall? What i gather is that it is very height dependent. I am 5'7" and yesterday sat in the Huracan perf carbon seats and felt pretty good to me. I can see if you are 6' or taller it would suck. I will still either do an upgraded seat bracket or use spacers and make a tilt in the seats which all who have done say makes a world of difference. But specs are finalized and i went with the carbon seats
  11. No they are not. I have spoken to Alex Gintani and he stated that he does not change headers at all but that he "extends the headers." This statement which I have asked on two separate occasions makes absolutely no sense because it means nothing. "extending the headers" is the same thing as attaching cat delete pipes right after the header which is "extending" the header. The issue with many of these shops are that they are making exhaust for sound or fire and cracks and pops. Ask one of them to post a before and after dyno. All these hops have dynos. Do you wonder why they never post a before and after but post 75 videos of other things?
  12. I need to do valve adjustments on my Diablo 6.0 and besides going to a dealership I wanted fi know Indy shops that would be trustworthy for this job. It is obviously an easy job like an oil change so want to be sure who it goes to. Appreciate all the inputs.
  13. Thanks for everyone for their input. VCR, after reading your post, I decided to go with sports carbon seats. YOLO
  14. So the spec in my SVJ63 roadster is 99.99% done. Everyone encouraged me to order the comfort seats instead of the carbon seats and how I will hate the car etc etc. So now that I took delivery of my Murci 670SV I am not that mad about the carbon buckets. I am not sure how similar they are but I figured they have to be close since neither recline and are fixed etc. Does anyone have any inputs or possibly experienced the Murci SV and carbon seats in Aventador and if they are similar and as bad as everyone complains about ? The carbon seats look so much better and part of me thinks I am gonna ruin the feel if I go comfort but then when I hear people trading in their Aventadors cause they hated the carbon seats makes me think twice lol. All inputs appreciated.
  15. After 7 years of amazing ownership my 07 LP640 is gone. I had said I would never sell it unless for one and only one car. siince I already own the Diablo 6.0, and SVJ63 roadster coming, I figured I should completely the Trinity. So pulled the trigger on Roy’s 2010 670SV. I got the car today and wow wow wow. I am so in love. I am actually shocked how different her characteristics are compared to my LP640.
  16. This is pretty cool and few people that don’t have the Unica app had asked me to post screenshots of the article. The factory sent out a photographer and their marketing head to do this story involving Covid-19 and Lambo owners on the front lines.
  17. they were made by the same people that do all the interior work and stitchings; they are definitely the most comfortable and well made masks I have seen.
  18. I know masks and these are the nicest masks I have ever held.
  19. This was a great way to start the weekend. IMG_4206.MP4
  20. What do you guys think of this? In a sense this reverses the exterior motif to the interior where the black and yellow are primary colors in the interior with the blue as secondary accent. The stitching, crest, piping, 12 o’clock stripe on the steering wheel, and a small pocket in front of the center console will be blue everything else will be black and yellow. The stitchings, crest, piping, center stripe on the steering wheel, and a small pocket in front of the center consul will be blue everything else will be black and yellow. No matter how I try to incorporate blue on the dash it just did not go well or at least I couldn’t come up with the right combination to look right. The question is whether to keep the steering wheel all black with just the blue stripe or add the top and lower yellow inserts?
  21. Thanks for the input brother. Congrats on yours as well. -I do like the idea of the "63" on the front trunk to be outlined instead of the bold and filled in I have to discuss that. I wonder if they are going to say "that will be $5k to apply less paint" LMAO -I love black wheels, and think the yellow calipers with glossy black wheels and maybe even center locks in yellow would really make it pop, but almost every one of my vehicles have glossy black wheels lol and was thinking of a different style -I am def going to rework the interior with them and see different options, Since you seem to further along than myself, how open are they to revising your requests or giving you different versions? Yes, for the money we are spending they should do it 75x if asked but didnt know if they get sick of asking for this and that revision lol
  22. Thank you for taking the time for such detailed reply. I really do appreciate it. I want to address a few things because you many not be aware of them. -What makes the SVJ63 different than the SVJ is the EXPOSED carbon on top half of the car including A-pillars, roof, decklid, bonet etc. By making those body color, it would be essentially a downgrade to what an SVJ. These are not options one can pay for on a standard SVJ to make it "look" like a 63 edition so in a sense we want all the exposed carbon which is what makes the car special. -The SVJ63 Roadster has a completely different livery than the SVJ63 coupe. 63 being in center of hood, "SVJ" not on fender but on bonet are just two of the many. I mean I could say I dont want them but them we are basically giving up the exclusivity which is an entire different discussion all together lol. Also, what a lot of people dont realize is that 100% of the livery on the SVJ63 coupe and roadsters are painted and not stickers. Every single aspect of it is painted. -Factory has no bright gold wheels. Options are glossy black, titanium or bronze. Now that is something that can be looked at as VCR mentioned. Maybe consider doing gloss black wheels, yellow calipers to match the accent color and maybe even yellow on the center locks. If I stick with bronze wheels then, the caliper has to be black, cause yellow wont look good behind bronze/gold wheels. -As far as interior, the biggest decision I have to make is comfort vs. the race seats because that will also change the look as well but many of the points you made are well put. Thanks again mate.
  23. Just got t ge FB rendering for my SVJ63 roadster. Here is what I had asked for -Blu Cepheus, yellow accent, shiny carbon, bronze wheels. -The yellow I had in mind was Giallo Orion which is bright but they chose Giallo Evros. Seems more gold to me which I don’t like. -There is way too much blue inside, not sure if I am feeling it I think black and yellow interior would be better -Currently only the horizontal edge of the wing has the yellow trim and I wonder if it would look better with it going all around the wing -want to add a yellow trim edge to where the tops come to gather which would create a thin double yellow line like rendering posted Would love to hear your inputs
