  1. I purchased this http://www.ezcarlift.com/ works great, friend of mine did an engine out with his Testarossa with the system, what is nice you can lift either front, back, left side or right side or the whole car. It is not as easy as a hydraulic lift but then again you can store this away as you only will use it once a year.
  2. The Diablo is a stunning beast to behold in person, I can park this anywhere with many newer exotics and it will steal all the attention, it is that timeless like the Countach.
  3. My opinion is any Diablo "without" pop up headlights is not a Diablo at all one of the best features is the hidden headlights, having the boring 300Z headlights takes away from it's original design imo

  5. Allan that is a great price especially for that car it is pristine condition. I know this Gallardo very well, I was fortunate enough to drive her a few years ago, the cars description is bang on the money. I actually think it looks better now than when Allan purchased the car. Allan loves black cars, he owns many, so he knows how to take special care of them. He's so good in fact that we get him to detail all our cars as well and he does it for FREE!!!!! seriously this guy should own his own detailing shop instead of being in the Medical profession ha ha ha ha. Any of you potential buyers that are looking for an amazing machine that looks and drive like new, DO NOT HESITATE TO PURCHASE THIS ONE!!!!! I give it my Night life seal of approval
  6. I see nothing wrong with his pricing, nope none whatsoever , we need more ppl like him to drive the prices up where they deserve to be
  7. Hope Santa has lots of carbon fiber presents under the tree for you all, even though we drive Devilish cars Cheers
  8. Thanks Ryan hows your new baby ? send some pics to the boys they are all dying to hear about it, especially Allan, I think he's next lol HA ha ha ha love the graph, it's spot on
  9. Thanks everyone, I know it's not everyones cup of tea, but if you have never driven one do yourself a favor and do so, quite a machine. Actually I was shocked at how well it drove on snow, it has a dummy snow setting for me Oh my yes lol, will be getting stripes on car black with yellow center, ordered full carbon fiber air intakes, carbon fiber custom rear spoiler, spring time will be adding the Fabspeed high performance exhaust potentually adding 60 HP for a tidy output of 550HP Yes US car from SoCal
  10. I thought that some of you might appreciate my latest toy, just arrived in time for Xmas Don't worry I'm still an Lambo guy through and through, I just like having my cake and eating it too, or having a blonde and brunette, or sometimes I feel like a nut sometimes I don't, use what ever analogy you wish I will never sell the Diablo Roadster, but I will cheat on her Actually with the prices of the Diablo starting to rise I will semi retire my DR, meaning no more of those long trips or track events. I needed a car that had as much luggage space as the Diablo, as much power, and one that I could modify over the years, and had to be vertible. I almost bought an LP-640 roadster but I could not get past that horrible horrible top. I consider an LP-560 spyder but when I saw both the Gallardo and the 430 spider the Ferrari had way more of an aggressive presance, so my choice was clear. Until the Aventador Roadster prices fall within my price range then goodbye Ferrari Anyways here she is.
  11. I can tell you how to fix all those issues in matter on 2 hours worth of work PM me if need help Love your analogy, spot on
  12. Woop woop found the problem I knew this had to have something to do with the recently charged AC, for what ever reason everytime AC clutch tried to engage it would knock out my warning lights, gage instrument lights, fuel gage, climate control. Last ditch effort disconnect wiring pin to AC and voilà, everything is back to normal thank God. For a min I thought I had to replace my GFA module but turns out a faulty switch or relay, now trick is going to find out what is the actual cause of it. I rarely use AC as I have top off (car not me lol) 99% of the time, so I'm in no rush, I think I will leave this till end of season. Thanks again for help boys
  13. Thanks all for helping Yes I read Shamile original post, his sounded exactly like my issue, his turned out to be the GFA module, before I go down that road I want to check everything else out first. On that note has anyone heard from Shamile in a while? I replaced battery, checked all leads all tight and good. I had the AC unit recharged just before this started to happen, I defiantly notice that when my warning lights flash it also affects my climate control unit. When they are not flashing and all is blank my climate control is lit up but operates nothing i.e fan motor does not work nor AC or other functions. When everything comes back to normal then the climate control works again. Just seems odd that as soon as I charged the AC system problems occurred, coincidence ?? Is there a relay that goes between climate control and my dash warning lights FYI my night time lights to light up gages also do not work when the flickering occurs, nor does my fuel gage. Not sure if the GFA operates the climate control as well ???
  14. Just wanted to say THANK YOU to all of those that helped me out last few days much appreciated. I wanted to finish this thread off on a positive note, most of us ask questions but never take time to post the final results. I hope this will help others in the future. Companies and ppl to thank please check with our franchised lamborghini dealer sponsors- they buy all their parts from a lamborghini dealer LS They hunted down a used complete axle with CV Joints with complete rubber, price was decent service was outstanding, they went out of their way had it shipped to me less than 24hrs, Thank you. One of our members aka Limey- My mechanic and I found his original post back in 2010 where he helped another member out with CV joints, tried to contact him via Ph # on thread but wrong number. I never left a message, and did not PM either as I had already found what I needed from LS. Limey read my post and contacted me directly, he had 2 new CV Joints for an incredible price, I appreciated his help and gesture and gladly bought both remaining CV Joints complete with new boots. Thank you Driven Exotics, Steve- To say Steve is a busy man is an understatement, not only did he get me a few cosmetic parts I was looking for but he tried to diagnose the problem with my DR sound, for that I say thanks Steve for trying to help a brother out Quick thanks to others tried to help in my search: Evan at Evans automotive Glen at AMH Carlo at Alpha of Tacoma And a big thanks to all of you that gave me the information, thank you thank you thank you: VCR Huntnphool Topcabron Rayman
  15. Who? Where? Price? After a long exhausting search the only thing it can be is the CV joint, but we are still not 100% positive as there is no major ware and tare, or noise when car is hoisted in the air. Any help greatly appreciated please and thank you.
  16. Wish I could, but hard to come across, and time is of the essence now. I did install my gopro underneath to see if it picked up anything, not a damn thing, you can hear it but thats about it, no vibration, nothing visible soooo frustrating. And thats half of my problem the other half is this grounding issue that knocks out all my warning lights and climate control ARGH!!!!!!!!chased it today for 5 hours tore car apart and nothing obvious as of yet.
  17. I do have the heat sheilds, that was a good guess though,
  18. I had car serviced a week ago, when it was returned to me after a short period of time all my warning lights start to flash?? Everything still runs fine and everything works, it reacts just like when you first start up car, all the warning lights come on then back to normal, but then they all flash on and off for a period of time, or they flash continuously. I keep hearing a clicking noise from a relay in the engine bay, I also hear the AC clicking on and off. I think it is a grounding issue, as when I play with my door pins I can make the gage cluster flash. All door pins are in good working order FYI Is there a specific relay for instrumentation warning lights in the engine bay? my manual does not list those relays. I hate chasing down gremlins any advise ??
  19. Both reasonable guesses but doubtful, as both of those the noise would be constant, the noise I describe only happens after car has been on the highway for 1 to 2 hours. But will certainly have them checked
  20. About a month ago I broke my clutch Rod, nothing to serious easily replaced, but before that happened I was hearing this thumping noise only on deceleration. Meaning that car ran perfect, no vibrations, no hesitations, only a low thumping noise from rear right, and only when you were engine braking or decelerating still in gear. This was after a spirited long run of about 4 hours. We looked at everything, all looked good, fluids all good, nothing loose. After we changed clutch rod no more thumping noise problem solved (so I thought) only after another long spirited drive that thumping noise reappeared ???? Nothing loud just a low thump very slight vibration in seat and only when engine braking or down shifting and decelerating. I check car out again, up on hoist for about 2 hours, we see nothing, get on road and no more thumping. Both times the only variable was long running time and heat obviously. Opinions as I'm at a loss? Noise is definetly behind me, slightly to the right rear.
  21. How the hell did I miss this !!!! Here I thought "oh nice wording on smoking someone in a race " Jesus H, sorry to hear about your loss and dealing with those morons, but cars are replaceable you and your family are not. I'm sure all will work itself out in the end
  22. Hi All Just returned from an amazing 5 day run in the mountains with my DR, car ran incredible, I will post pics soon. But on the very last day at the end of the run returning to Hotel my clutch rod snapped . This has been a reoccurring issue with Diablo's in the past I heard, probably due to heavy clutch. Someone told me there is an updated venison of this Clutch Rod, if so does anyone know where to obtain this ?? Advise please
