What have you done to your Maserati today?

[Zep]

Wheelworx promptly collected buckled front right alloy and took that, and it’s gloss black replacement from Eurospares, away for a colour change and tyre swap.

Discs still looking good

 

[Felonious Crud]

That's probably worn away after 12 years. They've come up well and there's a lovely smell of leather inside.

What did you use?

Funny how the appear tiny on that photo.. 380 mm discs are rather huge! Yes still in great shape and all 4 uprated discs are much appreciated every single time I drive that car!

Does this upgrade retain the OE 6 pot callipers or are those different callipers too?

My hands...


Just some old autoglym leather balm...

retains standard OEM calipers by using a custom bracket supplied with the discs and larger pads. I had uprated rear discs fitted too.

Started , and took for a wee drive. I seem to have a misfire at high revs, and a bit more than usual popping and banging on the over run. No codes though, but assuming it's running too rich?

Definitely worth getting it checked out

 

[Cyclone1]

A day off work, so a chance to get both cars out for a drive whilst the roads are still dry. Very different drives, but equally enjoyable.

As Bebs said, he retained his original calipers. For an early QP, you can easily retrofit the OEM 6 pots to cars with 4 pots. Happy to advise how if needed.

Thanks Bebs and Zep. My QP is a prefacelift Sports GT S Automatica and came as standard with the 6 pot callipers and the 360mm Brembo dualcast discs.

My discs are nearing the end of their life, so this could be an interesting upgrade.

Make sure you fit braided hoses as well, makes a big difference. Think Zep can supply those too now.

I can indeed.

It would be great to get a rough price. Not sure if the prices have come down on discs? Seems that the GT's has some of the most expensive discs out there.

I believe there are several options available. You’re best off dropping Zep a PM.

Funnily enough saw a white Fiat Coupe parked up in the middle of Edinburgh recently. Still look wonderful.

Splashed out on the car today:

 

[drellis]

Ive done what I do normally, which is look at I and not have time to drive it ( blocked in and I always seem to be in a rush) Also small matter of no mot awaiting mechanic change wheel bearing.
But it's a nice thing to look at

 

[Big lou]

Still waiting for the insurance to replace my headlight and respray my bumper after someone reversed into her in a car park.

Anyone else miss their car this much?

Old - but how old? - Apparently after a couple of years the chemicals start to degrade, or something like that - still if it works........

 

[RoaryRati]

Remembered how engaging and chatty he is - grumbling on rotten road surfaces, telling me when to give him a bit more juice and then popping and burbling with joy
