Ferrari Enzo - Ferrari F430 - Ferrari F40?
None,ferraris may be fast but dont seem to have the exclusivity that lambos have.When you see a ferrari prolly 90% of the time a knoob head is driving it.You see a lambo your to busy looking at the car to notice the driver.Imho of course :D.

fuel pressure reg
The default setting in the ecu when it fails to read the o2 sensor will be to run rich.Have you been told its too rich by someone? I would not expect it to cause lumpy idle though.

HELP!!! Fluid at turbos?
I cant say ive ever had a faulty nissan head gasket.It will be an error with the heads or the mating of the heads with the block.The turbo cracks Mr Bean mentioned will be in the wastgate/exducer housing which is seperate from the chra so no oil/water will mix because of that.I dont quite see how a new gasket is going to cure it.If the gasket was allowing fluids to mix then it should be visible.If not its back to the drawing board.

vtc . yes or no ??
The vtc hubs dont hold out well at high rpm.The internal helix that swings the timing isnt strong enough to hold its position so most people wanting serious power bin it or run BDE sprockets.

Unless your chasing really big power and a high revving engine that needs a bullet proof top end then you should keep it.

95tt brake bleeding prob
The pedal will be spongey with new pads on old discs,Opening the nipples when pushing the pistons back is a good idea as some four pot calipers can flip the seals in the master with the volume of fluid being returned.It should not make a difference that you didnt clamp the lines off unless the fluid ran for ages and let the resovoir run dry.Does it have any pedal whatsoever? Normally when bedding in pads the pedal height wil be low at first till they settle and the biting point will rise.

Vented Bonnet

engine help please
If you did it yourself you would part with around £750 ish parts then another few hundred for honing,head skimming and valve work.The set up should see you around the 400-450hp mark i should imagine depending on mapping and boost run.

Started removing my engine today
Once youve stripped the pipes off the nearside and taken the battery out for access to the bulkhead joins and lines on the inner wing.Shouldnt be a problem Mike.I reckon youll need to hacksaw the bulkhead pipes off though as the unions are aluminium and will round off.
