I thought the V6 engines in the old Thema's where 2.8 litres, not 2.5?

The newer thema's got 3.0, and that's basically the same engine as the 3.0 Alfa (from Alfa 164). Alfa got another head though.

WOW. Nice shine to the black....... Thanks! Believe it or not, I've actually used something called "Owatrol rust oil" on all the plastic details. I got a tip from a fellow Norwegian Alfisti. I applied the rust oil in a thin layer using a small sponge. Let it dry/get dust proof for 24hours...

Dan's GTV6

Hi guys! I bought my 86 GTV6 for about 6 weeks ago. I also have a Alfa Romeo 156 Sportwagon as a every day car. The GTV6 has been sitting in a garage for the last 12 years, so I thought it was about time to bring it back to life :) The car has 67000km on the clock, and I think that is correct. The c...

Some pics:
Seb, do you now if all 75-fans fit the GTV6, or do I need to find fans from a particular model and engine size?

There's not so much Fiat left in the new Alfa's either.
Now it's even worse with GM engines....

The engines are supposed to be pretty good though, according to friends of mine that have testdriven the new 159.

Thanks for all the feedback guys! I've ordered the CSC headers last night as that was the best system I could find for a reasonable amount of money. I got a qoute for a custom made system, but that would cost me 3 times as much as the CSC-system, so I figured it wasn't worth it. MD, the CSC system a...

Thanks for the information Greg! Another advantage with the CSC is increased ground clearance over the original headers. How is the IAP-headers in this area? I've read that the CSC offers about 2-3mm of extra ground clearance. Does anyone know if the IAP headers give any more ground clearance than t...

Sorry guys, it's Norwegian not Swedish :wink:

This car have just got a new lucky owner.

The car has got at least 272hp at the rear wheels from a 1.8 Turbo engine. The dyno-bench couldn't mesaure more than 272hp, so that's why I don't know the exact number.

Clear front signal lenses - GTV6?

Hi,

I've seen pictures of GTV6 with clear front signal lenses, which replaces the orange one's integrated in the front bumper.

Does anyone know where to buy these?
Does lenses from other cars fit?

Hi MD,

Nice looking car you got there!!
I looks like you got Borbet A wheels, can you post a picture that shows better how they look on the car?

What size are your rims? 8x16" or 8X17?

Best regards
-Dan

Borbet A on GTV6?

Does anyone have pictures of Borbet A wheels on a GTV6?
I think the wide lip on the 9" rims would look good.
