Re: Alfetta GTV 1800 Track day project
Hey Kevin. What do you think of a custom hub cap for your wheels, perhaps powder coated and an Alfa centre logo?

Re: Alfetta GTV 1800 Track day project
Nice little project Kevin. Could do with a more flashy front nudge bar...Got a feeling Zamani has got a spare one going cheap.

Re: lithium battery for race car
Hey Buddy what's with moving all the furniture? Are you running out of room in the engine bay from installing that V16 you have been hanging out to do? Getting any battery out of the heat zone is always a good idea. Alternators also prefer to have a cool life. However, with DC operation, it is also ...
Re: Squeeeall
Kevin, Insults are not your style. You are the cultured guy from Saut AAFRIKA. Keep it straight and your usual cool. If you are looking for a new you, take up sky diving will ya? Remember to not be concerned with the new parachute style with all the holes in it, they are for guiding the glide path. ...

Re: Squeeeall
You possibly have two problems. Exactly as Zamani has said PLUS the sort of brake pad material that does that all the time due to its formulation..Ever heard it on busses or trucks pulling up when they squeal like sheit at the last few turns of the wheels? Given the age of your ride, sounds to me li...

Re: "Patches" MD's Final Racing Project
Hi PietereQ
The lowest configuration that I have had is 80mm ground clearance.It is the only reference I can give you.
Refer packaging for ball joint details. I believe that Kadett had them over there

Re: GTV6 Door hinge pin replacement help
Well done big guy. I would suggest something a little more precise. Remember the body posts are fixed and the roll pin should be held captive here to force the door hinge to pivot around the pin. Therefore the body posts should have the original dimension with wear only on the door hinge itself. To ...

Fracture or other failure of the heater hoses behind the glove box area ?? Loose hose connections of same?? Minor pin hole causing a spray top that area ?? If it is not coolant but just water, it is condensate from the TX valve area of the air con gas lines that has lost the insulation wrap to preve...

Re: GTV6 Door hinge pin replacement help
Hi Michael. Just thinking on the run here. Not a job I have done before so this is a suggestion to get the topic moving. The hinge pin is called a Roll Pin Obviously the pin will only come out by some form of impact. Getting a direct square on the bottom for a PUSH impact is problematic. Therefore I...

Yes it does Zamani. It is turbo charged. No idea how much boost.

Re: The Orange Cab -MD's New Racer
Hi bteoh. The frontal profile of the Alfetta GTV whether in 2 or 2.5 guise is an almost perfect design and very difficult to mess with. Very hard to get spoiler effects so they don't break off during trailer loading/unloading especially if the vehicle is lowered. I threw this one on to merely protec...

Re: The Orange Cab -MD's New Racer
I know that in the northern hemisphere you are all tucked in and sitting around the fire hugging that tablet for company while we are fighting off bushfires, flooding and enough sunburn to fry eggs on the bonnet (hood). If you don't have enough boredom in your life, try using 5 minutes up on a vinta...
