Laszlo from Hungary

Post by LacUS »

Hi Guys!

My name is Laszlo, and I'm from Hungary. I'm working here in bank's backoffice, that's a boring job I can tell you. :D So, formerly I worked at Hungary's most famous Alfa tuning shop the dcstuning group (http://www.dcstuning.hu ) as a shop assistant, and actually I've started to race cars there aswell. First I was racing my Alfa 155 2.0 TS, that was a street car, and I raced it on amateur slaloms... :roll: Yeah, not a typical car for that.. Then I turned to drag, which has started to being popular at that time in Hungary, in the first year I was second in the championship for cars up to 1600 ccm with a Saxo VTS. In the next year I finally got my dream come true, I buyed a Alfa 155 Q4, with that car I was again second in the championship for under 2100ccm AWD cars. Then I had to sell the car..... :cry: After 2 years of beiing without alfa a friend of mine suggested to try a Alfa 75 V6..To be honest, my love was the 155 Q4, and I tought no other car, even an alfa, could change my mind. Well, let's say after the first ride I was impressed, nevertheless the car was in a shitty shape what goes for power...Anyway I bought it and without any experience in engine building and car repair, I've started to build my own race car for drift/track. So that's enough about me.
My car is a '88 Alfa Romeo 75 3.0 V6 America with following mods:
-ported,polished cylinderhead
- Potenziato cams
-Gotech MFI Pro (self programmed)
- No MAF, stock ignition to coilpacks
- 24V injectors
- custom made stainless 60mm exhaust with sidepipe
- cleaned out, only 1 OMP TRS seat,
- TrePerfomance 255L/h Fuel pump, stainless steel braided fuel lines, adjustable fuel pressure regulator
- 6 puck sinter metallic clutch plate
- 156 GTA Brakes front 310mm Alfa 166 discs, braided teflon line all over
- custom made suspension, Powerflex, Performatek bushings
Here some pics:

And for the end, here are some videos about the car:

I hope we can exhange experiences, about building our beloved car.

Anyway my next project is a CV driveshaft. :) Pictures soon :)

Thanks.

The coilovers are, made by my self, and they need some testing and correction. I used the stock shock, and a I've cut the upper arm a little.
I've saw the topic, some ideas I will use. :)

Welcome to the Forum Latszi.

Drifting? Drags? I am suprised frankly. Bit of a waste of an Alfa chassis me thinks. Alfas to me are for touring, racing, sprinting, hillclimbs, and perhaps rallying.

Thanks :) Latszi? You may have some hungarian friends there, to know the nick of Laszlo :)

So, I think Alfas are made for race :) I don't see big difference between drift and track racing.And because I like to drive my cars on the road also, don't think about heavy mods at the time, however I get more and more inlfluenced by that 3.7Litre monster track car.

Good effort Laszlo. Would like to see more of the supercharger full set up.

Meantime here is my suggestion regarding your roll cage. It needs a couple of braces, otherwise fine.
