Re: Build pics of my alfa gtv6-Thread officially closed!All done

On a side note - Don't be too harsh to Alfa. The only part of the current V6 that's Holden/GM is the block itself, everything else is designed by Alfa. I'd hardly call that a "Holden engine". They still certainly have an Alfa growl to them, veyr nice to drive. Anyway Garth, good luck with ...

Re: Build pics of my alfa gtv6, its finished! Video-25th Oct 08

It's a 75, but either way, it would be fun! I've been planning on doing a little road tripping down for a decent event (Alfesta, Spettacolo, Auto Italia) and meeting up with some fellow demonised Alfas. :twisted: I'll be sure to let you know if I do head south. Alternatively, come up and discover th...

Re: Build pics of my alfa gtv6, its finished! Video-25th Oct 08

Give yourself some extra credit, a 160kw in a WRX is between all four wheels, so greater drivetrain loss in comparison to the GTV6. It's great to see you finally got it going. Makes me so much more eager (and now that I'll have time) to get into the shed and get mine sorted. Then you'll have some co...

Mark as Read

Ok so since the upgrade I've noticed that I can't get the 'Mark all as Read' function to work correctly in a particular section, however, it works for the whole forum. For example, if I want to mark all threads as thread in the 'Performance' section, click the link and it does absolutely nothing for...

Wow - what a sound! I can only imagine how that v6 is going to fly. Here's the link I found your video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCz0uc7gm-w You have to love the bid RED light on the dash ... I don't know how many people have asked me, "what's wrong?" over the years. :) congrats!...

Re: How high do you rev?

It's an Alfa, it's MEANT to be driven hard.

If it's cold I never let it over 3k, once it's nice and warm and if there's a moment that allows it, I'll wind it out to redline. Still going strong.

Re: Introduction

Hi Rookie Rox, The torque on this graph is high indeed and I originally thought is was an error on tagging the correct file. However another Alfa Fan told me the following: <snip> I think that the above quote makes sense and hopefully everyone agrees with this. Please let me know if this is correct...

Re: Welcome to the new AlfaGTV6.com forum

[quote="Giuliettaevo2"]The new lay out looks fine to me. But i also have to agree with greg and barry about the red... Maybe if the frame was a bit bigger it wouldn't be such an issue. [/quote] I agree with this. If it were wider, it wouldn't be as noticeable, but still provide a bit of vi...

Re: Custom exhaust - exhaust note question

Sounds very nice ferrari!

For the record, the resonant buzz in your other video (the 21 second one) is exactly what mine sounds like. Frustrating..
