I DROVE MY CAR TONIGHT for the first time!!!! Couldn't stand it anymore, the rear camber and toe is not done yet, but I just went ahead and put the side-shafts in there real fast and drove it around for a bit! (2 hours max of over-lapping labour to just pull them back out again at some point to do t...

Are you/they running modified front end geometry? ie increased camber gain/raised RCs (the upside down ball joint/drop spindles provide this as well as the raised roll centre)? The numbers I'm talking about are what works on cars with a geometry that actually works... not the alignments you run to ...

Hey JJ more pics of that 75 please! Also- is the Giuli quicker with the v6? The 80s Giuli with the 3.45 litre 24 valve is a freekin' BLAST now! (Besides, the stupid turbo TS 16 valve won't keep their bearings in the block - even when stock with no turbo...) Here are some more shots of Brad's Milano...

Get your hand off your cock JJ. Don't be such a sofcock Ben... Still pissed off about the rugby...? :lol: Any way, local buddy - Brad - came by the shop the other day to have his cut-and-weld rear camber modification to the DeDion verified and to set the rest of his alignment! It was a good photo o...

Falcons, Escorts, old 105s... :roll: How about we stick to the topic of the 116 V6 GTV6 here and yes, Ron's spring-rates are quoted in kgs per cm. So, up front - without torsion bars - even on a pretty light (for a V6) car, we are playing with 19kg/mm and 20kg/mm on the 3.7s - printed on the springs...

Well, as you know I have been fortunate enough over the past few years to be able to spend extensive time one-on-one with Ron on the subject. I have also driven about 20 different cars with various combinations of Ron's spring-rates. The short answer is that there is no silver bullet here. So many a...

Buddy here in Seattle just came by last nite to show off his 5 x 100 hub conversion and new 5 x 100 rims, along with his HUGE 6-pot/4-pot Wilwood upgrades (outboard rear brakes now) DeDion cut-and-welded negative camber modification and RSR suspension all set up...

Not an Alfa? Sure it is - 3.45 litre 24 valve TT heart! An original South African GTV6 3.0 wheel - from the concorso a few years back - they look nice all 3.0s all lined up like that... Domingos' Giulietta - back when he was still running the turbo 16 valve twin spark... He has since then gone to th...

Any way - some more from back home; My nephew posing in Dawie's brother's twin spark 105 GTV (I think he sold that car now...) Clive Densham's (from Dastek/UniChip) vintage effort - he is DAMN fast in that car - did very well last year... The "red car" - back when it was the "blue car...
