Re: Need s some advice on an Alfetta GTV 3.2 V6 24v conversion

Hi 75evo,
These throttle bodies don't have bypass idle screws, I have emailed AHM for advice but they have not responded yet. :(

Re: Need s some advice on an Alfetta GTV 3.2 V6 24v conversion

Hi to All.
Just thinking leave the throttles open just slightly 1-2 mm and the TPS at zero and the ECU to run the engine @ 650 RPM. :?:

Re: SA GTV6 2.5 restoration and few minor mods !

Hi Kev,
Yes I am one of the lucky ones away from the fires but we have a lot of smoke.

I have never seen it so bad as its now.

They stated days ago that 1/4 of the state of Victoria was on fire.

Very scary.

A lot of animals have been killed. :cry:

Re: SA GTV6 2.5 restoration and few minor mods !

My GTV has only one coat of paint I will 600 wet paper rub it down and then give it 3 coats of paint.
I have made a spray booth in my shed which keeps the dust and insects away. :)

My bumpers will be the same colour coordination.

Re: SA GTV6 2.5 restoration and few minor mods !

Hi Kev, Going to fit colour coded bumpers and the inserts will be black.

I should have the GTV finished in February next year.

I would like to thank you guys for the great advice ( JK , Rowan Jackson and yourself).

This website is amazing and we got to keep it going. :D

Once the car is 130 Alfa red the wheels will look great and I will post some photos. I still need to lower the rear 50 mm. I am aiming to finish my project in about 6 months time if ...
