Does someone have installed Alfa 6 front brake on a GTV or 75 ?

I don't think so. They won't fit easily and are sooooo heavy...... If you want a bolt on 4 pot caliper and don't care about weight, try the volvo 240 (girling) calipers with 284x24mm discs from an SZ.

Search the forum and you can read up on what everybody did.

I own a rusted Alfa 6, and so I have the caliper.

What is difficult to fit if ?

Keep the 5x112 of the alfa 6 is not a probleme for me.

I have the Volvo 4 spots, with the 164 rotors and master cylinder.

They work great!

H,This has been covered in the old forum if you want to check it out..
To answer your question,yes,its been done here in S.A. You would need to use the complete upright assy.
You would also need to set up the geometry again..Its not my choice,but it will work..

I would like know more about the wrong camber, and the difficulty to correct it.

The best solution, is to put 1 brake line to 2 brake lines or adapt the master cylinder of the alfa 6 ?
