Fitted the 20mm rear spancers today, they were only £20 for monon ones, worked out around £38 all in including the longer wheel bolts
-
Gtv is getting stored away for now, I want to powerflex the rest of rear end and rust proof the underside before the winter. Got my hands on two original Alfa Romeo spider/gtv part number 5900527
-
Received a parcel today....
Looking forward to getting them fitted now
-
The spider is currently on adjustable height fk's coilovers, so fk springs and shocks...... they are great for cornering with the spider being lower but the shocks and springs are just so hard you feel every bump, dip and pot hole in the road.
the replacements are koni shocks in fk struts, the shocks are adjustable so I'm hoping I can soften up the ride a bit as it's a daily driver now.

Hey guys I'm after the speedster humps if anyone has they lying around or tucked away in the garage.
heres a pic of what they look like
cash waiting :-)
I also have have a garage full of goodies if you fancy a swap for something
thanks Jon
-
Thanks, not long and I'm going to replace the coilovers
im now using my spider as my daily driver and it's destroying my back lol! And the roof is also squeaking now too as the ride is so harsh, unfortanutly even on the higher setting then ride is to firm, so next week I will be fitting a new set will adjustable dampers.
Had as the roof down a fair few days now many the good weather long continue, will get some more pics on soon.... the correct way around lol!

Started sanding down the autodelta rear diffuser and come across a few cracks that will need fixing first before painting. It's actually two parts I wasn't aware until I removed it from the bumper.
a few pics....

Hi guys are per tittle, I'm selling a gtv aero / zender / cup rear spoiler

might be temped to do a sway on something, I'm after some adjustable coilovers for a twinspark if anyone has some.
-
Another nice spider ;-) heehee
Yeah bud I could d try that plasti dip as only temporary and I'm just Saying that I have received a delivery today :-) a full set
-
Agree I like the novitec looks sweet. My lambo wheels have come off and going for a refurb, a silver grey with a hint oh black taken from below
Done the inner and outer cv joints both sides, wishbones, droplinks and fitted both front coilover ( rear still todo) had to taken them up as kept rubbing on the wheel arch liners.
I have also ordered some honey cone grill to try something different, giulia/4c inspired
Lastly still not sure on the roll bars, I keep sitting them up and the. Taken them back off lol!
-
Also the exhaust tip needs to be replaced as it's very ugly the car sounds great for a twinny but it's just so ugly so thinking a nice twin exhaust.
I fitted one of the front coilovers today and like the stance on the lowest settings with 10mm spacers.

Cheers bud it did look good with those blackline wheels I really regret selling them, I have managed to sourse two alloys just need to find two more. I also bought some used roll over bars but no bolts or instruction so going to have to figure out how to fit them maybe have to drill a few holes?
might cover these with tan leather using the back bit of leather off the battered old spare tan leather seats I have knocking about.
Anyway I brought My little red baby out of winter hibernation today and the car wouldn't start......1.9v on the battery lol! New battery bought and fitted and she is alive.
-
Then the other beauties fitted with cup kits mostly off this forum.
Who doesn't love a white 916
not keen on the wheels but great stance and front
Like the humps on this
-
Then theirs the autodelta spiders these have some very nice extras fitted, I really like the autodelta rear diffuser and speedster humps.
very temped by the speedster humps, there just isn't many pics around of them.
-
So yeah my spider is nice but i have saved loads of pics of my favorite spiders i have seen over the years and this is my inspiration to get my spider up their with the ultimate spiders.
hear they are my best of the best, first off none cup kits spiders.
Love the stance of these my first mod is to fit coilovers and drop the car this low.
This silver spider off the forum is also a stunner, I love the wheels, quads and roll over bars, very cool!

First off my spider overall in a good one its a ph1 but looks like a ph2, i have already done a lot of mods and upgrades and It was fully reburbed in 2010, everything was done including full respray, powerflexed, stainless steal exhaust etc. When i bought it i added the ph2 tan mono leather interior, black leater gaitors with tan stitching, chrome door kick plate, blacklines alloys.....now sold :-( a big regret! black roof liner, rosso red centre console and speedo dials, lowered 30mm and a few other tweaks and changes.
At its best i had it looking like this
unfortunately the spider is tucked away in my garage as im doing the wishbone, drop links and cv joints. The current wheels dont suit it and i have a few other things i want to change.
Before she went in my garage, how she is today

Now the v6 is done the plan is to turn my attention to my spider. My spider is in good condition but its taken back seat over the last few years so i want to give it some tlc and turn into my ultimate spider!!!
