Had two of those 75, but this was the best one! Only two owners since new when I bought it and almost 90000 km on the clock! The GT caught fire in the right headlamp. The fog light is a weak point on all 147/GT and Fiat Stilo. The socket for the lightbulb tend to loosen up and then the bulb touch the plastic in the lamp and the heat that generates is enough to finally catch fire...

What is there to say? 22 years old and stupidity raging over sensibility... Easter sun, fields covered with snow and a white van I did not see untill it was too late. If the car had ABS I would manage to save it, but my skidmarks started in my lane, crossed the line, and BAM! So it went from this: To this: To This: To this: Well this was last weekend in November. Still driving on summer tires. Dry and nice roads, just stopped to fill my Statoil coffee cup. Drove off, talked to a girl on the phone while I were on my way home from another After a while enjoying my hot coffe and as the night fell my dashboard died and a fuse said "poffff"... Car still ran good and I stopped after a few kilometers to check the fuse. When I stoppet in the Bus lane I noticed smoke from the bonnet... Popping the bonnet and flames came towards me! I walked calm into the car and took out passenger floormat. Tried to kill the flames, but the mat only caught fire... Then I collected my bag, jacket, money and most important the cup of fresh coffee while I sat down and watched the fire wishing I had some saussages and marshmallows After calling the fire brigade and insurance a lorry driver stopped, asking If I needed help to extinguish the fire. I said; -naaaaaaaa Fire brigade is on their way.. But before I managed to finish my sentence the lorrydriver had found his powder apparatus! I felt for because now the car was full of that powder-shit, and that will NEVER disappear! Anyhow. Fire was out and fire brigade came. A tow truck collected the car and I was given a lift home... Miss that car. Was unbelivable nice to drive after Chip, Eibach pro-kit springs and dampers! Sorry for creating a walk down memory lane for my sake. It was not intended

Must be! Only Alfa I did not have trouble with more that normal wear and usage was one of my 75.. Untill I totalled it after an overtake
-
Awwww how cute is that!
-
What's happening? Where is the irony and humor here? Please admit that Alfa aren't the most reliable car... After all a Honda k20 would suit the GTV better hehhee And don't forget the Ferrari owners that have to watch their cars burn up! Hehhee. By the way, my old GT jtd caught fire while I drove it! So I know the feeling of a hot car! ;D

Multi gauges is smart! I would also like to monitor oil press and temp. But the design on this one are not my favorite. Alternatives are this: http://www.google.no/imgres?imgurl=http://www.lancershop.com/customer/image.php%253Ftype%253DP%2526id%253D6681&imgrefurl=http://www.lancershop.com/customer/product.php?productid%3D6681&h=256&w=400&tbnid=sf7Ki9MXWCjxSM:&zoom=1&docid=ACVkN5QBFC7lPM&hl=nb&ei=dnFRU7iLK6XMygOfqoDAAg&tbm=isch&client=safari&ved=0CD8QMygHMAc http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/gauges-auxiliary/spa-design-turbo-boost-oil-pressure-dual-gauge

There are some nice twisty roads towards Caen Haha
-
Haha Found this on the internet today...
-
It sure looks tidy, the GTV. I like tires as well
-
Hard to come by i guess...
-
You're a crazy man! I think you have a fetish for wheels!
-
A friend of mine is selling his "red style" interior.... Should I stay black, or change to red dash, and rear shelf/panels.
-
hehe but you also have a soft top, witch doesn't damp very much sound
-
Ja, hörlurar typ Peltor Optime 3 får bli med... (Peltor headset have to be brought with us...)
-
I have no end silencer... And no Cat... so this will be my only one under the car except the pre cat in the downpipe....
-
More expences! After removing the catalytic converter the centre silencer had enough and the car is now spitting out glass-thread from the silencer... So after hunting for a used one before I leave for the Nürburgring trip I found out that it was only one good solution... It's gonna be LOUD! Hopefully after meeting a TB with straight exhaust, this will not be that loud. After all it is a GRAN TURISIMO, and I have to cover almost 2000kms on autobahn... So I don't want to be death when arriving Nürburgring.

No need to drill new holes. Just put a 2mm sleeve round the 10mm bolt through the mounting holes
-
I have seen now that KW offers coilovers to V6.... Hmmm Wanna buy mine Filip? 5000,- and they're yours! I'll bring them to next trackday meet in Sweden!
-
Only solution is INTRAX. Cost 2000€ though!
-
Pant flaskor och burkar! (Recycle bottles and cans) 7000 and you have yourself FK coilovers
-
Not so great... TS is close to 50/50 distribution already...
-
Ah! I always bring a cardboard box with me when driving. Just to take up space so that my missus don't have room to join! But I love the sound of the early TS! Reminds me of my dads GTV That I learnt how to drive in!
-
I'd rather buy new original badges that fade after a couple of years...
-
Fit them NOW! And review!
