    Good, save em all
  2. Photo Contest - Autumn 2014

    I uploaded a 5-minute contribution as I really want to participate with a proper photo of my GTV but couldn't find the time due to midterms. Let's see if you all like it...
  3. Spider 916 on window sill

    As I'm stuck studying, I couldn't allow myself to sneak off to the garage and take a photo of my actual Alfa 916 for the 2014 autumn photo contest. Instead, I grabbed what I could reach from where I'm sitting now and made a 5-minute contribution. Here is the result...
  4. Filip's GTV TS Clubsport project

    Yes, you're right. The "lips" on the box that are supposed to keep it from falling "into the panel" are too small tho, so I need to modify it so that it stays in place by itself... >_>And fit the fascia.

    Adjusting the windows so that they seal properly... Alfaworkshop has a good guide that I used together with some trial and error. Also removing stereo and curb light cables. I took a chance and ordered a single DIN storage box from some random Nissan on Chinese eBay. Looked like this: The main problem with it is that it's too shallow. It doesn't sit at the bottom of the bracket and there's like 5 cm of air in between so not even close. Might give it a second try and order something similar that appears deeper.

    Thumbs up!
  7. Self with GTV

    Properly dressed for GTV cruising! Maybe those boots aren´t the best driving shoes tho
  8. Spider 3.2 in October 2014

    That color!
  9. GTV 2.0 TS Lusso

    I don't really think the Aero spoiler looks good without the rest of the Aero kit
  10. GTV 2.0 TS Lusso

    Awesome! I want Teledials on mine...
  11. Ciao Alfisti, from Italy

    Sounds awesome! Don't forget the mandatory photos
  12. Filip's GTV TS Clubsport project

    Yes, except they retail at £200+... Powerflex Black money :/
  13. Filip's GTV TS Clubsport project

    New to-do list! The remains of the old list can be crossed out as the exhaust is all new (just missing a fat ass clamp that should solve a small leak), the power windows have been fixed and they are watertight again, happy times... - Mount "new" headliner - Rip out carpet etc - Mount "new" wiper linkage - Remove rear suspension arms, have them sandblasted and painted black, then fitted with Powerflex Black bushes and refitted... - New shocks and springs, haven't decided on what kind to get yet... Won't happen until Spring anyway. - Demister mod might happen.. - Variator swap might happen...
  14. GTV "Cup look" by ToxyMaTT

    Aaw, pity. We want the buyer to stop breaking stuff and Toxy to buy a new project car!
  15. Filip's GTV TS Clubsport project

    It bothers me that I won't get much of that meaty intake sound... And the stupid box and the bracket weigh a ton, but... It works, even in rain
  16. Filip's GTV TS Clubsport project

    Thanks guys! I experienced the combination of heavy rain and an aftermarket filter... Will go OR just because I don't want any issues in rain.

    How's it going??
  18. Filip's GTV TS Clubsport project

    Long time, no posts... Can you guys tell if something is missing (apart from the filter, duuh ) on this OE filter box? I drove in heavy rain a couple weeks ago and the engine started running bad/rough injection light flashing randomly, coughing and misfiring. It seems fine now tho, so I think it was caused by a drenched air filter. Maybe you recall that my car has an aftermarket cone filter that was just standing on the bracket with a sponge in between to keep it from rattling. Evidently my ghetto filter mounts mean that it's sitting too close to the ground when it's raining. Solution: old filter box gets a second chance. Can you recommend a drop in upgrade filter or would you go with the standard type?
  19. Another Cornwall hello

    Welcome! Well done you, resuscitating a 916
  20. Turbo Brutale

    My thought exactly I envy you a bit for a trip like that.
  21. My third 916 : Spider 2.0 V6 TB

    Nice! 5x98? ET?
  22. Spider 3.0 V6 RHD production numbers anyone?

    Can't help with the production figures but I like your thinking!
  23. Turbo Brutale

    Shame, yes... I won't be able to go either but on October 12, it's trackday time at Sviestad just outside Linköping. Just a 7 hour drive or soething (guessing) from Oslo. You coming?
  24. Turbo Brutale

    Like! I'm jealous... Was going to go to an open pit lane event today but guess what? I realized that I forgot the fuel cap at a gas station the other day and when I returned like 24 hours later, it was gone. Tried to get hold of one locally today but failed. No trackday
