Hello from Oregon

I have a 2004 3.0 Spider that will be coming up to Oregon once some work is finished in California.  I look forward to learning from eveyone on this forum and also for sourcing parts as needed in the future....................Bela

I guess that US 25 year rule has holes.

Thanks everyone.  I do need some guidance / help as my mechanic tells me I need a clutch.  Any guidance on where to source would be appreciated. It is 20 spline 235 mm.  I will check back here or feel free to contact me at bsdenes@yahoo.com

🙏🏻

Parts!  Parts will be your biggest challenge given there was no Alfa Romeo presence in north America for the entire duration of the 916 production run. There are some Alfa Romeo specialists shops but they seem to focus on earlier stuff.  Some components do cross over to older and newer models.  Do yourself a favour and obtain a copy of ePer - Fiat/Alfa/Abarth etc. part listing software - that way at least you'll know the part number(s) you need.  

 

If all else fails, plan on some overseas purchases, I have used this source for regular maintenance parts: https://www.buycarparts.co.uk/alfa-romeo/spider-916s/14771

welcome and congratulations! do you have a 3.0 or 3.2 engine?

Try going to the SUBITO.IT site and look for Gtv / Spider spare parts. You can find many spare parts there.

I have the 3.0 engine.  I have found the clutch (was not easy) and hopefully will be on the road in the next month. Are you in US or Italy?

Interesting: I thought all Phase3 916's were 3.2?

 

Funny thing about the clutch:

My 1995 TB had also an 235mm clutch. The replacement one is 228mm which I expected in the first place. Did exange straight away.

 

235mm is standard on 3.2 916 (and 147/156 Gta).
