"Hva har du lagt i møssan"???

Today the main focus was to modify the seats. I dislike the position that the seats are stock. So I took the drivers seat out and started to rip the leather apart to get the "spacers" off: After almost two hours using some tips from this guide: http://www.alfaowner.com/Forum/alfa-gtv-and-916-spider/159353-lowering-the-seats-in-2001-gtv-2.html This was a major improvement! I gained a little bit more headroom, and more support for the legs. I felt that the seat also hold me much better in place. I used three 8mm washers from BILTEMA on the middle bolt and one at the rear. The reason is that there is a part of the metal on the bottom seat frame that will rub against the sliding rails...

Update: New exhaust bend from rear cylinder bank is welded in. This was NOT as easy as we thought, but we did the best out of it. Old bend: New welded in: Boost gauge fitted: Indicator stalk repaired: This was the broken spring that caused my Bella to use the left turn signal as she decide... Getting back togehter:

Update: We welded a new bend for the exhaust from the rear cylinder bank and to the turbo. I guess this is familiar to all TB owners that this pipe is damaged. I forgot my camera in the garage, but will post some pics tomorrow!

Hahahaa Of course! But with kamasa socket. It's not that cool actually. It's chilly But really, it is cold and dark. Only for storage. This Garage I have my car in now is in my friends garage that also house a rather tweaked 155, a Berlina on alfaholics chassis and a tuned Chevy Vega Estate Wagon

Hah. Naahh I doubt. I think it is due to the egde that I have to get over when storing the car in the barn.

I started with the preparations for Gran Turisimo Event. First was to check witch ABS sensor that was causing trouble. In the front both had 15-1600ohm. But one is a bit broken physically on the hub. I will order new tomorrow. Then I started with the turbo gauge install. I have chosen to remove the clock and install the gauge in there. I will break the housing itself due to the new hole I need to drill for the gauge. I removed the glass on the boost gauge to make it as similar to the others as possible. Here is some pictures from the gauge. Tomorrow I will remove the catalytic converter and buy the necessary parts to fabricate a "dummy". I will also need to find a way through the torpedo-wall. If not I ends to drill ha hole and make a bulkhead. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice write up on the calipers! In Norway some are making their own alcohol. Called hjemmebrent, or 9-6 (from 96%alcohol) hehe Other than that we're famous for "akevitt" (Aqua vita) which is liquor from potatoes. Actually very good to rich food!

Filip: If you look on the pics you can see that not only will you get answer to your questions, but you will also see that he is using a upper strut brace from a 145..
