Can the brake force regulator thingy be tested before I fit it again? Looks nasty but it didn't leak until I started pulling on the pipes and the two front ones threw in the towel... Terrible photo, sorry!

Looks like lots of fun! Just a 2900 km drive from where I live W/o sound proofing... Enjoyed the video.

You guys know exactly how heavy they are? How big is the difference depending on the material used? .

You should change that smiley for a happy one because your GTV is a spectacular sleeper! Old cars is a double edged thing. Restoring parts to their former glory is great, but cleaning up after other people's repairs is... Not so great! Happens to all of us tho. Keep up the good work!

What a project! Keeps escalating all the time tho Explain the rear shock mount problem again, please?

ATE most likely. Check out my thread and compare the pictures of my ATEs to yours.

Spring is in the air where I live tonight! To a Swede, this means at least one more blizzard before real spring but hey, I'm happy

1411 is not too bad then What coilovers are you using?

Nice! I like the color and the custom built twin tip exhaust. I want something similar on mine The wheels not so much, sorry

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the M-tec discs. The price is tempting compared to other slotted discs.

Looks near perfection to me! The ride height looks just right.

I'm gonna be outrageously hung over in a couple of hours, but this looks friggin' awesome! Thanks! I'm not 100% sure that it's the actual regulator. It could be a brake line right on top of the regulator that's leaking. It does feel like there's a hole (?) in the casing between the four brake nuts on top of the regulator, tho! Disassembly to follow...

I need your help! Does anyone have experience with the brake force distributor mechanism on the rear axle? Mine spontaneously started leaking this week and I discovered it today. Didn't have time to remove it entirely but it's coming from the top where the brake lines screw into the housing. Has yours failed? What happened? How did you fix it? How many months' pay did it cost? Can it be removed from the brake system without issues?

We're cursed by Biltema products... Thanks GTV-TB for the links to the diagnostics equipment

You sure? I stole them from my dad... they are ooold, just like him You missed that the red creeper is from Biltema, though?! Have you done research on connecting to the ABS ECU? Dunno if it's possible to get info on broken sensors out of it without expensive hardware and software. Do you?

Today's work went OK. Brembo 284x22mm vented discsEBC Yellowstuff (DP41061R) padsHEL braided brake hoses (ALF-4-120) Not the prettiest brake line, but the important thing is that it's not too sharply bent. The factory one is horisontal rather than sinusoidal like mine This is my second time working with copper pipes so I'm still improving with each one I make. The one on the right hand side of the car actually looks prettier Hopefully, there won't be any leaks. I haven't filled up the system yet because I want to fit my rear braided hoses first. On the ABS front, there are good news. All my wheel sensors are OK. Doesn't solve the problem, but now I can cross that off the list. A mini guide: This is what you need tool-wise, more or less. The two lower circles reveal two hex bolts, the size of which I don't remember It's not necessary to undo the lower bolt of the seatbelt but it's nice to get it out of the way. The arrows show where the side panel is tucked in behind the door trim and sill with "hooks". I started by prying out the plastic rivet to the right and worked my way from the right, ending up in a situation where the only things gripping the panel are those hook-thingys. A gentle pull makes them let go. An IMPORTANT NOTE: Since my project benefits nicely from weight reduction, I didn't re-fit the side panels. In other words, I have no idea if you have to remove the sills or other trim in order to fit them again. This method of disassembly is quick and does not break the panels, but you may have to disassemble more things in order to fit the panels again - I don't know! Pull the connector apart gently and set your multimeter to measure resistance in Ohm. Mine has different modes like 20 ohm, 200, 2000 and so on. The ABS sensors are supposed to have a resistance of 1400-1600 ohm, as far as I've learned so I chose 2000. It turns out that 3 of my sensors had a resistance of roughly 1500ohm while the fourth had a resistance of just over 1400. Guess that means they are all OK As you can see, I also ripped out the sound proofing pieces of foam that are glued to the body behind the panels. Later, I will source a decent glue remover (Alfaduden's beloved Biltema might have something? ) but it's not a priority yet. Next step: Locating the right fuse box and the right fuse for the ABS control unit.

Niiice! Got winter tires on I see. Twin exhaust tips looks really good actually. Maybe better than quad tips since you don't have a Cup kit (like almost everyone else ) ?

The first set of 17" wheels look a lot like the Stilauto Ghibli. I don't like them that much, but I still bought a well used set ... I like your mods. I think I can speak for everyone in here and say that we want pics of the brake upgrade!

Eeeey! Anyway, tomorrow I'm hoping that I can finally get the brake lines and hoses done. I got some 3/16" copper pipe that will join the factory steel pipe using a special connector that makes flaring the steel line unnecessary. According to some mechanics that I talked to, at least. I pray that no Alfa weirdness makes that impossible...

Whenever you find the time My primary goal is to not get carried away with mods...

Yep, my car is a toy. Tire wear in the inner shoulder shouldn't happen if I drive it like I first intended Damgreg, I like the looks of that. May not be right for you but looks good to me. Do you know what OE part number those long ones have?

If you say so... Did the character if the engine change now that you've replaced the pierburg valve with a manual boost controller?

Officially jealous. Mine's on jackstands still, it's below zero and I don't have any winter tires.... But I'm happy that yours runs like it should

Enjoy! Perfect for me! If it happens, I know that I use the car too much for grocery shopping and not enough for pleasure driving in the country side Seriously tho, do you know roughly how much the camber changes from this individual mod?

What's wrong with added camber? Do you have the OE references of both sets? How much longer are they?
