Alfa romeo 156 3.0 V6 (the real GTA?)

[AlanV6]

done some measurements today




front camber is 3.5° negative, outside wheel on full lock goes to 5° negative (inner goes to 1° positive) ideal for corners Thats why she doesnt have understeer

Caster is 6°





another 2kg of brackets and screws was removed

Test fit (lip spoiler made of some plastic profile)



I managed to mount the oul cooler more perpendicular to the road for better airflow, and made some "intake" around it from 0,5mm alu plate. Installed hazard lights too




I'm playing with idea of some led lights for front, i really dont need them for trackdays, but just trying how would it look...

dirty girl

[AlanV6]

I made her a strutbar so she doesnt twist too much








third connection on the firewall




And some big air filter

This is so cool. Love all the fabrication you've done- lines up beautifully.

Still waiting patiently to hear what it sounds like!

[SWH]

Superb :-)

Certainly beats chasing various gremlins around our GTV too...!

Trackday yesterday! It was fenomenal, i had minor crash with another car (he didnt see me passing) but nothing that some ductape couldnt fix

Haha! Love the scream when you do the drift.

Mental.

The car sounds like a bag of angry cats. You are a bloody fast driver as well!

Epic car and epic driving

engine fitted

Nice project. It sounds lovely and seems to go very well. Do you have any dyno figures for how the engine mods worked out compared to a standard engine?

[AlanV6]

no dyno figures, just 0-200kph time on my previous gtv, stock 26secs after mods 21secs.

Insane.

Fantastic work! Personally would have left the interior more intact but at least you are using it properly!
