Im looking to improve the handling of my stock 1600 GT junior.
Id like to keep the original rims for the moment and not lower too much and lose the supple ride.

Anyone recommend the best Fast road setup kit, dampers ect..?

Cheers

Classic Alfa fast road springs and Bilsteins. Made a huge difference on my GTV2000 and doesn’t affect the ride quality at all.

I have bought many items over the years from both Classic Alfa and Alfaholics but must be honest, this is where I would be calling Alfaholics as the choices of specification are way beyond offered by anyone else that I know.

I wouldn’t disagree with Arguiti, however the good old Harvey Bailey spring and anti roll bar set is perfect for road use when paired with Bilsteins.
I think the HBE kit is still available from Highwood motor company and EB spares.
I expect the spring rates of the classic Alfa kit and the Alfaholics fast road kit are almost identical.

Lots of choice and all good.

I would shy away from the eBay ones, you don’t really know what you are getting.
