    Alfa Romeo Giulietta modifications

    Also I think the Piper cams you listed are for the original Giulietta from the 1970's. Sorry to disappoint there

    Alfa Romeo Giulietta modifications

    As for suspension, if you can afford it go for the Bilstein/Eibach B12 kit at around £750 from Balance Motorsport, if not you can get AP Racing coilovers which are less than £500, they offer adjustable height with fixed damping within a sensible range and are engineered by KW. I haven't listed...

    Alfa Romeo Giulietta modifications

    Hi Rob, I too have been looking at the Giulietta 170 as my potential next car and what things can be done to it to make it more perfect. It makes life a bit difficult that whichever exhaust system you go for, you have to buy all the component parts seperately and mix and match which ones you...

    What's the best investment?

    But if I can find a nice condition unmolested one, freshen it up and keep it (shudder) stock, in 25 years' time, that should be pretty rare, right? Rare and valuable, especially being the first generation of Civic Type R's?

    What's the best investment?

    What about an EK9 Type R? What are values like on those if I could find/import a good one?

    What's the best investment?

    Cheers guys, although just to be clear, if I went for the classic it would NOT be my daily driver, nor hers when I pass it to her; I'd be keeping the GP and she'd be getting a first car that's as near to wrapping her up in bulletproof flame retardant cotton wool as technology will let us get...

    What's the best investment?

    You probably don't know because I don't think I've been on for the past year or so but I had a major life change last year and became a father to a beautiful baby girl. Ever since then we've been struggling a bit having a three door hatchback although its getting easier now she's older...

    Plastic engine cover - a necessary evil?

    Now I want to shoehorn a 2.5V6 in. I expect that conversation with the missus will follow the usual format...

    introduction

    Word up, how are you doing? I'm gradually working my way back to being active here so if you need any duff information or rubbish banter I'm sure I can sort you out. There's a lot of people here who are actually intelligent too, hopefully you'll bump into them more often than you do me if...

    Plastic engine cover - a necessary evil?

    It looks rubbish and now it's got a big crack all the way through the middle. Considering I'm planning getting some uprated leads and hoses and maybe a carbon airbox anyway, do I really need it? Does if offer any vital protection to the engine underneath? Or is it just to deaden the noise of...

    Mishimoto Universal Intercoolers

    Saw these guys advertised in this month's edition of Fast Car... I know, I know, I'm a chav and old enough to know better but it makes me smile. Anyway, it got me wondering... can you have a universal intercooler? And would it be any good? If you could, and they would, isn't <£200 a bit on...
