It's, out now and when checking my clutch, you know the "while you're at it syndrome", I see that I need a new one. I wondered which unit you used, the...

I have never heard of the stuff. Can you tell us a little more about it, how you use it, and where it can be purchased? Thanks-Tom--- ... the ... smaller ...

I just talked to Bill MCGrath regarding the front struts on my 86 2.5 ES. They actually wanted 350£ each. That's about 650$. Wow, that's quite amazing...
didn't someone say something about volvo 240 struts? or something like that? and a bushing was needed at the top, otherwise they fit? perhaps you could get a...
Anyone have information about this, please share it.. Personally think, 650 is a bit over the top. A volvo strut will perhaps cost 50$ here, so that would...
Talked to Lenny at Auto Italia today and he gave me his new website address to look at and pass on to the group. It has pictures of parts he has for sale and...
I am looking into the possiblity of converting my Carb 2.5 ES to injection. As far as I can see, I have a couple of possibilities. 1. Source the parts needed...
hi all i' on the way to buy a biturbo from 1984 whats are your opinions about this car ? is it reliable with carbs engine ? actualy i have some alfa romeo and...
If the car's in good running condition, you will find that it makes similar power. Check for rust and take a little time to browse the old messages; there is...
Hiya all! Sorry for the long hiatus, but I've just not been down in the dumps lately... but I'm feeling MUCH better now :). As for Shiva, she's leaking like a...
The best solution is simply to rebuild your current ones. Just take them out and send them off to a performance suspension shop and they should be able to...
It's possible, but you might find that by the time you're done, it would have been cheaper to buy a running injected car. As far as I can tell, the biggest...
Are you kidding? Put the $20 cavalier disc that you can get almost anywhere into the car and call it a day :). I've had one in Shiva, and it's lasted well...
my 84 biturbo does not like to idle. The car had a problem starting awhile back. I replace the fuel filter with one from MIE. I drove the car about 4 blocks to...
Nice to hear from you again! After some discussions with my mecanic and the info from you, I've really turned down the idea of an injection conversion. But,...
Thanks again Chiba! I have decided to buy a used set of struts from Lenny at Autoitalia. Instead of 450$ each it will be 100$. So I can then send my struts off...
ahh you got it a bit backwards. the carbed cars are easier to tune and fiddle with. the injected cars require a new chip to be burnt for any change you want to...
Welcome back, Chiba. To anyone who may be interested, I no longer have access to my own website, so don't look for any updates anytime soon. :( Chiba, if you...
