I got the foam at a furniture recovering business. The original foam was breaking up and no point in re-gluing the headliner. It was a bit tricky to get the...
Hey! * whatever was the culprit. You just have to take one thing at a time. In the end the problem is usually solved. * I took the car out for awhile and...
<<The tricky part is to glue it back onto the roof and to have a way to hold it there in place overnight while the glue sets.>> Turn the car upside down? Mike....
Hi there again!! On my car and jarles it seems there is no eccentric nut fitted its just the hydraulic tensioner pushing directly on the pulley bellcrank and...

Still hate it when 4 Biturbos start having problems at once. ________________________________ From: Tony & Charlotte Beck [mailto:T_CBECK@...] Sent:...
That is what a group on nice looking female friends is for to spend the night in close proximity with holding the headliner. ________________________________ ...
What is being said is that the Biturbo brakes are basically the same as the BMW 6 series brakes??? If this is true than can one use a high-performance...
For the early 4 bolt cars. I suggest that you perform a search on this topic and then you'll discover a lot of posts on this subject. The simple answer is no....
Dear Group: I agree with the people who believe that this "crushing" of Maserati parts is complete and utter nonsense. It is marketing ploy, plain and ...
My car is the early 4-bolt (4x98). I did a search and looked at the mods performed, and I understand them. Certainly doing what Matt did would be MUCH less...
Then you know as much as anyone else. So you'd be willing to modify the rotors each time you need new ones? I'm not aware of any early Biturbos that don't have...
All I can say is "Crush Away" The thousands of lbs of parts crushed are probably seized engines, rusted bodies etc. Wit Rezdoc out of the maserati business, he...
Yeah Bob, you're right. I'll stick with described modification rather than risk $1500 worth of brake parts. I'll have two sets of rotors drilled at the same...
I was looking in to this and what I found is there's a difference in the 6-series calipers between the early 80's model (i think 80-81 or 82) and the later...
Yeah but it's not exactly that simple as they used both styles simultaneously so you need to check. I did a lot of research on the ATE website a few years...
Man I know what that's like, you're spun in a circle of parts numbers until a package arrives at your place a week later provoking raised eyebrows. Good times!...
Hey! I think that getting some Brembo discs drilled, grooved and greenstuff pads will be a swell upgrade. Will work far better than original if not just as...
There's nothing to indicate that the complete kit would fit. With some or a lot of modifications to the kit and your car it "might" but it's a total crap...
Opened the plenum, linkage stuck open. Problem resolved. Now that the brake calipers have been rebuilt, still have shitty brakes, plan to rebuild tonight the...
I was thinking of redoing the front hydraulics to match the later single circuit design. In the shop manual both variations are shown and the master cylinder...
BTW: Found that 633Csi upto 1982 are the correct 4 pot calipers. Prices range from $57 to $99. This seems affordable for a little experimentation. ... shown...
As the front brakes are identical to a BMW 2002s, why not just put on a 2002 vented front brake kit? This one looks good: http://www.racetep.com/bigbrake.html ...
Sounds like just more trouble to me. The 4 piston calipers are a lot nicer than those big single piston floating types. If there's not corrosion in the caliper...
<<Have you put this kit on an early Biturbo?>> No, but I had a BMW 2002 for many years and the brakes are the same - they make the same annoying squeal and the...
Once you know of a Biturbo that has one fitted let us know. The guys that did the Subaru fitment are pretty knowledgable. One of them used to service Maseratis...
Drilling 4 concentric holes and boring out the center are not complex machining operations and brake rotors are far heavier, structurally, than they need to...
While everyone is thinking brakes... Looking at some pictures it looks (and I stress "looks") like the rear calipers are also from a BMW 633. Can anyone...
