If one were to see my car after this weekend's race at Blackhawk Farms Raceway, one would think that I lent the car to Colin McRae to drive. It's covered in...
Mike, what brand springs are you using in the front? The highest 2.5 by 10 inch I could find were 900. What spring rate are you running in the rear?? Glad...
Using 2.25" x 6" springs. I've got both Eibach and Hyperco springs. Some of the Honda guys on the team have been running even shorter springs, which is...
You are familiar with Ron Simmons coil over kit yes? ... From: alfaracing@yahoogroups.com [mailto:alfaracing@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Mike Cudahy Sent:...
Yes, but it is not legal for Production SCCA. It should be a great alternative for other sanctioned racing and/or street use. ... From: Brian Berger To:...
The rules are written such that there can only be as many damping devices on a corner as was stock. In English, that means that you can change a torsion bar...
Thanks for the clarification Mike. I am eager to see your setup. I have considered the RSR kit but… eh… at the end of the day it is still a street car and...
Hi all, Just thought I'd pick your collective brains regarding something that seems to have manifested itself recently. On my SZ, I now seem to have developed...
I have a set of Tar-Ox slotted rotors to install on the front of a Milano 3.0, but I'm having trouble separating the old rotors from the hubs. The rotor...
Andy, do you have 33mm torsion bars in the longer length for the Alfetta and early GTV-6? ... From: Andrew Kress To: alfaracing@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday,...
Driveshaft donuts and balancing for sure. When you go to replace them, the trick is to assemble the driveshaft finger tight, then run the car at idle ONLY....
Bigger hammer. It's being held together by rust and electrolysis. Beat on the old rotor and not the hub. It's happened to me twice in the last month where...
Is this a ES30 SZ? or a Giulietta? If it's the latter you should ignore my advice, I was assuming a transaxle car. If it's the Giulietta, the driveshaft...
The rotors bind on the studs. What I do is put the rotor on 2 wooden blocks upside down the put a piece of wood over the rear grease seal and whack at it....
Hi Guys, Thanks for the answers so far. To summarise: It's definitely not a engine misfire. In fact, apart from the vibration, the engine feels smooth as silk...
yes Mike, i do have them - both short and long. actually, "have them" is a bit of a stretch. sometimes i actually have them on hand. but more likely, due to...
I have been using 33mm bars for over 3 years, and have been really happy with them. I just wish that changing the ride height/torsion bars was not such a big...

I also recently switched to the 33mm bars...big improvement over the 27's. FWIW - there is an adjustable rear torsion bar mount available that replaces the...
I am not convinced that we have found a torsion bar that is TOO stiff. Mike Cudahy reports spring rates in the 1000 range, though I am not sure what his wheel...
