Your camera man is better in front of the camera than everyone else on your channel! 😜👍🏻 I'll let you get my Coupé on the channel 'when it's finished' 🙄 I've told Alex he can have a go too. I just need to get the thing put back together. It's had a lot of work carried out over the last few years and it needs the interior painted and installed now. Hopefully it'll be ready for the end of summer this year. It had 416bhp for years and was rather wayward, even though it was mapped with low torque for a more progressive delivery (wasn't fully forged then). I've had a roll cage and Quaife ATB diff fitted in an effort to get the power under control. It's now 100kgs lighter than standard has a far more aggressive 450bhp 370lbs/ft 😁 I also wanted to improve the spool so lots of flow work done too. Gearboxes on these cars do go and have done for years. I think the consensus is around 380lb/ft and the 5 speed is stronger IIRC. The gearboxes on the earlier 20v Turbos were different to the latter. The latter ones have a better feel. It would be good to see you buy this one, so that's my vote 👍🏻 Race it against the fezza.
Guys you should call this one "rattle snake". Its turbo sound is very unusual, in a good way. To check what I mean - 11:20 - it sounds exactly like a rattle snake
Just adjust the rake of the wheel - No need for italian driving position in a Coupe. 😎 And altho my Coupe was ’only’ 340hp it really benefits from OMP lower front brace (for Alfa 155) which eliminates torque steer! Mine had a 3” downpipe so I had to reroute the brace a bit, 30min job. The only gearboxes breaking in Fiats are the GM/Opel boxes in GrandePunto’s and Croma Mk2’s. But yeah, I’d much rather have the Fiat Coupe than the brother Alfa GTV (same car under the skin basically). So much better as an all round car, faster & better looking too imho. And - actually - its super safe on track! I did 8.36BTG on Nurburgring easy, without knowing the track. With my current Bmw Z4M Coupe I still can’t come close. THAT is a car that wants to kill you! 😂

James is ace! more of him on the channel please. not easy driving and talking about what is going on
Great he will like this comment. He will be on the channel alot more. Thanks for the feedback
Buy it bro!.....That Coupe is a Monster and a Keeper. Leave it as is and give it every thing it needs.....Badass!!!
I own a 20vt coupe, what an amazing unique looking car they are with insane performance, had my coupe sprayed lime green, looks mint!
My favourite car of all time 👍
Mine is exactly the same as that. The turbo is like an on off button. Mental
Ant, buy the damn coupe ! 👍

@@DanDD1 top G glad you enjoy them
needs a quaife diff, makes a world of difference
What turbo model is It? Thanks
ANT!! 🥳
Noticed at 17:40 when revving the engine, there's a slight whirring sound. My Coupe does the same thing when it's warm, curious as to what it is
I think its normal, i have one now and i had another in the past, they both do it.
Ant I would love a shot of this 😂
Ant buy the dame coupe
How do get it past mot in this country?
Buy the dam coupe

No.
@@autosportivobedford so it's got the inline 5 from the Coupe? Or does it have a different engine entirely. 400bhp is big power
James and the Supra please……
Ant buy the damn coupe
