    Could you talk about the difference in handling and drivability before and after your upgrades? Great videos, thanks. I love seeing views of suspension parts where the geometry of the part is clearly visible.

      Well, obviously it’s night and day because the old stuff was just worn out. The new stuff really is remarkable, its such a great ride around town and on the freeways but also a gem in the canyons. Lots of money but totally worth. Can save money by skipping some of the aluminum stuff but that also might be part of the lightweight feel of the car

      Thanks for the reply! I have the same spring kit as yours, it was a difficult cut and grind job. I have a 6” x 6” x 48 inch billet of Al 7075 to make the quick steering arms

      Sorry, I sent the other message before I was done typing, an iPad thing. Anyway, I’m experimenting at making the 7075 quick steer arms. I also made adjustable drop links like the Alfaholics ones. I want the geometry kit, but can’t afford one right now, I’m old and unemployed, so look hard for used Alfaholics stuff. I also bought the Wilwood calipers from Centerline. A great purchase for a non race car, or a very light one. Mine’s a 72 spider, and this is the second time in 27 Years that I have done this, so it is already seam welded, and has an old Eraminus frame stiffener. I also have the bearing ant special plastic bushes for the Alfaholics t bar, I also want to make 7075 trailing arms!

      Nice work Fritz! Mine was lots of fun when I combined its good handling with the CARABINIERI stickers and blue light

    Entertaining video.
    Owned a 1750 Guilia .. Liked it.. although the Trans was Trash and Steering was too heavy.
    My subsequent 89 Civic SI genuinely outclassed it in every possible way ... beyond "style"
    Just a reality dose..

    What kind of power are you getting from the car? 90’s hp? Did you do any engine upgrades?

    What suspension is this? Alfaholics offers different options.

    • @thetumanshow
      @thetumanshow  Год назад

      It’s basically their Stage 3 Fast Road Suspension, with the adjustable 2 1/4” Spring kit. Upgraded to the aluminum arms and few other changes. Lots of money but it rides and handles great
