Should we be expecting an update this weekend mate?

Only ask as one of my mates is getting his Alfa 156 GTA wheels done by A1 down your neck of the woods and the guy there mentioned you'd been in today because my mate is getting his wheels done in a very similar way to yours on the R32.

The alfa wheels have a pronounced lip on which is going to be polished and the rest of the wheel done antracite.

Just me getting carried away!

My mate's R got stolen a few months back unfortunately. He replaced with an Alfa 156 GTA for the short term to absorb a bit of the financial hit that it caused him.

He's getting the Alfa teledials done in the same style, should look really good, will post pics once he's had it done. Think he's going in to a1 a week tomorrow.

Quick update:

After my Track session at Castle Combe last month it was more than obvious the car needed some help in the handling dept. I spoke to VWR and decided on the KW springs.

Not sure by how much they have dropped her but I'm pleased with the results. She seems far more sure footed through the bends with a lot less roll!  :happy2:

For some odd reason the springs for the .:R come in yellow as aposed the the Racing Blue the rest of their kit comes in?  :chicken:




So weve gone from this:


To this:


From this:


To this:


And some more:




Chuffed!  :happy2:
