@@DeathByKappa Alfa doesnt make electronics, they buy it from Bosch, microchips, wires, sensors and so on! They use the same electronics as they are in Audi, BMW, Opel, VW, Mercedes and more! I drive only Alfa's for 16 years now, why i never had any problem whatsoever with electronics or mechanical parts? Alfa never left me on the road, whenever i go i reach my destination without a problem, but strangely enough i have seen plenty of german STATE OF THE ART cars that are sitting and waiting for road assistance
10:27 fun fact, when they launched the Z3, they actually balanced a 7 series on the A pillars to prove it didn't need a need rear roll-bars. Weirdly enough however, a year after launch they installed roll bar mounts to the car and included the roll-bar as an option .. then the roll-bar itself became standard fit later on (it's a nice mod to do to an early Z3 without one). Guessing they had a few 'incidents' early on so quietly updated the car .....
@@CGCTV I'm guessing they all learnt from the incidents of previous models that thought they could make an A pillar strong enough. Delicately balancing a 2 ton vehicle is very different to flipping a 1500kg car over and dropping it, like a roll-over.
That test drive of the BMW gaves me flash backs to the first test drive my mate and I had in the home brew turbo 1.8 mx5 that we done. The stupid giggles when it first hit boost and made turbo noises and the test drive in the dark smiling like idiots 😂❤
@@simonwillgress I don't know but I would think you're looking at £1k+. A nice Milltek etc cat-back is £6-800 depending on the car and they're mass produced. This man is an artist with a welder.
Wow, off everything that I watch on UA-cam that has something to do with cars, this really is my favorite series to watch! Everything fits so well. The chosen cars, the people, the editing, the challenges, the music. Big compliments!
I never thought I'd see another car channel that I enjoy watching as much as I do Mighty Car Mods, but here it is. You and Taylor very much have the perfect energy for eachother much like Marty and Moog! Keep 'em coming!
I've gone off MCM lately... not enough nuggetness! and too many subarus! 😂in all fairness, when they did the Golfs I lost a lot of interest in the content and never really picked it back up! Preferred the series like 2wisted vs 2sexy or wasaabi, or the vtec mini!
As fantastic that would be , it’s unfortunately unlikely as the Banks brothers tend to build 105 , 115 chassis cars and other transaxle Alfas . I don’t think FWD interests them 😢
Wow Taylor’s BMW sounds awesome, and you gotta love a Alfa Romeo V6 Engine, especially with Rich’s magic worked on the exhaust. I had the V Reg 2.5 V6 156 Alfa Romeo few years back with a cone air filter & stainless exhaust system ( can’t remember the brand / make ) but OMG did it roar . . . . . Daniel.
130db is a crazy high sound limit for the course, glad the fellas came in under. I would have been surprised if they went over... we had a B16a EG civic racecar with a side exit straight pipe (terminating before the rear axle) and it was 121db
I've been watching you for years now. I just decided to do my first "ring the bell for notification" on youtube because I never want to miss any of your videos. You & the guys rock
I think they're awesome man. We got very few in the states and I've always loved the way they look. The power figure for them is also very good for the time they were in production here.
Can't beat that same day listen too your podcast and a new video. So glad your planning on weekly podcasts and they are hitting no.1 🙌 well in love the podcasts 😀
Greetings from the USA! Great video! As a big Alfa guy, I love the 164. I owned two models. I'm going to restore a Milano Automatic! Yes Automatic! I'm in the wrong country unfortunately, as I love and owned more than 50 European cars. I'm getting old now so I'm not going too fast anymore!
Every time I watch these I’m on my phone but truly, Alex’s videos need to see watched on a 58in TV. Will watch when I’m in front of mine. Also, if you guys ever get in to another time when you need another mechanical pair of hands just call.
Both cars are looking n sounding good, shame theres not time to do an exhaust on the jaaaaaag Will do once this series is done i hope they do a race between taylors mini cooper s n the z3 as that would be really interesting to watch
Hey.....that alfred alfa needs a front splitter....then rear wing.....then most of interior removed and bucket seats? Think make alot of difference.... Peace. Wing and splitter off ebay possibly..

Let's be honest, ALL Alfas come with a shady history 😮
🇮🇹 👤👥👤💰 🚘 🏭 👨🏭
tell your friend to lower his tone when he talks about Alfred lol. he should be thanking you that he gets to work on such a noble steed
Alex oooo I want see more and longer videos love this channel bud
where's the van builds?
Is it just me or is does Taylor look like Private sponge from dad's army
Rich dropped that clutch like a real man : D
Absolutely
That was the highlight of the video! Hahahaha
The mechanical sympathy of a man who has skinned his knuckles in a freezing cold workshop too many times
Totally
Rich does not muck around
The circle of mates/mechanics and contact's you guys make as the channel grows is just awesome to see, highlighting great tradesmen and taking them along for the ride and hopefully helping their business grow too.
I just turn up 🤣
Indeed, the number of companies willing to help is nice … yet we’re stuck with a deal on Car Vertical, while we need suspension parts, brakes, etc. 😂
13:24 Rich just making the sickest burnout a Z3 has ever done while being the chillest guy ever
Rich is funny as heck, especially when he's tired and insulting. Hope to see more of him.
jaw dropped when those valves fully opened on the alfa 😂
I genuinely thought the valves were already opened
@@Sbinott0 not the only one!
Alfa make good engines and bad electronics. It's the Alfa way.
It gave more of a V8 growl when it was fully open

I dont think it was incidents it was legislation as youll notice all convertible had roll over bars fitted, either fixed or pop out

@@ConnorHammond very true
@@CGCTV MX5 begs to differ
Go watch Eddie Hall driving a tank onto a Z... was fun.
2:49 Some channels might feel the need to hide their big reveals behind a shiny or sparkly sheet. Not Autoalex! Just uses an oily chamois.
Watching this just brightens up my day. Alex has so a good network of people around him now, any shitbox can become a hero.
I have a feeling that Rich is going to become even busier than he already is. Excellent workmanship 👌🏻
Rich is a legend 🤣
That test drive of the BMW gaves me flash backs to the first test drive my mate and I had in the home brew turbo 1.8 mx5 that we done. The stupid giggles when it first hit boost and made turbo noises and the test drive in the dark smiling like idiots 😂❤
DTM 155 exhaust would be perfect :D Rich did great job even if he didnt care!
Yeah twin upswept tailpipes with a heatshield! I was so hoping that's what they'd go for.
I mean if they're going to go for the DTM 155 exhaust they may as well go for the big wing as well...
I would need another set of those I'm making a 155 dtm myself hahaha
What’s the cost of an exhaust like that from Rich?

That's just great. Insane sounds from that new Alfa exhaust and the Z3 supercharger. Imagine what Misha could do with that Z3 on the ring.
Rich and his buddy are heros. Also, these cars are turning out really cool!
think I need a quick 18m44s break
I felt this, lucky I work from home
Hold out ur hand
Are you hiding in the toilet again 😂
@@beany1987 🤫😂
That alfa is just pure car porn from the 90s❤.
Love this series man.
Keep up the awsome vids💪
This trip is insane you guys make me yearn for my own trip to the ring

@@lankyboy90hopefully they will start building the Gemini soon
Alfa is incredible. That sound is incredible. Want one immediately. Maybe before my retirement Alfaholics will make good 164 restomod.
As fantastic that would be , it’s unfortunately unlikely as the Banks brothers tend to build 105 , 115 chassis cars and other transaxle Alfas . I don’t think FWD interests them 😢
Honestly you’re about to hit your Donut Media moment - UK style. This content is epic 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
That Alfa sounds so good with the open valves!
Loving these series vids. Give us 25 minute episodes lol. Gutted when it ends😂
even an hour
That Z3 sounds so good with that supercharger!
Edit : That Alfa sounds AMAZING!
It makes supercharger noises! 😁😁
Superb work lads, can't wait til these get to the Green Hell.
Rich is proper no nonsense, i love it
@ 5:00 when you are discussing tail pipe selection I am screaming "needs to have a DTM twin"
Same
Bro i made a mess in my pants when that alfa turned over 🤤 😅 fair play Rich ....and Taylor for getting that supercharger working 💪
Cheerio! Strength! GODspeed!
Wow Taylor’s BMW sounds awesome, and you gotta love a Alfa Romeo V6 Engine, especially with Rich’s magic worked on the exhaust. I had the V Reg 2.5 V6 156 Alfa Romeo few years back with a cone air filter & stainless exhaust system ( can’t remember the brand / make ) but OMG did it roar . . . . . Daniel.
Was it a Cybox by any chance? I had one on my 156 V6.
This is the best content in car UA-cam! ❤
This is such a mega car, man. An absolute steal!
Cracking episode, the price off the cars aswell and the mods make them so much better. That alfa sounds amazing.
All of you are legends,your reactions are amazing,your videos makes people smile...keep up with the good work 👍
This channel is fantastic!!!
great episode. love the schoolboy excitement at the noises!
130db is a crazy high sound limit for the course, glad the fellas came in under.
I would have been surprised if they went over... we had a B16a EG civic racecar with a side exit straight pipe (terminating before the rear axle) and it was 121db
Best series yet! Seriously feels like im watching a TV show, mad respect!
Rich did my z4 exhaust about 3 years ago, I still love it and was very reasonably priced!
That Alfa sounds proper naughty and the supercharged BMW look fun to drive 👍
I've been watching you for years now. I just decided to do my first "ring the bell for notification" on youtube because I never want to miss any of your videos. You & the guys rock
What an unbelievable sound that Alfa makes! Loved the the episode as per guys!
what happened to the new video?
Yeah it's been removed 🤷🏼♂️
The amount of support from fabricators, suppliers etc. is awesome to see and - in my humble opinion- well deserved!
Wher did the new video go. Im sure ther was a new video out today and now its gone. Am i missing something 😢.
Had a notification about it, was just about to watch it and it's disappeared
Must have pulled it. I watched half of it earlier, then came back to watch the rest now and it said it was unavailable.
Not just me then, thought id pressed something and hid it.
@@JordanKilliardme too
wish u guys did a 5cylinder too xc
In love the look of this car❤❤
Defined should have went with the 90s DTM upswept exhaust, single or even double. That would have looked epic 👌🏻
Even if it’s a bit crappy, I’m actually really into this Alfa. I love the looks, especially the two tone colour contrast with the black plastic 😩
I think they're awesome man. We got very few in the states and I've always loved the way they look. The power figure for them is also very good for the time they were in production here.
Can we get an update on ALLLL the projects? It's been like a year since you bought the S2000
Hey Taylor, a nitrous kit will add cooling to an engine...
Can't believe these cars they're all absolutely amazing in there own way!
Get the yellow speed racing or bilstein coilovers for the alfa 😀
12:25 It only has one guide on either side, two in total.
Greetings from São Paulo! I have one 164 24v and a 156 TS! I loved the super sound! 🍀
When Taylor changed the valve on the new exhaust, the reaction of Alex said it all! 120db though.. ,,👍👌
Both cars are sounding amazing.... Rich is the man if u understand his dry kill me now humor hahhah burnnnnn out babyyyyyy
Can't beat that same day listen too your podcast and a new video. So glad your planning on weekly podcasts and they are hitting no.1 🙌 well in love the podcasts 😀
Rich is a lot like Tom 😅 between them theyve forgotten more than i could ever learn 😂
Loving this series so far Alex and that exhaust is meaty. Id love to know how barney is getting on, cannot wait for the rest of that build
Best UA-cam channel ❤❤❤
Taylor’s Z3 sounds fabulous but the 164QV sounds amazing and I’m so jealous of Alex owning my dream car even down to the colour 👍🏻🏴
Brilliant.
Your network of companies and sponsors etc is so broad. It's incredible to see how you've grown as a channel.
Top video as always
I put a custom exhaust on my 3 litre Busso 166, sounded even more epic than they usually do.
Stainless rasp very nice
Absolutely gutted I missed you guys at the ring last week, I saw big Pete up at Apex and the big boy out on track 🇩🇪💪
With a Bruno sprinkling of induction, engine tuning and race setup. I think the z3 has you in the twisties.
Wow that Alfa sounds amazing! 😲😍 Love the supercharger whine on Taylor’s Z3 too. 👌🏻
I have a massive want for the 164. I'm enjoying this series.
Epic❤ loving the z3!!
ALEX!!!!! ¡! I CAN I PLEASEEEE BUY THIS CAR WHEN THE SERIES IS FINISHED, LOVE U
Loving this series 😂👍
Greetings from the USA! Great video! As a big Alfa guy, I love the 164. I owned two models. I'm going to restore a Milano Automatic! Yes Automatic! I'm in the wrong country unfortunately, as I love and owned more than 50 European cars. I'm getting old now so I'm not going too fast anymore!

Hi Alex if you need parts for your Alfa in Raynes Lane Station area (Harrow London) is a garage were you can find lots of parts
This is Gold! Love the Alfa 🇮🇹🍀👏
Both cars are looking n sounding good, shame theres not time to do an exhaust on the jaaaaaag
Will do once this series is done i hope they do a race between taylors mini cooper s n the z3 as that would be really interesting to watch
Was thinking the same thing. Piss off tavarish by giving him a loud exhaust without the valve 😂
Deffo my favourite you tube channel at the moment
0:44 that photo 😂😂😂
Great choice, Alex, the Alfa is a beast!
this channel needs at least 2 videos a week!!! 1 video is not enough
Taylor does seem like the kinda guy who would like a heart shaped exhaust tip and I mean that with the utmost regard! Much love guys
You can genuinely see the stress in Alex face getting these cars ready! But great job to you all.
That Alfa Romeo is so freaking cool!
Why was the latest video deleted ?
was watching and it was just gone
Same here! It’s just vanished. I got to the suspension getting unboxed 😢
I didn't get to see any more than the thumbnail 😢
Yeah man wth
My guess would be 5 seconds of music in the background somewhere lead to it being copyright claimed, so they've removed it to re-edit it.
That Alfa sounds amazing
I got EBC pads on my F6 Typhoon in Australia they are awesome!!
These episodes are simply not long enough. Give me mooooore!!
Amazing series. The BM is sick ! Well done everyone
Seeing you guys and your cars just makes my day. Cheers for all of you 🍻
This channel has quickly become my favourite 💯
Lads this page is in the top 3 motor pages that I always watch.
Does the supercharger kit not use the Eaton charger same as on the r53 mini?? Could of used the mini pulley rather than the bodgery??
The alfa and the z3 are sounding awsome
Hey.....that alfred alfa needs a front splitter....then rear wing.....then most of interior removed and bucket seats? Think make alot of difference....
Peace.
Wing and splitter off ebay possibly..
Rich is a top bloke he did my E46 turbo intercooler and exhaust
Those wheels look epic
Rich is some man for one man.
Great channel. Would love more videos uploaded weekly
