Beneath the standard exterior a beast lurks.. handbuilt Alfa 3.5 litre V6, RS Suspension & Brembo 4-pot brakes. This is how the GTV6 should have come out of the factory..
Thanks Tom. This is an Alex Jupe 3.5 conversion with RS Racing suspension, and it is just about as stiff as you can get away with for the road. It is intense to drive, very physical - yes, a man's car! However it has completely standard interior and it can do family trips while being very tidy on the circuit too. James
Fucking hell mate that car is my dream I'm 18 and I'm not dreaming about Subaru's Starlet's and all that other crap, true classic Italian sports car is My desire. How's that Alfa in term of break down? Have you got any problems associated with engine, chassis, corrosion? Please reply. Thank you.
Recognise this car...and Jupes old workshop. How long before the engine blew up? I'm presuming it was a Dawie de Villiers lash up from Seth Efrica? Please tell me that crappy GoTech system was unceremoniously ripped out and replaced with something that works too? Car looks good though.
beautiful car and the sound ! is drive it all day through tunnels in second to just listen to that sound ! and not afraid to give it some coming out of that roundabout 😎
Stunning example! Love the way you make this feel like a grueling experience, it shows how intense and implicating driving an alfetta-chassis'd alfa can be. You seem to have a fairly stiff setup with little body roll which makes the experience even more intoxicating in my opinion. I this an AHM conversion? I'd like to have that done to my 75 some day!!! regards Tom
who needs a radio when you have a symphony like that coming from your Busso engine :-) Im also happy to see that both your reverse light are working and enjoying a very good earth :-) Love your car !!
Really nice GTV6 man! The Zender Milano rims look SO good on any Alfa. Your video makes me wishing it was summer so I could go for a drive in my baby =) Just 3 months off snow left in the north of Sweden :/
Hi there. A few questions, what exactly gets beefed up when you do the RS suspension mod? I suppose pretty much coil-overs, and poly bushings, thicker anti-roll and torsion bars etc.? What is done by Alex Jupe to resize the engine to 3.5? I am in South Africa, and have '84 gtv6 2.5, still standard, appart from stainless valves, bigger AFM, and all round POLY bushings on suspension. Was thinking of fitting sleeves and pistons from South African special 3 litre gtv6. This would bring me to 2.8 L
I had a red ‘84 GTV6 (A405 TMB) with factory air conditioning and Ansa exhausts 25 years ago - should never have sold it!
Did you do anything with the transmission? I noticed that you can shift quickly without that 2nd gear crunch

Busso's music
Glad to see your keeping it on the road www.checkthespec.co.uk/mot/A337ANH
12v. Its based on the 3.0 from the 75, which is a direct descendant of the original GTV6 motor. So it drives like the original but with a lot more go.
Was für ein geiler sound und gtv6 ist ein sehr schönes Auto....einfach nur richtig geil.
It does sound incredible.
How much do u want for it
beautiful GTV6
Good one
Thanks for posting , hope you and the car are both well.

@roliradr Yes, this is my Alfetta GTV, representing the 1980s! Ha ha TOUGE indeed, but not in Japan..
I was like "WTF, he's driving on the wrong side of the road! Oh wait..."
James, Is that stoked, bored or both to arrive at 3.5? Sounds revvy (like 2.5), so I'm suspecting bored. Thanks, lovely car.
ohhhh man. what a sweet car.,, i want a black one with beige interior so bad...

Love your car !!
SZ wheels are soooooooooooooo hot on a 116 !!
NICE ONE MY SON
Wheels are from an SZ - needed to put the power down!
When you handbuilt this...did you also milled the block?
The powertrain...hydraulic lifters for Intake & Exhaust?
Hey very nice car! Looks like a lot of work went into it perfecting it! Great job creating this car!
at least someone who can drive it propperly
I want this car more than a bonk on Sam Fox...
Nice! Looks and sounds great!
Great car mate, what is the size of your wheels ?
Amazing engine sound. What is your exhaust setup?
Wow man u look like a boss shifting like that
Beautiful Alfa man, seriously one of the nicest i have seen!
Really nice GTV6 man! The Zender Milano rims look SO good on any Alfa. Your video makes me wishing it was summer so I could go for a drive in my baby =) Just 3 months off snow left in the north of Sweden :/
