Alfa romeo 155 Q4 WB :: 1995 Afla Romeo 155 (2011-03-23 23:56:01)
It goes forward :tasty:, Was out for a ride today. The car running fine and are suprisingly good to drive from 1000Rpm, but its all happens from above 3000Rpm. I Have not tested it properly on road, I don't have plats on.

Some picture of the car on 17" rims, spacers on wheels is 10mm.
The car looks a little bit high without sideskirts.
Thing on to do list:
Remap
Sandblasting and welding were needed under the car
New bushes in powerflex
Mounting of Lester front lip
Air condition service
Bigger breaks .....
Nice five stud wheels...are you planning on fitting them to the 155?
wrinx
The other wheels on the garage wall is for my 159 and 147 GTA. The 17" wheels for 155 is on the last post attachment (black and silver)
Its all starting to come together there. Looks good with those new black/silver wheels. Do you have any spacers on the wheels? The fronts look to fill the arches perfectly but the rears are tucked in a little bit.
In front there is no spacers, but on the rear there is 10mm :eek:. The wheels its not possible to get more out, then the wheels will hit the arces when backseats are loaded.
Do not use backseats then :)Quote:

I saw that in your garage.
Hello there! Nice choice for your q4's wheels. Which are the rims specs? Are they 7,5J? And what tires size are you running? Thanks.
Cheers,
Cristian.
Hello Xti, its not my choice, they was on the car when i bougth it. Its 7 1/2 J with Yokohama S drive tires. Not the nices rims I have seen but it to expensive to change out for new one
I was taking here out for a test drive today. For the first time I could put the trottle to the bottom. It dose'nt go verry well, but its moving :blink:.
Very nice car indeed. It seems you like turbo machine.
Thanks, i love turbo :happy:Quote:

Now the tunning is finnish after a trouble full week. The internal wastegate is to week, and the turbo pressure drops from 1,4 bar to 1,2 bar quikly. We had hoped for 300hk but there is only between 260-280hk :(. I need to get it on a dyno to confirm it.... Anyway the car drives well over 1500Rpm with this race min cam. The tunner thinks this cams makes the car verry slow between 1500-3500rpm, so in the futher i will switch to other cams for better torque
What kind of cams are You using ?Quote:

What Turbo did you go for, because with that sort of setup I would have expected 300bhp to be a conservative estimate.
If you are only getting 260-270bhp I would say that something other than the cams is not right.
Why did you reduce the compression of the engine?
I use the Turbonetics T3/T04e-50 F1-57 .63A/R. The engine was bulid from a recepie of Guy Croft. The compression is verry low because the head gasket is 1,6mm it should be 0,6mm I think (wrong delivery from Walker's).
Another good thing is that the valve don't hit the pistons when (not if) the cambelt snap's . But keep in maind I don't know too mutch about this engine stuff ...
Today I read the engine faults codes with my new bought program. The injection lamp was on. It's show's faulty cam phase sensor (open circiut). Orded a new one today so now I hope the backfire when starting will be solved.
Sorry for the bad English in this thread :lipsrsealed:
Ouch, where did you get that from?Quote:

They have some pc's left 55 £.
The £55 part (7689407 SEN) only looks like the pick-up for the phase sensor not the whole kit. Is that all you need?Quote:

New cam fase sensor is finally in. Some drilling to get it onto the disk, but a easy to nail the new sensor on.
The car is now in a garage of a friend to get some welding.
Wich program have you used?Quote:

Maybe we ought to look into organizing a special winter get together somewhere with snow. A group of Q4s and a snow\ice track would make for a cracking weekend.
Yes Steve that had been a nice weekend. Some years ago the Norwegian Alfa Romeo club arrange a yearly weekend on a ice track. Unfortunatly I never had time to join them. :wacko: But from the report in the alfa club magazin it was verry verry fun.
Fantastic winter car!

Now that looks a lot of fun. I'd prefer a little more run-off though.
Are you just on snow tyres, or have you got a set of studded?
Yes its snow tyres without studd. But when new they are good as studded tyres. In fact this road has up to 17% gradient
