where can i find emma 1.4 thread then can sum1 link me to it
Lots of stuff on all this in the FAQs and guides. So many people have done this now, it's becoming routine!
can sum1 tel me what 1.4engine im looking 4 what are the codes and is it a punto
Done what.....ask what engines fit, what wheels will fit etc![]()
im on ebay now triing to get some of the stuff i need see when you say start off withalfa 155 disks and match these to stock pads for now what do you mean start off with and for now i wont to get what im going to need on thee for the 1.4 16v coz thats what im going for now so should i get them bits or sumfink elsOK, wheels. Since we're not absolutely sure what engine is going in it, get 14" 6J and something like 35et. If you're buying new, Compomotive MOs are excellent but difficult to find secondhand. PCD should be 98mm. Lots of guides around telling you what all this means, but essentially you're after a stock FIAT/Lancia/Alfa set up. Put 195/45/14 Uniroyal Rainsports on them: they're very cheap (actually made by Conti) and suit the Cinq better than anything else.
For suspension, I'd just follow what Aaron put on Emma's car: Aaron is old enough to not lower or over harshen things and brave and skilled enough to test they work. (Emma's dad is said to be older and braver and more skilled) Good guides here to all that.
For disks, start off with pattern Alfa 155 disks: they're 257 x 20mm and vented and cheap from your local factor. Match these to stock pads (for now) and Marea calipers from a scrappy. Kripit has put up a list somewhere, but the important thing is to get the late type calipers (identified by an external spring) and get the wide ones to take the wider ventilated disks.
