Re: air induction kits for 124 2.0 and other mods

dont use K&N on the alfas, it will damage the MAF sensor, you are much better off with either a simple drop in panel filter or a BMC CDA kit.


ebay seems to regularly have supersport alloys up for grabs, there probably your best bet too.

most people on here have painted their stock calipers rather than complete replacements, get a wire brush, tin of hammerite red and a small paint brush, give the calipers a good dressing with the wire brush to get rid of any dirt, slap on a few coats of paint and let dry. dead easy

depending on the mileage of the car you may be best off going for a shocks/springs kit from the likes of eibach to lower the car. the shocks are typically good for 60000 miles so if the car is nearing this change the lot, average drop is 35mm.

wouldnt bother starting to add side skirts TBH, the 147s looks are great as they are, there is very few kits actually ehnance the car but if you must id advise going for the GTA skirts/bumpers/spoiler etc
