You could try these guys:

Alfa 33 Tuning - Sportfahrwerke - Alfa Romeo Shop

But Im sure you may be able to find someone closer to home that can help, maybe even a local specialist?

careful of your sump once you lower it though. Ive driven one that was dropped 35mm and it was very close to the road on speed bumps etc.

Good luck with your search

Ahmotorsport class f springs would lower the car by at least 40mm but then you need the shocks shortened unless you go for fast road kit from koni with eibach spring which would lower it by 35mm max.

Get some Superflex suspension bushes - they are made in Australia so you shouldnt have any probs getting them!! Do a search for springs and shocks and you will find that many companies will ship worldwide.

Re: WHO MAKES 33 boxer supetions parts

I have a set of very good set of Leda suspension from my recent fast road / track day 33. I was in the process of selling them for £120 to a Dutch chap - but for some reason it doesn't seem to quite work out. They are quite well used but very good and reliable. They are 2" coilovers with height adjustment. I bought them second hand and ran them on my everyday car for about 3 years - before I sold the car in bits. I kept the shocks for the next project - but moved on to a 156 GTA.

They are for sale if you were interested, but postage to Oz is never going to be cheap. Although they could go by sea. From memory they weigh in total 20Kg.

Regards,

Edward.
