Full suspension kit
The ultimate performance upgrade for Alfa Romeo 116 series cars including 75, 90, Giulietta, Alfetta, GTV, GTV6.
This is nothing but a revolution for the 116 series cars! This kit takes your car from the 70s right up to 2020 with just one days work and better yet, no drilling, cutting or other modifications of the car is necessary!
The goal when starting this project was very ambitious, it had to feature all possible modernizations, solve all weak points in the factory setup, work with several sizes of brakes, work both on road and track, have a modern geometry, easy to adjust, and be serviceable around the globe.
When i started driving Alfa Romeo many years ago i built my own suspension parts due to the lack of aftermarket parts, when doing so i got much appreciated help from fellow Alfisti with experience of track driving and racing.
Aswell as studing race cars, educate myself in the chassis world and most importantly built and tested several prototypes through the years both on road and track to come up with this kit.
So is it possible to combine all this in one package?
Yes it is but the key part to accomplish this is the upright, the upright makes it possible to use a stronger axle with modern wheel bearing(156).
A flipped lower balljoint like the IMSA cars gives a much improved roll centre and camber gain. A lowered steering arm is correcting the bumpsteer that usually occur when moving the balljoints location.
The upright is also more compact which reduces scrub radius with wides tires.
By using 156 Wheel bearings(155 for 4/98) we get access to three brake sizes, 284, 305 and 330mm which will fit in 15″, 16″ and 17″ wheels.
The shorter steering arms makes the steering faster without the need to remove or replace the steering rack. This way you can use the servoassisted rack which usually is impossible and this is a big benefit as faster steering otherwise will be heavier.
To achieve all this the suspension is designed as a complete package, that means the upright will not fit the factory wishbones, the brakes will not fit the factory upright and the wishbones will not fit the factory upright as they differ in dimensions.
By using OEM style joints we get the rigidness of a uniball but with better comfort for road use, that is one of the key reasons together with adjustable damping that the kit works so well both for road and track use!
The track version use 1:1 ratio dampers and harder springs with helper springs and spring holders and thanks to feedback from race car drivers that use the kit aswell as our own tests we can help you get near the right setup for your car directly, we can also supply the kit without coilovers if the customer wants to use a brand that can be serviced locally.
The brakes comes in three sizes and the clearance needed in the wheel for each size can be seen in the pictures above. The 330mm GTA discs are heavy so there is also a much lighter two piece disc option.
All alloy parts are made in billet high strength anodized alloy for maximum lightness, strength and durability, steel parts like the lower wishbone are anodized and powdercoated in a paint that is very strong and hard wearing.
This means a massive weight reduction, 12 kg or more depending on the brake size!
All parts are made here in Europe to ensure highest quality and near contact with suppliers.
Included in the kit is every nut an bolt, brake hoses, tools, steering arms and dust boots to make certain that nothing will be needed when fitting it to your car, this makes it not only an amazing upgrade but also saves you the cost and time to rebuild the factory parts when restoring a car. For a race car it will take you out on the track in no time, just fit, adjust and go!
A brace is recommended for street use and a must for track use, see our braces on the product section.
