Sup
My name is Johny (Johny is a ''codename'', my name is Luis lel), and I'm a lawyer assistant, making Law University! I live in Rome, Italy! So, I was looking for a car (duh) for me, actually, someting specific, an Alfa or a Lancia. And, I found this 155! It looks pretty...stock? Yeah, stock, but not that stock, it have Fiat Uno SCR rims (wtf) and engine is fucked up (is an Alfa Romeo Bialbero 1.6, WHY THE HELL SOMEBODY MAKES THIS SWAP ON A 155?) Also, front bumper is a bit fucked up, but car is rust free, and ''brand new'' interior! Anyways, I bought it for 300€ more survey (10€) and things like gasoline, oil and stuff (60€)! Also, I'm looking for another car too, but, we can speak about that later. Anyways, that's it for now, stay tuned! This post was edited by Johny_Bravo (2016-02-27 06:18, ago) |

Maybe for economy?
Hell that doesn't make sense at all, I think the original engine probably blew up or something, then someone put a Bialbero on it... |

Nah, not in Bialbero, thanks, Phonexius!
Anyways, I took the Alfa for a ride today, with the speed of a tetraplegic turtle of course, because you know, Biabero 1.6 for a 155... And yeah, I just made the engine run, still on shit conditions, but, running But it was pretty fun yo And, I just fucked up my front bumper a bit more, but is good because I found an original bumper for sale here in Italy, is 90km away from here, going to take it in a few hours! But now, I still looking for a few things as: -HKS or any good Coilover -Brembo calipers and disks -Good rims in 16' -And a engine I could fit good on the Alfa If you have any of this, lemme know, please, the price too! Also, still looking for another car, so, yeah, if you have some car for sale, lemme know too! That's it for today, stay with bad taste these days! |

Pictures and how much, please!
Added 1 hour 18 minutes later: So, I bought the new bumper! Perfect condition, now I'll go to Department of Motor Vehicles later to get my new license plates, and after that paint the bumper and polish the car. Also, got some coilovers on eBay! (Here in Italy too, thanks god) I must get they soon! Now I need a brake kit, and the engine, it will probably be a 4JJ Turbo engine, given the fact I didn't found a viable V6 for me. Also, still looking for another car, I'll try to speak with Nick (from Nick Imports) later, for may get a cool JDM or USDM car, if not, I'll go to some dealerships here in Rome for see something!

Okay, so, in the last hour I just painted the bumper, didn't need to polish the car because was only dirty (point for me lol)
Then, I left the bumper paint drying, while I go to get his license plate at Department of Motor Vehicles! Now, I'll just spend the rest of the day rolling around Rome for see if I can find any good car deal, or any good parts for Alfa! |

Okay so, since I didn't found anyone more who could fix the Audi rust, paint and stuff, gonna send it for Ward, on Spain.
Also gone to Departament of Motor Vehicles to make the Audi plates, all gone well there! And, fitted the 4JJ on the Alfa, provisory stuff, but good for now. EDIT: Forgot to say, 4JJ is converted to gasoline: Replaced fuel lines, TBI, new injectors (changed diesel ones for spark plugs) Then I made a flange for a higher head gasket, a bit more than 1mm for make less compression! Runs like hell, love it! Also got the coilovers for Alfa so the car weight looks way better now, brakes arrived too, just need to install then, gonna do it later. Now, still looking for rims for it, wish to find it in a few days! Also: This post was edited by Johny_Bravo (2016-03-01 00:46, ago) |

Nice swap!
Did you have to replace a lot of stuff like fuel lines when you installed the 4JJ? That's a turbodiesel engine, right? |

Sup, so, hm, I just bought a front lip from Doge's Dope Shop (check his shop out, is pretty cool!)
And, well, fits quite good on the Alfa Also bought a ducktail for it Also: I FOUND THE FUCKING RIMS FOR THE ALFA!It looks AMAZING in my opinion, front fitment is a bit bad but I'll fix that tomorrow, and rim is used but in perfect condition, anyways, I love how it fits! The Audi RS2 is with Ward on Spain, getting fixed (I wish, if not, things will get pretty bad for his side lel), wish it get here tomorrow, so I can go to Japan with Ward!
