G'day

Can anyone tell me if parts are available in NZ for Alfa 145 and 146.

I have worked out a way to fit the 284mm front discs from 145/146 twin spark cars from about 1995 to 2000, to my 16V Sprint. With appropriate brackets I can do this with the existing calipers. The same disc was fitted to a number of Fiats and Lancias, none of which were ever sold in Australia. I don't have the Alfa Part No's but have all the dimensions from the Brembo website.

I would appreciate any advice as to their availability and cost in NZ. If they are not available, my next step is to source them from Europe.

Thanks & regards

Hi Ken,

Would the 155/156 front discs fit? I've seen a place where they are at least easily obtainable in Aust.

Cheers

Hi, thanks for your reply.

According to the Brembo catalogue, the 155 2.0i 16V Twin Spark 1995-1997 should be the same. 156 I think are all 5 bolt wheels. Who can I contact to check it out?

Regards

I'm from NZ but I only bother to read the General and Maintenance & Repairs forums.. I just noticed this thread, but it looks like you've found a solution in the 155 discs.
