SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


selling my 33 as i cant afford to fix it. engine does not run and backfires out of no 4 cylinder, no idea what has gone wrong with it but ive gone over most things and i cant afford to get it checked out/fixed.

alfa 33 1.5 twin carb (IDF webers) QV manual 5 speed.

all original car, wooden autotechnica steering wheel, new copper based radiator, front electric windows, oil pressure and battery volt guages, manual sunroof, standard 14" teledial alloys with good tread, was told shock absorbers were relatively newish and also the clutch was replaced not too long ago by the previous owner, next to no dints in the body work, paint is showing its age with stone chips and faded paint, only one spot of rust on the very front of the bonnet nowhere else as ive gone over most of the car to find nothing, motor has done 221,000km's, alternator was rebuilt a few weeks ago, relatively new battery, has a hotdog muffler on the back that sounds great not loud at all. can also throw in a set of velocity stacks if the buyer wants them, they have all been bent to an oval shape but can be reshaped back to round with the right gear. gear box is ok, as always 1st and 2nd gear syncros are a little worn but all else are fine.

there is a head unit in the car but that is getting removed prior to the sale.

will be sold unregistered with no rwc.

im chasing a minimum of $800 as these are quite hard to find. great for parts or if you can get it going again its a great little daily.

located on the gold coast 45mins - 1hour drive from brisbane all inspections welcome.

cheers.

thats good to hear, ive also noticed again that on overrun higher than 4000rpm it sounds like a rattle and then gradually as the revs decrease to around 35000rpm its sounds like an off beat ticking, sounds like its a metallic object (say a tiny metal ball) hitting a piece of sheet metal but it varies in patterns the way it ticks, so it could be tick tick pause tick pause tick tick tick whilst decreasing revs in the already mentioned rev range for example. the sounds can be heard coming from the motor but just below my foot well. so it could be the exhaust. if you need any more info i can try and get a video of the ticking for you guys to examine. its alot more audible next to a wall or barrier so i would have to do it with some kind of barrier to make it more audible for you guys.

also ive discovered today i dont have a proper air filter! all it has is this sheet of fine material (looks like some kind of window mesh) just free to move around in there and it serves no real purpose filtering air because its not even sealed so its just moving around in there. so i dont feel safe driving it with that poor excuse of a filter. is there any other alternative rather than chasing down another filter or buying aftermarket ones? im flat broke atm and i need it to be fixed, i was thinking of getting some kind of breathable material and clamping it directly onto the carb for now. or is it fine to drive without a filter? seeing as most people put trumpets on them and dont seem to use filters at all?

cheers guys

also, i have discovered a rattling noise not sure where exactly its coming from but its pretty audiable, my first thought was a big end bearing (i hope not!)

it only happens on deceleration between 3500rpm and 4500rpm. cant hear it on idle light accel or full throttle so its not there on acceleration, its not a constant type rattle its more of a sound like metallic objects hitting sheet metal but in an almost ready to take out of the microwave popcorn like fashion if you get what i mean lol ive read it may be the catalytic converter but i am unsure if the alfa 33's came with one from factory? can anyone confirm this? as i really cant afford it to be a big end bearing! the car has 220,000km's on it so im suspecting if it does have a cat that may be the problem. but if it isnt that or a nig end bearing could it be something to do with the tensioner pulley or a loose heat shield etc?

cheers guys

victor you are absolutely on the money with having fun! i have size 11 feet but ive managed to get used to it already with shoes on after about 1/2 an hour of driving it around my area hehe.

haha nice, i dont think i really need side skirts as this model (as mentioned previously by you) has the black side skirts, which i will eventually get my uncle to color code them with the rest of the body and i personally like the rear bar, not such a fan of the very plain boxy looking rear bar of the TI to be honest. but the TI wing and veloce front bar are a must! plus lowering the car 30-40mm or so as it looks abit like a 4wd at the moment haha, no problem with the wing on the boot hatch it has brand new gas shocks

yes im in queensland (gold coast) but unfortunately im more than 2 hours away and im currently unemployed and broke lol, so petrol would be the main factor here. but i would really love to come, if it had been held later on this year it would have been a possibility. but i will make sure in the future i will attend a alfeta meeting and put faces to names

now thats dedication! all the way from victoria! wow good work!

is there any kind of members cars section on this forum? as i can post there and keep you guys up to date with the little beast!

cheers for now.

ahh yes i see now what you mean, you may be right with the ripping it off part, hehe. i had a similar lip on my old corolla, but it was off an mx73 toyota cressida (improvisation haha) and it also came in two pieces, they slotted together.

i would definitely like to put either the zender or the veloce type front bar on (just the front bar) and also the rear boot wing off the 33 1.5 TI, with some nice wheels and lowered abit and i think i would be done in the cosmetic department

(dont take my word for it on this part below but its what i have studied so far lol)
my car is the series 1 (83 to early 86?), i believe the series 2 33's (86 to 89 i recall?) were the same bodywise but had different interior the introduction of the 1.7l motor and different styled rims and series 3 (90+?) were the facelift models with the long rear garnish between the lights (or tail lamps) and the slantier front end and they were commonly fuel injected not carburettor.

is there a website link for autoshine? actually wait a minute i remember seeing thier business card in my glove box ill have to give them a ring sometime and get a quote

cheers for the replies guys.

anyways i finally got it! haha man its got some balls! and i didnt even rev over 6k yet lol only stalled it once coming up my driveway and the clutch is really wierd as im not used to it. but man does she fly! theres a small exhaust leak as in my driveway it backfired through the carb lol and the guy i bought it off tinkered with the fuel mixture and its running slightly rich. but all in all its awsome! oh and i slammed on the brake trying to go for the accelerator a few times lol but i adjusted the seat and steering column and now its all good, not as hard as i thought it would be, and holy crap does it handle well! i spun the tyres by accident doing a hill start in the dry weather and it just kept spinning until i changed to second! the only thing i dont like about this car is the gear shifter, way too wobbly and i cant tell sometimes if its in gear or not lol.

hi victor,

thankyou for that much needed info, i now can see the differences between the 2.

yes the steering wheel has been changed, (not by me) thats how it was when we put a deposit on it. its an after market one, i can tell my the imprinted manufacturer name (autotechnica).
im assuming the extended air dam is the pipe that connects to the airbox correct? that wont be a problem as i will be makiing up a cold air feed for it anyways.

i have another question, later on i want to give the car a better look and i was thinking about the alfa 33 veloce front bar and Ti rear boot wing, now for the front is it a different shape being series 2 and will it fit properly onto my s1 alfa? and if so where would i be able to find someone in australia that can get one for me?

thankyou for the info again.

never mind guys, had some help on another alfa forum, and they said its a 1.5 Ti Quadrifoglio Verde or the green cloverleaf version with 105hp and much more sportier interior.

hey guys, my name is jason im italian (which is why i opted for an alfa ) im new here and i dont know alot about older model alfas but tomorrow night i will be recieving my very own alfa romeo 33, now ive searched and searched all over the place to identify this specific model 33, but cant seem to get a 100% correct answer. all i know is its a 1.5 twin carb
it has nothing else but a badge with alfa33 and the green cloverleaf (as seen in pictures below) and also has the oil pressure and water temp guages too which i read came in the cgl version.

the add/person who was selling it has stated that its a TI model, but ive also read that its a green cloverleaf model or a cgl model. and on some sites its states that the TI is the 105hp version other sites say the green cloverleaf is the 105hp type, another site stated that the gold cloverleaf version was the 105hp model and then another site stated that the cgl was the 90hp version. im very confused and dont know who or what to believe.

the owner of the alfa said it had dual webbers which came in the TI i believe? (correct me if im wrong as i most probably am)

i would just like some confirmation on what exact model it is (its a 1985 btw) and if its not too much to ask could someone give me a brief rundown on what model is best out of the few stated above?

sorry for the lack of pictures but these were the only snapshots i got with my camera phone.







thanks guys much appreciated, and look forward to associating with you guys soon.
