I heard it runs a 1.4l from a Daewoo Lanos – sick!!

I bet it does 250km/h

Seems like everyone has something to say about this chap with some stupid comments listed above. Personally, I give credit to EVO 75 for having the guts to install a 24V in his 75. I would like to see other club members with a similiar setup! Majority of the workmanship was completed by him personally which also makes a statement, instead of paying someone thousands of dollars. If anyone here feels that they have acquired all the skills to build a car such as EVO 75, then please go ahead and present the vehicle at this years spettacolo.

In all honesty he hasn't influenced the club in any way or form and should be treated fairly instead of suggesting that he is a "hoon". I just wonder how many people have had some fun in some way with there alfa. Almost all of us at some point of our driving history.

Alphie75, if you want to idolise a 75 - make sure you check out the turbo 75 run by a club member, properly sorted and actually used on the race track instead of loser burnouts

There are other Alfa's around melbourne that are well sorted not just the turbo 75 run by a club member!!!

Sorry for the confusion, he is a hoon. The club was founded by people who would now be refrerred to as the same.

Not questioning the vehicle setup at all, it is an impressive vehicle ... just could be put to more responsible/better use.

.....

It was a 164 24V, but he converted it to GTA spec.  That's what he told me anyway. 

that is a LOT of work if that is true, different crank, conrods ..... and that is only the start ..
may be easier to just find a 3.2 engine

[ARQ164 Shane]

it's the behaviour and NOT the motor .If he was anywhere near my 3year son at the time doing a  burnout on the fuck steet
I would ki___ him THAT THE POINT.

[ARQ164 Shane]

SORRY FOR THAT BUT
GOING HAVE A COLD SHOWNER.

I'm sorry that you feel that EVO 75 has been harshly judged - guessing he's a mate of yours?  I think putting a video up on public youtube of doing burnouts does open yourself up for some criticism, as does his behaviour at Spettacolo.  I'm personally not a big fan of burnouts and mostly got them out of my system before I turned 21*.  Would never claim to always be below the speed limit, or not to enjoy driving quickly in the twisty bits on public roads - but I don't put videos of my efforts on the tubes either.

My stupid comment (250km/h) is a running joke on this forum, wasn't intended to insult Mr Evo again.

Total respect to EVO 75 for building the car, it's a big effort and very tidy.  I read the posts back then on AlfaBB, and watched the videos.  Impressive stuff.  Still a dickhead for doing burnouts on the street.

* except for on dirt, in my brother's go-kart.  that never gets old.  private property btw.

I don't think I said that there weren't, but whatever...

The motor was built at Glenwood Motors in South Africa according to the posts on AlfaBB.com.  $18k (plus duties - he was stung by customs if I recall).

It's a beautiful thing:

Loving the wood-effect engine bay.

evan re your comment doing burnouts they guy is young and to everyone else i bet you have all done burnouts in ur cars whilst younger, so dont dish out crap for things you have also done, and number 2 is that if you were there watching in person you would love it, and no 3 its only the hoon laws that have made people think it is more stupid than what it is,
yes in my younger days i did it to but not anymore, and if he does get caught its his own stupid fault

[Ray Pignataro]

sheldon the wood grain engine bay was standard issue with that motor something to do with the retro fit

[ARQ164 Shane]

So he,s an over worked 30 year painter.
yes that is the most awesome motor by Dawie .

ALL KID ARE A GIFT TO BE LOOKED AFTER.

Evo 75 is probably a good bloke let face it we do dum things .this is how we learn.it the things we can't undo that bite.

p.s I can't spell ,I know

[Neil Choi]

Ooooh, Arrhhhh, who needs porn or Viagra when you can look at the Glenwood motor.  If only I can touch it.

Oh so sexy.  Oh, baby.

I do admire it though and congratulations to the mechanical workmanship of putting it altogether, too bad on the behaviour.

Anyway, I can feel something coming on, got to go bathroom with my laptop and perv on the Glenwood motor more.

Coincidentally, this week I am meeting with the person who lead the team which invented Viagra at Pfizer.
