Upgrade battery to lifepo45.) Transmission fluid change, oil change, etc.6.) probably some more stuff I'm forgettingUpgrades:1.) Mechanical LSD2.) Re-tune (engine remap to ~300hp, stability control to account for LSD, add race mode, remove start/stop, etc.)3.) New winter tires probably
Did you buy one off a japanese auction or is that just a picture of any giulia?
Why the fuck are they so cheap in muttland?A used one like that costs 20k in yurop
>>28675163I bought it off a japanese auction. Cheapest one I think has ever sold.
Your car did not come with an LSD? Mine does.
>>28675094fat repair bills even if you diy
>>28675295>$50 for a rear diff>$20 for a set of 4 brake pads>$20 per driveshaft>$20 per taillight>$50 for upgraded OEM leather seats>$30 for shocksI think I'll be alright
>>28675407holy shit why is all that so cheap?is that real or some scuffed after market scam parts? can I order from yurop too?
>>28675524try buyee to order and have it auto-forwarded to europe. Giulias depreciate like crazy here for whatever reason and they seem to be scrapping & parting them out a lot.
>oh sweet!
>>28675579>Giulias depreciate like crazy here for whatever reasonso its an unreliable piece of shit>scrapping & parting them out a lot.so you're not only buying an unreliable piece of shit, but also used parts
>>28675649you're just salty. post car, busrider.
>>28675094>$3kyou lie like a cambodian whore
>>28675677stay mad anon that your life is full of poor decisions
>Infiniti driver talking about others' poor life decisions
>>28675407lmao you really think you found some cheat code, don't you?you can't even ship gas pressurized shocks overseas and you're ignoring shipping costsyour ~25kg diff will run you at least $500 to shipyour ~1m3 seats will run you around $1000your car itself is at least $2k to roro, and you have taxes, import fees, and insurance, so your $3k alfa was never actually only $3kand this is assuming your sight-unseen, untested parts and vehicle arrive in one piece over the 3 month journey across the pacific
>>28675689>lecturing others about poor decisions>gets a nissan
>>28675166I see 2018s from $10k to 20k. Quadrifoglios 30-60k.
>>28676874You can sometimes get them for under $10k in the US. I saw a couple on copart go for around $6k (non-accident cars, just being auctioned for whatever reason, probably maintenance related). QVs are consistently $35k+ in Japan (30k-40k miles) and don't seem to be depreciating much anymore, Veloce's are kind of pricey here, but the base models for whatever reason have depreciated like rocks. The same car that was $15k a year ago is now like $8-9k. I would save up and get a manual transmission QV from Europe honestly. Those are going to be worth a fortune some day unless someone figures out a cheap & easy MT swap option, and it's such a fun car to drive anyway.
>>28675407>buy teemu diff>get raped on shipping>diff blows up during your 3rd dyno pullGG no r3
