Renault Alpine GTA V6 Turbo: 1988.

thanks, im trying to find alloys but its not an easy task!! and the only ones i really like are the azev a with deep dish. but ive just got the car and it needs a full respray so thats also to do!! cheers

Azev stopped making the rears for the GTA a couple of years ago so unless you use adaptors/spacers you are going to be out of luck or you can find a second hand set.

The only companies that I know who do correct fitment wheels for the GTA are Compomotive, Image or Team Dymanics.

Oh and whereabouts are you as I know a half decent painter in Halifax

ive got a load of sets of spacers so might get an E30 set of azevs, its a fine line between good spray job and budget to spend really, and i might change the colour as although its a rare alpine metallic red, its not my cup of tea so if im getting it sprayed i might find a better colour, so youve probably guessed its the one off ebay! excellent mechanically and interior wise but body work lets it down, full respray and a set of azevs and it will look excellent, and i got it moted for 12 months today.

I have never been a fan of spacers/adapters personally especially on a performance car. However I do think that the Azev's are the best looking wheel for the GTA so I understand you wanting them.

Come on then lets have a look at your new purchase then Start a new thread in the "Project" section

put a couple in i took today in projects section

has anybody or does anyone know who has an intake rubber pipe for sale that goes to the turbo, mine as usual is split and leaking...........??

There's a silver one for sale on pistonheads ; http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3465883.htm .
With brown leather!

looks quite a tidy car..... and it's got those rare bbs wheels, interior looks good too dunno about the blue carpet going with the leather though....

I agree it does look tidy and the right price too. It's been for sale for a few months now. Unfortunately the GTA buying public don't seem to appreciate GTA's painted in non OE colours. That Purple one up in Manchester has been for sale for years (literally) and as far as I'm aware still hasn't sold. It's a good car as well by all accounts.

BIG M's tip of the day - If you want to repaint your GTA stick to a factory supplied or the original colour, unless it's a keeper for life of course Otherwise resale value/time will be affected!

Oh and I'm not sure about the BBS wheels, I think they need to be bigger like the Le Mans which look magnificent rims

weren't they an oem bling extra back in the day? or was it the set that mr D flogged on from one of the cars that passed through dellboy? i remeber last seeing a set on a red car

Think the BBS wheels were available new, with gold or silver centres. They are shown in an accessory catalogue along with such delights as a roof rack and Alpine briefcase!
