These cars deserve some love ;) If I may share some observations.. be careful with the copper grease, copper and aluminum don't like each other. Ceramic paste for brakes is better choice to prevent bolts seizing, but never put it on threads. Appreciate you are using a torque wrench, but using it for loosening bolts will damage it or it will be less accurate.
H&R springs are too low on brera on the front axle. The rear is a perfect height, but the front is slammed, which doesn't look good as there is big gap difference between the front and the rear. Eibach springs with bilstein shocks look and drive much better. The front is about 2cm heigher, just enough you get a flushed stance on front and rear arches.
Thanks man! Would have to do more runs with it but so far it felt not too hard. Definitely harder than my 159 Ti, but it suits the Brera in my opinion. It gets more of a sporty ride with these B8 shocks. 🍀👌
Thanks so much! 🙏🍀 yes could be donr the other way around also, but I prefer this as the clamp of the shock has a slotted hole which can be moved a bit into position easier
Thank you I appreciate 🙏🍀 I have Pirelli P Zero Nero GT on the Brera, but on my 159 I have Pirelli Synergy tires and they are very nice. Comfort and sportiness and very silent.
Another great video thanks !. Ive been thinking to re-do my shocks as well. How many kilometres had you done on your old shocks before replacing ? Do you know what the normal wear cycle would be expected considering its a pretty heavy car ? I bought my Brera with 60k on the clock and it's a pretty bumpy ride on Sydneys Terrible roads. Cheers.
Thank you man! I appreciate that 🙏🍀🇮🇹 My Brera has now 157.000 km on the odometer and the shocks were 17 years old. Not sure what the cycle would be exactly but my guess on the Brera would be around +/-15 years/150.000 km. Greetings from the Netherlands 🍀
Super chilled out videos, just discovered your channel, brilliant, many thanks.
Thank you very much!! I appreciate that 🙏🍀
Looks great as usual. Can't wait for the handling review!
Thank you mate! 🙏🍀

Great video as always! If I may ask where did you get everything else besides the shocks and springs (buffers, dust covers, etc.)
@@КристиянКостов-я4й thanks man!! I got most of the parts from shop alfisti
great reference video, really appreciated,
🙏 Thanks a lot!! 🍀
Nice work man! I hope its not too hard - had the B8 in the GT, it was nor more comfort.

Thank you for the informative instruction video. Any reason why you tighten the fork to lower arm first before the clamp of the shock (front)?

which wrenches did you use ? you are working carrifully tanks
@@ahmetyldrm1112 at what point in the video you mean?
@@939driver every time you are good jop. and i asked you which tolls did you use
@@ahmetyldrm1112 thanks bro! I use mostly Bahco, BGS, MannesMann tools
Very good explanation .... what tires do you recomend for the Brera ?
