    So if you want to see how the FIA Group 4 conversion goes, take a look at this photo album. There are others but this is more or less how all of 8 or so that were converted in this century were built.

    Here are some other threads you might like:

    Tour de Corse build of his group 4 car with MAT:

    Simon’s Group 4 car:

    Not saying that you want a Group 4 car (very hard to do, especially if you get the FIA HTP) but it gives you some good looks into the car and the modifications that need to be done to reinforce the chassis and such. Could be pretty helpful to you.

    here for the contact for wheels in USA

    from TIFOSO’s post:

    I ordered them through NTM's US distributor Matt Leavitt at Alfa 9 Supply, and I can't recommend him highly enough. He was super responsive and very helpful, and eliminated a lot of my hesitation in dealing with a smaller (especially Italian! :)) overseas company.

    I made them for my car as well. Looks nice but they do make practical sense as the California’s tend to slide down Image Unavailable, Please Login

    Yours look really nice, Steven. What seats do you have in yours, by the way? I love the blue seats.

    I have recaro’s in mine. They’re very right for the car but I’m on the fence with the red. I was thinking of trying to get the blue fabric for it.

    If you don’t mind can you share the info on the wheels? Sizing, offset, etc.

    It would be good I have here as a reference for everyone.

    I think the rear wheel looks a little small for the rear wheelwell, I think the 1 inch stagger will look very nice, and balance the design

    That Casil Motor car is spectacular. Dial the wheel fitment down and still great inspiration!

    If you have the budget - there is no substitute for displacement on a naturally aspirated engine [emoji4]
