I can't believe I'm actually going to put this up for sale. I've had this 88 Fiero for the last 9-10 years, and it has undergone many mods. I bought it 100% stock with 83K on it, but unfortunately haven't driven it more than a few hundred miles these last couple years.

It currently has a ~30k mile 3400sfi engine from a 2001 GrandAm GT that has been turbocharged and intercooled via Turbonetics 60-trim T3-T04E. Has a 4spd manual trans from a 70k mile 85GT and Spec Stg2 clutch in it. Decent tune with a Haltech stand-alone, and the included laptop. Running 6psi, can dyno tune for 10psi.

Body is in decent shape, but has some paint cracks around the custom vents and things that were molded in. Flush mount headlights, IMSA rear spoiler and custom hood/trunk vents. Custom sideskirts and trimmed rear bumper. Mostly gutted interior with fiberglass race seats, red accent panels, and Grant Race Wheel. Autometer Boost, A/F (driven by Innovate WB), and Buick Grand National Knock Gauges.

-West Coast Fiero 400lb F-R Coilover Kit
-Koni Red adjustables F-R
-Full Poly Bushings
-FieroAddiction 12" Corvette Brake Kit F-R
-MBMotorsports Weapon 17-18" staggered wheels
-Nitto 555 Tires. Rears only 40% left, fronts like new.
-Custom Bracing in rear engine bay, x-frame, etc
-Custom SS Exhaust with single chamber muffler, dual outlet
-Wrinkle Red Intercooler pipes, valve covers, and intake manifold
-Porsche 50mm External Wastegate
-Rodney Dickman 1" lowering balljoints


I'm sure there is more that I'm forgetting, as it's been a project for the last 4-5 years (always had another project I felt was more important, GSX, GVR4 etc). It is a blast to drive, stiff, point and shoot or slide any corners you want. It was my first car, and would love to keep it, but with having a house now, priorities change. I'm loosing a ton of money on this, but I think the price is VERY fair, and I want to sell quickly before I want to keep it. If you have any questions, feel free to email, jwarren269@yahoo.com or leave a reply here.

Asking $4000. Located in 18944, PA.

Read my signature. It speaks volumes about the buyer. And volumes of non-fiction to boot.

Yea, sorry I didn't update the thread. Car has been gone for a while now. I think the TOB went bad.

I've been seeing this car in the Daytona beach area. Obviously someone around here now owns it

I considered it's purchase but the distance was far.

I can't find any pics online of it. All been scrubbed. Photobucket is gone and google image turns up nothing.

Maybe someone has one saved they could upload
