Real Fiero Tech

Me and my dad took our Fieros to the track, it was dark, and we had to have our lights on, did some runs from 8:30 till 9:30, temperature was 10C, and dark, and the track seemed slippery, I got about 100' of wheel spin going into 2nd, and so did my dad lol. The elevation of the track is 2,373ft abov...

Congrats :thumbleft:

You have any plans to visit Alberta sometime?

I have an 86, but by eyeballing, it does look like having the slots outward gives more camber, plus I can see the opening on the outside of the a-arm so the ball joint is further in, but it seems and looks like there is no camber still.

Which way do you have to turn the front upper ball joints to get more camber? I have the flat side pointing out, but I am at about 0 degrees of camber if not alittle negative. I have moog problem solver ball joints installed.

I have heard about that option, never seen a brochure though, that is cool, but it seems awfully pricy to me, $23,000 in 88 for a Fiero? Maybe that is why they are not common. I wonder how many they made? Edit, I just noticed your edit. 11 would make them pretty rare to find a factory one. ALso, wou...

The ecotech over here is actually the 2nd generation ecotech, or the ecotech II in Europe.

It 99% daily driver. But you can put a DOHC head on this car, then have a 16V DOHC motor. The sunbird motor has been used quite alot in europe, it is actually an Opel motor. It is actually the same family of engines as the current Ecotech, it was the first engine to be badged an Ecotech, back in 200...

How many people have swapped in the 2.0L Turbo motor from a sunbird in a Fiero? My dad has one, and I think the only one in existance. They are suprizingly quick motors, I think he is alittle faster than my Quad 4. We took it to a 100' drag, and he beat me by .1 seconds and 2MPH. Hs best time was a ...

Hope it goes well. You should putter over to Alberta one day.

I should try a wheel allignment lol. My drivers side is toed out front and rear, and the passenger side is somethign different, and I think I have PSOITIVE camber on my front right tire lol. That and my tires are about 5 years old. I like my setup, the car is way more responsive, but I did alot of c...

I recylcle. But the old folks home across the street may look promising, have so suck up to one of the grannies.

Why would you use 4cyl soft frront springs? I have my 86 front springs, off of a base coupe, I had mega body roll, and slow responce. This year I used the stock springs on crzyones car above (that he took off) they are WS6, and it is much stiffer. I am also using a 16mm rear sway bar too.

Why didnt you???

Take it to a corner where it requires all of the car to perform.

Do you know that the Quad 4 uses Peak and hold Injectors? Wierd, my stock HO injectors are 32lb, on a l4 from GM. Stock LO Quad 4 injectors are 26lb I think.

You should drive my car at next event, I should be there, forgot to register here till it was too late.

I like the first episode this season with the police cars.

Looks good. I see you have your numbers on still too.

You may have to repaint your fenders afterwards too, the bra will dull the paint under it.

Heres my pics:

Got vids too, but not uploaded yet.

It was a fun day, but a long wait for such a short drag. I got 1st in my class, A class for the 4 cylinder cars, but I was alone in the class, posted a 3.19 at 34.4MPH. That was at par with a stock 88GT with a V6 5-speed. My dad did well with his 2.0L turbo, he did a 3.08 at 36MPH, which beat all of...
