Keeping this out of the archives.
For those who have finished this project, what would have done differently for the next time?
HAAA I own page five. Man this is a GREAT thread.
Any one have to re-do the adaptors to fit? Mine ar all off a bit.

Just wondering if anyone has noted any effect from the change in offset, or did you all get new rims as well?
This swap thread describes the process of upgrading 84-87 fieros (regardless of what brakes you end up using) well enough to deserve to stay on top.

I have a complete set-up like this (the WCF set that fits all years) that might be coming up for sale or trade after I sell my 88 Formula and get an 87GT. I could possibly do some trading for the 11 and 1/4 conversions because I'll need (2) of them (1 for my 85 as well whatever else i get)  .

PERKER.
Unless you had larger rims to begin with (17" I beleive), you will have to get larger ones.
The spare tire presents a new challange also. I here that you can mount the spare on backwards to get you home.
Plus this is aslso a BUMP to keep this alive!

I was thinking of using the 97-04 corvette calipers and making my own brackets. Why not go with the newest stuff out there??? They are all over ebay!! Just need to get the abutment brackets with them.

Just an anti-archive bump.
Any one making these out of steel?
