Holy crap! That is the baddest Fiero Underside I have ever seen. I don't think I would ever do that, it would drive me crazy with all of the dirt and rock roads I drive on. Keep up the good work man! Can't wait to see this thing done.

Thanks. I am taking a break on it for a few weeks so I can finish my master bedroom. I am in the process of gutting my house and redoing everything. I will prob try and get the engine compartment painted over the next few weeks (need a break from this house )

If it's a stock rack, won't it not work? As in when you turn the wheel to the left, the car will steer right? How do you plan on correcting this?

We here at "dont know what the **** we are doing motorsports" pause for a brief moment of silence (while I figure how the **** I am going to do this reverse steering thing)

Sometimes I have these brain farts real bad

A simple 1:1 gearbox mounted to the column shaft that will reverse the rotation, or mount a Toyota caviler rack in there. They have real close to fiero dimensions....... I hate when I do this **** . But all in all it will be corrected very easly. I even hooked the shaft up and could swear the thing turned the proper way.

That should be sufficient, Yellow. I just wanted to make sure you didn't put the entire car back together to find out you had to turn the wheel opposite of where you really wanted to go. Let me know what you find out, because I'm interested in doing the same thing eventually. Got any more pics of how you mounted the entire column on the right side?

psssh, that wouldn't be a very big problem, just pretend like you're driving a boat!

My homecoming next month is out, ran into some schedule complications. I plan to get home sometime this summer however.

Will catch you then.
