edit to fix quote tagsI learn something new here everyday. I have got to see a pic of the White GT. Can you give us some details on the car? I know I'm a broken record on this, but keep that one stock since the red one is your toy.  [This message has been edited by WingNut - MD (edited 10-01-2004).]

Dave, you going to be at tech day? If so, can you give me a ride, or is the tranny situation not fixed yet? I've yet to actually get a ride in it... or any non 2.8 v6 for that matter. Surely it would make my day/weekend.  Matt

Skitime I just wanted to say that your car is mind blowing and the time and attention to detail you have put into your car is great.
Ive been trying to figure out what engine swap to do and was leaning towards the 3.4 cause like you i want my car to look "stock"
but reading this thread and looking at your pics have made up my mind for sure. If someone didnt know better they would think that
your car came from the factory with that motor in it. Like i said its a great job!!

I apologize if either of these questions have been answered, but I've been reading this post from start to page 5 for the past few hours and have been absolutely awestruck by your Fiero. I can honestly say yours is now my favorite because of your eye for perfection and skill to carry it out. I would love to one day see this beauty in person.
Thanks in advance. |

My car is not lowered however most people that look at my car think it is. Probably because the front spoiler makes it appear lower. It does set slightly lower than our other stock 88 GT. Driveways certainly do cause a hazard. I did scrap the side metal I added to protect the lights and block the view of the lights but so far the lights are fine. Thanks for the compliments. I too hope we meet someday. [This message has been edited by skitime (edited 10-01-2004).]

Yes, I am planning to go to the tech day. I am modifiying some things on my engine while it was out so it is not on the road yet. Currently I am getting a ride with IronDuke 88 in his Fiero and Vonnie is driving her GT up when she gets off work so I am sorry but I can't give you a ride in my car this time.

Thanks very much. You know sometimes I actually have to argue with non-FIero people at cruise-ins that my engine is not stock. Or they will say they did not know it ever came with a supercharger in a Fiero.

WingNut that has been my attitude as well but somedays I look at it and think it could be an awesome sleeper with a V8 in it. Details on the car? It has been a daily driver until last summer. 98,000 miles. Vonnies car has won lots of trophies and probably the best one was First Place in a large "88GT only" class at Carlisle. It has factory 88 leather seats that I added seat heaters into them. The car is very clean but the white paint is getting tired.

i sent you a pm. unbelivable work man, it really looks awsome. i own a gtp and i do alot of work on 3800 engines for freinds. i have never seen anyone do the fuel rails like you did. if you have some more pics and its not to much trouble could you email them to me? im planning a l67 (3800 supercharged) swap into a 3rd gen camaro and i want to make it real mean but very showy under the hood. plus i dont feel like shelling out gobs of cash for the billit rails. ------------------
Comparing imports to domestics is like comparing man to women. You know which one has the balls and which one doesn't -D My tires hold ground like the French army -D
