The fastbacks get most of the build threads and I'm trying to think of some things I want to do to my car. Bone stock 86 2.5 auto. I wanna see what you guys have done.

Well mine is not too wild on the outside. Just a clean late model coup body. My interpretation of the perfect fiero.

Is this wild enough for ya?









This project car started out as an '87 SE (with 2.5 4-cyl and auto tranny) that had crash damage, and a bit of jerry-rigging from the previous owner. It had one foot in the boneyard. But I was able to whip it back into shape. I later decided to turn it into a project car. As a result, it ended up with a sport suspension, a 3.4 V6, and a Getrag 5-speed transmission. Oh, and I made some modifications to the bodywork.

One of these days, I might actually paint it. I need to finish the body work first, though. And that's the problem. Because just when I think it's done, I think of something else to do.

EXTRA FINE

Maybe my Fiero can look up to your Fiero as inspiration.

Cordially,

Kevin

p.s. Any photos of the inside?

I wouldnt say its wild, but Im pretty proud of all my hard work. Recently finished, pics are from daytona last weekend. Its got a built 3800sc, getrag 5 speed, I did the T-top conversion myself as well as everything else on the car and the paint is less than a month old.





-Joe

no problem Kevin! Im honored. I will post inside pics later. Maybe sometime when Im in the area we can get together and do some cruising. I have family in Sac.

Joe, I love your car! I have been watching the build and think she is darn near perfect. Course I think mine is too so there are obviously many ways to be perfect. How are you liking that 3800SC?

My one of a kind creation I built for my wife.....

Have you read through the build thread (especially the part about the spoiler)?!?
It pretty much sums up 'win'

For those that haven't: //www.fiero.nl/forum/F.../HTML/000100-14.html

and my vote for a Wild Notchie goes to one of Archie's creations:

I've always been a fan of Tracy Powell's:

84 IMSA


84 base


88 turbo 3400SFI formula

It gets. Its at my mechanic's right now getting a T fitting oil leak fixed because i have no way of getting under the car but once thats fixed its going to get the tune rebuilt so i can kick some a$$ and get better then 10 MPG highway. premium is a b*tch on the wallet at those kinds of MPG

ya i bet glad i dont need to buy premium fuel. and only 10mpg on the highway??! wow that thing is kinda hard on fuel you should start a full build on it though if you start doing some more stuff, she is a nice car.

I have a few plans for it. I kinda wana put the interior back together.

If your really running that rich I would imagine premium is not necissary! It will become more needed as the engine is tuned better and running leaner.

good plan . i want to do that to mine also

1 for weight reduction and 2 i think he said it wont fit with the seat. and its not like i can put the stock Fiero seats back in it because unless your braced in this 88 is one stern mistress to drive.

Lol your not getting what i mean by the noise though after a day of driving it you litterley go to sleep hearing Revving and blow off valve in your head.

oh no i completely bet it would be. it would be ridiculously loud. my 86 duke is loud enough and its all stock pretty much (well except the nasty exhaust someone put on it) but ya i can only imagine how your turbo would be

How well of a job does your dynomat dampen down the engine by noise? I need it in my formula real bad.

quote Originally posted by bmwguru: My one of a kind creation I built for my wife.....

at first i saw the paint and i was like "WOAH!!! SICK!" then i saw the motor and thought "wait wth? something aint right." but i love the paint.

My contribution-not real wild but lots of changes!

quote Originally posted by pontiackid86: How well of a job does your dynomat dampen down the engine by noise? I need it in my formula real bad.

I'm sure it helps but my headers are still kind of loud, but in a good way and the supercharger whines like crazy.

quote Originally posted by bjc 350: My contribution-not real wild but lots of changes!

WOW tell us more about that front end!! And pics of the rear as well!!
I like it!

not to many upgrades but a V8.

Mine isnt real flashy on the outside.. But its what you cant see that matters.

Revin, there was an earlier thread on my car in General Chat a few months ago. I'm not smart enough to post the link, but it will search under " Self indulgent pictures". Thanks for asking to see more.

I will look it up! I love it!
