These brackets allow the use of 88-95 C4 12" rotors and 88 Fiero calipers on your 84-87 fiero. You will need 16" wheels at the min but I have heard of people getting the stock 15" wheel over them on 88's. People have been doing this swap on 88's for years, it is very well balanced, lightweight and affordable. Using the 88 Fiero caliper allows you to have an e-brake, nothing needs to be done to the cables or the calipers. The fronts are a bolt on and will require a hub made to install the new rotor onto. I have these available here-https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum4/HTML/071647.html When you install the rear calipers you will need to swap sides, Driverside on the pass side and pass side on the driverside. This will put the bleeder facing down requiring you to bleed the calipers off the car, I have done it several times and it isn't hard to do. Also the Threaded holes that hold the bracket to the knuckle will need to be drilled out and tapped with a M12x1.75 tap, I will include the required drill bit and Tap with each set of brackets.

All parts are available from Rockauto-

Front parts-

Power Stop drilled and slotted rotors, AR8240XPR $44.79ea
ACDelco 1988 Fiero left front caliper, 18FR722 $39.79 ea. That includes the $8.00 core
ACDelco 1988 Fiero Right front caliper, 18FR721 $39.79 ea. That includes the $8.00 core

REAR parts-

Power Stop Drilled and slotted rotors, AR8241XPR $41.79 ea
Centric1988 Fiero Left Rear caliper, w/ all brackets and hardware- 14162533 $126.79ea That includes the $70 core
Centric1988 Fiero Right Rear caliper, w/ all brackets and hardware- 14162534 $126.79ea That includes the $70 core

Front brackets-

$95 Shipped will get you 2 front brackets, milled from 7075 Aluminum and powder coated black, 2-6061 Aluminum rotor centering rings and the required bolts to mount the brackets to the knuckle.

Rear brackets-

$140 shipped will get you 2 rear brackets, milled from 7075 Aluminum and powder coated black, 2-6061 aluminum rotor centering rings, the required M12x1.75 mounting bolts and the Drill and M12x1.75mm tap. You can knock $10 off that price if you don't need the drill and tap.

$210shipped if you buy both a front and rear set together.

My brackets came in yesterday. They look great, and I am looking forward to the install. Next weekend is my weekend off, so I will work on them then.

Thanks again!

Lord. Yes you have to drill the fiero pattern into the rotors. A drill press, plus old rear hub with studs removed will do the job.
