My... whatever it is...

86 Pontiac Fiero SE MR layout 2.5 inline 4 TBI OHV Auto (yuck, that is SLOW)

Before the rattlecan job:


After:


This thing is insane! It will do 0-60 in about 20 seconds! It has an amazing top speed of somewhere around 80-90mph!

Meh, its a 300$ beater. But actually it does handle pretty decently. It has the GT rims with slightly wider than stock (195 front, 205 rear), street performance tires and it hangs on in the turns. But I'm afraid to push it because I think many things are ready to start falling off heh heh.

Its a start, and done right...they're scary cars. We had the kit to drop the 350 in it, did, and it was a...fun ride to say the least ;).

nice Fiero! looks better with the new paint. those cars have a lot of potential, drop a small block in it and it will be pretty scary!

im actually starting to look at that new one they have from the cobalt SS, apparently its fairly easy to put in and you can use the 6-speed that comes with it, and I hear you can order stage 1 and 2 kits for supercharging up to around 300hp... not too bad for a 4banger, so that may be another option.

definitely gonna get on the suspension, I wanna drop it a little but... the front bumper already scrapes so I'll prolly try to find some minimal drop and relatively stiffer springs (the stock setus isnt bad, but its rusting up alright, i'll probably need new arms an all within 3 years if i still have it)

Nice looking ride but ugh, the 2.5 Tech 4. Nasty, you need to put a GTP Supercharged 3800 in there. Then you would have something. ;)
