they look awesome, how difficult was it to make a panel to mount them inside the stock lense section? and how difficult was the wiring?

My brother in law runs a machine shop that makes parts for Boeing. My father in law runs his flow jet which cut out my amp rack. The tail light bracket they cut with a huge stamping machine. I think I still have the drawing I made that they used, PM me if you want a copy



I used a Hotronics PG-3, No Load Flasher For LED Taillights.
http://www.hotrodhotline.co...ch/05hotronicstech2/

Wiring was simple.
Because the notchback tail lights have the brake light shared with the turn signal
I had to cut the grey wire on the brake light switch and run a new wire.
The sequential turn signals have a flasher system built in so it makes them flash a little random because of two flashers, but it looks fine.

I hope you're not going to un-do that nice orange paint job. Maybe better to start a new chassis.

No, it will stay as-is. photoshop mods are free. Though I may have to do something different on the wife's car. We have a 3.4 DOHC engine, just need to find a nice fiero with a blown motor on craigslist for cheap.

Hey fourpoint,

Have you tried talking to some of the existing Fiero retailers about reproduction of these bumpers, like V8 Archie, or Pisa Fiero? They already do plenty of body kits, maybe contracting them out would be an option.

Also, I'm not sure if the people you made bumpers for backed out or not, but if they did, for either front or back, let me know... I've got funding for both, but I'm mostly in need of a rear bumper.

Finally, I have to be honest my friend, you have created one of the best notchback mods out there. Thank you for doing something for just us non-GT guys.

Got a 217 on my first run but they did not have my car tied down well, so the chart had bounces in it.

Nice numbers, what does Lance have done to his speed 3?
I have one and am split on building a Fiero or modding the speed.
I think I would get more fun with a Fiero...the only time I use the speed is when the wife is with me and she doesnt let me have any fun. Only gonna get worse when our daughter is born. Atleast with a Fiero I'd probably be alone most of the time, and just give her the Speed 3.

That Speed3 was amazing. It only had a FMIC, and put down those numbers!

Look at #7....that was the sickest dyno ever. A completely bone stock Mercedes E55 AMG.....It was completely silent. All you read were the rollers spinning at 155MPH when he hit the speed governor. Looking at his gragh he still could have made more power. Talk about seriously under-rating their car! YIKES
