thanks bubbajoexxx

anything new bubbajoexxx???

wow. i am utterly speachless, major kudos to you bubbajoexxx. i just finished looking at this from page 1 and i am majorly impressed at how well this has come from first design drawings. i could not imagine the amount of time, effort, and money you have into this but my hats off to you, i cant wait to see this thing when it is finished.

I hope it's running for the 25th show.

hey you got a drawing or dimensions for your adapter plate? I am gonna run an audi tranny, but the Northstar side would really help.

Nothing new?

How much does one cost?

About as much as a high dollar custom gear box. Not really, but they aren't cheap in most cases.

Wow, hope you recover quick and well bubbajoe, then keep up the good work on the Fiero.

quote Originally posted by madcurl: How much does one cost?

they range from 300 to 3000 depending on what one you want the 930 transaxle is around 1500 for a good one but the 915 will go for alot less and will work just as good or use the boxer transaxle they have gone for a reasonable price on ebay for the 6 speed

Awesome project!

And I've actually had some idiot riceboy highschool punk insult my GT saying it was "a Del Sol with an ugly tacky fake-ass Ferrari body kit. You know those Del Sols are just (bleep) CRX's??"

Bubba Joe, have you driven the car yet???

How low are the 6-speed ratios? Would this work with Ryans/Helds/Lee longitutional cradle using a LS2?

I hate to hear that, hope things get better for you and sorry you had to move on.
If this was in Florida I would be dragging it home today.
Good luck to you, don't be a stranger.

I'm sorry to hear that as well. Your builds have been nothing short of amazing. Hopefully you have a padawan that you have been training to take over for you?

Madcurl, please buy this car and finish it!

Sooo does it run?

quote Originally posted by doublec4: Sooo does it run?

Sorry to hear this B, I wished you were close to Cali. I would beg, borrow and ..... to come up with that kind dough. That build is amazing!! Hope things work out for you. In the mean time someone is gonna be a LUCKY DOG to get it.

Man always on the other side of the globe from me.

Sorry to hear about your injuries and I hope you get better. I hope the build finds a good owner.

I hope so to there is alot of money in this car 1200 just for the vette wheels
I gues I must have 10,000 in it

I would come take a look but unfortunately I'm stuck in school out of town right now with no car. As far as buying it... it would be one hell of a long shot due to living at home with my parents who would absolutely murder me if I brought home another car (unfinished at that).

I'm also doubting you would remove any parts of the car to sell individually?

Would you happen to have any other upgrades or aftermarket fiero stuff laying around?

every part i had went into the car

where are you in school

I'm in school in Oshawa. Its not that far however I dont have a car here. I'm done exams in about a week and a half. If the car hasn't sold by then I'll be back home with my fiero again. I could take a drive up even to see the car just out of pure curiosity.
