In the interest of keeping this thread alive LOL a 300zx has all the personality of a dead fish, a twin turbo 300zx has all the personality of a fast dead fish. The Fiero is full of character and mystery. Looking into my eightball I mean eye wait no crystal ball ya dats it looking into my crystal ball - in 50 years which one of these cars will be a collectors car - oh wait all the nissans rusted away 20 years ago as far as 390 or 300 or whatever horsepower it is all within a fieros grasp in whatever flavor you want to make it - from Northstar to ecotec to chevy 350. The greatest thing about fieros is they are open to modify anyway you want. What can you do with a 300zx twin turbo for a thousand dollars? Not much. With a fiero the sky is the limit if you are handy with doing mechanical work. Well actually not the sky but you know what I mean. Maybe we should start a most bang for the buck topic.
In the interest in killing this thread once and for all for the money you can put into a Fiero in an engine swap, you start out with the same performance of a twin turbo 300. People will notice a 300zx and it has more exotic appeal as it is a rarer car. Don't delude yourself. The Fiero is an interesting chapter for Pontiac, and has appeal as a unique automobile, but it isn't and never was all that. Enjoy it for what it is.

This coming from someone who brags about their bone stock duke? Yeah, I guess if a K&N and some Slick50 is your idea of performance mods then I guess $1000 is "skys the limit". The L67 swap in my car cost in excess of $5000 in 1997. And can get snuffed by our PT Cruiser GT.

Well what a long read, very interesting. I believe this when we look back and ponder on the moral of the story. But first I'm a Canadian, and not so proud of our little buddy from BC. So the moral of the story, he is just another number, parents separated and he has been torn apart and destressed from this act. He has no role model in his life to set a good example, he views his mother poorly, and this is due to his father's treatment of her and he does the same as he is starving for attention from his dad. His father doesn't spend any quality time with this boy there for he must act out in a poor manner because its all he knows how to do. I quess the moral is his grass is no greener when you look at the whole lot. I actually feel sorry for you bud, I mean horrible childhood, when money and iteams are your life, I only wish you could feel what a family is like, the love, the help, its always there, nothing more important in life than a family. To clarify my intentsions, I'm not trying to attack anyone, but to really take a look at where and who is attcking Fiero owners. All this sillyness from a boy who doesn't know anything more than highschool games. I for one pitty him. Sorry
