brother wrecked my frt end..........REBIRTH BEGINS NOW
 
Im still pissed about it........My brothers fiero broke down cause the water pump went out so he asks to borrow my car ,Im like ok no biggie but be careful with her. Well everything was going good then he is coming home and he hits a deer ,but not no ordinary deer a ------- DEAD ONE. He tells me this likes its nothing and cracks a smile and starts laughing. Im like you hit a ------- dead deer in my car :o WTF. Then i asked him how in the ---- do you hit a dead ------- deer ,he said it was in the middle of the road and couldn't dodge it. I was like its ------- DEAD where the hell is it going to go ,then i said you could of went around it. He said he couldn't i was like hell you can't i got a $1000 in the suspension ,you can ------ go offroad and not feel it ( was being sarcastic ).

Well for the damage my lower frt scoop is gone , my frt piece has a small tear that i can fix :) , and my right fender is torn in half. It pisses me off cause all he said was im sorry ,no offer to help ......nothing. He can't pay for it cause he doesn't have a great job ,not like i would of asked him. If his car breaks down again hes fucked ,im not helping him anymore and my car is in pieces right now ( in the garage ) since i have to fix his ---- up. He fucked up because his punishment is he will never touch my car again ,no on ever will, he hurt my baby :-[.

I am making her even more meaner and darker then she was before ,she will look totally different when i get done with her. Everything that i don't need is gone carpet ,seats ( replaced with alum. race seats ) crappy plastic covers all that weak ----. She will be dressed in diamond tread plate all along the bottom and im going to be making a new scoop out of tread plate as well. Everything is going to be reinforced and she is going to look scary and mean as ---- and i mean ------ mean and scary. I am very pissed and all that energy is going into scarying the ---- out of everybody through my car. Her REBIRTH will be something to wreckon with :-X and i will try to keep you guys updated on her.

Sorry to hear that man, but at least it's not totaled. I'd take the front from his fiero and toss it on mine, but that's just me. I take it you will be replacing the pump for him? I don't think I've seen your car (or if I did I don't remember, this CA smog is deadly), got some pics? Some after pics would be nice too. Fiero's are pretty cool, my dad had one, but that was before I was born. :P

Re:brother wrecked my frt end..........REBIRTH BEGINS NOW
 
everything is going good so far ,i need to find a fender now, a nice one is fairly hard to find down here. As for the engine i will have to buy one with the ecu. But since the 3.8 will be out it will be easier to work on ;).And when i wanna rebuild my 2.8 i will just drop in the 3.8 ready to go ;)

you gonna upgrade the brakes before you put that 3.8 in there? i dunno how the brakes on your car are, but on my 86SE, they're total ----. took it around road america a few times and by the second lap the brakes were totally gone.

i know the walt zettner swap is pretty popular, but it's also pretty expensive.. i've been lookin at alternatives. found that 90-95 W body cars came with 2 piston calipers, and they'll fit the latest gen ford tore-ass rotors (which are 11.x inch, and only $23.99) if the rotors are re-drilled for the 5x100 fiero bolt pattern and caliper adapter brackets are fabbed. upgrade the MC and you should be able to outbrake most porsches..

i think i priced it all out once and it came in under $500 for the swap on all 4 wheels. only bitch is that you lose the parking brake..

I had all my brakes upgraded a while back to slight bigger ones that are cross drilled and vented. Im building my car around the turbo not the motor around the car.

Re:brother wrecked my frt end..........REBIRTH BEGINS NOW
 
Well i decided to ripe out my 1 in drop springs and install some 2 inch drop springs ;D. I was looking at the scoop and i am going to shave it down and reinforce the mounting with metal plates and diamond tread. Going to do a rhino coating on the inside but leave my clothed seats and make some diamond tread foot controls ,dead pedal and the bottom wear section under my foot.
