Fixed. I actually retyped that a couple time because I kept putting an E after the A for some reason. I think i try to type too fast sometimes.

[RobertISaar]

i know all about that.

 

but on to the idea of anything a fiero can do, a W can do:

 

yes and no: the fiero has a smaller engine bay, making it easier to get stuff into a W, but fieros are also light and rear wheel drive(through a transaxle, but still). that allows them to run much more power before blowing shit up....or down, through the bellhousing, oir any other direction that certain tranny parts like to go.

[Genopsyde]

not if you use the right parts. there are a lot of trans options out there besides the obvious 282-284 and F40. The 4t65e-hd can handly all kinds of torque and pretty much bolts right in.

 

all a fiero is, is a FWD cradle and trans mounted in the rear. there is no more or less weight on the rear suspension of a fiero than there is the front suspension of a FWD car.
