  1. Hawaii Registration

    Anyone on the board here a Hawaii member?? I've been trying to do some reading and understand that Hawaii has recently become a LITTLE more kit tolerant... The biggest question I have is this - I'm going to rebody a Fiero - do they keep it registered as a Fiero, or do they assign a new VIN...
  2. Chassis Seabring

    There's a lifted mud-bogging Cheetah 4x4 on ebay right now - its KILLING me..... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/?cmd=ViewItem&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649&item=160716501771&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT
  3. Sterling #022 -- Jonathan K.

    I'm borrowing these photos - they're not mine - but i DID speak to the then current owner when this car was for sale, and he DID send me these pictures, so i don't THINK he would object. The car was subsequently sold to a buyer out of Arizona - I don't believe that individual is on this board...
  4. Sterling #022 -- Jonathan K.

    And reference the chassis pictures of Rick's car (Norm Rose's Sterling) Envision the Fiero above as a belly pan, and box it in like the tube frame from Dave And don't forget that this "pan" has the full tunnel, just like the VW, which does give it SOME structural rigidity (granted, not enough to...
  5. And what about that Toyota MR2???

    Okay - I'm not aware of anyone that has made one work, but I wanted to at least see that we had a thread people could pontificate in...
  6. Fiero/Getrag

    Ok - it just didn't seem fair to have this whole section of the forum devoted to tranaxles and not at least have ONE thread that was dedicated to the Fiero transaxle. So I will work to rectify this situation, just in case anyone (ELSE that is, because I'm still working this angle!!!) is...
  7. What happens when the front is MUCH narrower than the rear?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oYKZ8PT_wQ This is way over the top (I'm more a fan of subtle) - but my question is this... What happens to driveability when the rear is so grossly wider than the front? I'm sure its a rocket in a straight line, but what happens in the slaloms?? Thanks!!
  8. Sterling #022 -- Jonathan K.

    Work progresses! So - I have finally got the Fiero in the bay, and have started pulling the old 2.8 l V6 and swap it out for the good one. Hope to finish that task this weekend, so that i can get official CA paperwork on this car. (Have to have a current smog to get the title - what a pain in...
  9. Electric Sterling???

    Has anyone done an electric Sterling? Sort of along the lines of the Tesla?? I got thinking about it the other day when someone sent me a Youtube link for a guy running an electric drivetrain in a Toyota YouTube - Electric Drag racing: White Zombie The torque in these things is unreal -...
  10. Heads-up Displays

    Any thoughts here guys? I know that they are available from late 90's Pontiac Bonnevilles, and newer Corvettes and some BMW's... Anybody seen one that is just stellar? The Pontiac looks pretty basic with a speedometer function in numerals, and I believe it will also display the current...
  11. Sterling #022 -- Jonathan K.

    And here's the tank Tank looks great from the outside! But not so good on the inside. Aside from all that old smelly gas (can you still call it that?) there's rust bloom all over the inside of the side of the tank And here's just SOME of the sediment that settled after I drained most...
  12. Sterling #022 -- Jonathan K.

    Sunday August 1, 2010 OK!! Finally got down to some work today. (Will post pictures tomorrow!) Here's the beast [/ATTACH][/ATTACH][/ATTACH] (Seems a little bit a crime to tear this car apart, doesn't it???)*yipes* 1988 Fiero doesn't start, but then, it's been sitting for 5 years, so...
  13. Checking in to say hello

    #022 Thanks TheStevie - that seems to work well!!!
  14. Checking in to say hello

    Hello all, Looking forward to lurking for some pointers, and maybe get a chance to share a few of my own along the way... I actually have US Sterling #001 from Norm Rose, but that car is going to need a complete rebuild - and how can you do number 1 any other way than original? The hard...
