do you just sit at home and look for random parts. even though I had looked into it want to just do some handling upgrades then do a pulley change and such.

it is not a straight line car like his talon that no one wanted to run. it will deff out handle in the corners over other cars and he is fully building the feiro with a 383 stroker so craig is not out of the straight line power game yet. built 383 heads,cam for under 1k and make over 400whp n/a in a car that is 1/2 the weight of the talon

Kracka 05-26-2008 11:31 PM

Re: now that i'm getting rid of the dsm got me a new car.
 
That will be a fast car. What is the ET on completion?

TkrPerformance 05-26-2008 11:40 PM

Re: now that i'm getting rid of the dsm got me a new car.
 
as soon as the talon is gone the parts will be order engine will go out for work. and the v8 mounting kit will be ordered. hopfully really soon

Re: now that i'm getting rid of the dsm got me a new car.
 
who said no one wanted to run craig?
383 fiero? nice.

thats sweet one car to handle like its on rails and another car to blur your vision before it hits 88mph.

craig 05-27-2008 09:27 AM

Re: now that i'm getting rid of the dsm got me a new car.
 
well kept putting it out there for people to run it and it never happened(you werent around) but if I dont get any solid bites on the car I'm going to start to strip it down to part it out.

Kracka 05-27-2008 09:42 AM

Re: now that i'm getting rid of the dsm got me a new car.
 
Craig, I don't think anyone around who actually drives their car on a regular basis could compete with ya :)

Nice pickup! I cant see you in that though.. lol

This was actually one of the cars on my to buy list as well, for a next car. Just wish they had more pep in them, as well as a nicer interior.

I would run your talon, just need 30min at Swiftys house to barrow "his" shep tranny, lol. When the Fiero is done you can run the guy that has the 500ci caddy engine in his Fiero and used to be down town all the time. I raced him with my 423fwhp (dynojet pump gas) in the Galant back in the day, it was kind of a close race.

Re: now that i'm getting rid of the dsm got me a new car.
 
yeah I need all of 1k to make it run so either i sell the talon or part it out and buy the parts as I go.

Curb weight on a regular IX GSR is 3,274 lbs; add ~40 lbs. for the SSL package, subtract ~18 lbs. for the SE edition. The RS is about 45 lbs. lighter than the GSR and the MR is about 11 lbs. heavier. VIII's are about 10 lbs. lighter than comparable IX's.

Yep, the MRs are the heaviest of the bunch and yet the have aluminium roofs, it's mind bottling.

It must be the 6-speed transmission because the wheels alone shave off another 12 lbs. (16 on the VIII's), and I'm pretty sure the Blisteins weigh in lighter than the KYB shocks.
