RBS is going to have the suspension tweaked first on a BUDGET 
Clynt torching the old rubber bushings until they smoke, burn and slip off with Patrick pulling on chain. We do it the biker way using a chain 
Last year Blair gave me the front A-arms and spindles , so I can have them all ready to go for the install. A-arms and spindles came from Brian's ride (you know they will be fast  )

Blair showed me where he takes his parts for sand blasting at U-Blast in Langley http://www.langleyublast.com/Contact.aspx - HERE 
That feels so good 
This is what the parts look like when stripped to bare metal.

That's why Johnny hired Clynt & Patty's Budget Bushing Burning Business as we work cheap (for coffee and donuts). I'm glad Johnny didn't post the picture of me on my ass when the first bushing popped out. I was pulling pretty hard as I didn't realize it would let go completely all of a sudden! We should probably also mention that those images of Clynt and myself are a few months old. Yes, it's been a cool wet summer, but we're not still dressing quite that warmly this July.

Johnny, when I dropped by yesterday with the ball joint popping tool, you were wondering where the rear camber adjustment bolts went. As this image shows, they go in the bottom hole.
I know your bolts are a bit different (I believe they're the same as what Colby got), but these are what mine look like. Yours have the eccentric on the actual shaft of the bolt, whereas these have an eccentric washer that rides against the protrusions on the strut (as in the picture above).

Patrick, these are the bolts you saw yesterday and I had them about 5 years now, I don't know how they work, maybe the wrong bolts? 
So I put on the old ones for now, where can I get those camber bolts you and Colby have ?

I remember Clarence from the Pontiac Show! Wonder how much of a difference that bump steer kit will make? You'll have to test it out at autocross, eh Johnny Boy? ------------- Never shift into reverse without a back-up plan. |
Posted By: Colby
Date Posted: 23 July 2011 at 9:14pm
Those are the bolts I have and they make adjusting the camber soo much easier. Just spin them until the black part is as lined up to the rest of the bolt as it can be and slide them in. You turn the head of the bolt to adjust the camber. I think the style of bolt that Patrick has actually lets you get a larger range of camber, but the bolts you have already should work fine. ------------- 88 Formula 5 speed |

I have something similar to what Patrick posted. However instead of a washer on the end, it is one molded oblong piece with degree's marked in it. Which allows you to set the wheels with the same camber. I believe i bought it at Lordco for around 30 bucks. I have them installed on all my pre 88 Fiero's. As to how well that bump steer kit is going to work, it will be night and day, John you are going to love it. Its the next best thing to installing an 88 Cradle in your car, and I'll bet with your fancy coil overs and really big tires, you should be even better off than any 88 on the road. However please tell me that Blair has convinced you to go to the Lebaron brakes. I am really scared for you. At higher speeds, those stock Fiero rear brakes just are not going to give you the stopping power you will need to save RBS. I know you like having an e-brake so Grand Am rear is out of the question, but look into the Lebaron swap. I am sure Blair can tell you all the parts and cheaper ways of doing it. Plus the larger brakes will look so Amazing behind you FAT wheels and tires. Before you ask, yes you can go with Rear only Lebaron. Mainly due to your really large rear tire. There is no way you are going to lock it up even with the grand am on the rear before your fronts lock up, as you already have the equal to Grand Am front brakes. ------------- Capt Fiero 88 Fiero GT 5spd V6 Eight Fifty Seven GT V8 5spd. |

I will chime in here and say Dave's suggestion is a very good one Johnny. Our new car has this very same conversion and it rocks! Lebaron rotors and Cadillac calipers. And yes, we have a functioning parking break also which is nice...:) Not the easiest conversion to do however. If you decide to try this you're welcome to come and see our setup.

Thanks Capt and Dawg for your suggestions going bigger brakes, that was always on my list, but you know I've been putting it off. I love Willwood 13" or Corvette 12", but that's just a pipe dream , so lebaron it will probably be. Blair gave me the list of part for that.
FLASHBACK... A couple mouths ago Clynt and Patrick helped me installing a larger brake booster for $50 from the wreckers. Some fun shots of that swap, clynt showing me how it's done, then makes you do it

Here is the RX7 nose, it was to wide and I cut it to fit, that was a long time ago (maybe 3-4 years). Clynt and I took the nose down from the garage rafters, it was full of dust and place it in front and it wasn't going to work out at all. It was way to wrong and too round. I'm going to use Tim's old stock nose that Dave gave me and I'll play with that. 
Way to round for me, the stock nose is easier to make changes to and it will fit

Johnny Boy, as much as I'm a huge proponent of weight reduction... You have a chopped front end with nothing in it. Out back, you have a large 3.8L V6 with a supercharger on top, and a small country's worth of bondo... We're going to need to take a mould, take of all the bondo and do a carbon fibre rear end, just to get the balance back.

Thanks Terry, I have the DREAM TEAM working with RBS Project, Clynt, Patrick and Blair.
Edit: Terry, feel free to photoshop (have fun with it) the new RBS what it may look like with the extreme facelift, lower, shorter nose, longer windshield, and 4" chop, combo look between a Ferrari and Lambo

Johnny, you're being far too kind to me. Blair did an amazing job with the 3800sc installation, and Clynt is being a huge help to you now with your body mods. But other than stopping by occasionally to make sure you're not hurting yourself, I haven't done a helluva lot!
