CAN A NIGGA GET A /MID-SHIP/ THREAD?

Thinking about picking up a clean AW11 this Saturday for $1300. I need some dank mid-engine whip pics to coerce me into going through with it.

Here ya go OP

It's got 200k miles, but besides that it's mechanically pretty good, passes CA smog. What should I look for when I maybe check it out Saturday? Should I go for it? Is it bad to shred up Fresh and snort it?

...

Thanksbb

...

My favorite midship is the Fiero
Too bad people chop them up to make ferarri replicas

ayy glad someone else shares my love for Fiero

>when you spend thousands of dollars making a car uglier
why

here's my '88

>ayy glad someone else shares my love for Fiero
indeed the most underappreciated of all the midships

>when you spend thousands of dollars making a car uglier
right?!
they look so good

Thats clean as fuck btw

thanks, i'm trying to keep it stock for as long as I can. the most frustrating part is finding tires for the stock wheels. they dont even make performance tires in that size anymore, so I might try to find some cheap RFP1's for autocross use.

I, too, love Fieros. I've owned half a dozen; this is my current one:

...

I would mainly look for the transmission popping out of gear.

How does it run with 200k? I'm picking up a free one with that much, and I'd like to know.

I'll keep an eye out, thanks.
According to the guy, pretty well, but I haven't seen it yet. 4age's regularly go over 300k so I won't be terribly surprised if it runs well with 200k.

we MR-too

...

...

Lol thats my old car. Someone saved my pic!
Hilarious!

based

...

...

Does anyone here own anything other than MR2s?

Well. Yeah.

considering the only affordable mid-engines are the mr2 and the fiero, probably.
also keep in mind it's an aw11 thread

>the only affordable mid-engines are the mr2 and the fiero
>implying

Me

...

What's the retail on one of those?

Probably something you can afford, pal

>tfw i had that same initial d license plate holder on my aw11
>tfw i sold my aw11
Sad

its a mid engine thread. the OP just was looking at an AW11 for sale

bump

haha i have 2 and always make the joke ive never met someone with just 1 fiero. i wonder why it is. anyways here is my first Fiero. cant wait to get i back out of storage

here is #2. my 3800 SC project.

Posting my Mister 2.

>MR

That's RR m8.

postin my mr2

That's fucking banging mate.

Went to look at a red 1989 today, 178k miles on it but clean as fuck and stacks upon stacks of service history.
New tyres, shocks etc, engine runs super smooth.

...

...

(one of these is actually an MRS with a bodykit)

...

...

At first glance it might look like an AW11, but upon closer inspection it is not.

Guess the car.

Thanks man, it's actually undergoing work soon as the one arch crumbled slightly when I rolled the arches to accommodate the Grids. I'll get the whole shell sorted though.

A 2ZZ swap is on the cards too. I'm selling my Beat to fund it though.

Ginetta G32. Gotta love the Mk3 Escort rear lights.

This could be you, OP.

...

Recently cracked my front engine mount and put a huge dent in my sump. Gonna have to buy one of those mount reinforcement plates

...

...

beautiful

saved as motivation to restore my white 88

>tfw needs piston rings replaced

s-someday

Nice, do you daily it?
How do you get through winter?

Yep, and it doesn't really get bad in the winter here so it's not bad, just dirty. Biggest problem is grit on the roads.

Man, I just love the Mk1b side skirts and front spoiler. Too bad there's no decent way to slap it on my Mk1a.

Lol, I have that license plate holder myself on my AW11.

I love the steering wheel and the black exterior trim on the MK1a

...

Fug, been eyeing an AW11 for a 2 months now, saving up for it. Just sold a few minutes ago. None left near me. Hold me pls.

some people have porsche boxers

Thoughts?

That's a pretty good price for a turbo, even if it needs a tune.

>1 person

are these speakers oem for the mr2 and Toyota fx16 ?
I think they might be Panasonic but Id like to know the model

the porsche general has three or four

Sell the celica first

Is it made out of cardboard? Cause IIRC, the OEM AW11 ones are cardboard inside.

Kind of surprising considering how cheap the cars are

Nice cars. I've always preferred the bumper pad aesthetic, but I've also owned half a dozen DeLoreans.

I think most people buy multiple Fieros because it's often cheaper to buy a second car than most parts. For example, I had one with a bad hood. The local salvage yard wanted $300.00; I offered $50.00, they got mad, and I went out and bought a $300.00 Fiero instead.

Those aren't stock, I've got a 85 aw11 and it's got the shitty stock speakers.

This is before and after plastidip. I got it for 1k with a bad alternator. 130k miles.

friend's mr2

ex's mr2

my mr2

Those scoops are pretty ugly

don't worry he traded it for a miata a while ago

>$15k
>"If you love to drive and don't want to shell out for a Porsche, this is your car"
>same price as a 986 Boxster S
>for an overpriced, autotragic 1ZZ powered shitbox
>">it's like shifting in a Ferrari"

Embarassing

Tell me everything there is to know about the Fiat X1/9.

It's shit

judging by your pic I can't tell you anything you don't already know

My mom had one. She says it was pretty good but her clutch slave cylinder went out and she had to fix it.

Crap. Lay it on me, save the rust. I already know to expect that.

the ones I'm looking for are cardboard and don't have a tweeter aside from that they are very similar
>I got it for 1k with a bad alternator
looks in pretty good shape
was the alternator rusty inside ?

I feel bad for whoever gets scammed into buying this, but realistically it'll probably be a long time Toyota loyalist who's buying his first sportscar for his midlife crisis

where the hell in cali are you getting these mr2's? where i live they are fucking 4k for one that is broken.

c-can I be in the midship thread too?

Can we stop having these? they make me feel bad. JUst stop

Postan mah rice. Fart can will be going soon, thank god.

...

Here she is. Megasquirt in the mail and a 4th gen waiting to drop in along with other goodies.

I wanna put a VR6 from a Golf 4 into a Gen 1 MR2.

On a scale of 1 to 10 how bad is my taste?

could be worse
I would worry about running out of room
also some dank noise

lol that sounds about right. there is a fiero on my craigslist right now for 375.

yeah when driving my silver fiero ive had multiple people think i was driving a delorean.

i mean, John Delorean did work at GM and even Pontiac Specifically but not very close to the Fiero release.

ever feel sad that you cant save them all ?
I console my self that at lest its parts live on in another car

there's an aw11 shell for sale near me for 1k and im so tempted to get it. i just have no idea how much putting an engine and whatever into is going to cost, but goddamn do i want that car.

I slayed the Evo Triangle in Wales in this yesterday. Glorious.

I wish AW11s were as cheap as SW20s.

>sw20 for 1700

Is fucked ?

>get the front of the Porsche.
>it has no engine
>get the rear of the Citroën
>it has no engine

This is cool concept, but you are supposed to have a French face and a German ass. Not the other way around ffs

>tfw the new golden age of the MR is still so far away
