I called a place call auto parts extra and asked for some parts front shocks he qouted 88.00 each and struts for rear he quoted 157.00 each I told him I want our company discount and I would pay cash so he then qouted 35.00 each for shocks and 80.00 each for struts. I also asked for the best stock rotor's I can get he said cocst 152.00 for front my cost 82.00 and 95.00 for rear my cost through company 60.00 so I fell that is pretty good what do ya think also a friend at work said he can have them crossed drilled for me for a small fee.... so I am going to go for it next week already got the frist part now the rotor's. If someone needs some thing and I can price it also for you through our company discount let me know... I will be glad to help.

Wow! now that's a discount.  Cross drilling the rotors is really only an appearance deal on a street car.  Don't expect any improved performance.  On a race car the holes allow gases to escape but you'll never get them hot enough on the street to make a difference.

Sounds like a sweet deal though, and they do look nice. Can this guy get Eibach lowering springs at a good price?

Karl: The Eibach springs are to lower the Fiero.  The set we should use lowers it .8 inches according to the maker.  I believe there are two models (sport? and ?).

I think they retail about 450.00.  It's a set of 4 (frt and rear) 84-87 Fiero (all)  I can maybe get a # if you need it.

Thanks a lot.
