    My brother is trying to sell his GSXR600. Theres a guy that wants to trade his fiero for my brothers bike. If my brother gets the fiero he is just going to sell it. He came to me to ask about the fiero since I have a GTP but I'm not that experienced with them. I asked my brother to ask the guy about KR, and the guy doesn't know what that means. It wouldn't scare me if the engine was stock, but it's built. To me, I think the engine will just grenade without scanning. Can you guys tell if this fiero is any good? My brother would like to try to get at least $5k for it since that's what he values his bike at. Heres a link to the fiero: 86 fiero GT SUPERCHARGED rebuilt gtp swap meth injection 4spd 340whp . Thanks

    If it didn't look so riced out I think it would appeal to more people, might be a tough sell even at $5k.

    I don't see someone paying $5k for a Fiero. Normally guys that are buying those are buying it for a project not one that's already done for the most part and at that they're buying it for just a few grand probably around $2k or less.

    I would keep the bike and keep on trying to sell that instead.

    My concern was the engine. No scanning, and usually I see guys swap gen 5 s/c's onto the engine. This still has the 4. The guy doesn't seem to know much about series II engines or how to mod them. This guy who has the fiero said he bought it, but the rims, stereo and the meth on it and thats it. Another thing that worries me is I've seen the fiero for sale for awhile, at least 5 months. He can't sell it. He was asking 7200 but is now willing to trade for my brother's 4500-5000 bike? Doesn't seem right

    Sounds more like you don't know much about modding a 3800 lol
