Guys/Girls still looking for bigger braking or wide track suspension, check with West Coast Fiero as a possible source for the upgrades for your replica.

Here is the measurements for the front caliper bracket.  I don't know the measurements for the rears as I didn't use a Fiero back half of the chassis.  Because the front adapter bracket mounts on the outboard lugs of the front spindle/knuckle, you will need to machine the lugs flat and at 90 degrees to the vertical spindle.  If you choose to use wheel adapters, you will have to install longer studs into the hub.

What ya got for suspension upgrade?  What wheel bolt pattern, stock Fiero/custom wheels?  Do you want ready made or are you going to make your own along with the rotor centering ring?

I came here to ask the same question. I think I'll end up going with V8 Archies 11.25" complete kit. ($1440.)  The 15" wheels have you at a disadvantage.  You may want to just find some good drilled, vented stock sized rotors.

What the Hell? Do you think we have forgotten the two pages of circle jerk from the last time you wanted brakes? Or have you forgotten? If so, refer to Dec 14th,2018 Want to Buy...Big Brakes.

15" rims won't give you much room for a big brake kit. 11" rotors should fit fine, but I'm not sure if you could get the 12" upgrade to fit. There are lots of brake upgrade threads available on PFF (Pennocks Fiero Forum). Just do a quick search over there.
