I did some checking, and in fact, a Fuego Turbo Front Brake rotor is essentually the same as a GTA Front Rotor. The dish is a little thicker, but longer wheel...
Matt, The fuel pump is a major project. If you are from a non-rusting part of the country you will be better off. You have to drop the tank, which is held in...
Hi Matt, I have 2 GTA's & am the son of a mechanic so I know my way around cars ;-). Replacing the fuel pump on the GTA is a major job! Since it is a 20 year...
I'd be a bit careful unless you've already tried this and it works. The Fuego rotors are 5mm greater in offset which to me sounds like a lot. GTA rotors are...
Yes, the fuel filter is an in-line unit under the car. It is easy to get to and easy to change. Just be safe when you raise the car to get to it. Dropping...
The hat height of the fuego rotor is different than the one for the GTA. This means the offset is wrong and the rotor will not center in the caliper. You would...
