Here is another project log in case you guys are bored. It is a 1995 Eagle Talon TSi AWD with 213k all original miles, ran perfect. I only bought it because it was green like my daily 95' talon Tsi and I have always wanted a AWD for a project.

Here are a few pictures from the last owner: No strut tower rust either

So I test drive the car for a good 20 minutes, car is great and decided I wanted it. Handed the owner 2.3k, he handed me the title and I was on my way home.

And a few pictures of it before the tare down next to my daily driver.

Got that a few days later. I had it bored .020, resurfaced and cleaned. Also had picked up some good 2g pistons with 1g big rods connected to them. Each cylinder was machined to each individual piston.

Now for the interior which I was a pretty big project too. The dash is a fiberglass mold of a stocker. Weighs like 7lbs if that. I also painted the center console and door panels to complete the interior then the following.

Also wired up the Megasquirt onto the passenger kick panel.

Then also picked up
-2 Corbeau Forza seats and harnesses.
- Boost, oil pressure ,water temp, exhaust temp and then 1 big ricer tach
- Extremepsi counter weighted shift knob
- Cut and welded b&m shift knob.

Final result :

Thanks man, you can also see how I painted the tails on the awd I think the all red rather than orange/red looks way better for sure.
