New guy here

[91_awd_talon]

Hey guys I'm new to the forum. The names Jason, about 2 years ago I bought a 91 eagle talon awd for my girl as an xmas present. I bought it for 1000 from a buddy that didn't want it anymore due to personal reasons. it was clean and ran fairly well. About 3 months into owning it the time belt/tensioner took a shit on her she went out one morning to start the car and upon start up it bent all the valves in the head. So the car sat for about 6-8 months because we didn't have the money to fix it. When tax time came around I took it to a local shop that I trust and had the whole motor rebuilt. Here are some pics of the ride and some of the stuff done to it

Only problem the car had was on oil leak:

Then after a few months car broke on start up, the timing belt skipped some teeth and bent all valves.....so the car sat.

Just recently replaced the front axels which was surprisingly easy. So far with I have invested 4500 in the car this includes the price of the car. Oh I for got to mention the car is auto since it was for my girl I figured the auto trans would be fine and besides she doesn't like to drive 5 speeds well there it is in all it's glory if you have anyquestions feel free to ask. thanks

sounds like you've already had some of the DSM experience, at least yours ran when you bought it.

Car looks great, it looks just like my old 90. You need to get rid of the evo wheels it kills the looks, JK. I say that because you need to send them to me for my 92. I want a set of evo wheels bad. Looks good, do the tranny mod, and throw and exhaust on and enjoy. Oh yeah WELCOME.

damn nice car very clean.

 

[southrneclipser]

you have yourself a good looking car. you should drop it an inch or two. it would up the looks a lot

Nice panda, welcome!

 

[91_awd_talon]

Thanks for the welcome guys and she has some mods in mind that she wants for the car and lowering it is one of them. I basically joined the site for tech info since i don't know much about the cars and would rather do the work myself then spend money with a shop unless it's big shit like a motor rebuild so if I ask any noobish type questions please forgive me . I come from the nissan world I can work on those all day long . And the only dsm I've owned was a starion ( differnt engine platform but you guys know that ) I guess I should say I'm new to the 4g63.
