Hello everyone!!

My name is Adam. After a long search I recently bought my first turbo car, a bone stock 92' 1G talon. Its an auto with 93,000 miles. I plan to build an occasionally street driven drag car. A friend introduced me to drag racing and the DSM world, and after a few years of watching from the sidelines at the local track, I'm ready to dive in. I've been reading a lot of threads and have learned so much already thanks to this forum. I"ll be posting a build journal to track my progress if anyone is interested in following along. Thanks! :dsm::thumb:
 
Welcome dsmtuners, the number 1 spot for dsm. Most helpful community and unless info. Good catch on that buy. I live in jersey too. Not sure what part you are at but I know you know how hard they're to find aound this state.
 
Welcome to the site man,glad i'm not the only one who likes the helpfulness of the site LOL.

As always don't forget to get all the maintenance out of the way first, timing belt and tensioner,pulleys, fluids accessory drive belts, etc. :thumb:
Yea man this site has been a huge help, and maintenance is definitely #1 on the list. I'm currently as of yesterday diagnosing a random no-start condition. :banghead: :ohdamn:[DOUBLEPOST=1413952809][/DOUBLEPOST]

Thanks man. I got pretty lucky finding a completely unmodified car, unfortunately it was 3 hours away in New York. I'm in Salem county. Pretty far south, about 10 minutes from Delaware.

Welcome! DSM's seem to be getting pretty popular in the NE
 
lets make this a jersey only discussion. as someone who purchased a 1990 talon in jersey. where the wiring harness looked like the previous was a house electrician(wire nuts all over the place) congrats and you got very lucky. just keep an eye out for the rust as they like throwing out absurd amounts of salt on the streets when the snow is supposed to come.
ps this car left me stranded the very first day I drove it I wanted to take the car back to the guys house and tell him give me my money back
