1 week folks!!!!!!!!!! Cant fricken wait! :) :) :)A bunch of us are staying @ Kalahari but will be making rounds to the different hotels to catch up with friends.

:( nononono! lol

as of right now, Ill be driving the srt unless some miracle happens and I get teh talon done. please dont shoot flame throwers at the skittle tho. lol

I will be there all weekend. Hopefully in the tsi with the URSLOW plate....if not ill have the eblue srt with cf hood and trunk and the plate that says KNDAFST.

I owned this car for 4 years. It was a 7 bolt for the whole time i had it. I sold it in 09 with 130k on the original motor.

Ill be there with my tsi!!!! :) :) :)

Thank you! Where is the snow drift???

I usually let mine warm up for 10 min each morning in the winter and about 5 min each morning in the summer.

you dont have to paint it every month if you do it right. yes, i do recommend powder coating (around 75.00 on ebay for a painted v/c) but if you dont have the money and are looking to make it look nice, you CAN spray can-it. Like i said, make sure to get high temp paint and make sure you let it...

You can get a lifetime warranty valve cover gasket for like 20.00 at AZ, Oreilly, advanced auto, etc. Do not just use gasket sealer. This is a very easy thing to do. If you are going to just spray the v/c,then you need to sand it a bit to scuff it so the paint will stay. Also you should use high...

depends on what boost you are running. When I had the evo 3 16g on my gsx, i was experiencing fuel cut around 18psi. You really dont wanna go over that without upgrading your fuel system. I upgraded to a Walbro 255 and pte 680cc injectors,and pressure regulator .

hmmm......not necessarily a bad thermostat. Both my 2g's did what yours is doing and i had a 160 stat in the gsx and a 195 in the talon a while ago. I think that the heat on these cars are just not that great. Ive never been in one that had toasty heat to be honest.

OK.....so the question is..... how long have these tires been on the vehicle. It clearly doesnt give a time these tires have been on the car. He stated he has owned the vehicle for 3 YEARS and has noticed them wearing unevenly in the past few months. How often have you rotated them? etc.

I had the HKS SSQV on the gsx when i had it. The sound is absolutely phenominal! I love it and received many compliments on it! I also really liked the 1g crushed BOV, even tho it is stock, it still sounds pretty good! =)

He stated he "wasnt" looking to do that.Anyhow, yes, you should just stick with the mods that you have now. Find a gsx,gs-t or TSi to start a build from. They are very easy and cheap to modify and you can get great power from them if you know what you are doing! :D

I had glowshift tinted gauges in my GSX for a year and they worked great and I sold the car. I had the boost, A/F, and trans temp gauges. Before I bought the glowshift, I had autometer prolite gauges and the boost gauge always sat on 2psi when the car was off and my glowshift always sat on 0...

yes sir, i am. that same shop is also the shop that blew the engine on my talon :notgood: that I am currently putting back together right now......its going to be wayyyy better now tho! :D

LOL are you talking about Bender? Hes one of my very good friends! :D Thanks for the welcome!

Welcome to the site!

You are wrong.Also, crankwalk is more common or heard of on either of the two(mostly 7bolts) with a manual tranny. This is caused by the clutch/flywheel being pushed in against the crank constantly, thus causing the crank to weaken and then you get crankwalk.

Sorry to hear that you got hosed. I know how you feel. I sold my GSX that was MINT back in October for a 1997 Pontiac Trans Am I go and test drive the car in the dark and in the rain (yeah im an idiot) Decided I would buy it. I get the car home, wash it all up and realize that the entire...

Welcome to the site!

Thank you! :)Also, I didnt post the pictures to become some kind of "forum whore" or "attention getter". I just posted the pictures in my album. the rules did not say I couldnt post them.And thank you to everyone for the warm welcoming. :)Sorry, i didnt see that. I have 2 LT1's...

yeah, dang ya caught me. When i get my project thread posted ill prove ya wrong! :D

Monroe area here

Thanks! :) No, hes not from on here.

There are lots of pictures in my gallery! :) Check them out!

I really like the 2gb eclipse bumpers so that is why i was going to change them. I may not, im not sure yet. That was just an idea. But we will see what happens. Right now, my main focus is finishing the engine and performance mods. The exterior upgrades wont happen till spring most likely.

I had the HKS SSQ BOV on my GSX and I was running 20psi and had no problems with it. The sound of that bov is sex for my ears! :)

Thanks guys! Im from the monroe area. It was VERY hard selling the GSX,I actually sold it to a friend of mine and it kills me everytime I see it. But I know it will be taken care of and I still get to see it all the time. The talon will be better than the GSX. My plans for the exterior are...

Thanks for all the warm welcoming! haha I sold the GSX because I thought it was time to move on. I will post some pictures of the car when i first bought it and you will see that it was completely reformed. I am the type of person who always likes to have a project and since I got the car where...

ebay has oem front 2gb bumpers for like 130 shipped. That is what i put on my GSX when i had it. I bought it with the blitz front clip on it and it was hidious, i converted the entire car to the 2gb bumpers.

Welcome to the site! get rid of the bodykits and go stock! =D

LOL yes I had 2 dsms and 2 lt1s at the same time and that would be an expensive mechanic bill! :p But yes, I do alot of my own work along with the help of my best friend.

HAHA! Thanks! Yeah, I miss the GSX really bad. But the TSi is lots faster and a 5 speed! I havent started on the exterior yet, but it will change a little bit in the future. No bodykits or anything, just gonna keep it clean like the GSX.

Hey everyone! My name is Missy and Im new to the site! Im from SE Mich. I have a 96 Talon TSi AWD with a 6 bolt swap. I am not new to the DSM world. I just sold my 95 GSX last month and I reallly miss it! I have 4 cars total.....a 1997 Pontiac Trans Am, a 1994 Camaro Z28, a 2003 Ford Ranger 4x4...
