I only got $1300 and that's it. An AWD Talon here goes for about $3500-$4000. I really love my talon even if it's slow and automatic. I plan on keeping my baby now. It may sound stupid but i grown attached to this car.
alright well thanks ill purchase a haynes manual as soon as i get more money and yea the turbo is out of though and ill go ahead and do a stock rebuild. i pulled most of the clips and got the exhaust out just waitng on the cherry picker to come in so i can lift the car. thanks for all the help...
well i got a cheap intercooler with all piping so ill just clean it up with a somewhat stock rebuild for the motor maybe save the turbo for another car. but how would I pull the motor?
I purchased my first DSM back a couple of months ago for $900 its a 97 Eagle Talon ESi. It was stolen and ran without NO OIL. It has loud knocking and the transmission will not shift and smokes horrible. I want to rebuild the whole motor. New pistons new head etc. what parts will i need to do a...
Okay there was some rattling from my rear struts every time I hit a dip.I jacked up the car and decided to fix the problem I did not install them the first time because I didn't know how but the sound was annoying and it gave me something to do.I just want to know why does...
It's a white smoke and no we checked for leaks and it all came up fine. I'm taking it to autozone and getting a print out today. I put the hose from a home air conditioner and it fits snug where the vacuum line broke. I use plumbers tape so it couldn't leak. It still didn't' help.
First day I got the car it showed up as a air valve or something wasn't too sure but it was a $200 part so I didn't have the cash to get it right away. I remembered doing the gasket that this vacuum line broke.
Need some help please! My 97 Talon ESI Is been having some problems. I recently replaced all gaskets and seals. After this we timed it perfect,after it was oiled up I took it for a ride. It had way more mad compression and ran like a champ. Now I was embarrassed taking out tonight that I had to...
I got a torque wrench finally so will I need to get my head machined if I want my head gasket done. It doesn't over heat just smoke so will I be safe. Oh where can I get the torque specs also.
Well I was just being safe if the turbo will spool and tranny shifting too late or too early will have any effect. Never turbo a car but drove one and was really concerned about shifting too early or late will affect the turbo. Sorry I know but I'm a noob when it comes to these things.
Boosting my '97 Eagle Talon? Okay will my Talon is automatic so I want to be safe and sure I'm not making a mistake. If I boost my Talon and say only pushing 5 or 6 even though they can handle ten pounds will it be safe with the automatic transmission. I'm boosting for style not performance...

I Love This Sh*t.
I pulled up to work for the first time in my Talon,peeps where checking it out then this kid says you should of bought a Eclipse instead of the knockoff? WTF!
Well I got my Coilovers and the back ones are installed and ready to go but I can't get the front ones off. In the front there is this bolt on the bottom that slides out of these fork looking things to get the old springs out. Any help like seriously I can not get this I tried everything!
My key is stuck in the ignition it's on ACC. I can't retrieve the key even though it's in Park. I tried putting the car in Neutral the to Park but it seems it don't help. I never had this problem and it sucks where I have to leave the keys in the car all the time. Please someone help the...
Well it's Friday you don't have a place where tuners meet up an shit. Here we have a long ass street called Northern. We usually post up in a parking lot that is freaking huge. Peeps usually take first dates there lol and make runs down Northern to see the other cars.
I just ordered some coilovers wich may be a mistake after all. Should I do the whole suspension at one time or an I just do one part at a time,like the camber etc. Just wondering if it will affect tire wear?
Looking for an 05 Civic I came across the Talon for a cheap price. Kinda wanted a new toy. Dam people are so angry now days I was just joking about the disliking. :notgood:
I Couldn't find any good results using search so i'm just going to post my problem here. Usually when I come to a stop a nasty smelling white smokes comes out my exhaust. The HG was recently replaced so that shouldn't be it. Oil is good i'm using 5W-30. Using Unleaded fuel,I recently bought some...
Thanks for all the love peeps. Like I said i'm not to familiar with the DSM scene and I knew it wasn't boosted but everyone tells me that it's weird that it's not boosted. From what my friend told me the engine was swap so the 20,000 miles isn't correct. I had a feeling this was boosted at one...
Hello this is my first DSM it's a 97 Eagle Talon TSi. I'm not such the DSM type of a guy since my 2 other cars were a 90 Si CRX and A 92 LS DA. Purchased for $900 at a used car lot. It came with the Eclipse wing and that was pretty much the only mod. I am a newbie and is unfamiliar with the car...
