I'm putting away my talon for the winter (trying to avoid salt). So I'm starting to mull around ideas for what to do when I take it out in the spring. Ever since I've gotten the car I've heard/read that the car will never be fast without completely building the engine and even then it won't...

I'm driving a 1997 Eagle Talon Esi. 420a. Non Turbo. I've had some problems with leaking oil, its been about a quart every 800-1000 miles. A shop said the leak could be the valve cover gasket. So I'm about to replace the gasket and do an oil change. Since I've had the car running (beginning of...

So the other day I pulled my 1997 eagle talon esi out of the garage for the first time. (I bought it as an engine rebuild project, I haven't driven it before) It is a manual transmission. I go to shift into reverse and the transmission does not shift. My buddy opens the hood, and while I have...

I posted about a sunroof problem a while ago. Essentially, a previous owner installed an aftermarket sunroof that the seals had failed and he very messily sealed it with silicone. So I popped it out, thinking I could just replace and then found out it wasn't original. I decided the...

hey! So a previous owner installed an aftermarket sunroof in my car. Of course something went wrong and instead of repairing it they just messily caulked on some silicone to seal the glass and called it a day. The interior trim was broken so I decided to pop it out not realizing it was...

Here is a 2gb talon front bumper. Its damaged so I took it off of my talon because I don't know how to go about repairing it. I tried to take decent pictures of the damage. I'll have it sitting out until it gets taken to the dump. I don't know when that will be. $50 or offer. Pick up only.

Hey all. I have a 97 talon esi with the 420a engine. I had the cylinder head done by a machinist now I'm putting it all back together. I have all the timing components on and ready to go except for the crankshaft pulley (harmonic balancer). So my question is for those of you that have done it...

I recently bought a 2ga front bumper for my Talon. The 2gb bumper currently on it has been torn and shredded in someplaces. I think a previous owner went over a curb or a parking spot a few times. Regardless, I'm looking for ideas on how to make the 2ga bumper look a bit more subtly interesting...
