If any has seen a Samurai, I'd love to see one with all kinds of shit done to it.Thing looks like a babies car or something.BlackViper

I'd care about trading my FWD for an AWD if I was trying to turn it into a drag car.As of right now I only need a car to get to work and drive to San Diego from Sacramento with. The FWD Talon does them both nicely.BlackViper

LMFAO that was one of the best things about that movie.BlackViper

Only thing I'd add to your pros section is its a Toyota, which is a good thing. Other than that your post is perfect.My friend has a nice red 1991 MR2. They can hang with a DSM, maybe even better. The only thing we have on them is perhaps lower mileage and a warranty.If you can...

I thought a hole on the tip made it louder or annoying?BlackViper

I wonder how they get such great video in that last link?Considering that those lions beat the shit out of the hyenas, just think what they could do to the camera man.BlackViper

Usually people post videos of DSM's winning...not terrible driving.BlackViper

Are you being sarcastic?I can't tell.BlackViper

That is kind of wrong to get a ticket for the stock spoiler, but I'd be more likely thinking about what the stock engine will get you ticketed for.It is much easier to blame someone else than to take responibliity for your actions.You can quote me on that. :PBlackViper

Is it just me or is there a hole drilled in your exhaust?BlackViper

California is quite a nice place.If only we didn't have such terrible gas and emissions laws.BlackViper

Well I liked the 97 spoiler so much that I drilled some holes nad stuck it on my 96 Talon.Just went down to a place and got a 98 Burg. Black Talon trunk lid.Going to put that on with my 97 spoiler and get it all painted.I have never seen so many Talons\Eclipses in one place...

Hi all, I need a little advice.My 96 stock Talon spoiler started to oxidize so I took it off and instead of just re-painting it I wanted to get a 97 Talon spoiler and put that on.So I've got all the holes from the stock spoiler and I made about 6 more for the new 97 OEM spoiler...

Good deal on the 98 Talon.I see 95-96 AWD Talons for 4-5k.My 96 Tsi cost 7k 3 years ago.God that was a great choice. :)BlackViper

http://www.dsmtuners.com/tuning-guide/1gturbo/stage1power.phpI'd get Apexi if you have the money and RNR if you want to make your money last longer than your exhaust.If you don't want to spend it on the engine, then suspension is definitely what I'd do.I love good handling...

Yeah, why do you think they're called Canadians?BlackViper

Maybe this should be in the Newbie\General Forum.BlackViper

Hope they have sponsors.BlackViper

I have a red top Optima for my 96 Tsi and it fits fine.You didn't say what kind of car you have and it doesn't say by your name so I can't really help you out much.BlackViper

Look far enough behind you to see 199X.I don't think the history of Import racing is actually the kind of thing people write books about.Not like its as important to our education as WWII.Although I could be wrong, I'd say Imports are still making history as we speak...

"Legally" is the key word to Ripper's reply.I can't legally take off my cat and put in a straight pipe, but does that stop me? Well actually, yes.Anyway how can the damage cost that much?My mom's turbo PT Cruiser got smacked in the ass by some drunk lady and they welded on...

Don't want to make you fell worse by talking about it more, but how'd it happen?If you think about how many people get into car accidents a day I would not take it too seriously.I'm just lucky I carpool to work or I'd probably be buying an Evo instead of modding my Talon.I...

Perhaps a link to the picture you edited would help.I know I can't make out anything but a line circled in red.BlackViper

Why was the install a pain in the ass?My directions from VFAQ were incredibly easy to follow.Visit the sponsors and you will find some different fuel pumps.Theres always the idea of going to a junk yard and getting a fuel pump out of a TT Supra.Might be due to the fact...

I can only remember one blue 2G, which belongs to L2RTSiAWD.Might as well be the only one to remember as far as I'm concerned. :thumb:BlackViper

Thats exactly what the guy says it is."It was fabricated using 3 DSM cores and is FOUR inches thick.""There are a few pinhole leaks that can be detected by capping the intake and outlet and pressurizing the intercooler and submerging it in water, but per most turbo books, a few tiny...

"The intercooler was welded by an amateur TIG welder, but appears to be structurally sound."I could have done a better job with a truck battery, jumper cables, and a box of nails.Hehe, 3 DSM cores. Well shit it must be 3 times better then.BlackViper

Thats the kind of forum I need to visit more often.(sarcasm)---^BlackViper

I'd paint my Black and White Talon Black and Blue if I needed a new paint job, but my stock paint job is holding up fine. It definitely doesn't look new, but I am fine with the way it looks now.Would of loved a blue Talon, but I'm just glad I have a turbo. :thumb:Maybe L2RTSiAWD can...

You can't worry about having too big a IC because it justs cools the air down a little, not like its going to freeze the air or anything.You should be more concerned about getting one too small for the amount of power you plan on making.Figure out how much you want to pay and plan it...

I would get a front mount if you plan on running high boost with your T-28.You can get IC pipes for your stock sidemount if you do not want to go as far as the T-28 can go. If you want to make as much horses possible with the T-28 then you should get a FMIC.If you have the money...

Do you have a boost controller?Your mods only say cold air intake and exhaust.http://www.dsmtuners.com/tuning-guide/2gturbo/stage1power.phpYou cannot just put a bigger turbo on your car without the very high risk of seriously hurting your engine.BlackViper

Let them underrate it if they want to.Numbers mean nothing to me and thats one thing I like about the people here. I saw on another forum, you'll have to guess which I won't say, where every single person just about had the number of horses and torque in their sig. It was kind of...

Glad to hear you got money out of that. Do you have another job yet or are you still looking?I know I will offend someone, but I really think there are almost no mechanics in this world that aren't trying to #### you over.Its kind of hard to blame them considering how easy it is to...

Yeah thats a terrible offer.A 99 turbo AWD Eclipse could sell for that much.Around where I live you can get a turbo 1G for 2K, if its good one.BlackViper

Sounds like someone is out to get you.If someone is actually doing something to your car everytime you do something to it, I'd definitely get a camera like xxdprussxx said.Freaking stalker or something you got there.BlackViper

Holy shit thats funny.Guy just jumps in your car, LOL.That would be kind of freaky.Should get an alarm like my Viper Responder.I turn the key up to start the engine it automatically locks the doors.That is if I don't use remote start.Turn the key back to get...

That was quite sometime ago, lol.I don't really remember Nintendo that much, but I do remember renting Super Nintendo and thinking it was the greatest thing ever.Those games were so great you could play for days and days.What the hell happened to games I can barely play for...

Looks like some horrible driving to me.BlackViper

I got a rebuilt Japanese engine from a place in Chico and my dad and I lifted it onto and out of the back of his Dakota.It of course did not have intake manifold or exhaust and turbo on it, but it really wasn't that heavy.Its 2.0L not a 8.3L V10 Viper engine.Although sometimes...

Are you talking about the side exhaust?Because whatever that is hugging the back bumper isn't the exhaust.BlackViper

I really don't like any bodykits for any kind of car, but that looks damn good.Nice big aggressive front bumper.BlackViper

Exactly. Why don't you ask the same thing on a Honda forum and see what they think.I would definitely be surprized if one of them said, " preludes suck, buy an Eclipse."BlackViper

If there is such a company, I will be shocked.BlackViper

I see turbo AWD DSM's go for that much around where I live.If you need a new transmission and its not even turbocharged I'd say more like 3k.Then again if you find someone stupid it'll cost them as much as you want them to.BlackViper

Squirrels are underrated, like DSM's.BlackViper

The guy with the problem didn't know it took more time to get other flavors of ice cream?Must have been someone stupid or else it might have made sense.Now figuring out whats wrong with your DSM is another story.Not even rocket science can help you there.BlackViper

Theres been snow at my house once in the 5 years I've lived here.I only moved 20 minutes down the freeway from my old house, which snowed almost as much as Lake Tahoe.I hate the rain too. Makes for bad driving and I like to go reasonably fast.BlackViper
