    10:30pm at night...

    I love the heat. When not at work I will be out cutting the grass, skateboarding or whatever from time to time. I just dislike the humidity. That type of heat is the worst.

    How many are running Ebay Headgaskets?

    Of course he did. When you double stack you can run double the boost on your turbo. Double the HG double the clamping force.

    Removing your A/C & P/S belt= More horsepower?

    Yup I get rid of my a/c systems for the reasons of air flow, weight reduction, and less rotating mass.

    balance shaft belt broke

    Yeah I would lose the balance shafts. I had the same thing happen to me a few years ago on my 90 n/t. The balance belt broke when I pulled off from a stop sign so I missed doing any damage. If you really wanted to keep them I would get the Gates belt kit.

    has anyone gotten out of an exhaust ticket?

    I have seen around here in VA its mostly about looks. I had a Thermal R&D system on my Talon and got pulled. I was let go with a warning. If you have an import car with a giant outlet 3" or more you are a target. I went to the muffler shop with a custom maganflow setup. I have a hi flow magaflow...

    Impreza front bumper on 91 talon.

    99.9% of the production body kits for all cars look stupid to me. The only body kits for any car that I have seen that looked nice were custom one off pieces.

    how far to go to get a gst or gsx

    I went with my friend from VA to NY to get his Talon. It depends on what it's worth to you. I know people who have hopped on a plane from VA to Cali and drove a car back because the price was right. When it comes to auto or standard I say look at your daily driving. If I had to deal with heavy...

    where to get OEM talon headlights???

    He was looking for 2G lights. But I like the first idea. Restoring sounds like a nice cheap idea to run with.

    Repair Cost Estimate...

    Yeah I agree that it will be well around 1k or more depending also on what parts are purchased and if you do the work yourself or not.
  18. Urban Survival

    Possible 1st DSM?

    I agree that you should give the car a good check over. The 1g I just bought had a bunch of little problems that could have been solved easy. Like coolant hoses not being tightened down or on completely like they should be.

    Yes you don't need the maft if you have ecmlink. I just took the maft off the talon I bought. I got the gm cable and it made things so easy.

    What Turbo is this? [Merged] Turbo ID Identification

    There is nothing wrong with buying a turbo off ebay. Just make sure its not a knock off. There are plenty of legitimate turbos and sellers on there. Just like with everything else in life you have to be careful when buying. And those turbos do look small.

    Heat Shield

    It should line up pretty easy. As stated above match the bolt hole and heat shield.

    cheapest most user friendly way to tune /logg

    I also agree with going with Ecmlink V3 Lite. Its a great price and gives you plenty of tuning options. I am debating about getting that on my dd or going full out Link like I have on my other car.

    How much did you pay for your DSM?

    I got my 1991 Laser turbo for $225 US in 2006. It had 92,000 miles and bent valves. I also got my n/t 1990 Eclipse for $200 US in 2007.

    idea's for new car

    ^^^ I agree to the regular maintenance and check up on everything. That goes from fluids, spark plugs, and filters. You never really know what the owner before you did to th car. Also take a look at all of your belts. I didn't check the belts on my beater GS and the balance belt went on me while...

    Am I rich or lean

    Don't worry you will. I ended up getting all new hardware for my pump install. That included the bolts for the fuel level reader as well. I had the tank out though and was cleaning it also doing a line upgrade so it wasn't that bad.

    GS with 4g63 Garrett T25 conversion.

    He doesn't have a 420a it is a 4g63 non turbo 2nd gen. Going by his past post he was trying to get documentation so his car can be basically classified as a GST in his country. However he needed the paper work to prove that his car was converted to the same specifications as the GST. He stated...

    Do I need a timing belt kit?

    Go ahead and replace it all now. They all probably have the same about of miles and abuse on them. Better to replace them now then have a major failure down the road.

    First DSM couple of Questions

    Nice looking car. I love the look of a clean 1g. I say go along with what was stated do general maintenance and check your ecu. It is a 1990 make sure it isn't showing any signs of having future failure.

    420A Fuel Injectors

    I agree. Hit the junkyards or check sites. There are plenty of 420a guys floating around. My friend alone has like 4 or 5 parts car 420a's in his yard. So check around.

    Where to get plastic clips that hold interior pieces in?
