I am having a pretty hard time finding a used 2.0 DOHC engine in my area. I live in upstate South Carolina and the closest one I have found with 80,000 on it was near the coast of Georgia. Does anyone know where I can get a motor closer than that and for a reasonable price? They are asking...
Well probably as you all have seen my thread about my engine blowing up I decided to use some of the spare time and tuck some ugly audio cable wires in which the previous owner just threw around. So heres a before and after. Tell me what you think.BEFORE : :cry:Wires where just...
Well I am thinking about doing a rebuild. Driveway rebuild of course and I was wondering of how much of a pain in the butt it is to do this? Also is there any technical guide online that will guide me through a 2.0 DOHC 420a rebuild? Thanks :)
Well last night as some of yall have seen the post my 420a in the 95 Eagle Talon ESI blew up and know has a rod knocking like hell. Very sucky when you have to drive 30+ miles home. Well now the car is up for sale at DSMSource but I am just looking into the option of replacing my motor...
I am having a bad sound from my engine. I have a 420a in my 95 eagle talon esi and all of a sudden I am getting a really bad rattling sound like piston is hitting bare metal or something. Put 2 quarts of oil into it yesterday and it fixed it. Well today I got a bit down the road and it...
Well I have a very stock interior in my talon that have complete plastic door panels and a plastic dash (I think thats the material). Well after time these panels have got scratched and hit and now the grey panels have white scratches on them which make the interior very ugly looking.Now...
The other night I bought those 6.5" sony xplode speakers. Well without any wiring knowledge at all I spliced, taped, and hooked up these speakers all by myself. I usually send my vehicle to the shop to get small and big things done to the car but I decided to be an over achiever. But now I...
Well damn I just found out Saturday night that I am going to be a daddy. I am only 17 though which really sucks and I am real nervous about the whole ordeal. I have talked to my dad about it and he said life is just like a game of backgammon. You get what the roll of the dice is. The sucky...

Well I have made a couple extra dollars so I have decided I am wanting to get a brand new muffler for the Talon. Now the question is what kind of muffler should I get. I am probably going to buy the muffler off Ebay to keep the price down till I can get my whole cat back system in the next...
Got them on a steal but I do not know what kind they are. They aren't with me at the moment so I don't know what the center cap says. These where on a acura integra so probably won't fit the talon but I will sell them.sorry kinda blazed :)
The big question has come on what color should I paint my rims... I have dodge avenger rims on the car which are 17's. My body is dark green and the whole top of my car is black since I got 5% tint done today. So now I am needing a good color in which to paint my rims until I get real rims...
What does everyone think about 5% tint on a 1995 Eagle Talon? Tomorrow morning I am scheduled to have all the windows except front windshield done in 5% tint. Do you think this is ricey or what? The only reason I am tinting the windows is because whenever I come out of a grocery store or...

Well heres my first project car that I am going to be starting on. I picked this 1995 Eagle Talon ESI up for $1500 and I am going to start redoing everything to make it a car in which people stare at when you pass going down the road or in the parking lot. I also will make it my daily driver...
I have got a question. I was driving down the road today and my power steering seems to get real hard at a turn and won't go back to normal. I checked my power steering fluid and it seemed low so I filled it but no help. It is hard as hell to steer now though. What could this be? I never...
