Buying parts for Talon TSI AWD?

[fmars62]

Alright first off I've searched and haven't found anything but if I have a 2g talon tsi awd and I want to buy parts for it, on websites when it says to select my type of car can I just put in eclipse gsx?

Yes if you need to buy parts from a parts store besides body parts..Just tell them it's for an eclipse.

As far as performance parts...Use tuners supporting vendors..And if you call them and tell them eagle talon they know what car you have..

Anyone chime in and correct me if I'm wrong, but
Yeah, any part you get for gsx would work for a tsi awd, the only thing youd have to worry about are the difference in years.

 

[Bud92gsx]

Yes any same year eclipse part will swap over to a talon..Minus body parts well they will to but that's not the question..

And also minus the 95's made in 94 some of those are obd1..

All 2g gsx and tsi awd will exchange except you have to change some stuff if you swap a 95-96 car with a 97-99 ecu and vicea-versa. Other than that all drive train and motor parts are the same. Also I have never seen a obd1 2g, not saying they don't exsist but probably rare enough to say they don't.

 

[Bud92gsx]

Rare yes but they are out there..They were made in 94, obd2 didn't come out till 95..So if a car was produced in 94 it most likely has obd1, even tho the model year may be a 95..

As far as parts stores are concerned, YES...

Mits dealership, just say it's an eclipse..And If they ask for the vin, they don't need the vin, they just need to be smarter with the computer program ASA..

If you buy parts from our supporting vedors you can tell them its a talon, they know the difference, but there is none..It's just some of the parts stores don't even know talons came turbo or awd..

thanks my friend. and couple more questions, can i put the 97-99 gsx front and rear bumpers on a 97 talon? and for both awd talon tsi's and gsx's are they awd all the time or is there a switch to change them fwd and awd? like a 4x4 truch you han have 2wd or then awd

full time awd and the front bumber bolts right up with eclipse headlights the rear does not with out modifications to the bracket below the center tail light

The body can be converted to an eclipse, but why would you? The 2gb talon is probably the most desired body out of dsms.

well i was just wondering, i love the body of the the talon but i would just want the eclipse front bumper, i was just curious if the rear would just bolt on though

actually i just put my 2gb talon(97) front end on my 2ga eclipse(95) and the headlights dont fit right

The 95-96 headlights won't fit right if I'm not mistaken there is a gap with the 2ga headlights in a 2gb and the bumper over laps if you use a 2ga bumper with 2gb headlights or vise versa can't remember off hand. But you are correct they won't match up right.

 

[dsmjunk]

The headlights i think are a little to big. And the bumper i had to squeeze it together to get it to fit right. There was a little more then a little bit of work.
