Well, I finally got around to picking up my new 91 Talon TSI AWD. I got the car for $700 with a blown automatic transmission. I got the exterior cleaned up alittle bit, re-painted the rims, and dropped the transmission so far. The car came with an extra set of 3000gt (I think) rims, some carbon fiber altezza taillights, and a full set of drilled and slotted rotors.

Anyway, I just wanted to share my weekend, I have a few questions listed below, if anybody can offer some input, that would be awesome.

1) Is there an online FSM available? (like *.pdf format or something)
2) I plan on selling the carbon fiber taillights, how much should I ask for them?
3) What should I do with the 3000gt rims?
4) When the "new" auto tranny goes in I plan on replacing the torque converter, filter kit, pump seal, output shaft seal, and any other misc seal that I run across. Can anybody think of anything else I should replace while in there?
5) The headliner is sagging, any suggestions on this?
6) Where is the best place to order OEM parts, is there a place online? I need brake pads, e-brake pads, a driver's side control arm "knuckle", shifter bushings, ect.
7) How is the e-brake set up on these cars? The passenger rear wheel holds great, but the driver's wheel spins freely.

I think that's it for now.

Awesome, thanks for the info.

+1!

I have the taillights and rims in the classifieds section, so hopefully I can dump 'em to somebody who can use them. The 3000gt rims were an extra set that were in the car, which is why you don't see them. I did get pictures of them, and and the taillights, and they can be seen in the for sale section if anybody is interested. I also just found the link for the headliner fix yesterday, so I began working on that a bit. However, I still couldn't find a link to the online manual, can you post it please?
