Picked up another Talon Price is classified but got one hella deal. Was debating whether or not to grab it for about 3weeks and finally snatched it up about 10days ago. Got it because its incredibly clean and my other talon ('91) is not done yet (complete car restoration) Since then I've already done a ton. Plans are keeping it relatively stock but we all know how that goes
1995 Eagle Talon TSI AWD with 99 Eclipse full conversion (bumpers/skirts/lights) & wingless panda paint scheme (newer paint)
Came from Georgia, zero rust anywhere what so ever...serisouly. Wait I take that back, the brake fluid reservoir braket had some rust but I already sanded it down and resprayed it black.
106k all stock motor
155 compression in all cylinders
Boost is set to 15lbs (running off wastegate pressure) and running strong
Came with a folder of receipts from a fellow dsmer. List of mods/maint when I picked it up:
-new 02 sensor
-rear 02 sensor delete w.simulator
-new alternator
-tcase & rear diff fluids changes
-tran fluid changed
-rebuilt & socketed ECU by ecmlink
-new Taylor wires
-new bprk7es plugs
-new tstat
-new coolant temp sensor
-new alt/ps belts
-Apexi turbo back exhaust
-new Enkei RPF-1's
-new tires 235/45/17
-14b
-ss turbo oil feed line
-unknown fmic
-1g bov stock uicp
-Man Trans rebuilt transmission
-Exedy stg1 clutch
-newer stock rotors all around
-green stuff brake pads
-M2 lowering springs
-KYB AGX struts
-f&r camber correction
-autometer boost gauge
-sunpro mech oil pressure gauge
-cf hood
-some crazy radio that plays dvds
-unkown speakers but sound good
-K&N filter & hard intake pipe
-pc flat black vc with polished lettering
-new pcv valve
-rear strut tower brace
-cheapo tubular exhaust mani (looks like it cracked once before and was rewelded)
So overall fairly stock with some good maintenance
What I've already done in the past couple of days:
-oil change with full synthetic
-4g seats (2008 eclipse seats)
-removed full a/c system
-removed egr & canister
-autometer mech oil pressure
-fiberglassed gauge pod in center vent
-removed cruise control & fabbed short cable
-relocated battery to subframe
-new slave cylinder
-accumulator bypass & ss line
-cut/weld stock shifter
-abec3 shifter bearings
-6spline lug nuts
-full detail
Current plans:
-different fmic & piping
-bov
-fugly shift boot
-door panel insert to match the seats
-fix the font bumer while off
-8k HID lights
-replace tubular mani with fp possibly or port a stocker 2g
-timing belt w/all new pulleys/tensioners
-bs removal
-new oem hg
-arp head studs
-act2600 w.street disc & OEM tob
