Affiliated Auto........never heard of them, might have to go check them out on one of my days off. How are their prices? Still trying to track down a good engine and awd tran.

Oh if any ones in need of a 6 bolt head I've got 3 good ones kicking around I'm willing to part with ......and some random interior panels for a 1g.

 

[1990AWD]

Affiliated Auto has pretty high prices, but that's the best selection of DSMs I've seen in a long time, granted I haven't been to Amigo's this year.

FYI Affiliated is along highway 12 a couple miles before Martensville, bright red roof on the building.

Thanks mike, I did Google them so i know exactly where they are now. I'll have to go check them out but they'll probably be to pricey for me right now.

As far as I know amigo's has next to no talons, they rarely get them in stock but it has been awhile since I went. Bucks tends to get more talons then them, they said they have 2 new ones in stock but they haven't put them out in the yard yet.

 

[BlkSmk]

Anyone up for a meet in greet in Davidson sometime in June???

 

[buhay6]

is it a big deal if I come in my supra? As my talon will more then likely not be completed by then, I'm still not done cleaning up the chassis let a lone putting the drive tran in.

 

[BlkSmk]

All cars are welcome.. I know there is an event in the making with the Subaru guys Aug 4th. It's a AWD event. I'll post more information once we finalize votes..

Also Saskatoon guys. Im here in town May 10-th to the 12th.. I'll be at SIR tonight for the season opener of test n tune..

Sweet, see ya at street legals on the 24th?

I need tires, finish catchcan install, and dial it in, none of which I think I'll have done before then...maybe the tires, but I need Conrad to do some welding for me to get my Thermal RD exhaust on, fix up my atmo dump, etc...

The catch can/currently routed lines is the only thing that would probably fail tech now. I may try to get some 45's and see if I can route around my intake elbow.

Going to push 25-30psi on pumpgas, no meth...so going to be interesting

I hope to make the test and tune. Would be a hopefully nice day to do some 'safe' dialing.

 

[greddy_1700]

Good luck with 25-30 PSI on pump, its a tad ambitious in my mind, but if you can do it all the power to you!

Just found out last night I have to pull my engine, so I am going to make the best of it. Time to clean up the engine bay again and fix the random oil leaks my car has.

 

[1990AWD]

Why do you have to pull the engine?

 

[greddy_1700]

Turns out my alternator tension bracket bolt (the one through the waterpump) snapped at somepoint last season. Its too close to the frame so the only way to extract it is going to be by removing the engine, timing belt, and water pump.

Im taking this chance to fix some things too, just not the ideal time for it.

 

[1990AWD]

That sucks, too bad you didn't notice it last fall so you could fix it over winter.

 

[buhay6]

Well at lest yours runs, I finally broke down and bought a core engine from affiliated. Had a fresh head on it and new timing components so I took a chance on it, popped off the oil pan and found a finger nail work of bearing material in the bottom. I'm just hoping its balance shaft bears but that's pretty unlikely.

Also scored a turbo smart single stage boost controller, looked it up and its like a $180 boost controller.

Thanks for a heads up on affiliated Mike, payed off for me big time.

 

[BlkSmk]

Just got back. Ordered more parts and really hoping to have my talon driving around by july 5th. Ill most likely be in Regina friday till monday noon if anyone wants to visit.

 

[BlkSmk]

Spotted a white talon south side regina. By sparkys family restaurant. Looks like a exhaust

 

[greddy_1700]

Well, managed to get the broken bolt out by removing my timing belt and water pump and using an angle drill and left hand drill bits. Now I am just waiting to get a new water pump gasket so I can start puting the car back together.

Oh and I cant wait to try out the combo of the meth injection set up, new jacks 2.1 trans, and the vr4 4-piston big brakes. Should be a fun summer now.

 

[1990AWD]

Yay!! Can't wait to see it out again!

It'll be interesting to see how well it can do with a transmission that can actually shift.

 

[greddy_1700]

I doubt that I'll make the trip to SIR this year though, for one, my meth kit wouldnt pass the tech there at all. I think next winter I will worry about the custom tank, and run all SS lines to make it legal for SIR.

 

[1990AWD]

Ah, I see. Maybe fastest car shootout in Swift again though.

If it doesn't rain tomorrow I'm gonna go to the track and see about getting that 12 second stock turbo slip.

 

[BlkSmk]

Talon should be out July 1st, then it will be most likely for sale. If anyones interested
