These two cars are wow. Love these two cars. Mad props to the white 1stgen.

Thanks for the props, I worked pretty hard to get it out there. Some things were a little rushy rushy, like the headlights. I didn't have a chance to wire them cleanly--everything was just kinda stuffed in there so I could do some tuning at night.

I eliminated the pop up headlights to save a good chunk of weight. The hood is CF and I made some fiberglass molds and attached the FG headlights to the CF and molded them in roughly for the SO. It still needs finishing, I'll be getting to it when I paint the car.

Thanks for the pictures!
 
hey nothing alittle body work cant fix you should of seen my talon when i first got her well now shes shiny as can be and no modlings :) so if choose that for the swap no biggy thats why its called a "project"

Just to prove I"m not dissing it, you should see my talon project haha. She's not pretty at all either. :sneaky:
 
I'm not sure if any one has heard yet, but they re-scheduled the shootout for October 13th at Norwalk. 9am - 6pm. :dsm: :talon: :laser: :thumb: :thumb:
 
1996 Hyundai Elantra is awd but its a talon all it is is a elantra body sitting on a talon frame the kid that owns it lives in town


That's ALL it is right?? So you could do all that calculating, welding, fitment, wiring the dsm harness to the stock hyundai harness?? Making everything work so you can use the car as a four door car?? Yea that's all it is buddy.
 
never said it was that simple im sure there was alot of fab work but i just think it would of ben cooler to leave the stock frame but ###### impossilbe
 
Yea. I'd rather see 4G63's in RX7's then Fiero's but everyones got their own opinion.

Hey Jean, is that piping custom to your FMIC. I like that SSQV in the front bumper. Sh1ts hawwt!!

Yes the piping is custom made by me and my friend ( spended less than $150 full aluminium tig welded) , its 2.5 from turbo to i/c and 3in from i/c to t/b. The position of the SSQV is there by mistake bacuse i didnt wanted the MAFT to be visible then when everything was made and the only thing left was the b.o.v i realized "shit i forgot that the bov should be before the maf sensor now where i am going to weld it???" 1 min. later i found the perfect place. The thing is loud. If you want pics of the bumper off pm me.

I do apologuise about the other message i was drunk that night , What the hell i was thinking talking $hit about a car faster than mine, sorry guys, and to the owner good luck with your project and please forget about i just wrote, im a dumb a$$ dsm owner shame on me
 
For the people bitching about the burnouts. The DSM shootout is not the only group of car people that come to Norwalk and do shit like this. The DSM Shootout is VERY tame compared to the Chevy show I was at a year ago out here. Not saying its the right thing to do, but its nothing new to them. Plus they deserve something for charging us 5-7 times more then the regular price I could get if I were to stop by today. Price gouging is illegal.
 
Price gouging is illegal.
I must have missed the official state of emergency declared in Norwalk during the Shootout that would have actually made price gouging illegal. (Hint: "price gouging" laws are meant to protect citizens during crisis situations, not help you negotiate a better price when you're in town for entertainment. The next time a hurricane hits Norwalk, you'll have a case. ;))
 
not to sound like a dick but does anyone have any interior shoots of the red 2g AWD spyder? LOL one thing i didn't do while up their

I have a couple of a green AWD spyder that was up there =) It mostly hung out around the econolodge due to some oil leak issues.

Acctully, at the time of the shootout, Huron County was declared a state of Emergancy due to flooding, but thats besides the pont ;) ...
