Hey I'm 17 years old, live in Spokane Wa and drive a 95 mystique. It was cheap and a good first car but I am now looking to but a 1g talon tsi and make it run low 13's but still make it a daily driver. I don't have a butt load of money so I can't do it in a blink of an eye but I do have some cash. When it comes to cars I don't know too much about them but would like to know more. An example would be, why is a 6 bolt engine and 4 bolt rear so good? How is that different from the standard engine and rear?

A 6 bolt block and 4 bolt rear is the best combination that was available during DSM production. There really isn't such a thing as a standard engine and rear as they differ from every manufacturer and engine type (V6, V8, Inline 6, Inline 4, V10....etc..)


How did you come upon DSMStyle.com?

I came upon dsmstyle.com by searching the internet by using eagle talon tsi and google as the search engine. Does anyone know about how much it wold cost to buy a 1g and make it run low 13's maybe high 12's? What does crankwalked mean?

You can pick up a 1g anywhere from $1500 to $4500 and make it run low 13s for under $300....and some people have done it with jut the free mods. My 90'-AWD ran 13.3s with the free mods, fuel pump, K&N Filter, and a manual boost controller.

Do you know anyone with a 1g that is willing to sell thiers for a good deal? I have about $3700 and have a job so I could modify it more as time progesses. Thanks.

Are you willing to have one shipped? Most of us around from the Midwest, so unless you are willing to have a car shipped out to you, we probably can't help out a whole lot. The only thing we could probably do is post up any links we find of cars for sale in your area.

When it comes to DSM's "modify" means "fix." Good luck on the search.

How much do youthink shipping would be? If less than like $400 than sure if the car is good and runing but for a project car I would have to think about it.
