Name: Jake Leis

Home: St Louis Park

Car: 1990 Eagle Talon TSi (fwd)

Presently my car is at QPR getting the balance shafts removed. They put in a much better version of the Mirage 1.6L oil stub. Consequently, I went with that part. Previously, I bought a 3rd-world quality balance shaft eliminator kit off of ebay. So when I try to resell it again on there, don't tell the buyer ;) .

I just graduated from the U of M for Aerospace Engineering; so now I am applying for a ton of jobs.

Perhaps I will see a few of the members of this forum on University this Saturday. I'll be in a stock-looking burgundy Talon.

Regards, Jake

It's funny you should point that out. One day I was power washing my car in my hometown. I was spraying that fender and looked away for a second to adjust the hose. When I looked back, there were huge flakes of clear-coat on the ground. I was like "shiiiiit".

It just needs to be totally stripped down, repainted and clear coated... about $250 -$300 that I always end up spending on repairs and mods. I'll get around to it.

Welcome Jake! Best of luck finding a job. A buddy of mine is a honors student in AeroE at Iowa State and ended up giving up trying to find any form of internship because of the poor job market. I'm just glad I'm in agricultural engineering :bounce:
