He said they idled just fine. But he has always had his idle set at 18000roma due to the cams.

He said the only issues hes having is a hiccup while cruising around 60mph or partial throttle.

But said he drove around today and said it drive great other then the above issue. He said the tuner wad able to adjust some of it out but couldn't get it all.

This is a short clip of idle and sounds better. The first one sounds like rod knock

Other question I have is I know the current owner bought the eagle steering wheel from tkrperformance on here. And the pictures of the car when he bought it had talon side rails on the door. But had unpainted front and rear eclipse bumpers.

Hes since pulled the side rails off (which I will have to have the holes filled and the car painted) which I knew about.

But my concern is this. The vin he gave is for a 1997 eclipse. Amd I have never heard of anyone going from an eclipse to a talon look. Usually its the other way around.
Now I don't care if its a talon as it looks like an eclipse. My concern is if there is something else going on.

If anyone sees tkr on (mark right?) Please ask him if the guy who bought his steering wheel ever mentioned what kind of car it is for.

In recent years 2gb talons have become the ones everybody wants, so its becoming more and more common to convert them to talons. Not uncommon at all.

I always like the talon with eclipse front and rears. Even the two tone look they had.

This issue is more of a trust thing then anything else. All his seller/buyer raitngs have been great. Amd so far hes been excellent with communication and answering questions.

That's a minor thing. My car is an Eclipse with Talon front and rear, pretty common to swap parts these days.
