My 95 talon
 

I bought this car from talonfiero a few months ago. I've already raced it, and been having some fun with it. So I figured I'd put up a project thread so I could share the progress with my fellow dsmers.

Re: My 95 talon
 

That car is awesome, probably the only 2B I would want to get apart from 95tsi.
Good luck man.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Still rockin the dsmstyle stickers too!

Re: My 95 talon
 

Thats a great lookin ride, looks like its got some nice mods too, looks like a pretty big turbo stuffed in there

Re: My 95 talon
 

Adding fluids today and tightening eveything up. Jim would Thursday work for ya. (adding proper feul on link) Or if you think you can walk through it over the phone that would work to.

Re: My 95 talon
 

I can walk you through it no problem. I may be out of town Thursday. I'll let you know.

Glad to hear it will make the cookout!

Re: My 95 talon
 

still looks good. my old rims look good on the car also.

Re: My 95 talon
 

98, if you come to the blaine area (i'm 5 mins from lexington & 35w) I can help you out if Jim is busy.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Thing is I've never messed with link so maybe Jim can get me close and then I can meet up with ya.

Re: My 95 talon
 

And rockin the white db sticker

Re: My 95 talon
 

Thanks Jim and Aaron for coming up and reassuring me it wasn't a spun bearing! And sorry for the crazy knocking sounds that made you wanna puke. (I had the wrong file loaded on link). So I got the trans back out, and it looks like two flywheel bolts backed out. Prolly the cause of the crazy vibration on decel. So I ordered a act 6 puck and it will be here wed. just in time for the cookout.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Oh yeah mutha fucker, called that shit.

That shit was gut wrenching, Jim kept moving like it was gonna explode, lol.

Awesome, I'm not up on teh fixes, but Jim or someone else around i am sure is.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Thanks Aaron I shouldn't need any help I just have to wait till wensday when the disc gets in.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Looks good, I Love 2GB Talons.

Re: My 95 talon
 

98, I wouldn't have been so quick to think it was the 6 puck. My FW bolts backed out on a street disc... But it's your car, just make sure you locktite the fuck out of the bolts this time.

Re: My 95 talon
 

+1

Re: My 95 talon
 

i'm replacing the disc cause it's worn and some of the springs are damaged. Also I'm putting in an act 6 puck, so I relize that's not why they backed out, more than likely I over revved the motor.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Did the flywheel bolt come loose?

Re: My 95 talon
 

Good going man. I need a ride when that thing is back up.
And you need a 100% E85 tune.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Boosted- Thats how it looked when I took the disc off 1 wals 1/4 of the way out and the other was hand loose.
Aaron- should be done Thursday, so I'll be at the cookout for sure

car is now on 100% e-85. Had some terrible boost leaks. But am happy with the results

Re: My 95 talon
 

awesome numbers! congrats man. Definitely gotta be a fun ride :D

Re: My 95 talon
 

This car still has some decent boost leaks that need to be fixed. It should make upper 400's at similar boost level once he fixes them.

2g's really need a better intake and I think this is high on the list for Nick to replace.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Yummy. Congrats

Re: My 95 talon
 

Thanks. Looking to fix a few things today. start looking for an evo3 intake manifold and a wideband. Prolly change the pump and fuell filter as well.

Re: My 95 talon
 

So it's winter time so a few things are getting done.

So far I've done or bought the following-

aem fuel rail
n/t throttle body since vrspeeds aluminum pipe is terrible and the cause of some
boost leak issues
started the car on a diet

things I need before spring-
wideband
boost-a-pump
lightweight racing seats
black interior
L19 head studs/ mls headgasket
find a ported and built head or build mine
smim
build tranny or source one since so many op are parting out

I'm gonna be rocking the 3561 this season, since it's not maxed at 434awhp. I had bad boost leaks and was losing alot up top. So I figured if I add some more fuel and secure the head better. I can turn boost up to 30-32lbs and be around 500hp 450 tq.

Car should also be around 2800lbs w/ out me in it!

Re: My 95 talon
 

Just gathering parts.

So far-
AEM fuel rail
N/T throttle body
255hp wally

Still need-
Boost-a-pump
SMIM
Wideband
Speed Density

Doing what I can with my money since my wife is now talking about quiting her JOB! Daycare costs and driving expences are about te same as what she makes so...

Hopefully I complete my list within the next week or two, then time for some installing of parts and pics.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Just saw the vid from september, car is awesome! Can't wait to see this thing around come spring.

should be here next week

Re: My 95 talon
 

Hey I got that new LC1 if u are still looking it just came in last night.

Re: My 95 talon
 

You buy that set on MNSC? Otherwise I have a set of CR1's with harnesses. :D

Re: My 95 talon
 

^No-one wants your overpriced crap.

Don't know if anyone said anything, but make sure to check the seals in the NT TB.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Yeah Aaron I'll probably take it but just don't know when.

Is there a set of seats on MNSC?

Re: My 95 talon
 

No one wants your stupid fucking peanut gallery comments, jackass. My seats and harnesses are the same price as the other dude's seats. STFU

Re: My 95 talon
 

The seat I bought is a Sparco Torino 2. I might take the harnesses. There low on my list though.

Re: My 95 talon
 

Also picking up black dash, center console, door skins and misc. stuff like door sills.

Re: My 95 talon
 

So I picked up the Sparco seat tonight. Traded some stock GST rims for it. Also picked up the valve cover and racing harnesses for Goodhart. Thanks again. I only live 15 mins. from ya so if your ever wrenching and need a hand text me. Im sure I'll be down
