Twacks's Baby = 92 Talon

Going over all of my threads I realized that I didnt have a project thread dedicated to my 92. I have a few threads here and there showing whats going on with it, but nothing thats been updated and openeded.








I got my 92 back when I started college and had no clue what it was. I just knew I wanted something turbo. So I went to wisconsin to pick it up. She was all stock and an AUTO.





Just like every other DSM it started to get modded. I bought an ebay 16g and supporting mods and miraculously it lasted a whole year of being beaten on!



Then like all ebay turbos it started to fall apart. So i upgraded to a 50trim, and the mods to support that.


Then while I live in winona, we had some crazy floods and the national guard wouldnt let me into my dsm for 7 days. she sat in standing the whole time. But I didnt want to give up on the car. I pulled out the interior and installed new carpet, seats, headliner, panels, etc etc. and all the gaskets in the engine.

Then I played around with nitrous for a little while. It was fun but i sold it for a better toy. I also switched over to e85 at this time.


Then after 2 auto trannies died on me, it was time to swap over to a manual, I really couldnt afford the 3000 for a good auto tranny.

So far i havnt driven it on the new manual setup. It still has a few bugs to work out. One major problem is the used RPS pressure plate that came with the manual swap parts is UNGODLY stiff. ive never felt a dsm clutch nearly this stiff and ive felt many. so i might have to get a new clutch setup before i take it out.
