I might just have to get goat blowers 3575. But then I'd need a new 02 housing, change my IC pipe, intake, etc.


I will do some investigating. I'm getting a -4 inline with an 1/8npt fitting for an oil pressure gauge. I will also just make a much larger drain with like copper pipe or something.

Just buy Steves turbo. It's a helluva deal imo. Screw those holset junk turbos.

holset turbos aren't junk don't be ignorant just because you don't know.

[turbotalon1g]

I don't get the 0o thing, I don't speak emo.

Anywho, whats the new plan for the talon. How are you breaking transmissions?

[FattyBoomBatty]

lol. I saw a pretty sweet holset on a moving truck today.

Hold on, let me get your call center script out for you "Mike from Ohio".

Kevin, post some pics up when you get it done!

The car runs and drives. I put a shitty tranny in so I could drive it.

Holset works fine, good spooling and nice size turbo, it just is having all these dumb problems. Which makes me wish I never jumped on that bandwagon. lol.


I still might just sell this car. If so Ill just get a Shep stg 1. FOR SALE. Or Shep 4 and a twin disk. KEEP!

[Swifty1638]

I want twin disc..lol

Keep the car you fuck, You dont owe anything on it and it is what you have always wanted in a 1g. Paint it black so your happy 100% with it. I know you to well and if you sell it your going to end up buying another 1g within a year of selling that one. Its been like that since right after high school.

[Constant_Project21]

Gotta agree with mike, I think you will regret selling it. Just continue doing what you're doing, make the car the way you want it, and enjoy it. 1g's aren't getting any younger, and there aren't too many like yours.

He's about as indecisive about keeping his car as you are about keeping your car a 2.0 or 2.3 . BTW, I met this dori dori dude that said your car is way cool. Brandon from New Brighton is his name.

Again, I don't understand. DOn't you answer phones for a living I don't.

Kevin, your 1G is awesome, from what mike says it sounds like to be perfect for you, you would have it in black, so make the car how you want it and keep it.
I'm not sure what your power goals are either, but that fresh motor has got to be nice.
I'm sure you could sell that holset pretty quickly since its pretty popular now.

I do live in new brighton, I think I know who your talking about. Does this brandon guy drive a red 240sx with a sr20 in it?

[GsXtUrBo98]

Paint it black and keep it! Now that your getting rid of the other project that you were gonna replace your talon with theres no point on selling it. And we can all tell your still hooked on it when your looking to increase your mods!

You wouldn't understand and no, I do not answer phones for a living.

Kevin, nice car. Keep it.
Mike, yep, that's the guy. Pretty cool kid.

I like 1gs. I just want a mint/perfect one. and mine isn't good enough.

I'm at the point in my life where I think cars should pause, or be on the back burner. Selling my Talon would be a chunk of a downpayment, but thats no fun

An v8 swapped 240 done right would still be neat. but im not into spending money anymore.

Ahhh wtf. I can't make up my mind. New turbo, tranny, build the engine and fuel system, paint the car.. Expensive hobby.

We'll see.

Dude, that makes me wanna kick you in the nuts.

Come look at mine, and see how far yours has come. You seriously have one of the nicest 1g's in the state of MN.

[turbotalon1g]

^truf, either you are hiding a lot of shit, or you are being a douche.

[Constant_Project21]

Yea, good luck finding a "perfect" 17 year old car.

[sleepydsm]

I have seen one. And I almost cried because I couldn't get it.

It was local. I saw it at "Owner 2 Owner" car mart in white bear lake about 3 or 4 years ago.

Smurf blue 92 AWD Talon. Black leather, sunroof. STOCK MINT FLAWLESS 18,000miles and the window sticker on it.

It was $7,000 at the time. I would have killed for it.

And my car seriously isn't "NICE" enough for me. I just have high standards. I don't want a show car, I just want something that hasnt been shat on, f-ed with, neglected. Blah. There are nicer cars in MN.
