Just got my TSi!

Whats up guys, I just bought Matts(AwdGSX13) Talon and i am fairly new to the dsm stuff. Im really lookin forward to kickin some honda ricer ass here at BIR with it, as long as i can get all the kinks worked out. Clutch plate was in backwards and my TPS went bad right when i fixed that, but it will be worth it whem im done. Once its runnin good i am going to clean it up really nice. I should be at the cookout this year, so i will meet all you guys face to face there!

Re: Just got my TSi!

I'm loving the fact that everybody is telling him that his finacial situation is fucked now that he has a dsm and he's new to them... ha ha ha

But the sad part is that its true

Re: Just got my TSi!

welcome to the money pit we call dsm. make sure to tell your car it is a piece of shit all the time to keep it running good as soon as you dont it will brake down. Or if you put new parts on it something else will brake on the car

Re: Just got my TSi!

Man, I didn't know DSM's like abuse. lol. I have to keep telling my quest I love it, otherwise it will break. I should get a dsm so I can be mad at it and not worry.

Re: Just got my TSi!

did you try adjusting and testing the tps before you replaced it? Would you accelerate and then have your car jerk lilke the tranny was the problem? And yes, on a 10 year old car pretty much everything has to be replaced, but it is worth it!

Re: Just got my TSi!

Owner yes, proud so far, no lol jk. It's a DSM so need to fix some problems once in a while. Luckily it isn't anything crazy hard. Thanks Colin for the car and thanks Matt for the info. Both great guys.
