Well after several long months of saving, and collecting parts. JENNY'S TALON is up and running.

I really want to thank John and Ryan of "LE performance" (members on this site)
For coming down yesterday and making an extra trip back to John's place to get a part I was missing. Thanks guys for always willing to lend a hand. They were up till 1:30am today helping.
After a little more work, and fixing some minor things by 3:30am I took it for the First official Test Drive. Came back with out a hitch.

I drove it into work today just incase something went wrong I wanted to make sure I was the one driving so I could listen/Feel is something's out of place.

Well beside the scare I got when I was going over the 494/France bridge(they are installing steel beams into the ground but I didn't notice it. So as I was cruising over they started hammering with there big ass crane. I thought I blew the rear diff or something) Anycase I got to work with out any problems.

The only major issue I found. The tranny that was supposed to be a "10" on a scale of 1-10 is more like a 3-4.

It grinds bad until the tranny fluid warms up and then it shifts ok. But I never tried "on boost" shifting, shifting above 4k RPM, and I was shifting slower then I ever did with my GS-T. Just incase it's just a matter of low Tranny fluid. (which I'm going to check tonight)

Other then that. There's is about 4 or 5 minor things that need work. Nothing that I shouldn't be able to fix tonight.
