Finally Got It Running
 
Well alot of people on here dont know me but i do know a few. Im 16 and getting money for to mod the talon wasnt easy so please dont hate if its not perfect i know it isnt but its not really finished yet. Thanks to a good buddy of mine Mario(the06blue) for helping me with some of the work. And the crazy ride we took with this thing.

Time to get the downpipe, and get it tuned. Looks good hopefully you can finish it up and take some nice pics of it all completed.

jc8889 10-04-2006 08:51 PM

You need to get it out of the bushes, looks like its a pain to work on it.

Looks like you are off to a good start. Be careful when you start driving. Don't let anyone talk you into driving like a ****, and don't let yourself drive like one either!

Thanks man. And i dont drive like a maniac. I hate beating on the car. I got more stuff to come..

sleeperstyle 10-07-2006 06:12 PM

for a 16 year old with no liscence yet- well i think it might be safe to say you have the fastest/ nicest (in my eyes at least) car at your jr. high or high school, whatever grade you are in now:mrgreen:. at 16 i had a 89 jetta, 8 valve CARAT edition:rotfl:. not a fuking 13 or 12 second car.

Drftpretty 10-07-2006 06:43 PM

Damn, that interior rearr is stripped huh?

How do you not like the two tone? Its sets it off from other cars and it looks good.

Well if my friend doesn't buy it, im going to keep it. If i do sell im going to try and do another project. Possibly a hatch or a 240 possibly an awd dsm. If i keep it i got alot coming for it.

dstarmotuner 10-20-2006 11:59 PM

Well the deal with mario fell through so im going with some nice coilovers and a new paintjob soon enough. Any more ideas let me know.

I dont think it looks good. I think it looks stupid. I think white with the black 2 tone is probably the better out of all the other colors they had... ehh maybe red too, but anyways, it screws up little things.
But you want some of the many reasons i dont like it? Ok..
I always wanted a white car with gold wheels and the gold wheels on the talon wouldnt look as good bc of the black top. Black wheels would go better and i dont want black wheels. Also I wanted to get a 2gb turbo spoiler and if I got that I have to obviously get the hatch repainted bc where the talon spoiler sat the paint has chipped away, and I have to pay extra bc Id have to get it repainted 2 different colors... and if I just got it painted white Id have to get the whole roof repainted too bc a full white hatch would look retarded. I'm sorry I just like a full 1-color car.
To me... this:

looks better than this:

YES... lol

TalonTsi97 10-21-2006 03:51 PM

Yea but i see these ALL day: http://images.autotrader.com/images/..._A.562x421.jpg
And Rarely ever see 2g talons or two tone cars that actually look good and arent riced.

I understand your point with the wheels, but its one of those cars that you buy it for that look, i wouldnt of started with my white one if i wanted gold wheels. (i still think gold wheels would look alright on the two tone anyway). Its all in what you like, i like having things differant from the next guy/girl. :)

Yeah, I know they look alright, but i dont want to spend all that money on wheels just for them to look alright... i would want them to look good, like they would on an all white eclipse. But I didnt buy my talon bc it was white. That just happened to be the color of the one with the best deal. I almost got a green one actually... glad I didnt.

I dont see that many white gst/gsx's anyway though.. No where near as many white as there are red and black. But then again I dont see that many white talons either. idk, white was #2 color choice for the talon, and black was my #1, thats all i was saying... But silver woulda been my #1 for an eclipse...then white #2.
