93 talon tsi

[amicheze]

the time has come to get something new. ive had my fun with speed.. now its time to get something a little more practical.

'93 eagle talon tsi - awd turbo.
95,xxx miles.

mods:
sls boost controller (currently running 10psi)
intake
2.5" cat back exhaust
autometer boost guage
american racing 17" wheels

the good:
-new battery
-new o2 sensor
-new water pump
-newer plug wires
-runs great
-starts up every time in the winter
-no extensive mods.. so still pretty reliable
-paint is in decent shape.. no major rust spots
-interior is pretty clean too.
-tint on hatch, back windows, and drivers window.

the bad:
-tranny isnt in the best condition. still works fine for a DD, but if youre going to be doing any serious racing, itd probably need to be replaced.
-wheels have seen better days.
-idle speed sensor is bad. not a major problem, but kind of annoying hearing it rev up slightly sitting at a light.
-headliner is sagged

asking 3200 obo. bought it from kevin @ sls in june of last year for 4k.

care to sell the mbc seperately?

[amicheze]

nah.. not really. a brand new one is only 45 bucks at sls. their new ones are a lot nicer than the older ones they had.

[24valvenotak]

grenade the tranny and sell it to me for 2

[amicheze]

..or you could buy it for 3200 and grenade it yourself

[24valvenotak]

would make more sense for me to tow it home for 2:)

nope. i used it in my room to play halo2 on a couple times just to screw around.. but other than that i havent really used it. i especially didnt wanna put it in my car with everyone getting their stuff stolen lately.

[amicheze]

one last bump before it goes in the paper. someone must want a dsm for the summer...

[93HondaPrelude]

how bad is the transmission?? like to fix it what u think it would cost?

[amicheze]

its really not that bad. for a DD it works just fine. all the gears shift relatively smoothly. i just wouldnt trust it running a bunch of times in sabin or anything. when its cold, second gear needs a little extra strength to get into, but once its warmed up its no problem at all. a stock tranny plus labor is what.. between 700 and 900 bucks?

[torbs]

stock tranny itself is 600 (jdm gvr4) from sls

[amicheze]

BUMP

i need this thing gone. depending on the current loan situation, i might be able to go as low as $3000. i dont really want to lose a thousand dollars after only one year, 6 thousand miles, and a few fixed problems though.

[amicheze]

come on guys, help a brotha out. for only $3000, you can have your very own talon! once winter comes, youll be kicking yourself if you dont have awd..

i need this car gone so i can buy that RS before someone else does!

[youngin2nr]

I am looking at torbs sol if i am not interested in that ill call ya alright

[amicheze]

Sold!

[ExTREME]

I figured out how to drive the bitch too! I didnt even kill it all the way home!! However, it is hard to do a heel-toe on a hill with no pedal..oh yeah and btw.. wheres the F'n screen!! like omg omg!! lol. It's titties car man. Just waiting for a GXL RX7 to come to town. I know hes runnin at 5psi. God dude, you don tknow how much i needed this car.
Thanks man. I heart you. Hope to see ya around.

[ExTREME]

you also forgot your garage door clicker, and a magnet of a van.

[btleier]

haha... that post is hilarious. I think I figured out most of it?
