93 talon tsi

[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

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!

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

Sorry I was polluted.

Should I put some Lucas oil in it with some Slick50 next oil change? I'm new to turbo's and just need to know.

I got some pillar guages, wires, and hatch struts for it on the way from Chicago thanks to Napa Auto Parts.

Will 8mm wires be good in this 2.0??

Avoid any oil/additives that have teflon in them. This is good advice for any application, turbo or not.

NGK plugs (BPR6ES) and wires are probably the best for that motor IMO.
