Hey I'm from the San Fernando Valley I recently got my 1995 Eagle Talon TSi AWD in a trade. I switched over from the Honda side, i had a 1997 Honda Prelude SH. My friends introduced me to the DSM world and once i saw what these cars could do i was sold. Ive always wanted a AWD turbo car so when this opportunity along i jumped on it, especially when people told me AWD talons were very sought after. I'm learning about these cars slowly so this is why I'm on here. I'm strapped for cash at the moment but im slowly getting this car to look like i want it to. I hope i learn a lot here and get some deals on parts as well.

The Old Prelude


My New Talon
The car doesn't look anything like i want it to yet, but I'm slowly getting there, i know it has potential. I'm doing a 97+ Eclipse front conversion, a good drop, and i desperately NEED new wheels, i almost didn't get the car because of them LOL

Dam you do need new wheels! But welcome to the board, make sure to read the stikys in our tech sections before posting. Hope you can make it out to one of our monday night meets in norwalk.

welcome and nice trade and please keep the talon body parts if anything get a 97 talon front bumper. If I had a talon I would keep it a talon

keep it a talon, if you want an eclipse, sell the talon and buy an eclipse. please dont ruin a talon by converting it to a common lookin 2g eclipse.



welcome btw.

welcome

and if you really want to convert the front go ahead, but talons are rare, after all it is YOUR car.

I like the 2gb talon front end a lot but that bumper is a nightmare to find, for cheap at least. Plus i like the black housing 2gb headlights a lot. Ive seen the Talon bumper going for $400, i didn't research much more after that but i rather put that $$ towards wheels or lowering springs and shocks. Any suggestions where to get that bumper?

try http://www.dsmsource.com/classifieds/index.php or I've seen it on ebay maybe once or twice they are extremely rare.

I know sam found his on this forum for a good price also you can make your talon lights black housing and they will look a lot better

Wecome. Good to see you moved away from those Hondas. I, too, traded my Honda (91 Civic Si) for my prized 1G. Its funny, we both traded our Hondas for blue DSMs lol.

Hope you enjoy your newfound power. Trust me, your Talon would eat your old H22 alive

I also agree, new rims, keep Talon body.

On one last note, enjoy the forums and hope to see you at the Monday meets.

Yeah this talon would eat the h22 alive despite having the t25 turbo. I searched for the 2gb talon bumper no luck, I got a SUPER deal on a brand new OEM style 2gb eclipse bumper and OEM style 2gb eclipse headlights all for $157 I can't turn that down plus I had to tear up my 2ga talong bumper to put my FMIC on. Is that a good price for the front end???

the front bumper at certifit goes for like 55 or 45 i think but that's in san diego so you waste gas, and 2gb headlights usually range anywhere from 60-100 bucks so if you're getting both new its not a bad deal
