which is better

What is better to buy a talon tsi or an eclipse gsx?

i personally like the eclipse's better because of the backend (and it's an import) but other than that they are bascially the same car. the talon is a little cheaper to buy and maybe a little cheaper on insurance too so you might want to consider that if you're buying one.

Besides, you can always make your Talon look like an Eclipse with a few changes. At the end you will most likely end up saving money that way.

exactly

:iagree:

Neither car is more of an 'import' but you are mainly correct.

Basicly the exact same car. A few body differences.

so its just the body nothing else really huh. Is the engine the same one in the evo viii?

same engine code and displacement, just turning the wrong way and with a different top end.

Who is jake?? i am thinking about buying a 2g with a bunnh of stuff done to it from a trusting friend so i know how the car was treated for you guys who are gonna say dont buy a modded car. I just want to know what i am getting into with the options he has on the car. Check out forum 1995 gxs good buy or not and let me know if you guys think this is a good deal. Whoever jake is let me know so i can ask him some questions.. thanks in advance

If you want to find a good car in a good condition, a Talon TSi AWD will be easier to find than an eclipse GSX unless you get REALLY lucky. Kinda wish I had AWD, so dont give up on it. Good luck.

yea i am kinda interested in knowing who the fuck Jake is too... i hear people talking about him but is he ever around? :grinno:

















wait... :uhoh: thats me. :lol2:

I found Jake!

i already bought his modded GS-T. good luck with gettin him to sell his GSX's.

jake how many cars do you have now?

i think he has.... wait lemme count ... 7 or 8 i think...and one motorcycle... a go kart... and god knows what else... oh yea, a pocket rocket too

5 :lol: maybe 6 if i decide to buy it... oh yea and they are all 2g's and all have turbos, or will when they run :icon16:

what about the 2 trucks

ok well if you really want me to go into detail:

CARS:

97 RST
97 GST
97 GST Spyder (AWD swap almost done... need to get this car off my fuckin lift, takes up to much room)
95 GSX
98 GSX (needs motor and tranny)
97 GST (if i feel like buying it - needs motor)

and i have enough parts and motors to make all these cars run, except i need a AWD tranny for the 98 GSX

TRUCKS:

00 Silverado
91 Sonoma
85 S-10 (needs motor swap, have motor, just have to get off my ass and do it)

BIKES:

03 Yamaha R6
04 KTM 525
74 CanAm Qualifier 250

OTHER TOYS:

Honda Magna V65 1100cc motorcycle motor on a go-cart (5spd+OD manual tranny baby)!!!
03 49cc gas powered pocket rocket to match the R6 (mini me)

damn how much do you make? arent you a stereo installer or somethin.

yea... plus i do auto work on the side (paint, body, motor and drivetrain) i make pretty good money for what i do! and i dont have a constant g/f :grinno: so they cant drain my money, i gotta spend it some where. i have quite a bit in a couple CD's for when i am ready to buy a house but other than that i love eclipses so thats where my money goes... that and partying!

Share the wealth. I'd be happy with just one GST

i got the hard top gst already. hahaha

Lucky. My quest for a GSX/GST still continues. Maybe I'll buy a nice pimped Civic instead.










haha...okay, time to sleep.
