Blackcrow64's Talon TSi AWD Project Progress Thread... (SOLD)

[steviek]

oh well in that case guess never then haha

[Blackcrow64]

I'm trying to get it there... I've gotta redo these lines to the oil cooler. They are just pissing me off with this leaking and blowing off crap...

[Blackcrow64]

I have several things for the car now which I will probably work on some this winter... I have a legit full black interior now which I plan on using to replace the one I dyed and painted. I also have my new wheels and had been waiting on some spacers to use so they would clear the suspension because of the offset. They should be here this next week and then I will put them on... Still need to lower this thing... Has anyone else had good/bad experiences with certain lowering springs? I'm not sure what to go with really... I'm leaning towards a set of Eibachs... I'm thinking about 2" lower.

[vanilla gorilla]

I ran the eibach sportline springs on my car paired with kyb gr2 struts. Nice handling, as well as a firm sporty ride. Not rough or bouncy. Perfect spring, IMO. With the drop of course I got a substancial amount of neg. camber. 3 and 4 degrees. So tire wear wasnt great. So keep in mind you will probably want to invest in some type of camber correction.

[Blackcrow64]

Yeah, I am definitely going to correct the camber. I can't afford to be burning through too many sets of tires with all my toys now. lol...

Crow no i didnt see it yet do you have links? I was really thinking about picking up another 2g just to mess with. I have a cousin that has a red 95 eclipse GST and i was kinda thinking about making a copy of my old car again lol. Only thing about that car is that the tranny is out.

I've fixed the exhaust since then also...

Bought the Z06 and haven't touched the DSM since... I bought some new wheels for it that I need to put on still... Might just wait until spring at this rate...

[vanilla gorilla]

I remember you were having trouble at one point with the intake manifold sealing up. What ended up being the cause of that and what did you do to correct it? (dont feel like looking back)

[ned032002]

^I'm curious too! What did your guy find out?

It ended up not being the manifold seal... It ended up being one of the fuel injector seals. The backside of it was blown out and the way it was blowing air out made it feel like it was coming from the manifold seal...
