just got another gsx..to compenate for the stolen one
well after my 99 gsx got stolen i made up my mind that i wanted a 1g gsx again. the parts are cheaper and it is faster than the 2g's...i saw this 91 gsx in virgina...
the guy told me that the car was in great condition..i drove 6 hours from NYC to Virgina too buy that car..when i got there it was a pos...the turbo was blown..and the car was smokin (probably cause of leakin oil, very common in dsm's)..so i left and drove back to NYc..i got hoem went online and foudn a TSI 20 mins from me....i drove over there...and i foudn my new project..a 1990 talon tsi..AWD turbo..i got it for $2500...it already had a 3' cat and exhuast from EXTREME and a 2' drop....the car isn't the most pretty car..but looks doesn't matter for me now...performance does...i am savin up for my 20 g and hope i can break high 10's..who knows..

Rep Power: 0 I had a 94 mitsu non turbo. all engine. i was running 13's all day. the parts are very cheap and has to be the easyest car to work on. and then engine was very easy to work on. Good luck on the 10's.

Rep Power: 0 - those talon's are hella quick. i helped my old neighbor slap a turbo on his awd and that this gets up in 2nd gear. i raced him once and would never embarass myself again b/c he had about a 3 car lead when i shifted from 2nd to 3rd.
