Project Pink-So Long

[dsmgirl06]

I bought this car as a shell in August 2010 thinking that all it needed was a motor and trans. Ran into a whole bunch of problems. Almost everything on this car has been replaced because either it was missing or broke. Its a 1990 Eagle Talon Turbo AWD 5-speed. As of this date the car has the following: (Updated 6/28/11)

16g Turbo
190 Walboro Fuel Pump
FIC 650 Injectors
V3 Full Version DSMlink
Eibach Lowering Springs
SAFC
3" GM Maf With Translator
Full 3" Apexi Exhaust
Dual Slim Fans
FMIC
Coil On Plug Set Up
Cruise Delete
Emission Delete
Boost Gauge/AF Gauge
Tubular Manifold
ACT 2600 Street Disc

No Rust! CLEAN black cloth interior. (Headliner sags, if anyone has a nice one with sunroof let me know!)

From the beginning:

It too 5 people to push the car on the trailer :P.


Took the motor out of my old black cherry car to put in my new car.




IN


Her first light of day after the motor/trans swap.

Broke. Ran into a whole bunch of issues the first day. Clutch problems. After changing the Slave Cylinder, Master Cylinder, Adjusting The Pedal and Changing The Pedal Assembly Twice it finally was fixed. (The problem was the pedal assembly.)

20g pssssshhh. you'll want bigger. You can get a Holset for less $$, but not a direct swap obviously. You thinking a 7cm 20g or a T3? I know someone possibly

[dave99gst]

I like the black swirlies myself.

[BlaineEmerson]

20g? holset? wtf you guys are killing me

[dsmgirl06]

I'm sorry, I like to keep it simple. I don't wanna have to change a lot of stuff.

If you Sponsor the Colt I'll finish it and run a BEP Turbo.

Whoever it was must be really weak. It took 5 people to push that thing onto a trailer.

That trailer is no car hauler lol

[xtreme180sx]

That trailer is no car hauler lol

3 should still be sufficient. i was able to push my gsx by myself with a broken collarbone. into my garage and over a hump.



op- i like this car other than the pink, at least its for a girl.(i think) my buddy has a ranchero in a similar color.

[doggie_tom]

We started with 3 and had to get 2 more the angle of the trailer was pretty steep

Solid car.

I've got almost an identical twin. Except it's a 91 and in auto form.

[dsmgirl06]

[doggie_tom]

I really wanted to, I was gonna do it black, but we didn't have enough time. Oh well, I'm not worried about.
