Talon TSI AWD with upgrades FS
 
1995 Eagle Talon TSI AWD
Car has 230,000km on it, Motor was replaced a few months ago with only 60k on it and the automatic transmission was also rebuilt at the time with a shift kit.

Replacement motor is a 6 bolt 4G63T out of a Lancer Evo.
Large Front mount intercooler
Eclipse Front end conversion
Halo projector lights
3" turbo back exhaust including 3" High flow catalytic converter.
Power slot brake rotors front and back with KVR high performance pads.
18" ADR 10 spoke rims (Gold) with 50% left of performance tires.
Tien Lower Springs (About 2" drop)
CD/DVD/MP3 player, Digital Cap, wiring, component rear speakers, trunk has custom box built into spare tire well for 3 10" subs (subs/Amp not included)
Leather seats.
Tinted Windows (Dark)
Front strut bar

Lots of new parts, including motor, rebuilt transmission, windshield, front bearings, wideband O2 sensor, starter.

Bad stuff:
-Strut bat rubs hood when going over bumps and makes a squeaking noise.
-Exhaust is so big when under load it rattles against the car (will fix soon if i have time)
-Exhaust is LOUD (4" tip)
-AWD grabs the road and ruins the fun of doing burnouts... but it WILL get sideways if you try. ;)
Stock shocks are a little tired, probably due to the lower springs... car rides a bit on the bouncy side.

Selling because my kid/baby seat/Dog don't fit in the back seat as easily as they did when they were smaller.

Asking $5000 e-tested, as-is.
Need to fix horn for safety, that is all.
Can meet for viewing anywhere in the area.

picccccs?

catatonik 12-07-2008 11:05 AM

Working on it. I live in an apartment, so its hard to wash the car, and get a good pic of it.

I'm more or less looking a family car. So I am open to trades. I have my eyes on a grand prix gtp, so If i can get $3,800 before that car is gone sold, I'd be satisfied. I'm looking to trade for sometihng similar to that or like a subaru impreza or legacy.

I also fixed the squeak caused by the strut bar rubbing on the hood.

ZX3_2NV 12-16-2008 11:13 AM

What is wrong with the horn? Is it just wiring or the actual Sterring Wheel Im pretty interested But I would be driving this all year long so Do you have a stock set or rims with tires and stock suspesion or just the lowered springs?

Looks just like one my friend is selling

catatonik 12-17-2008 07:37 AM

I have no other rims. Just the 18" with summer tires which honestly are quite scary on snowy days. You can pick up a set of steel rims and winters pretty cheap at crappy tire.

The horn, I have no idea what's wrong I havent even looked at it. Could be a fuse for all I know.

His looks pretty nice. Actually nicer, but isn't he asking something ridiculous like $10,000?

Shadow204 12-17-2008 08:19 AM

No he's asking $3,500. Sorry if it seems like I'm thread jacking.

catatonik 12-17-2008 09:07 AM

You pretty much are, but its all good. I have enough people interested. I dont think either of us will have any issues selling.

ZX3_2NV 12-18-2008 12:49 PM

he is hijacking your thread for no reason the car he speaks of is in Winnipeg. Who did the motor swap? and what is your higest offer so far?

ohh yaa and any pics from the rear?

catatonik 12-18-2008 12:54 PM

I did the swap myself at work (I build airplanes) and I got the motor from ******** in Toronto. A friend at MR. Transmission did the tranny rebuilt for $900. The tranny is beautiful, but the valve onthe torque converter sticks, so when the car sits, the torque converter drains, and when you restart it, you have to wait for the TC to prime before it will go into gear. Replaceing the valve would have cost another grand. So i told him as long as it dosent affect reliability dont worry.

Right now I am in negotiations for a straight trade for another car.

ZX3_2NV 12-18-2008 01:41 PM

and what kind of car is that Im very warey of trades but I would still like to see a pic of the rear money talk and I got cash

I'll post some more pics today.

Its for the contour SVT on the domestic section. I'm a little hesitant myself. But it fits what I need. Family is just too big for a sports coupe. Plus I have 2 RX7s to play with in the summer.

And these are the brakes.

can you email me asap in regards to this car I will possibly pick up this weekend. Antoniodecruz@hotmail.com

catatonik 12-22-2008 08:24 AM

A lot of talkers, but no-one's actually came to SEE the car yet.

The strut bar squeak has been fixed. Car drives nice. Even with summer tires I havent been stuck in this 3ft deep snow yet. Its a lot of car for the money.

ZX3_2NV 12-22-2008 04:22 PM

how about the trade? did plans not go through I'll be pretty busy for the next few weeks If its still available in the new year would you be able to come down to Toronto or Woodbridge so I can get a Mechanic to look at it I would prefer Marco Magnus look over the car before anything.

catatonik 12-22-2008 07:04 PM

Trade is still pending due to weather.

I was hoping to have something a little roomier before the new year, so I could go visit family in ottawa with my son. However, if it's still around in january, we can talk about me coming up there. If no one takes it soon, I might just keep it till spring.

catatonik 12-30-2008 07:58 PM

Car only needs horn for safety now. And possibly O2 sensor for e-test.

Last price drop... $3200 FIRM

ZX3_2NV 12-31-2008 12:22 PM

I like that price we shall talk more serious in a week or so but I am interested but by all means 1st come 1st serve

catatonik 01-05-2009 07:59 AM

Same story. A lot of tire kickers. No serious buyers. This is a fun car for a good price!

Sorry guys, but if you just call me asking for a test drive, and dont seem serious, I'm NOT letting you drive my car!

ZX3_2NV 01-12-2009 03:42 PM

pmd

ZX3_2NV 01-14-2009 10:19 AM

Hey Catatonik Clear up some of ur pm's it seems to be full

Im not really into the whole system set up anymore but what ever parts you have kicking around will be great if it was included. Would putting a remote starter and starting the car before I put it in gear fix the tranny problem?

catatonik 01-14-2009 10:35 AM

Cleared. My box was full of messages from people making bogus offers for my car.

"I'll give you an Ipod and $1200 for your talon cert + e-tested"
LMAO!

ZX3_2NV 01-14-2009 11:05 AM

Thats what you get with free advertising u always get cheap @sses trying loball u.

catatonik 01-14-2009 11:20 AM

Oh. My bad. It was an IPhone, not an ipod.

Sorry, I cant DRIVE an Iphone.

fousse69 01-14-2009 01:03 PM

hahah nice....

catatonik 01-16-2009 09:15 AM

Willing to take offers for car without rims.
P.M. Me your offers. I need a family car pronto! I cant do the back seat baby thing anymore.

ZX3_2NV 01-16-2009 09:45 AM

hopefuly everything goes well this afternoon and u won't have to deal with the baby seat anymore

Richieman 01-17-2009 11:05 PM

Do you still have it?? What's your number?? Thank you

ZX3_2NV 01-26-2009 01:08 PM

I made a meeting with him and he never showed. Ohh well I bought something else now.

catatonik 01-26-2009 02:09 PM

Sorry. Car sold a while ago.

ZX3 - I never showed, because I hadn't realized the i had two people looking at it on here that wanted to see it on the same day, and the other guy canceled... I assumed they were the same person. Sorry, I explained that to you, and you were rude about it. Your loss.

Richieman 01-26-2009 02:39 PM

ZX3_2NV 02-19-2009 01:03 PM
