both my brothers had turbo AWD talon/lasers. they had 5 engines between the 2 cars | I owned a Talon for *5* days ... seemed like a good idea at the time, power, turbo, AWD ... never again.

Mod of the day:
-Split my new temporary tranny to make sure things were okay
-Pulled bearing and speedo ring gear off the stock diff to put onto new diff
-Acid cleaned/hot pressure washed the tranny case. Wondering if I should paint it?

I'll most likely leave it since I'm sure I'll be pulling it out again over winter.
Unbolted exhaust off the talon and dropped the transfer case so I could find out which tranny I need to buy to replace the busted up one in the talon.......Yes, I have 2 cars with busted trannies, the only reliable one now is the good ol honda slushbox automatic in the civic

Took my fenders off today to do a little trimming to the stock fenders to take full advantage of the flares.
I'm still too scared to cut the rears, so for now i've rolled them even further than before.

Did a semi-full clean up of my car, it was way overdue. I can't wait to get my lips back from the bodyshop, touch up my stone chips, and give the whole car a 3 stage treatment.
