Ok, I want to know the **** points of these cars. Some idiot of mine wants his to drop into the 10's. I aint a dragger but wouldn't he need a hefty turbo system, a huge amount of fuel and a rather lot of N20 dumbing into his engine. Plus this Talon still has the stock transmission which is **** along with stock heads which again are ****. It is a 93 as well. I want to know if this **** is feasable with out a loss of tansmission or engine. Cause if it isn't I want him to do it blow his engine or tansmission cause he is one hell of a mouthy bastard and a general hater of the Rotary. And the other night I kicked his *** on a cornering match and he is still pissing me off!!!!!!!!!

if he's got a 4wd car, it might be possible

but nothing is possible in a talon without grenading a tranny (or center diff)

He will need about 500RWHP. And alot of cash.

It kills me. 10sec. 1/4 is very very fast for any street car, and most people have no idea how much it takes to get this.

crank walk isnt caused by hp. Its a factory flaw, and there is NO way to fix it, much less prevent it.

acutally the 2nd gens 95-98 only cranked walked and they had the weakest of the transmissions... and yes you can elimate the crankwalk by rebuilding the motor and MATCHINg up the correct bearings which you gotta measure and mic yourself ive been reading up on DSM's lately . The 1st gens had a very strong motor some people get about 350 fourwhp which is a ******* lot. the 1st gens really didnt have problems with trannys it was ******* idiots who drove them. rev it to 6k and drop it.... ya smart fuggin idea when you got 4wheels to the ground that are used as drive wheels. Besides there just like RX7's there are lots of myths about them which almost none of them are true.... if you just treat the car like it was designed to just like the rx7 it will last you as long as any other car.

its where the crank vibrates and loose harmonic balance due to incorrect bearing sizing

Hey in Fast and Furious that Maxima could run 9's! Of course he needed to fix his fuel map and NOS timing. Volkswagens and Mitsubishi's are known for crappy transmissions, he would need a dog box but he sounds like an idiot so who cares?

550 cc injectors
AFC
Stock mount mkiv supra ic

removed balance shafts

"I can break all 4 tires loose... IN SECOND GEAR!!!(when the boost hits)"

he did all this for less than 2k

This guy just is really stupid he was boasting about being able to go 100 or something in that piece of ****, Oh ******* I will show you 100 in an FC you motherF*!@*@!!! oF COURSE I can't since my car is on the down low untill I get my exaust in. Anyway I told him about the dog box cause I thought the same thing along with the walking issue. Of course he didn't know about either of them so I was like WTF????!!!! This guy is also running a heffty turbo setup with stock injectors, no turbo timer and no Fuel comp. I just want to race him so I can see his car go boooommm!!!
