This is my 97 Eagle Talon.
Leave a comment and rate my car, let me know what you think! Building my car is one of my favourite hobbies.. I've put a lot of work into it so far and im starting to run out of possible upgrades. I don't want to turbo the 420A, its not worth it in my opinion. I think my next upgrade will be a 4G63t engine/transmission swap. It's a lot of work and no doubt some heavy cash but its necessary to build up my talon further.

Most people tend to do the eclipse conversion on their talon, and it definitely does look awesome but im gonna keep the talon look. I like the aggressive front bumper on the 97-98 talons. I did however add the eclipse 2Gb spoiler to the car and I think it looks great on a talon.. and different.

*UPDATE* August 2008
Removed the aluminum spoiler finally and installed the new one. An Eclipse 2Gb high-rise spoiler. Looks way cleaner and compliments the car's curves and shape.

Also installed a Magnaflow exhaust system to replace the custom piping and twin-loop muffler. It has a really nice and quiet deep tone. But it gets loud when I really step on the gas.. which is ok!
