I had the 1996 Eagle Talon TSI White gave it to my 16 year old niece in May 2002 for her birthday only had 42, 000 miles sadly she crashed it a few months later 😢 so when I was ready to get rid of my 2002 Firebird 75,000 miles in 2015 I had a much better experience because the buyer was looking for a Firebird & I knew he would love it & care for it as I did 😍
Thanks for showing this Craig. I thought I was the unlucky one when it came to finding people to do decent work on my vehicles. Always thought I was not very good at working on vehicles.Until I had someone else work on my vehicle. Now lately i've just been doing it myself. Thanks for the video
Had a 91 GSX it was a fun car. I ended up racing someone and broke my harmonic balancer in half and took to Dealer and they said he have never seen one of those break before. They replaced it under warranty. after warranty expired it loved to burn about 1 quart of oil every 500 miles. It was fun while it lasted . That was like over 25 years ago lol.
It was completely stock? They definitely didn't have Honda/Toyota quality. Curious if they could've been made to be reliable with a proper engine rebuild.
Craig, I owned a 1990 Mitsubishi Eclipse and I was having check engine light issues and at the time, my mechanic was pulling codes, replacing parts and the light would come back on again. After a bit of online research, it ended up that some of the capacitors inside the ECM had burst and leaked onto the PCB board. I had to send it out to have it repaired and it solved all of my issues. Check the ECM out as the issue. 👍
Once the Talon was painted, it became a nice looking car ready for the scrap pile. At least when you scrap it, the parts people don't have to try to save the bad interior!
I have owned 40 of these and want one last one so I can. Do a final build on it. Most was 650 hp but looking to build 1000hp for final. Love these. But DSM stands for daily service mantaince lol.
I had the mitsu version back in the day. Still my fav car. But NO ONE could make it run. I eventually had to sell it. It just wouldn't run. Spent so much money trying to fix it and no one could
Wouldn't the falling on its face when getting off the gas be caused by the recirculation valve being vented to atmosphere on a mass airflow car? What is the air fuel ratio when that happens (extremely rich)? Change it from a atmosphere vent to piped back behind the mass airflow sensor and see what it does. (It seems like this is still the case since you mentioned it at the end of the video which should be closer to real time.)
Whoever buys your high mileage cars are CRAZY. HOWEVER your videos are fun to watch. They should put your picture in the dictionary by used car salesman.
Hey Craig you should try out quick stop tire shop in plaistow. I have them Align my lifted vehicles and it’s always perfect. Much better than town fair and Sullivan
They called that shifter the Horse Cock shifter,Lol!! Also, if you go with a 16" tire, But with a 91v sidewall instead of the stock 87v, the 91v will make the tire look/appear lower profile, also it's stiffer, & will handle better, just a suggestion!! Nitto Neogens are good/cool looking examples!!
Yes Town Fair Tire is a joke I use the Russian guy across the highway from the Early Bird Restaurant he is treated me very well over the years I probably got 10 sets of tires from that guy and he has the state of the art alignment machine in New Hampshire when they tell you he is the best he truly is and how about you but I like Yokohama tires it's a soft rubber compound it really grips and I've had excellent luck with those tires
Yeah, that’s the way to do it because their deals on tires are pretty much unbeatable but the people who’s doing the alignments are 18-year-old kids who don’t really know what they’re doing. They’re just following a piece of paper.
I LOVE YOU, Craig. You enjoy working harder than the next guy to get what the next guy never gets- his dreams in the flesh! You are "larger than Life", and all your efforts have produced a marvelous surprise for you. I want to see your face when you meet the surprise- the reaction to all of your actions put together. You are the movie sequel I want to watch, yeah, I'm that far ahead of you. You're a star. please note when you are a star to sue Barrett-Jackson for not being LIVE since August 8, 2015. Watch it, and then watch the very next auction in Vegas, September 2015. Barrett-Jackson has not televised every bid since I Agent Smith'd the announcer when the bid on the last Michigan bodied 427 Corvette is at $185,000- making him say " a two hundred thousand dollar bid has been made". when no such bid was made at the auction- it was made in my head and accidentally got teleported into the head of the announcer some 2,000 miles away. I TWEETED an immediate apology to Barrett-Jackson to say I'm sorry, it won't happen again, because I didn't know it could happen until it did happen. I. was met 10 days later by Pope Francis's psychic masked swordsman bringing me my death like they brought to Bruce Lee. I survived the attack that killed Bruce Lee, because my mind is from and conscious of another TIME: 10,000,000,002,024. TIME TUNES THE BODY IMMORTAL. The body you are in duplicates itself regularly because you are breathing 10 trillion year old air, that has engines in it that manufacture your thoughts and dreams, and these engines designed by minds in time: 10,000,000,002,024 you aren't measuring to be there, manufacture the forms we dream of ourselves as living a.i., the how of immortality. Becoming conscious inside the forms our dreams manufacture of us, is the how of conscious eternity, and that fact is shown on TV in a few episodes of ONE STEP BEYOND, like "The Navigator" and "The Explorer", and the one about the prisoner executed, and for over 30 years has been identified as being someone else, somewhere else, so ETERNITY IS SHOWN IN ONE STEP BEYOND EPISODES, where the next level of excitement begins. Bring me an object a friend left you after they died, and I will tell you conversations you had with them- it's called psychometry. When I hold another's personal object I get pictures in my mind like I was watching a movie and someone put it on pause in front of my eyes. Send me a worthless old relic you've known awhile, a discarded button etc., and I will tell you your own secrets. Your minds rolodex flips through 4 digit air, and mine flips through 14 digit air. How many digits are there? Have you decided, or have you let THE MATRIX decide for you? Mm?
This is nothing compared to some of the DSM's I've saved. The reason it's zip tied is because most coilovers don't have the bracket for you to bolt them back on like the stock style struts do, so it leaves you with little options if you're in a pinch.
I started watching your channel because I thought the content was great. But lately it seems like your channel is all over the place and you’re just chasing different ideas to get views. People like to watch genuine content not changing every other video tryi g new ideas!
Why on Earth do you allow hacks to work for you? Is it because they work cheap? Remember... Cheap is expensive. @6:30... One thing I've always hated about the Talon... The wheels are directional but all 4 are the same. They point forward on one side of the car and backwards on the other side.
Sorry I’m late watching, but you get screwed over more than anyone I know and being a dealer should be hard to get over on you. Love watching channel. One thing why do you have lots of small cars? You look like a hot rod kind of guy stay safe hope you come south soon 👍
I have a black Talon TSI and Conquest TSI since new. Please try to slow down and be more positive. Constantly complaining is so depressing. Thank you. Best of luck
I've been vocal about the type of projects that you take on. I should start to be more "constructive" on what I say. I like projects. I get the fact that you want to have cars from you childhood. But I fear that one day you may buy a Volkswagen Thing to restore. That's a guaranteed way to lose all your viewers. How many people do you think want to see you struggle with your Talon? Maybe 10% of your viewers. Your projects should be about cars that 90% of your viewers would like to see done. Go buy a decent Pontiac LeMans and make it a GTO Tribute Car by adding some decals, scoops and bumper, etc. People would think that project would be cool. I'm a car guy born in the early 50s. I watch our videos all the time - even when you wine for 15 minutes non-stop (which is every video since the beginning of last summer) and I didn't care. How's that front line looking? It should only have white, silver and gray cars. Maybe one black one and one red one. Don't put bright colors out there and don't put black ones that have to be washed every day. That front line is your money-maker. Use it well.
Your friend is a butcher!...no where near a perfectionist.....Q; Why dont you pressure wash the underside of the vehicle first before you start in with a recoating?
Why would you change the color? I own a 91 Turbo AWD in that great silver/purple and black combination. The best combination. You changed it to red. A great rare color to everyday trash color.
He's making these vids for advertising to help with selling it. The paint job ruined any "REAL" value it might have had. BUT EVEN THEN 15K IS A JOKE!! PROBABLY NEEDS ENGINE WORK AFTER HIS FRIEND FUCKED IT UP. $2500 CAR ALL DAY ANYWHERE.
Doesn’t run right for 5 yrs and u want 15,000 for it when u sell it. Craig it’s a 3500 car 🚗 . If u were to buy that same car from me what would u pay? I know your in the car game and u look for suckers too buy that stuff I get it.
That brake line is zip tied to the shock because you bought cheap crappy shocks/coilovers without the correct mounting brackets. Megans are s%&t pieces.
I had the 1996 Eagle Talon TSI White gave it to my 16 year old niece in May 2002 for her birthday only had 42, 000 miles sadly she crashed it a few months later 😢 so when I was ready to get rid of my 2002 Firebird 75,000 miles in 2015 I had a much better experience because the buyer was looking for a Firebird & I knew he would love it & care for it as I did 😍
I live in New Hampshire and that is typical kind of work you get from the mechanics in this state they are all hacks.
Huge car guy here ! From Baltimore MD , Adam all together absolutely blew that paint job out the water !!
Haha that roof panel coming down use to drive me crazy, when i had mine! It eventually came down one day and i tore it out 🤣
Those are the cars that make me smile when I see them. Flash back.
Thanks for showing this Craig. I thought I was the unlucky one when it came to finding people to do decent work on my vehicles. Always thought I was not very good at working on vehicles.Until I had someone else work on my vehicle. Now lately i've just been doing it myself. Thanks for the video
Old videos, thanks for keeping us entertained while you move.
Adam did an amazing job.
DSM's were great cars. Affordable, fun to drive, and great platforms for modifying. I miss mine!
Adam All Together.. and then there's
Craig Halfway Put Together 😂 jkjk
Had a 91 GSX it was a fun car. I ended up racing someone and broke my harmonic balancer in half and took to Dealer and they said he have never seen one of those break before.

It was completely stock?
They definitely didn't have Honda/Toyota quality. Curious if they could've been made to be reliable with a proper engine rebuild.
Diamond star motors did a great job on those motors...I always wanted one of those, I had to settle for driving my buddies as I used to be a brokass
Nice job Adam AT.. Very nice.
Not sure if Craig is trolling us. He hypes up the guy ,then proceeds to show $hit work
Lol my thoughts exactly. Comment farming .. lol it works tho here we are talking about it
Whing Wheels for the win
Figured that as well. You don't ever let a body shop to any mechanical work.
Yeah I think sometimes his brain gets stuck in used car salesman mode. Everything is amazing, the best, the greatest.
Craig once used a self-tapping screw, which he spray painted blue, to attach the trim piece of a Bentley Continental...
thanks Craig
Craig, I owned a 1990 Mitsubishi Eclipse and I was having check engine light issues and at the time, my mechanic was pulling codes, replacing parts and the light would come back on again.

Wow this is at least one of the Smartest comments on here, Something that will actually help someone. 🇺🇸👍
Used to be on my list of coolest cars when it came out!
GDAY FROM SYDNEY AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺
Once the Talon was painted, it became a nice looking car ready for the scrap pile. At least when you scrap it, the parts people don't have to try to save the bad interior!
Top quality work as always
I have owned 40 of these and want one last one so I can. Do a final build on it. Most was 650 hp but looking to build 1000hp for final. Love these. But DSM stands for daily service mantaince lol.
Those cars were turds new. They still are!
Its always curious to me what some people like. Some actually like bugs, some station wagons & some rat rods. I guess there's something for everyone.
I had the mitsu version back in the day. Still my fav car. But NO ONE could make it run. I eventually had to sell it. It just wouldn't run. Spent so much money trying to fix it and no one could
Glad you came back with a better attitude don’t nobody wanna see depression sht
Your buddy is a hack and he scammed you what a jerk
Love this car!

Hey Craig Richmond Auto Auction having a Classic Car sale May 31st
Skibidi toilet, you goone master
This guy comes over as RUclipss number one bodger!
They called that shifter the Horse Cock shifter,Lol!! Also, if you go with a 16" tire, But with a 91v sidewall instead of the stock 87v, the 91v will make the tire look/appear lower profile, also it's stiffer, & will handle better, just a suggestion!! Nitto Neogens are good/cool looking examples!!
Yes Town Fair Tire is a joke I use the Russian guy across the highway from the Early Bird Restaurant he is treated me very well over the years I probably got 10 sets of tires from that guy and he has the state of the art alignment machine in New Hampshire when they tell you he is the best he truly is and how about you but I like Yokohama tires it's a soft rubber compound it really grips and I've had excellent luck with those tires
You have a PhD in the car business ❤️
Can if have your parts car when your done, need quarter panel for my gs-t
That’s why you sort the car mechanically first and make sure it drives good before dumping thousands on body work and restoration!!!
Now you can say you’ve finished TWO of your 90’s cars
Yup! All while running a business, taking care of a large family, and running a successful YT channel.
Makes your life look pretty mundane, huh? 😂
Looks like the guy you had do engine out was incompetent or lazy.
It was AN alternator cable
I buy tires from town fair, but go to my Indy shop for an alignment.
Yeah, that’s the way to do it because their deals on tires are pretty much unbeatable but the people who’s doing the alignments are 18-year-old kids who don’t really know what they’re doing. They’re just following a piece of paper.
Craig was good looking two years ago

Why does the title show all-wheel-drive? This is not an all-wheel-drive. This is a TSI front wheel drive only
Craig! You don’t wear your seatbelt?!
The Eagle looks good. This "friend" with the zip ties, He's the reason you're moving? I have a neighbor like that. We all understand.
😂
I enjoy your content, but this thing is so hacked and so many corners cut I’d have a hard time selling it to anyone.
This is nothing compared to some of the DSM's I've saved. The reason it's zip tied is because most coilovers don't have the bracket for you to bolt them back on like the stock style struts do, so it leaves you with little options if you're in a pinch.

He needs more boat videos, those are the best
Fix all the ragey cars make videos make you money back we good go to Florida
Why on Earth do you allow hacks to work for you? Is it because they work cheap? Remember... Cheap is expensive. @6:30... One thing I've always hated about the Talon... The wheels are directional but all 4 are the same. They point forward on one side of the car and backwards on the other side.
How this guy makes money is beyond me. He waste money like crazy 😂
It's because you're a Normie. Normies like to express their opinions without any knowledge.
Full restoration, bro your brother painted it. Its a 3500 car
Front driver side wheel looks like is pushed back a little. Possible a lower control arm. Do the finger test man
Bad ass car tho !!!!!
For sale? How much?
Tape line around them stickers looks bad. Its going to need cut and buffed lol
Explains why your "friend"s car has been on the lift for years 🤦♂️ I couldn't even do that to an X wife
That is a 1991 Talon, not a 1990. ABS is a dead giveaway, that wasn't available in 1990. Also the original color wasn't available on 1990's either.
He tie wrapped the brake line because he ran out of duct tape!!!
Rear tyres look toed out not in
Take it to Car Wizard
Very desirable car right now I bet it brings 11-12k all day easy!!!
Craig u did that all urself and are trying to blame someone else u did that😂
Craig ship it to me at d and T Performance. I'll get that think right for you no bs
Do you guys specialize in DSMs?
Yes dsm focus st and rs neon srt4 Hondas etc.
Did you find this video under the couch when you were packing up? She’s dusty old 😂
He's trying to keep posting while he is busy moving his whole family to a different state, dipshyt.! 😂
U & ur bro swat kats.
Sorry I’m late watching, but you get screwed over more than anyone I know and being a dealer should be hard to get over on you. Love watching channel. One thing why do you have lots of small cars? You look like a hot rod kind of guy stay safe hope you come south soon 👍
Craig is gonna get roasted again...
Yo Craig‼️
Those cars were a POS when they were new
I woulda kept it the original gray
I have a black Talon TSI and Conquest TSI since new. Please try to slow down and be more positive. Constantly complaining is so depressing. Thank you. Best of luck
Two cars I want to add toy collection.
Anyone else prefer the old paint color?

I can't deal with the volume up and down up and down anymore. It's not enjoyable to watch.
Crazy to see men behaving feminine. Complaining about the lamest issue. Smh
Your friend is a butcher!...no where near a perfectionist.....Q; Why dont you pressure wash the underside of the vehicle first before you start in with a recoating?
This can’t be real.
Why not?
No RUclips = bankruptcy
Why would you change the color? I own a 91 Turbo AWD in that great silver/purple and black combination. The best combination. You changed it to red. A great rare color to everyday trash color.
It's the color I always wanted
@@FlyingWheels Fair enough, your call. Great videos by the way. I just love some of original colors in cars. The dark purple talon is also super cool.
He's making these vids for advertising to help with selling it. The paint job ruined any "REAL" value it might have had. BUT EVEN THEN 15K IS A JOKE!!
PROBABLY NEEDS ENGINE WORK AFTER HIS FRIEND FUCKED IT UP.
$2500 CAR ALL DAY ANYWHERE.
Doesn’t run right for 5 yrs and u want 15,000 for it when u sell it. Craig it’s a 3500 car 🚗 . If u were to buy that same car from me what would u pay? I know your in the car game and u look for suckers too buy that stuff I get it.
Hence car STEALER!!!!! Loooooool😂
Old DSMs never run right, I had 4 until I bought my first Honda and realized how much easier and cheaper Hondas were to fix
I just saw a 1995 ford probe with 70k miles, $15,000
I like how you guys think Craig doesn't know what cars are worth...used car dealers ARE THE MARKET!!!
You must must be one of those guys who make the car market.
Wow it looks like your friend who did the work should not be working on any cars!
Bankrupt soon
Quit wasting your time and money on this crap! Focus on your business.
That brake line is zip tied to the shock because you bought cheap crappy shocks/coilovers without the correct mounting brackets. Megans are s%&t pieces.
Automatic? booo this man
why paint it the mostt boring red you could
It’s the color he wanted
no offense to your brother but that paint job just looks not great
Rick @racetek will fix it. That's a guarantee.
Junk new and junk old.
Are you serious about moving to Florida? You haven't heard of hurricanes, home insurance rates and right-wing state government ?
Lol he's fucked
You fucked it up by doing a color change! The decals look SHITTY!!!
You take cash app lmao sorry I had to
No idea what you are doing
Craig cregg crig
Chrysler junk as always
Paying people to make you car worse...😂
Overboost!
Real car guy except for that darn Kia. Sell it.
