I live in Pueblo currently. I'm not from here originally though. I am moving back to Denver in like June or July. Thank god. This town has absolutely no opportunities for GOOD jobs. It is by far the biggest small town I've ever been in. Besides that, the cost of living is going up here and the wages aren't. :eek: This town might see the light in about 100 yrs or so.

[wolf20043]

LMAO! your not kidding about that. Been here for about 6 yrs now and I think I know everyone by now :confused: . Way to small. Julia and I were going to move back to the Springs till we found our new house with a new shop so we are staying for a bit longer :cool:
We just see ALOT od DSM's here in Pueblo so we were kinda looking for others in the area.

So what kind of car do you drive? As you can probably tell mine is a 92 laser rs awd. 6/4 bolt. I bought it for $600. The only reason that I got it that cheap was because it was torn apart. I still need to put it back together. It seems like every time I go to put a part on, it is missing some tiny little part that is dealer only. I am just waiting to get the manual from the dealer, it should be here like tomorrow or Wednesday. Do you know a lot about these cars? This is my first DSM and my first Turbo car also. I'm not too firmiliar with these things :o . I'm just trying to get it running before I move. All that needs to be done is, put the
Fuel rail and injectors on,
the throttle body,
all the vacuum lines for that,
the turbo and exhaust,
and all the belts and timing belt,
and the coils, and wires and oil lines for the turbo. :confused:
I had the head rebuilt at Motive Machine for $200. Any advice will be much appreciated :D . Thanks and wish me luck. :cool:

I know at least enough to get it running(I hope).I bought julia her 92 talon for her for valentines day this year.still need to do so engine work but it is in very good shape.
If you get to a stuck point just let me know and we can put our heads together and get it done.

Hey thanks man, I really appreciate that. The only thing that I think that I will have a real problem with, is getting the pulleys on and timing it. I will let you know if I run into problems. I was also wondering if you had spare parts. The reason being, is because I am missing the hose that goes from the trottle body to the air can. That is the only thing that I know for sure that I'm missing right now. I'm sure I'll find more stuff. Thanks I'll right down your screen name and get ahold of you if I need some help. Thanks again. :)

glad to know that there is at least one other here in pu town lol. sorry to read that soon we will be the only ones :( anyway thanks for replying we have got to get together before you move away :D Mike and I were thinking about getting a meet and greet type of thing for people in the area at our new house. We were kind of hoping for a larger response from pueblo but hey no biggie springs peeps are welcome too.......we just don't have an exact date yet but will post it probably pretty soon with a date :cool:

[92laserawd]

Right on, we'll definately have to do that. I just picked up both rear tail lights, the center console cover, and a mirror for the driver side door. I snagged two lenses for the back up lights too, but only need one. It's good to have extra, just in case. :)
I am moving this weekend to my G-friends G-pa's house to save money before we move in a few months. That is really going to kick some a$$. Well let us "all" know when the meet and greet is. Take it easy.

[wolf20043]

Well right on Bro........We are in the new house and pretty close to being settled in.....Actually am in My shop right now with the Talon behind me right now :D .gonna make life alot easier any way.You should give a shout soon before you head out of town.,
Mike :cool:

Well I got quite a bit done on the car now. I ran into a bit of a snag with the antifreeze line that goes under the exhaust man., where the bolt goes into the block to hold the aluminum line into the water pump. The turbo is in the way to get the bolt in. So I think that I'll have to take the manifold out and the turbo just to get that little bolt back in. After that is conquered, I just have to hook up the lines for the turbo, and hook up the exhaust. Then just the timing belt and other belts. Everything else is done or is cake to get done. I checked the shaft play on the turbo. It moves kinda sideways a little. Like maybe a 1/4 inch or so. Give or take a little. It only moves one way though. Like only up and down, and NOT side to side. It doesn't move in or out either.
I've been sick the last 4 days and off of work too. That sucks that I had 4 days off and couldn't do anything on my car. Oh well. Take it easy. :)
