Reminds me I need to do my rears again. Pretty sure the calipers are partially seized because I've had to replace them before the fronts are due...
Your Talon looks to be in better condition than I usually see around here! Are those AWD?

Oh ok! haha How's the AWD system? I've never had the opportunity to drive one only WRXs and STIs. They seem very understeery but grip like nothing else!

I'm in the exact opposite boat... Sitting on coilovers with more suspension waiting to be installed but have a stock (read low powered) engine

It works... In an autocross (on poor tires) I've completely spun mine on long sweeping turns and once through the slalom.

I'm fairly certain that no street driven talon has looked that good since 2005.

Oooh funny story I just remembered.
The night before I was to change the brakes on my DSM they were really bad and I kinda rolled through a stop sign on a steep downhill. Campus police pulled me over.
I was coming from a hookah lounge so I smelled like ass and they ask me to get out for a sobriety test. Slightly embarrassing but fine, whatever I haven't been drinking. Though after the 3rd or 4th time they said are you sure?? 'cuz you really reek it started to hurt my feelings.
It was my 2nd night driving the car in like 2 years and being a 90's car I completely forgot about the automatic belt, and the not automatic lap belt.
I put one foot out, the lap belt extends until it abruptly can't and I smack the side of the car and nearly fall on my face, had I not been suspended by the lap belt an inch off the pavement. The cops just stare at me.
"I...I'm not drunk. NOT drunk, its the laaap beelt!"
A second patrol car arrives to watch the sobriety test.
