Lower balancer shaft bearing came loose and the balancer shaft had to be removed (This was fine by me because it's considered a performance upgrade). It cost me $600 CDN only and added 15-25 HP. That price also included a new oil pump.
Amazingly fast car, handles great in the Canadian winter, I haven't been able to get it stuck anywhere yet.
This car seems extremely tough, I rev it to 6200rpm in every gear and drop it from 4500rpm off the line a lot. It just keeps going and going I love it. For how reliable this car seems to be, when the engine dies (if it does) I will have it rebuilt and the car will go forever again.
I have to say man I have a 1995 dodge avenger es that hasn't broken once in the last 7 months and it just rolled over 200 000km's lol, mitsu engines are amazingly reliable if you ask me and now I'm in the process of trading my avenger for a 90 Talon TSi AWD and we rebuilt the engine in one week, new parts, it was so easy to work on, and if you ever want performance upgrades all th internal engine parts are easily accessible :D enjoy the talon ;) and go kill some civics for me! or even a few corvettes, lol...
