Opinions on this for my brother
My little brother is looking to get his first decent car. He has a truck, and is looking to trade for a Talon TSI. Here is the guys craigslist post.
I just need opinions on this, and what should we look out for?
Also, could somebody explain what " itp end clutches for it and a complete valve body with all soilinoids and translab 175 shift kit" is?

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Lol... This is great. I just made an account trying to get posts and come across this.
I currently on a 1995 Eagle Talon TSi I converted 2GB TSi.
If the car is auto and it has a new used auto tranny? I would stay away from it. Most likely that car was beat. Dsms are known to get beat and owners abuse the hell out of them. Chances are if he gets a DSM he will end up braking something as they're known for breaking down a lot.
I say if he doesn't have a decent budget a DSM is not for him. Coming from someone who's fixed his DSM for ages and still trying to keep it reliable, while modding it.

your frist mistake is looking for a car on craigslist.
secondly this whole ad reeks of stupid. auto ..really...I mean REALLY. this car is worth 900 at best.
its super hard(if not impossible) to find a TSI, you not going build from the ground up yourself.
tell your brother he will have to buy a Honda until he gets more money. just tell'em speed means nothing stance is everything, he will grow a neck beard and wear stupid glasses, but at least he wont make the mistake of buying this POS from craigslist.
