ideally, you should get a 91 awd.
91 still has some drawbacks, but youre guaranteed to get a 6 bolt motor and thats what counts; whats on the inside!
that talon in my sig is my gf's car, psifactor. it was virtually stock when we bought it, rebuilt motor, Type S bov, boost controller, turbo timer and guages... now its quite hooked up and is supposed to be a high 12 second car.... on the stock turbo.
91 has a mean ass lookin front end, before it went to the fixed headlights.
its easier to swap a 4 bolt rear end into a 91 than it is to swap a 6 bolt motor into a 92+. a rear end swap you can do in a few hours, in the driveway and spend no more than $300.... speaking from experience.
our car has all of the good stuff except big brakes... which we are working on right meow.
normally the 7 bolt in 1G's is not nearly as likely to crankwalk as the 7bolt found in 2G's... they are different, even though they are both called 7bolts. the 6 bolt is LEAST likely to crankwalk, the 7bolt from 92-94 1G's are less likely to crank walk... but the 7 bolts in 94-99 are most likely to crankwalk.
