If you could, copy and paste what was said. I don't want to sign up on a forum just to read crap. I am a former owner of a DSM, and I have nothing but good things to say about them.

Yea, not to mention how quick DSM's can be for VERY little money. You can dip into the 13's w/ less than $60. Many people talk about how unreliable they are and such. If you take care of the car, and do regular maintenance, there is no reason it could lose the reliability factor.

Ya I know as much about DSM's as I do my S14, which is a good amount. They're great cars and r pretty reliable if u know how to take care of em and know wat to look for.

DSM's make great cars if you know what you're doing. 1/2 the time you see one running like poo or not running, is the owner's fault, not the car's. You take care of the car, it'll take care of you. It's a mutual thing. They're common for a reason. What person into cars (and going in straight lines) wouldn't want a 13sec car for less than $4000?

the eclipse gs-t and gsx are badass, only bad thing is crankwalk, but if you keep them with the 97 STOCK look just drop it with nice rims they look tight, and they get pretty ****ing fast. my brothers is fast as hell, and he doesnt have much stuff

lancer EVoltion turbo (ported and clipped)
greddy type-s bov
3in piping Thermal exhaust
1st gen. block
2nd gen pistons in 1st gen block
greddy intercooler piping
K&N air filter
60 mm greddy peak hold boost and EGT meter
balance shaft eliminator kit
polished valves
ported head and exhaust manifold
arp head studs
hes boosing about 12-14 lbs right now but he cant boost more yet.
hes getting 660cc fuel injectors and an intercooler (dont know which) then he will be able to boost more.

That's actually a lot of stuff on a DSM. Is he running the stock clutch? I sure hope not. The only DSM's that have quite a few cases of crankwalk is the 95-98. Some 98's were saved and most 99's are ok. I'll get more in depth, but I have to go.
