The car itself, ya they are fine... the 1g's are ugly as hell, but launch like a mother ******.

Why is it that the majority of DSM owners think they are god? A lot of my friends have 1st gen eclipses/talons and they also think they know everything. I think it is associated to the turbo because I am getting very cocky with my car since the turbo.

AWD's launching and getting sideways is schweeet!

Another thing I have noticed, a natural progression for crx owners has been to move onto a DSM.

DSM's are just the easy way out...

----, you can make a 11 sec daily driver with hardly any money..

but they are just gay looking. Have you guys ever drove one? god, you cant even see out of them, they are uncomfortable as hell.

I have done tons of work to dsms.. tranny swaps/engine swaps whatever, they are pretty well engineered cars. The body just blows ***.

nah hondas arnt like that.. unless you have a really low compression. DSM's are butt *** slow without any boost. it takes a second before they start moving, where as most turbo honda's get up and go pretty quickly.

Mods were easy *** hell to do.. but it weighs a ton... body looks like ----... parts are expensive as hell... and the interior is small as hell too...

But big *** engine... damn i missed that 4G63

That is so true around here. SO many eclipses, talons, lasers, whatthehekever owners, talk like they know so much. One guy was dumb enough to say, yeah, I took mine all the way up to 30psi and busted my muffler.... I really couldn't figure that one out...

but anyway. I do enjoy an eclipse. My friend has one, and it drives nice, and you can kinda feel the weight of them.

I heard crankwalk was mainly on the 2g 4g63's.. and I have pretty close friends at the mitsu dealer, and they have never had one problem with them, maybe its just the DSM myth.. ?

I have seen 3 Kia sephias have thrust bearings just fall out, does that mean its a problem in all of them? Nah, it was probably a late friday afternoon and Houch decided to just throw the bitches in.. heh
