I know of DSM owners that would put that GOAT of yours back in the farm... just saying. If you treat them right they are great cars, plus the handling on them are better than alot of cars.

i'll be at sedd march 7th...invite them, but if they aint packing mid to high 10 second time slips it's going to be hilarious to watch :goodjob:

i've forgotten more about dsm's than you'll ever know....so don't think i'm some redneck with a domestic who doesn't speak from experience, i owned a 1st gen awd tsi that was faster than anything you've ever owned 7 or 8 years ago, so i've been there, done that, fixed every bullshit thing you can think would go wrong on a car and not a day goes by i don't thank the good lord above for sending me a buyer for that damn thing

Ignorance is bliss...it's all about the history of the car, and whether or not it has been owned by morons in its lifetime. DSM's treat the owner in the manner they are treated.

ignorance? i owned a dsm for over 2 years....and treated it no different than i do my gto and all i've done on the gto is maintenance stuff and a broken axle stub

it has nothing to do with how you treat the car, it has to do with the low quality of a mitsubishi made product....the motors were awesome, the transfer cases were ehh and the transmissions were shit, they were painted with the cheapest shit possible and essential pieces of the car were poorly manufactured.

please don't tell me you're arguing that mitsubishi makes a stand up product? then or now....

Mine seems to be holding up pretty well actually. The only gripe I really have with it is the interior, nothing is wrong yet but everything is sooooo brittle. Then again, it's 20 years old. People expect a new car when they buy a rather old one that's had the piss beat out of it.

GTO=40kish car, DSM=2k car. What do you expect? Actually fuck Mitsu for their shitty ass IAC design, guaranteed failure lol.

i agree whole heartedly...minus the fact that you think gm made a good product either, lol....my car isn't exactly a engineering marvel

but like i said there are cars out there that hold up, they are just few and far between....i had some of the weirdest issues out of the car, wheel bearings shitting out one after another, center carrier bearings on the driveshaft both took a shit at the same time, and just random crap here and there

Indeed they do act up for strange reasons sometimes, I won't deny that. Mine had a few annoyances when I bought it due to a reatrded PO. The love/hate relationship can definitely exist. But imo a 90-91 1g is one of the best values on the market if it has been taken car of.

agreed....i had a 90 talon tsi awd....and to be honest it was by far the funnest car to drive, especially when it was wet out, mine came factory with lsd, etc etc and had a swapped cyclone with a evo 3 big 16g turned up...the front would lose traction and then the rear would kick in since i think the actual awd part was split like 80/20 in ideal situations and then locked the rear when losing traction....that sumbitch would be all over the place at WOT

Yea I got the Talon too, the split is 70/30. Not the same feel as symmetrical but still way better than straight up wrong wheel drive. I don't know how the fuck you could take a corner in boost with a fwd DSM. I'm just waiting for my motor to blow while I clean everything else up, then the evo III swap will commense.

Evil Goat - In some posts you are praising DSM's and others you are chastising them. Every person that has owned one can say they hated the car and complain about every little thing that was wrong with it. But you can't tell me you didn't love the car and admit it was the best car for the price. I had a 2g that was making like 250 and I had more fun in that car than my evo.


You can talk shit about a dsm all you want but at the end of the day, you know you loved it.

diamond star motors was a joint venture between chrysler and mitsubishi....technically they stopped making "dsm's" in '95 when the name changed from diamond star motors to mitsubishi motors of america or something like that....early built 95's had dsm tags under the hood while late built 95's didnt

Your correct the dsm YOU had was a POS. If you know as much as you say you do you would know that alot of stuff on the 90 was very different from later model year 1gs. The trans was smaller and much weaker,and there no such thing as an evo 3 big 16. Theres either or not both. The only thing that makes a dsm unreliable is INCOMPETENT OWNERS. Not making threats but when I can make it out to one of these track days I will show you how a high 10 sec reliable dsm gets down :goodjob:

LOL at this thread. Evil Goat you are correct on one thing, yes iirc the '99 spyders had the 2.4 so technically not a DSM. However the EVO 3 16g is NOT a big 16g. There is the regular 16g, the big16g, and the EVO 3 16g. Lots of manufacturers call it the EVO 3 big 16g but that is just to make it sound better. If it is a true MHI turbo then it is just a plain ole EVO 3.

Also they are just as dependable as any other older car that you start modifying. If you got the time and cash to keep it properly maintained they are good cars. Same goes for any other car.

this isn't worth arguing over...i'm not talking to intelligent people here

let me make this easy for you two to understand....evo 3 big 16g's were not stock turbos...iirc they have a bigger compressor wheel than a factory evo 3 16g and flow more cfm's....hence the evo3 BIG 16g...they were not offered on any mitsubishi vehicle...it would be like buying a turbo from bullseye, pte, etc, etc

i dont know what to tell you guys next if you don't understand that.

Trust me, I understand.
There are different companies "own versions" yes, I'll give you that. I personally will only buy a true MHI when it comes to the Evo 3. Check RRE, their heading says Evo 3 big 16g, however they represent it correctly as just an Evo 3 when doing the MHI 16g comparisons.

don't know what to tell you...i know the turbo i bought flowed more cfm's than a regular 16g, the exhaust housing was ported by rre so that it would match my apexi 3" downpipe...i haven't been versed in dsm stuff in years, i sold that car around 6 to 6.5 years ago

It definitely went through some rough times between the first owner and you. Plus a lot of shit was taken off before he sold it, so you didn't get the version that was 600+ HP.


lol so i heard a little about that. that was when it had the 7 bolt in it eh? and wow didnt know it was built like that before. shame to see how much one person can do to a car. i wanna see some pics of it back then

It went through a couple people before you. When it was on 35lbs it was just fuckin stupid. It looked the same, just different in the engine bay I would imagine.

because the Eclipse isnt really a Japanese car, yes it is a Mitsu, but its never been made in Japan only in America. Have you ever seen them over there when doing a search for cars online in Japan?
