Front bumper appears to be a stock one with some kind of lip!!!

the two best days of a dsm owners life is the day he buys the car and the day he sells that piece of shit

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

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

on the underlined part. The DSM's do high 8's low 9's, and do you know what cars I have owned previously.... NOPE so your fibbing up BS.

who are these dsm owners you know? because i know a good majority of the faster ones around these parts and there aren't but just a handful of ones faster than myself

My grandma's DSM does a high 8s, low 9s?

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

Hopefully my next ride will be a EVO X. EVO X's I would rate as a stand up product.

At least Mitsubishi is still making cars.

They can be reliable. I accidentally shifted mine from 4th to 1st at full boost and it didn't blow up.

i'll admit....some can be, my cousin owned a 95 gst that made 300whp with a 50trim, injectors, front mount, 3" turbo back exhaust, and a afc controller and the only thing that ever went wrong on that car for the 3 or 4 years he owned it was an alternator....and we used to beat the shit out of that car

5th is to the right, not the left Simon...

[Evil Goat]

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.

Also there were no talons, lasers, or eclipses in Japan. They had the FTO so there is no such thing as a factory rhd dsm.

a day late and a dollar short...we've already covered both points

At least Mitsubishi is still making cars.

Just Sayin'

just sayin....faggot

DSM's stopped production in '99...

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

RIGHT. 3rd gens are NOT DSMs

99's were 2nd gen's and as stated before not all 2nd gen's were genuine dsm's

[AnthonyF]

I'd love to pick up a GSX or GS-T vert and convert it to a GSX. 98-99 Models.

That car looks very sexy. the front kinda reminds me of a JDM Teggy.

I've thought of that so much, just ditch the soft top and get a roll bar. That would be such a ballin weekend car.

I'm about to buy some 280zx fender flares for my 1g, I can't stop looking at this thing.

[AnthonyF]

Here's a question...why is it LHD?

-Ant.

[Evil Goat]

Here's a question...why is it LHD?

-Ant.

because there are no rhd 1g's

[Odinx269]

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?

[DeeAOne]

i thought this was a picture thread? lol

whether its dsm or not, it looks good imo.

Agreed on both parts.

Everyone knows somebody who owns a car that can beat someone else's car, what's the point?

1g's were usa only models iirc

i wasn't as versed with 2g stuff as the 1g's so i can't speak for those

Ive have mutiple DSM's and i cant get enough of them!
