I love my DSM and if you feel that same way about yours post on here and lemme know...in the north and the midwest people worship their dsm's

i wish it was that big around here...it seems like atlanta is a big honda town:jerkit: lets try to change that. if yall would be up for a dsm meet post on here and if we get enough post then we will schedule one!!!

Let me know...

**Tracy** · 02-28-2006, 09:34 PM

Atlanta is not a big Honda town! It is a big everything town!

That's the reason that Atlanta can support 16546545 tuning shops in a 30 mile radius.

Either way, I'm down for a DSM meet if my Evo is considered a DSM and is invited

**PSINXS** · 02-28-2006, 09:42 PM

your evo is going to beat the other cars up. it has to park alone tracy

**salbrit1** · 02-28-2006, 09:45 PM

tracy ur evo is def considered a dsm especially cuz its a newer version of the 4g63t ( my motor) just a lil more beefed up...o ya n there is nuthin sexier than a chick in a dsm haha but let your friends know cuz i wanna have a good dsm meet

**PSINXS** · 02-28-2006, 09:46 PM

I think we all know they aren't really DSM's but that just because they weren't made in Normal, Illinois....they are DSM's at heart, tho

**salbrit1** · 02-28-2006, 09:50 PM

i consider the evo a dsm cuz its the only mitsu left that has turbo AWD...yea its not the same make but the concept is all the same

**ClipseGST** · 02-28-2006, 09:53 PM

Tired of seeing Honda's around!!!

**HotNissaNBoy** · 03-01-2006, 09:15 AM

What would you consider DSM?.....(sorry kinda noob question)

**salbrit1** · 03-01-2006, 10:25 AM

DSM stands for diamond star motors...mitsubishi's but not all mitsubishis...all of the first generation eclipses and cars like that are dsm's when you get to the second generation only the turbo's are dsm's the nonturbo's were made by chrysler, then you got your galant vr-4's and your 300gt's and the earlier mitsu's...most people consider the new evo VIII dsm beacause it is a dsm at heart

The Mitsubishi Eclipse and Eagle Talon are built in Normal, Illinois, in a factory that was originally owned by Diamond-Star Motors, a joint venture between Mitsubishi and Chrysler. (The plant is now wholly owned by Mitsubishi.) From model year 1990 to 1994, the Plymouth Laser was built alongside the Eclipse and Talon. The Diamond-Star Motors abbreviation – DSM – is often used as a generic label for the Talon/Eclipse/Laser car family.

The first-generation (1G) cars – Eclipse, Talon, and Laser – are mechanically identical. The cars have small cosmetic differences, but otherwise, they are exactly the same. In the 1995 model year, the car got substantial revisions, including new sheet metal, engine changes, suspension changes, and more. The Chrysler Laser was discontinued, but the second-generation (2G) Eclipse and Talon are again the same car, sharing every part except exterior cosmetic details like the front and rear bumpers, wheels, and spoilers.

A joint effort by Mitsubishi (three diamonds) and the Chrysler Corporation (penta-star) to build some of the most incredible automobiles in the world. The vehicles were produced with the names Eagle Talon, Mitsubishi Eclipse, and Plymouth Laser. DSM cars are assembled in Normal, Illinois. The '94-and-up Mitsubishi Galant is also assembled at the DSM plant in IL; previous Galant's were assembled in Japan. The Eclipse and Galant (since '89) share the same platform.

**Dragonfly5338** · 03-01-2006, 11:29 AM

Hey I'm down!! I'm the other chick with an evo on the site, LOL. I think there's just the two of us, anyways.

**SilverJester** · 03-01-2006, 12:27 PM

Hells yeah I'm down for it. BTW everytown is a Honda town, Atlanta seems to have a lot of Nissans if you ask me. I miss my midwest DSM friends, but then again it is nice to not see one at every street corner. I know a few other people that would probably be interested (mostly guys off the GSDSM boards)...just let me know when and where!

**eclipsemonkey** · 03-01-2006, 01:34 PM

I'd be down for a dsm meet. I'll be going to Atlanta in about a month or so anyway to put my car back on the dyno, so just let me know when you decide to do it.

**1439/2000** · 03-01-2006, 05:09 PM

My car isn't a DSM. It's an MMC made in Japan not Illinois. But I'll come.
