haha nice way to put it.


Diamon Star Motors. basically they made the eclipse, eagle talon and plymuth laser. the cars are awd, turbo and can be made very very fast, but have lots mechanical problems.

DSM = Diamond Star Motors = Mitsubishi

The picture is just bashing on the reliability of Mitsubishis. And I, for one, can back that up.

EDIT: Too slow. Art beat me to it.

Now SR powered
i always thought dsm was donate some money so i can fix my ride haha or didnt spend much on my car
haha very true but the 6 bolts I built up are both pushing over the 1000 mile mark. STAY AWAY FROM THE ACT 2600! those will eat your motor alive whatever you got.

A nice compromise is the Centerforce Dualfriction.

94' ST Coupe - 5sfe Motor swap and brake swap.

not to mention, that clutch will throw your back out or something. u have to put all your body weight on it just to change gears.

lol..thouse 2 pics just reminded me of a guy i was in college with. He had a 92 Talon. he blew his motor b4 school started, he blew his motor while i was there, got it back, and apparently blew his motor again..all crank walk, all on the highway, all the exact same way. Curisng along, goes 2 pass some one, gives her some gas, a big thud, every thing shuts down, car gets hard 2 turn, some more bad noises come from under the hood, and then pullin over on the side of the highway to call for a towtruck and to call ur shop to say "Its me again...it happened again...."
you really cant own a dsm and take it to a shop. you just wouldnt be able to afford all the repairs. thats why DSM's are turing normal people into mechanics since 1989.
