Re: Damn the s14's

well, the later model DSM's are very attractive cars, but the engines and trannies suck. Sure it's easy to make them fast, but you better have a bugdet if something were to go wrong. And plus, the engine faces the wrong way.

Re: Re: Damn the s14's

where do you people get that dsm aren't realiable? is there some romor going around that says the engins go? for you info the 4g63 is a cast iron block not aluminum it is very strong and does't break the internals are forged componients thats why they can handle up to 22psi on a stock bottom end.. yes some times the crank shaft go on 2g's dsm but otherwise there is no problems i know people with 12's or better dsm that are daily driven and have over 100k and still going stong..

Re: Damn the s14's

Honestly I'v just allways have been a fan of s14's well the 95-96 anyway I have nothing against the later years but I think the 95-96's look very refined and it has really decent tq for a 4 cyl.....I dont think I could pimp a rx7...it's just not me, the only reason I remotely considered the eclipse was because of the price and figured I could daily drive it for a while.

37k shipped between 95-98?

Any idea who could verify that?

^There was a thread posted by Dorikin about it a few months ago...it had amounts for each year...I'm pretty sure it was accurate...you can pm him about where he got it...I know there weren't many S14 state-side

Definitely look in a larger radius...I've been looking for one in a 300mile radius about...200-250 is decent to look at...for an uncommon car you must look over 100 miles away usually, unless you are an area with lots of imports like socal...

Mitsu doesn't like rwd I guess...
stealth/3kgt - fwd/awd
dsm - fwd/awd
lancer - fwd/awd
fto - fwd/awd
