I thought you guys might enjoy it



You might be a 3S owner if.....


-If you defend your 3800lb car when people call them land yachts

-If you carry a tool set in your car just in case anything breaks

-If you carry a screw driver in case your y-pipe blows off

-If you never race for money

-If you wait for the revs to drop when shifting into 2nd or 3rd because the gears are grinding

-If you get called out by every ricer at the races because they think your stealth is an Avenger with a body kit

-If you pull up at the races and everybody looks confused as to what it is that you’re driving

-If your stock turbo's are so small that your car works better without them after they drop off at 5200RPM

-If every time you fight with other car owners comparing your cars your last comment is about the 3S having unique styling

-If you’re trying to get to 12's and your only $100 in parts away

-If you’re trying to get to 11's and your only $3-4000 in parts away

-If you’re trying to get to 10's and your only $24,000 in parts away

-If you’re on eBay and see a current bid for $250 on an s-afc2 and you send him e-mail bartering for $150shipped

-If the price on a used S-AFC2 even depends on mileage

-If you have lost to 50 Supra's then after beating 1 supra you have a victory party

-If performance shops tell you moding your car is a waist of time and money because of weight

-If your car is in the same weight class as mini vans

-If your front turbo is bigger then your rear turbo

-If you bogg off the line in a race and the competing rwd/fwd car brags about taking you off the line

-If your VR-4 gets shit talked by a civic because he beat a SL 3kgt and doesn’t know is a TT model

-If a street tired RWD/FWD car is convinced he can take your VR-4 off the line

-If nobody knows you have AWD

-If every time you make a sweet launch everyone thinks you spray nitrous

-If every time your launch people say your front tires lifted off the ground

-If you have been through 3 transmissions in 2 years

-If every time you go for an All Wheel alignment they say they can’t align all the wheels

-If every time your take your car to dodge for a new T-case they deny you

-If you take your Stealth to a Mitsubishi dealer because Dodge acts like they never made your car

-If you have ever had a dream 3S's made it into the 9's

-If everybody calls your car a DSM

-If you are afraid to race a DSM

-If your car has more issues then a woman with Bipolar

-If every time you’re looking in a car magazine you try to find a 3000gt/Stealth

-If your car costs you more to fix then the amount you paid when you bought it

-If you swear every year Mitsubishi is coming out with a new 3000gt

-If your massively upgraded turbo’s look the same size as your stock turbo’s

-If when your at the races everyone shit talks your car until you launch in a race then everyone is on your nuts about how fast it is

-If your car always averages 100MPH on the highway because it feels like your going under 60mph

-If your passenger can never tell how fast your cruising because the rides so smooth

-If when your racing on the highway you don’t notice how fast your really going until you topped out 4th gear

-If nobody believes your 5speeds 3rd gear tops out around 125-128MPH

-If your turbo’s are so small you make 2psi at idle

-If you've spun more bearings then times you've changed your oil

-If you daily drive your SUV because it guzzles les gas then your VR-4

-If you go through more Transmissions/Transfer cases then sets of tires on your car

-If your car has more wiring then a server rack

- If your car has a moveable rear spoiler that doesn't actually move.

- If you are constantly saying, "Gee, those wheels look nice, but will they clear my calipers?"

- If you know how many splines are on the output shaft of your transmission.

- If you've looked under the hood of a friend's car and said, "What the heck, where is everything?" - and then realized you were looking at a non-turbo.

- If you have ever bought a tool just to get to a specific bolt in a hard-to-reach place on your car.

- If you spend most of your life on 3si


There are alot more good ones there too that I didn't copy over. I know far too many of them apply to me...
