I spent most of the day underneath a DSM today, and let me tell you, it made me miss my Nissan so much!

Thought I'd post some pics of the experience here... I know its not really KA-T related but I thought you guys might enjoy the pics more since I know most people here do their own work and understand how things are sometimes haha.

This car has been the subject of ridicule for my friend for the past THREE years. Over that time it has been sitting in this shoddy tent in his front yard, waiting for his "turbo swap" to eventually come. He pulled the engine apart not knowing what he was doing (and before his payments were even over) that long ago, and it has been sitting ever since. Today we FINALLY got it running again.

How bout a couple pics of the nightmare?? OKAY!

The race car:

Will (the owner) lamenting about his current prediciment and the poor quality of DSM parts

"Testing the starter to make sure it works." The kid on the right is a sallypants and jumped cause of the sparks. I need to make this into one of those "owned" pics.

The obligitory "pen15 and balls drawn in car dust." Haha his car has all kinds of vile images drawn all over it in the dust... He deserves it!

And, yes, the interior. Will is a recovering ricer. I say recovering because he DOES plan on removing/replacing/burning this series of horrible mistakes. Consider it a lesson learned haha

BUT IT IS RUNNING! Just some tweaking and she'll be back on the road beating single cam neons and minivans in NO TIME! hahahaha.

Thought you guys might enjoy

Whew, it's a good thing my mom's neon (the car I drive) is DOHC. Wouldn't want to get beat by someone with a baby blue interior.

Yeah weve worked on quite a few dsms. They break.....a lot. They can be fun though (no lie). They suck stock though. They absolutely have to have lsd or be awd. Its no fun toasting one front tire all the time. It is funny to watch though.

been there done that SOLD IT as soon as I realized my mistake... lol

it's sad when you can buy a 'beater car' for 650$ and it is infinitely more fun to drive (and faster) than your 8k$ car. At least the eclipse looked good... Now it's in the hands of a chick (where it belonged in the first place) lol

*puts on flame retardant suit* flame away
