Another 10 years and they might catch up to the current quickest DSMs and Supras. :)

I agree.

LOL, yeah thats a dsm.
If thats the case, the 3s's have been in the 7's for a few years. There is a prostock team running a 6g72 in a 3g eclipse.
Brent's eclipse is more like an "eclipse". Johns talon is a talon...everyone else is way behind (besides a few individuals).
Normal DSM's wall in the 11's, then 10's, then 9's is a huge hurdle.
3s's are about a second behind. 12's are easy, 11's are work, 10's are an accomplishment, and a select few are in the 9's.

:from the evo owner:

Even the Evos passed the 3/S's up in 1/2 of the time of being out in the US of A and broke into the 8s. :D

Good point! The 4g63 is pretty new to the U.S., so that is a huge accomplishment.
What is with the 3s hating? Isn't this Mitsustyle? The 3000gt/stealth community is finally starting to get aftermarket support.

Yeah once 3S' get cheaper and cheaper I think the aftermarket will get larger. That's the main reason Honda and DSM's are insane with aftermarket parts. You're not making a huge car payment so you can afford to mod.

I totaly agree with this statment. I respect the 3S guys alot. I mean wow to take a yaht and put that in the 9's is great. I bet if Swanny could hook up he be close. Or even there. We don't know what that Stealth can do with a clean run.

But I think the reason why the Evo's are so quick to get in the low times...is the Mivecc they have on the 4g.... Unless they are not running that. I know the FTO's have it.

DSMs are slow. :D

So why is it big news when a 3S runs a 9, and that same number hardly garners a yawn in the DSM crowd? :D Oh yeah, there twelve times as many DSM's running 9's or better compared to the 3S crowd. ;)
