Thats true the car i guess might brake if i turned The BOOST UP TO LIKE 22PSI and just DROVE IT LIKE A FOOL! But it was not driven IT STILL HAS NOT BEEN DRIVING BECAUSE I AM MISSING A FEW IMPORTANT PARTS! Like axle support bolts which hopefully i will get from stephan tomorrow. As well as a new side mount intercooler kit ( If any body would like to sell me theirs ^_^ send me a PM) All in all I am still in My Budget that i planned so im not crying! I was just hoping (which is where i went wrong! DSM Doesn't show mercy) that the car will run as soon as i fixed the stuff that was wrong!

I never accused stephan of lying or being shady well i did just a lil not for lying though! People might not understand I love DSM i just really do i always wanted one. I thought i could trust people of the forums he seemed so legit i still think he is to some extend. HE JUST FREAKING MESSED UP on explaining crap its the only way i can put it! I mean THERE WAS NO NEED TO THROW THE VALVE COVER ON CRAPILY HAVING OIL COMING OUT OF IT! IF YOU ARE SELLING A CAR MAKE TIME FOR IT ANSWER ALL MY QUESTIONS! I dont know how many times i can say it you guys are right it is my fault for buying my car no one held a Gun to my head and forced me to buy it, but this should prove to be a good lesson for everyone that is a noob that does not know a CRAP load about DSM's like KRACKA, Push it 2.0 and all you other DSM lovers. Make sure you take your time before you buy a car! I think things like that should not tear the Mitsu style community apart. I mean i dont get this kind of support on MNSC and other forums. I like Mitsu Style. Yet i will say it and continue to say stephan carries some fault as well.

Nope just the good old Hand shake ill take your word for it. Stephan is known, his brothers are known! He seemed like a nice kid not out to scamm no one! He has a nice VR4. Yet that doesnt mean the DSM he was selling was a DIME IN A DOZEN. If what he says is true there shouldn't be any more problems right....? Ok then!

well, you did buy it As-Is. On the "plus side", i guess, hopefully the rebuilt engine will be good for you. If you need parts, ask around and it'll gradually come. I just went to the junkyard about a week ago and saw a FWD turbo auto 1g. still had the side IC when i checked, turbo,head,manifold is gone though. enjoy your dsm and your stay and I'm sure we'll help out with your issues as much as we can.

EDIT:
Mitsustyle is nothing like mnsc.

as for purple smoke never heard of it or seen it out of a car. a car running rich enough to smoke it will be black, burning coolant is white smoke, and burning oil is blue smoke. as for the rebuild if it isn't from a reputable shop or someone known for knowing how to rebuild engines you really don't know what your getting into. just because someone takes it apart and puts it back together doesn't mean it's done right.

to weigh in on this... Im almost opposed to buying a car that has ever been modified. Not that I want to break a car's mod cherry or anything, but 95%+ of people haven't a clue what they're doing and do really crap, haphazard work. They ignore basic maintenance and slap mods on it.

Alright, here's how I'm going to state this. One time.

The longblock and head are from a colt part out in the sale threads back in summer.

When I sold the car, it was blowing some nasty smoke, due to what I thought to the best of my knowledge was a boost leak.

Sold the car to him, he he finds a coolant leak here, and the sidemount is leaking. Coolant leak, I have no idea how that formed, because when I had it it was dry in my garage on the ground, no coolant.

Sidemount leak? I was not aware it was leaking to begin with.

In short, what I'm saying is. I sold the car to the best of my knowledge knowing what I knew when I sold it. It was sold AS IS.

I didn't mask any problems with the car, and I'm certainly not mad at Alpha D at all, don't get the wrong impression. He and I are working this out.

Alpha, we're still cool, I'm just a little agitated when you contact me at work or school. I'm more than willing to help you with what I know via PM's. From now on, lets keep this to PM's.

Like I said, I wasn't trying to be an ass, I just don't want to be texted all the time at school and work.
