Re: DSM

They're completely reliable if you treat them like a normal car. Nobody does that, they throw a bunch of cheap ass ebay parts on them, expect them to make double the stock horsepower, then wonder why they break. They only two issues I remember on 1G's when they were stock was the timing belt would occasionally snap before the 60k recommended change, and the xfer case seals would go bad prematurely which prompted a recall back in the late 90's. Other than that, they were actually really reliable.
