A few nice Porsche's
3 Evo's
A bunch of 3S'
bout 12 DSM's (No 1g's)
a couple 4th Gen Supras
Some really nice 3rd Gen RX-7's
Some loud ass 100k truck

B96 is there, along with a lot of other shit to do.

And they're giving away 3 times as much shit.

And it's $5.00 less.

I've been asked 4 times tonight why none of DSMStyle is there.

I'm the only one sporting DSMStlye, and I entered a 3g.

The only car show I need to see is in the staging lanes at the track.

The only car show I need to see is in my driveway.

your point being i have an rs? whats that supposed to mean. i was in talks with allan no less than a month ago getting quotes on a full engine build or possable turbo setup. if you havent noticed, most people who go to shows like to LOOK at cars rather then critique their powerplants. ooh well. fuck it, rip on my car all you want. im have plenty of people telling me i have a nice car, i dont need to hear it from you. :secret:

no, people go to car shows to see nice cars. nice cars include nice motors. turbo'd RS's dont qualify. i guess im just a nay-sayer. i'm not nice. oh well. sell your car, get a real one.

**Shane@DBPerformance** · 08-21-2004

Please don't build a 420A for turboing it! Those motors are so dissappointing even when built. Do a basic kit with the stock motor and run 8psi or whatever, if your not happy with that kind of power then look for a different car or have them weld in motor mounts for a stock 4G63 and put that in.

you misunderstood me, i was going to have him either build up the engine or do a turbo install, not build for turbo. im not doing any kind of build now, im leaving it stock. if i was living on my own, not going to school, not paying for tuition and not still making payments on the car, maybe it would be different. I guess i dont even drive a real car according to you guys. this is a bs argument anyways due to almost everyones "my car is better than yours" mentality.

You gave me the blow off on the way to 280. I was in the 3g.

There is nothing wrong with an RS if the RS isnt at the track.
Going fast isnt the only thing in this world of cars, Sure is great to have a fast car and show it off, but at a car SHOW, its not all about go. Honestly i loved autovations (except for the price) and there was a lot of Nice show cars there as well as fast ones.
lets see some of the 1g dsms here rust and all, but really fast, go to a CAR SHOW and how many looks will it get.... well not many except for the people going what the fuck is this car doing at a car show and not at the track.
its a chance to show your nice car off and show how much work you put into it. whether its a sweet paint job, the bling factor or just a fast modded all around car (perf. mods to boot.) Xrated is a prime example of this, they had a kick ass booth that brought a lot of attention, for one they have Uber Nice looks and Uber nice mods.
all im saying folks is give credit where credit is due, some people work soo hard to get their cars the way they look. another prime example is the older cars, a lot of them would not do shit at the track but are fucking flawless at the shows.

I saw the dsmstyle decals so I figured it might be someone off the board. I was just riding along, the owner was still breaking in the clutch and motor. Its built for road race/ auto-x.

JDM · 08-22-2004

I love GLHS'! Although I figured the driver was just another hater trying to make me know the car is boosted, although I knew...

But nice car none the less.
