Sorry haha
If you don't mod it, why would it break?
I am sick of people blaming DSMs, its not the cars its the owners.
Shane sorry to hear about your bad luck but its a price we pay trying to learn this stuff first hand and saving a few bucks.

Ehh when I had my DSM it was meticulously maintained and it was still problem after problem... Almost every part on the car was new by the time I sold it. I do blame dsms. haha

My cars modded and I drive it like its supposed to be driven and its been the most reliable car Ive ever had.

You started off with a car that was a basket case though, that doesn't count. I bet you aren't putting out the kind of power in the M that the DSM had either.

Thats true but im not counting the rebuild and body work and stuff to make it nice. When it was done the first time it was 16g-ed and almost totally stock. Then the mods came on it and a couple years later the 20g..

I do miss it though and would like another one on the side someday. I just know now that a reliable daily is necessary.

Get an evo then 330+whp and 50+ miles every day, and I generally do not drive it lightly unless I'm low on gas or alky
