agreed I lurk here all the time. I'm excited to see the new change and maybe even catch myself posting a few more times.

HEY!! you know what I mean
I know the evos have a 4g63 but the timing belt is on the other side and none of the parts can be interchanged... well most anyway (this could get into a long debate)

I have to say, this is a nice website with very friendly people. I would love it if mitsubishi people would come together. The mitsubishi cook out was fun to go to and would be great if there was more stuff like that.

What I would love to see is a meet where a lot of mitsubishi people get together and have a parts swap meet. I know a lot of us have car parts, cars, and part cars that they would want to sell. And there are some of us who really need car parts, like me!!

Parts can't be interchanged?
Do some research before making retarted posts.

Can I still keep my DSMstyle.com Sticker?

I take back the thing i said about friendly people on this site.

Ok sorry!!!! I will try to clarify myself so my post don't sound so "retarted" even though I thought that it was pretty clear what point I was trying to make.
I was refering to the 4g63 that came in the dsm cars. I made note also that the galant vr-4s had the same engine so the mods are pretty similar.

The EVOs that came to america, mainly the 8, 9, Had a different engine but still called the 4g63. They had a different design to them however the design was based on the old 4g63. Yes parts do swap between engines but not all of the parts do!!! PLUS can you really put a 4g63 motor from an evo into a DSM?!!! I haven't seen it done yet.




however if you look at turbos magazine at the back they put an evo engine into a 3g eclipse SWEET!

That's not a bad idea at all. You could charge $10 a table and all the proceeds could go to the website.

Yeah, and at dyno days we could watch all Mitsu's on the dyno instead of being forced to watch some pesky German car

I see Andrew's point. DSMStyle was/is home to many DSMers, but the fact is we have never been just a DSM club. It was a main focal point, and it was a big part of growing. MN EVO and MN 3S are to active groups that are ran by a few senior members on here (Curt & Chris D), and that last thing I want this transition to do is make it seem like we want to pull members from there over here. We just want to make a positive transition into a big growing period for us, and give everything we can to our members and sponsors.

[Jakey]

This is going to be my final post in this thread as I do not agree with the namechange but wanted to make a few comments based on Allan's last post:

Having the DSM as the focal point of the site until now has obviously been a success and the site has grown exponentially, which is where I don't follow why there is this sudden push for HUGE growth.

Then why is this new namechange being marketed to the members as a chance to draw members from "other" places? Like I said in my earlier post, if people don't feel welcome here because they don't own/drive a DSM, they need to open their eyes and look at the DSMStyle.com community.

Why the sudden push for a BIG growing period? As previously mentioned, in my opinion, this push for a BIG growing period is going to draw an incredible number of people who belong spamming the newbie forums on Toonerz. I have yet to come upon a truly large forum/site that carries the class which the current medium-sized DSMStyle.com has. I wish the administration and moderation team the best of luck on being able to keep things under control down the road.

If the site is giving everything it can to the sponsors, why shouldn't the sponsors do the same (treat members fairly & I'm referring to one specific sponsor)? Yes I'm bitter.....

[AJ]

Jakey, if you think we are going after the size of somthing like DSMTuners or DSMTalk you're thinking in the wrong scope of things.

Plain and simple, they don't make DSM's anymore. We don't want the site to enter into a stalemate and die over time. So we took the next logical step to build upon our foundation to provide for future growth.

I am sure we will have to deal with situations that come up over the next 3-6 months, and we are preparred to deal with those in a quick and positive way.

I think you need to relax a bit and just wait and see what happens along with everyone else.

As far as your sponsor bit, I think you just need to cut ties with you doing business with them and forget about it. If you had a bad experiance then you've probably made the decison to take your business elsewhere, and that's your right. I do get tired of you bringing it up every 10 minutes though.


Sometimes there comes a time where you just have to think, "is this really where I want to be?". Ask yourself that question Jakey. We've know each other a very long time, but if you feel this site isn't up to your requirement's then maybe MitsuStuyle.com isn't the best place for you. If you relax a tad, and just wait and see what happens and then realize it's just going to be better and you think this is a place for you, then by all means stick around. The decison is yours.

[scheides]

Jakey, enough with the animosity already, you sound like an old record...with a really bad country song on it or some shit.

We're not trying to oust the other local forums, we're trying to unite the current members of *this* board. Sure, we're hoping for new members, and if they're dumbasses, then we'll deal with that. Guess what, there's a lot of cool people out there that aren't here yet, and everyone on this site will benifit from there being more members. We're trying to open up the doors here a little, get rid of this arrogant better-than-thou attitude that some threads and you (Jakey) in particular seem to ooze.

In fact, if you do not like the site after we change, I'll personally setup a forum just for you and anyone else that hates the new site. I'll call it sandyvaginaforums.com and anyone can bitch about whatever they want!

Um Chris you dumb shit. It would need to actually be sandyvaginaSTYLE.com.

[Tauni]

HAHA! Fucking awesome!

The way I see it, more people means more and different knowledge. No one knows EVERYTHING there is to know about DSMS and I see it as, the more people, provided they are knowledgeable people, the better chance you will have finiding what information or parts or whatever you are looking for.

Change isn't always good, but it isn't always bad, either. And it is ok to be open minded in such situations

[scheides]

Hahah! so be it!

[A//// Guy]

HAHAHA Wow that was funny.

But yea I agree with all of it and am open to the changes. Just dont turn this site into MNSC where everyone posts pics all day long of their crappy 3 tone cars with steelies on the front. So mods get ready to regulate that stuff lol.

Yes, that is the very definition of MNSC.

You know exactly what I mean Matt.. come on.

I like MNSC alot but the postwhoring is rediculous over there. Threads for everything including saying what I ate for breakfast. If style gets that way Im just saying things are going to get kind of hectic. I have nothing against the mods/creators/people who run MNSC, I just dont like how things are so open over there, and I hope that doesnt happen here. Just my 2 cents.

BTW I am a member of MNSC and post somewhat regularily.

No, I don't. Say what you mean and mean what you say. MNSC is no worse than Toonerz when it comes to BS posts.
