Re: New dsm to minnesota?

It would make no sense to ever convert a FWD to AWD when you can buy a half decent AWD shell for $500 most any day of the week.

Re: New dsm to minnesota?

I'm planing on getting this one, what are some needed aftermarket parts to make it better, and about how much to do so.

Re: New dsm to minnesota?

Well I'll try and get that blue one then save for awhile then try and see what I can get then start modding but like I don't know what I need if like I get something for it then like supporting mods. I am not the most mechanically inclined person.

Re: New dsm to minnesota?

Research, research, research. (emphasis on search). Your end goals should determine the parts you buy. If you want to go really fast, or if you want a fun reliable daily driver.

choose 2 only: Speed, Money, Reliability

The current car you have has the potential and is definitely a sleeper. I haven't researched much on auto dsm's, but I'm sure they can be just as fast. What are your plans for a modded dsm? straight line? auto-x? 'highway' roller? What you are searching for is already out there so my only advice is: search, search and search more.
