You can say that again .

Welcome to the board. Im sure that everyone here should treat you with at least some respect . Enjoy your new car, and Im happy to know that you decided to get the 7 instead of another DSM .

im swapping to a 89 T2 engine and tranny...should be interesting but since im going with a stand-alone the wiring will be easy...right now im just in the process of accumulating the parts for the swap before i go tearing into my newly aquired car ;-) definitly glad to be out of the DSM world...way to much drama and way to many tranny problems...lol...

Actually I didn't/don't know what DSM means either, besides reffering to eclipses and talons does it stand for something?

Oh yeah, welcome to the forum. Try not to lose (too much of) your life in here.

Welcome to the board, SpinningTriangle. Have fun and enjoy the help..

DSM is Diamond Star Motors.. Look at a Mitsubishi emblem (like on our alternators) and you'll see.. three diamonds in a star shape pattern..
