boosted98gst Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 My 1st car was/is a DSM most people that think dsm's are always broken are usually, people that never owned a dsm, or just broke ass people that rag the fuck out of cars and can not fix or mod them right.

abelv Posted September 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 haha awd turbo is what i need and it sucks finding one for a good price...any other suggestions on any other turbo'd cars? im thinking about possibly a newerish mr2 or something small and rwd. Im picky now lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boosted98gst Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 you can find 240's with swapped sr's in them. just an idea. edit: I take that back I just remember you said you only had 3,500 to spend, its going to be hard to find somthing you want thats awd or turbo within that price range,unless its a 1g dsm. you can def pick up a nice s13 for under that but its def not going to be turbo. Not sure what the turbo mr2's go for, so I will leave that up to someone that knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abelv Posted September 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 saw a decent looking t-top turbo like 93ish goin for 3-3500 when i was first looking at buying my first car so i know i could maybe find one...and what exactly is a s13? Probably a stupid question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoolin_s14 Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 s13 = older body style 240sx 88-94 i believe mr2 turbos are a lot higher than what you want to spend usually dsm's are fun and cheap but they seam to break alot once you start modding big leave them stock and they'll out lasty your civic i know of 13 modded dsm's between 10 friends and 2 run!!!! you do the math i am only critical of dsm's because i had one and it was a piece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
