What would you rather have?

a 97-98 mitibushi gsx, or do a 3sgte swap.?

GSX

Pros:Looks good, Fast stock, easily tuned.
Cons:Bad tranny's? easily to break?, alot around

3sgte:
Pros: Fast, Rare, strong engines
Cons:FWD

I had a GSX and a FWD just wouldn't do for me when it comes to speed. Nothing would beat that car. But.... it must be babied.

Great quote
"DSM's... making mechanics out of normal people since 1989"

AND NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
That F&F eclipse was NOT a GSX... It was a RS!!!!!!! A turbo'd 420A DODGE NEON ENGINE! AHHHHHHHHHHH... I hated it when people referred to that as my car. Mine never burned oil nor had ticks... i sold it with 150k on it. And DSMs have great trannys ... if you drive manual... otherwise the first statement is true - Autos really suck.
