can you just get a new head? or did you score the block walls or what?

 

[KaMaSuTrA]

Try dsmtuners, dsmtalk or chitowndsm for used blocks. Doubt you will find anything here.

get rid of the car and go AWD.... your fwd just isnt worth building up

 

[Dasfinc]

I sold one months ago sans turbo (a long block) for $350, they seem to go for sub $500 without the turbo I've noticed.

You keep thinking I am some FWD leghumper.

SS actually doesnt talk out of his ass like certain chick car owners I know.

 

[Stink Star]

say what you want about any other FWD car... but honestly a FWD DSM is just a bad platform to start with.... you cant fit huge tires and with the power that these cars easily make, it liquefy's DR's anyway....shit i mean my car is AWD and with just minimal mods i spin all 4 tires for about 60' on the street... i couldnt imagine if my car was FWD

My buddy had a FWD TSI Talon. Thing couldnt get traction to save its life. Wheel hopped like a mofo.

nuttin to do with fwd... I was just pointing out the blatant statement that post said as to not mod that car and get something else. Just reminded me of smok3's thread. I didn't say I do agree with it. I was just waiting for you to come in a be the OP's hero

 

[Fish]

Yeah, you are right. I should go back to being a douche bag and make fun of everyone and call them dumb like you guys.

 

[Angus]

idk about that...i know a couple fwd dsm's that will make some damage man. yhea they dont have the advantage an awd has but still...if you know what you are doing you can pull it off with no problems.

is your car a red Evo and you live in the suburbs?

 

[Stink Star]

yea im in crystal lake/ LITH area.... bronze wheels, lic plate "FOR G 63"

im not saying FWD just wont work.... but it just gets old doing nothing but spinning the tires through 100 mph.... plus roll racing is for queers

 

[make_HP]

well u can take care of that but i think i know where you are coming from...it does take up a fair amount of money to deal with those issues when u never have to deal with that with an AWD....yhea iv heard about you i live in huntley and i know a couple of people you talk to.

 

[make_HP]

have you heard of carlos from c ville?? the times and damage he is making out there with a FWD?? and he doesnt run from a roll...if you know what you are doing and how you are doing it you can do a lot of stuff with a FWD

 

[Stink Star]

yea ive known carlos for probably 4 years now... if every FWD car was built like his then yea, its really no big deal just having FWD... but most DSM's dont get that treatment..

info on act clutch if you still have it please..

 

[make_HP]

yhea thats true....people dont keep up with their cars nor take care of them. so i guees the point of this convo is....if you are willing to invest time and money and keep up with your car go ahead and build it if not get an awd (but still keep up with maintenance and all)
