In the vein of what xian and gsx are doing, I'm whoring a thread of my own to sing the praises of my UNBREAKABLE DSM!!!! It's like bruce willis on unbreakable. absolutely nothing phases this monster, not 7k rev launches, crazy quick downshifts, curbs, 89 octane fuel, bad language, conventional oil, leaded diesel fuel....NOTHING! MWA HA HA!
Right now I'm welding in a roll cage. There is a pic on my garage profile. Also, the speed glass is installed and is sooo sweet. The rear window is already scratched to hell and it's like having tint but not the type of tint that blocks any of the sun, just the effect of it where you can't see out the rear view window very well because it makes it seem like you've got cataracts and everything is blurry and indistinguishable. I guess next time I'll try saran wrap since I've never seen that stuff scratch or crack and it's very flexible. The speed holes and custom license plate are rather fancy and I think add style to the ride that was lacking. Now it's a venerable show car, and as soon as the faux fur steering wheel cover and neon dash trim kit arrive, I'll go pimp the car show scene like I do the local junior highs. That's right all you pre-teen honeys out there. I'm 24 and I've got a drivers license. Wanna ride to the orthodontist to get your braces tightened? No problem, I'm all 'bout that shi-at. -------------------- my cars breath smells like car food

pictures will illustrate this better, of course, but I'll do my best and promise that pictures will follow soon.
I have a spin on adapter that came with an oil filter relocation kit I bought through Summitt Racing. I have this on the front of the filter bracket, and -6 an lines (soon to be upgraded to -10) running to both an oil cooler and an extra large oil filter in a series fashion. It makes for a lot of plumbing, but it's really a clean setup and makes things easy and durable. Right now I'm debating between using a stock DSM external oil cooler or springing for an Earl's or Setrab cooler. Hard to justify the extra 150 or so for a cooler when it can easily be added in the future should I determine that the stocker is insufficient. I'll probably rock a stocker till my wallet cools down. I've managed to drop nearly 2K on the car in the past two months and all I have to show for it are a set of cams, new tires, and a bunch of parts still waiting to be installed at some undetermined later date. So much for cheap speed. This thing is neither inexpesive, nor fast. ![]() -------------------- my cars breath smells like car food
