The '94-and-up Mitsubishi Galant is also assembled at the DSM plant in IL; previous Galant's were assembled in Japan. The Eclipse and Galant (since '89) share the same platform. (http://www.dsm.org/info/glossary.htm#dsm) and http://members.shaw.ca/costall/1000Q...keandmodel.htm queston 1 and 5.

so tech anything built after 94 and is not a dsm. but most people use the term to denote any 1g 2g turbo eclipse talon laser (this happens to be the platforms that run the 4g63). and i personally include the 2g spyder in it but many do not. that is why most do not consider 3000gt a dsm.
That's what I meant by club definition. Just because they dissolved the partnership, doesn't mean the cars that used the same tech are suddenly no longer DSMs according to the enthusiasts. I don't include any N/T's personally whether its Chrysler powered(420A) or Mitsubishi (4G64) otherwise my '97 Galant would have to be "let in." And that's just not right.

3/S cars were ALL made in Japan, not in Normal, IL.

What makes the above car "Super?"

I can't seem to stop buying them. Even with the evo. The GVR4 is new to me last month. The red 1g was my first, and I miss it the most.

My first car, 93 GSX



Got it when I was 16, before I had my license even. My dad used to let me take it to school, drop me off, and then take it home hahahaha.

Ended up being a Frank Stg 5 Turbo, HKS WG, 660's, S-afc, AFPR, etc...at 10psi it ran an 13.8 @ 100, absolutely untuned. It was my entrance into the world of tuning.

Sold that, bought the 95 TSI FWD



B16G, S-AFC, 550's, Wally 255, FP2 Cams, etc...real quick car @ 24psi, tranny went out, and traded it clean swap for the car below:

95 TSI AWD converted to 2GB Eclipse



BB 50 Trim, DSMLink, Meth Injection, Magnus SMIM, 272's, etc...it wasn't running when I got it, I got it running by replacing a fuel pump relay ($3 lol), and sold it for $4.5k

That was my last DSM...then came the 2005 SRT4 which I currently have, and now I also own my 2005 Evo

I like the fact that you've traced your DSM journey over so many years. Very impressive.
