Right on I had a '96 GSX and loved it other than how much clutches are + labor. Upgrade your DP on back, intake, EBC and some tuning and you should be pretty happy.

Big 16g is going on. The wife wont let me put mods on yet, which is a good thing in a way so both the cars are not pimped out at the same time. Then we would have to buy a beater car, my truck only gets 8MPG. lol -B.

One of the reasons I got this particular car was that it's an auto. I can't work the clutch when I have a gout attack, so I had to compromise. I don't think they made CSVT's with an auto trans so my only other option was to find a fast car with an automatic tranny. It was total luck that I found this DSM in a field with 63,000 miles and brand new tires on it.
The only problem now is that I have to sell the tour after I put all this work into it and love it so much... If only I didn't have gout...

3L/ATX swap?
Kidding, the DSM will be fun and probably faster then most Contiques will ever be for the same mod money. Killer find, especially with that mileage.

Yeah, I would do a 3L swap with an ATX (IF it would be as reliable as an MTX) if I had the money. I'm trading a 1 year technical support contract for the car, so no money is actually changing hands. IF I had the money to spend on the tour, I would probably dig around the yards for a SE with and ATX and a 2.5L and throw a block (pun intended) party to get it installed.
