Tell him to get an srt4. Or a 02 wrx. It will be hard to find a dsm that's not a ragged pos

soeuro would you really sell for $13k?

and yes you can get an evo for under $10k. I have bought 2 in the last year. yellow one for $9500 and black one for $8k. You just need to be patient and look around quite a bit. Once you see one you have to jump on it though as they sell quickly

Cause with cams he can make 630. Lol. But you're right,cams on Xs won't yield the results like they do on the 4g63

Yes I would , I've had my eye on either a z06 or 03/04 cobra for years. But I honestly think if I sold I would end up buying an Evo a few years later. It's been my favorite car for years, before they even came to the states

Never in my life would I tell someone I consider a friend to buy either of those. Ever.

I think Brian wanted to buy it, but were you interested? How much would you pay for a 50k motor?

The cams won't help your rev limit, hope you got springs and retainers

And bfletch. Put your bias aside, you're telling me you'd take a 20 year old dsm(known to have horrible reliablity) over a 2002+ srt4 or wrx?? For someone's FIRST toy??? With friends like you given advice like that, who needs enemies

IIIII dunno about that. From my experience, most srt 4's are driven by some punk kids. I would never buy an srt-4, brand new, let alone with 50k miles on it. Eek.

I can honestly say I would. FWD is NEVER an option for me in any sort of "sports car". I only give my friends advice if I would do the same myself. Never in my life will I own a boxter engine. Subaru proved everything they needed to when they brought their new sti engine out a couple years ago and people were blowing rings and spinning bearings just with bolt ons. There is your reliability.

Same story with the wrx. All I ever see it kids (granted around my age) with rockstar and fox clothes on driving the **** out of them.

I've seen 3 other Evos of ANY style: there was a GG IX at Walmart like 3 weeks ago, a LY VIII at a used car lot and then tonight I saw some rich kid with a red VIII that his momma bought him...

The rest of the import car scene is a bunch of rich kids with the typical fanboi cars stuffed with gauges "because they're cool and they light up" and the wannabe model racer tarts that follow these d-bags around everywhere. It's hilarious to see them all scatter when the po po's come through at 11pm and ask for ID so as to enforce the juvenile curfew. lol
Lee mah ninja!! just add some underglows on that **** and call it day playboy

Not if you don't rev above 7k. Plenty of people run stock springs and retainers

That motor is over built, weak link is the Axels lol, Ask any of the older people that own it, they say they beat on it without a hiccup.

ok and think about the people that own DSMs lol. Want to be racers, your car bias is showing it's ugly head Brandon , Subaru hasn't changed the EJ205,203,or ej20 in a while. Unless u mean the 205 being new since 03/04, the reason from the cracked ringlands is BS access ports and those off the shelf tunes, scoobs run upward of 25 degrees advance timing from the factory....... You know what, I never even asked what your friend was looking for in a car, if he's building a race car an awd dsm is perfect. I just don't think they are the best dd, considering ive owned 2 in the past 5 years, but hey.
