because you paid PEPBOYS to do a clutch. thats one reason. oddly enough you say imports with half engines, yet you have a pile GEO, not an import by the way, with a “half engine” whats funny is i bet 95% of the “half engine” cars on here will mop up anything youve got.

edit: oh yeah enjoy that RED rep you just got. i put you there.

im just saying that 99% of my experience has been with old school cars with cast iron V8s… and i have about 1100 into my geo…and about 1800 tops into my caprice including the purchase price for both cars! (700 and 500 respectively) so yea, probably ill get mopped up…but I DONT CARE…

y’all need to untwist your panties and chill the fuck out…

i am chill, DOG, you just need to watch how you comment on cars, and who to, because you obviously dont know a thing. doing a clutch a FWD car is a afternoon job, one which can be done by yourself. waiting for the flywheel to get resurfaced takes the longest. cast iron V8’s well now is the time of aluminum V8’s… get with the program

mitsu mirage turbo is a better base(if you can find one) 4g61 to start with, and the 4G63 is a pretty straight swap. and the ecu harness are matching.

Ah calm down. They’re all just saying in more or less words that if you’re not mechanically competent/capable then owning a DSM is not a good idea. 99% of all DSM’s have been abused and have issues. It’s like a built in clause at the time of purchasing one these days.

did you not catch the fact that the only reason i did not do the clutch myself was because i did not have the time or the space to do it? i know i posted that…i work a lot…and im also looking for a second job, dont ask me why…lol…but i am…and yea, i might not know as much as some people here…but i do know shit…

i’m syure they did and that right there is a major factor for not buying a DSM. If you don’t have time or space to work on a DSM it’s definitely not the right car for you. Trust the people who have owned one or more in their lifetime…
