Both Erica and Donkey have some pics/vids of some pretty sick DSMs

He he, looks like next month I will be mailing the blower back to supercharger rebuilds for upgrades. I will be going to a "T" trim billet impeller same specs as the Novi 2000.

I have a 1997 Mitsu eclipse gs-t (turbo) spyder (convertible) and 1999 Mitsu 3000gt I have always been a big mitsu fan thats actually how I came about getting the dakota. I almost bought a Mitsu Raider, but the guy wouldnt budge on the price. Glad I went with the Dakota instead not only because it looks better imo but the H.O. was not offered in the Raider.



Donkey Punches talon looks pretty mean and clean inside and out.

I have a FMIC I bought last year but haven't installed it because i would have to modify the elbow on the supercharger. The reason I'm thinking of the water to air is I wouldn't have to modify the blowers elbow.

And here is the FMIC I bought last year that is sitting in the garage.

Unmolested low mileage 3000gt's are hard to find. Especially the 1999 like mine...it is the last year they made them and it is different then any other year 3000gt ever made (front bumper/headlights, and rear fascia, no fake back side window on the side) bought it about a year and a half ago with only 36k miles on it its not the vr4 twin turbo though but i like the looks of them and it is artic pearl white..........i am drinking jim beam and coke and watching tru grit (great movie) so I cannot be held responsible for my thread jacking

Theres a guy that banks where I work and he apparently has a twin turbo 3000gt sitting in his garage in mint condition and low miles. I can see why; he never drives the thing because it is just that precious.

Id still like to get my hands on an untouched Grand National GNX. I found one on Ebay once with 20k miles on it. Everything was original down to the tires on the rims. It was going for about $25k though and the auction wasnt over.

It was the fastest production V6 when it came out. Its the only good thing that came out of the American car market in the 80's (IMO of course)
