Granted some cars are fwd, awd, n/a, turbo..etc but there is a common theme, we are all Mitsubishi Enthusists.
Dude, you forgot about the self-destruct button, aka cruise control!

We have registered a few other domains that we'll use in tandom with dsmstyle and mitsustyle, like 3sstyle.com and I'm working on evostyle or evolutionstyle. All this really means is that we're growing and expanding the site to suit its members. It's stupid to have to go elsewhere for info on some other vehicles besides dsms; there are plenty of people here that can help.

On the topic of new members w/o a clue: we were all there at some point. I remember accusing a buddy in high-school of being an idiot when he was talking about hacking up his air filter box. We have more and more people signing up for the site every week, and I want them to become part of the community, not get shunned out of it. If you have a problem with this, then bring it to me or one of the moderators. I want to promote a positive attitude around here, because flame wars do nothing but leave a bad taste in everyone's mouth and accomplish NOTHING.

On the flip side of that, if a newbie or a senior member decides to be a punk or arrigant ass for too long, then get ready to say goodbye to us, and remember the Internet is not as anonymous as you might think. So please, turn your flamidation valves off and put your high-horsepower hats on!

I think what you meant to say was poor reliability hats.

Re: MitsuStyle.com

Couldnt you just add a subforum for each of those? Do you think there would be enough traffic to warrant a full section for each of those other car models?

You mean like mitsubishiforums.com or whatever it is? .Net maybe? Their shit is way confusing.

So here is my question, with all the expansion, are yall thinking of taking this full past MN or are we going to stay more MN based like we have been?

We won't go national if that is what you mean. There is sites for that already. But we get people from all over the US. I think it's safe to say we will always call MN home and keep open arms for IA, WI, ND, ect ect. That bad thing is, we can't stop those weird fuckers from FL and CA from calling us home as well though.

I've been here for a month and a half already, and I've already lived here before. So get the facts straight and we'll talk.

So you just want more info on Eagle Summits, Dodge Avengers and Chrysler Sebrings? 3S's, Galant VR4's, and Evos weren't made at the Diamond Star Motors facility so MitsuStyle is a little more accurrate.

Re: MitsuStyle.com

Not that I am against having other mitsubishi owners come on here however isn't there a Minnesota 3s club and a evo club out there already?

This is the DSM club of Minnesota, this website was for the 4g63 motors mostly (include the Galant VR-4). I would find it kind of weird that minnesota would have a club for just the 3s and EVOs and then the DSM (the biggest group of them all, I think) wouldn't have a club just for DSMs.

However if the EVO and 3s club don't accually exist
MITSUBISHI OWNERS UNITE!!!

^funny! thats what I call my car when it isn't running!

Well, the evo still has a 4g63 so you point is not valid. Yes there is already a 3S and EVO site. Style is fancier than either though, but the 3S guys are pretty loyal so I don't know if many would come over.

You'd be surprised how many mn3s members post/lurk on here.

HEY!! you know what I mean
I know the evos have a 4g63 but the timing belt is on the other side and none of the parts can be interchanged... well most anyway (this could get into a long debate)

I have to say, this is a nice website with very friendly people. I would love it if mitsubishi people would come together. The mitsubishi cook out was fun to go to and would be great if there was more stuff like that.

What I would love to see is a meet where a lot of mitsubishi people get together and have a parts swap meet. I know a lot of us have car parts, cars, and part cars that they would want to sell. And there are some of us who really need car parts, like me!!
