Hello everyone. My name is Nathan. I have been a lurker here for a little while, and I finally picked up my own DSM a little over a week ago. It is a blue 1993 GSX with a few mods. Absolutely LOVE the car. I am located in Earlysville, VA (just outside of Charlottesville, VA) and was wondering if there are any DSM clubs around my area, I'd love to meet some DSM enthusiasts from my area, and learn as much as I can about my car. I am fairly mechanically inclined especially with cars but you can never know too much. I currently go to a local tech school called CATEC (Charlottesville Albemarle Technical Education Center) in the Automotive Technology program. I also worked as an intern at Crown BMW of Charlottesville this summer through CATEC.

The odometer reads just under 131000, but the previous owner essentially rebuilt the engine around 8k-9k miles ago. By "essentially" I mean he did all of the seals/gaskets, rings etc. (OEM Mitsubishi) but didn't replace things like the pistons/rods. He also said he put on a re-manufactured head at the same time.
