Lots of cool projects here and I have also been thinking about the scarcity of DSM parts in the future. It's one of the reasons I recently purchased an Ender 3 V2. Not high end by any means but a starter machine to learn. I have some basic CAD skills but have never 3d printed before. Any tips...
I think it's great that DSMs are rising in price. Honestly though, a vast majority of DSM owners are their own worst enemy when it comes to price. It seems that anytime someone posts to sell on social media, people are slamming the owner for selling "too high." This is a bs excuse as a car is...
I say go for it as long as everything under the hood is ok and there isn't any extreme rust anywhere, especially if it will be a side project car. Depending on what your goals are, the auto transmission is considered stronger than our manual transmissions.

Depends on how long you plan on keeping the car and what your end build goal is. Street? Drag? Autox? Road Race or a mix. If it's in your budget, it's hard to beat Feal 441 coils for our platform at it's price point and customer support.
Now you got me looking into purchasing one of these. My buddy, who is a tech for Subaru, uses these and they are a massive time saver for him. Especially since he is working to beat the book. From my little research, the Milwaukee M12 (or M18?) is the best one at this price point. I also have...
