Turning radius blows, 2g door handles blow, the smallish interior kinda blows, old bolts blow, previous dumbass owners blow... Hmmm....

Oh, yea: my AWD and turbo blows.........all the rest of the cars away!!:hellyeah::hellyeah:

DSM FTW!!:hellyeah::rocks::dsm::talon::laser:
 
Window rattles.
Yellow headlights.
Change one thing on the car three other parts break.
I'm not driving it.
Having to explain to people my car isn't a pos.
 
I hate how everytime I fix more things to make it a more reliable car something else breaks, then it pauses the whole project for a while. I hate how when it runs well it RUNS LIKE NOTHING WILL STOP IT, but when it doesn't it's like you have no motivation to fix it. until you see another dsm and you say DAMN IT I'M DOING IT!!!

In the end its the character of the car that attracts us and the sheer potential of it, every good thing has to have down sides. I still and always will <3 my dsm. 5 Gears, 4 Cylinders, 3 Diamonds, 2 Liters, 1 Turbo:).
 
I hate how hard it is to find an OEM 2GA or 2GB talon bumper cover. When you do find one its $300-$400 and it's on the east coast. :notgood:
 
The 2gs were prone to strut towers rusting never seen a 1g with rusty strut towers.

I hate the damn 1g lifter tap, Replaced with itm 3g lifters and after 1000 miles they tap now to worst than the stock lifters.
I hate that the idle has to be 1100 for it to want to idle sometimes because of having cams.

I have the same damned problem. But now it doesnt soynd cammed
 
I hate the fact that I re-built the top frame and it still leaks in the rear where the top meets the body.

Window rattles...

Random Exhaust leaks.
 
I hate that i fix one thing just to find something else breaking, and FWD.
 
Hates it when the couplers to my intercooler pipes pop off cause my turbo is SPOOLING so viciously.
 
i have a 93 dodge stealth sohc. my wife was driving it and got into second gear and just stoped running and now has no fire from coil. tryed replacing the coil distributer cap and rotor button still no fire any ideas
 
1.) Lower left exhaust stud has broken off the corner of the head, and now that area is black with oil and exhaust
2.) My replacement head is in need of a rebuild to use it.
3.) My 16g turbo is going out due to
4.) Boost leaks at all 4 injectors that I cannot get rid of.
5.) Hood and roof are faded completely
6.) The driver front fender had to be replaced, and since the paint is fading, you can tell it's not the original fender... That and it has sparkles... >.<

I need a paint job. -,-;
:(
 
What I hate about my car:
1.) faded side skirts
2.) yellow headlights
3.) 420A - has no power
4.) FWD - driving in the winter is a hassle
5.) every damn nut and bolt puts up a fight
 
lifter tap. the fact that my brake and battery light come on while driving for no reason but if i pull the ebrake it lights up brighter. Sometime the lights flicker outside to when those light pop up
