Nothing car related but I work at yogurtland (selfserve yogurt) and this happens
Girl: hey do you guys deliver?
Me: deliver?
Girl: yeah like drive and drop off yogurt
me: (I was hungover) no and that's a terrible I idea
Girl: well I think its a good idea
Me: then you make terrible decisions

Pretty much a kick in the mouth!! Thats awesome! ROFL
 
I was watching a youtube video of some kid who's 16g was on its final leg and had really bad compressor surge and some kid called it "nice turbo whistle".. I sat and shook my head for minutes.
 
I know where that is! Its under the gas pedal on the floor. I hope you helped them out.

If you look at the specs it says its a four door car too... Lmao.

I was at a parts store and the guy is typing away asking what year, model, make, engine, turbo, non turbo, etc then I got surprised when he asked if it was two door or four. LOL
 
Got a new one.

An old jerkoff roomate of mine from back in the day (NEVER paid his rent!!!) pulled up next to me at a stoplight a few months ago (obviously before my car was down for her engine swap...stroke it baby...as in my new engine is stroked :p) in his "new" ugly little civic hatchback thing. He rolls down his window and starts talkin' smack about how I never could hang with the "big boys" and how I should have stuck with my POS Protege (never tried to race it...just a daily. That was way before I was into cars). All this time he's revving his ricebox at me.

I haven't said one word at this point. Just silently listening to him rant.

Then he says it. The six words that just get under my skin and make me absolutely insane. "Girls don't know $hit about cars."

All it took was one rev to about 6k, enough to spool that 747 of a turbo I have a little (I effing love you Justin!!) and pop the BOV...dude looked at me like I had just pulled a giant penis out of my pants and smacked him in the face with it.

He just puts his "gangsta' " hat down a little bit, sunk down in the seat and mumbled "great." And rolled up his window with what looked like the ghost of a mushroom stamp on his forehead.

Never said a word then entire "conversation." I just let my little Bishi do <i>ALL</i> the talking. :D

Hahahahahahaha hell yea, that a girl, show that asshole us dsmers don't #### around!
 
Just got reminded of a ticket I got once. When I first got my 1G a cop pulled me over for "exhibition" driving because I pulled away from a light to get ahead of another car to make a turn.

I hand him my registration and ins etc. And he come back with a ticket. Reads:
Make: Mitsubishi
Model: Galant
Year: 2003.

This in my '93 Talon... Wtf?
 
i got pulled over in Fairfield CT once in my 2g. im at a stop light and i see the cop lurking in the lot across the street from me. im like, "cool, ill just go slow past him and there should be no problems" WRONG! i pass him, then im looking in my rear view and dont see him, then suddenly, he floats up on me and i see the lights. "####" he comes up to me and says the reason he pulled me over (i shit you not) "your muffler is not muffling" ....."excuse me officer?" he goes, "if i can hear your car, its too loud, your muffler isnt muffling, ITS PRESCHOOL!" so i reply.."officer, it's a street legal exhaust and the insults arent necessary sir, but im sure you can hear alot of cars, not just mine" he goes, "dont get smart with me young man, liscence and regestration"

5 minutes later..'hey so i didnt mean to be breakin your balls, get your exhaust fixed and enjoy your night."

i was like...:confused:WTF:

since that had nothing to do with DSM, a kid im friends with goes, so your driving a what? Eclipse..just the RS right?
no dude, ive got a GST
WHAT NO WAY, THAT LIKE 90,000 DOLLAR NISSAN?
*facepalm.
 
so this kid thinks im like the "import god" at our school and asked me to find him a "import car" for around 1500 or less.

He starts listing cars and i laughed when he said "awd eclipse or talon.. or any dsm for that matter"

i said he wont get an awd for that price and if he could settle with a non turbo. he said he would settle for a non turbo.. so i offered him my buddies 93 lazer for 1k. He looks me like im stupid and says "i dont want no shitty plymouth" with the most confused look on his face.

last time i checked that "shitty plymouth" was a dsm. just like he wanted, in his price range
 
My buddy bought a 95 gsx 6 bolt swapped and some minor mods, the thing ran pretty good compression 160-165 across the board. Paint was decent and had the 99 conversion. The only problem was the idiot who had the car before him took the valve cover off and didn't put one of the spark plug hole seals on so it leaked pretty bad. so the kid pulls the motor takes off the head pulls the exhaust cuts the rear oxygen sensor while he was at it and its been sitting this way for 6 months, oh and he GROUND the paint off the car! And all he keeps doing is buying ebay mods(turbos etc) and argues with me saying his $200 ebay 50 trim is better than a holset LOL. Sorry for the long post but i had to share this, its kind of the dumbest thing a dsmer said and did.
 
Guy I know (tuner name witheld) HAD a gst

Him: (texts me ) Hey find me a gsx
Me: Why?
Him: Because I want one
Me: What happened to the gst
Him: I blew it up
Me: How did you manage to do that?
Him: I was running 140+ pinned for like 10 minutes
Me: Why did you do that?
Him: I was mad
Me: Oh, well thats not smart at all.
Him: Yeah I know the thing was quick
Me: I bet, how many psi was it pushing
Him: Im not sure, I removed the line to the wastegate so it would go faster:ohdamn:
End of convo.

He texts me today.
Him: I want a gsx so bad.
Me: Why?
Him: I dont know, just want one.
Me: You already had a turbo car.
Him: Yeah I know and I blew it up at 150 LOL
Me: So you dont need another turbo car
Him: No, I need a faster one

hahahaha i was a ####en jerk on this one.....

right after work when i got out at 430, I drove down this AVE that i always take to work. I got this yellow to red light I slowed down I was on the left lane and this MUSTANG 99' was on the right lane, it was a red Mustang with Cobra Rims and a rear Cobra Bumper. But what caught my eye was the GT emblem on the side near the door. I was listening to some Tupac (better days) and then all of the sudden the Mustangs window rolled down and i turned away, the conversation went like this..LOL

once I turned away,

Mustang GUY: are you fu**en serious?

i turned down my music and smiled and turned to him and find out theres a cute chick with red hair in the passanger side then i told him,
Me: what?
Mustang GUY: what the !@#$ are you looking at?
I threw my head back and laughed,
Mustang GUY: your v6 don't scare my beast!!
I stop smiling and felt dizzy for a sec and thought"you got to be kidding me v6?" and at that moment I said the unthinkable..LOL
Me: hey you'r in the wrong car!
Mustang GUY: Hell nah, I hate ricers!
Me: I wasn't talking to you,(I then point at the chick) I was talking to her!

she giggled, the dude snapped back to catch her smiling at me and raising her eye brows he then told her something but i couldn't understand what he said all i know she gave him a nasty look!!

he rolled up his windows and revved his engine, light turns green he burns out and stalls i slowly tap the gas and drive off and turned right up the next street to avoid a race!!!!...LOL

you should of seen his face
WTF=Priceless

but the chicks face was=:D
 
one instence me and a buddy pulled up to the local shop in his evo, there a guy is working on a probe with sweet body kit and wing ;)

him: hey do you got a hose clamp
me: not with me
Him: pops his hood and says he just put this bigger turbo in but needed a clamp
Me: looked at his turbo with no oil feed or return and said sweet looks fast.
Him: yea does 180 really easy....did that racin a lambo
Me: ride on
Him: Il give that evo a run
We: laugh and walk off

The next week i was in my old boosted civic and he pulls up next to me and wants to race, I said sure. He puts on a nose picker driving glove, and gives me this ### look and says, "When we get to the line petal to the metal...
LOL

my friend taped the whole thing
 
One of my Friends told mt that his 97eclipse gs (bone stock) could beat a 95 talon tis awd (bone stock)
he said that a eclipse was made to beat a talon. "what a doink
 
Not a dsmer that said this on but I thought everyone needs to hear this one LOL....one of my friends posted a picture of a conquest tsi on facebook and some kid posted on it "WEAK its a DSM".....so I felt the need to tell him no sir that's not a dsm but nice try....so now to this moment we are still battling because he is trying to tell me that all mitsubishis are diamond star so I have given him the entire background and all the info about DSMs that anyone could know but he still doesn't believe me :banghead:

just let him be...sometimes the arrogance in a person is too strong to crack...
 
I consider any car that had both a Mitsubishi and Mopar variant a DSM. I don't care where it was made, it's the partnership backing the making of the cars, the shipping, and the marketing. DSM is not just a car, it was a partnership, so to me, the 3si, Starquest, and Galants are all DSMs, too. I don't care if it doesn't have a sticker that says DSM or if it's not made in Normal, Illinois. Aside from the Starquest, they all share a crapload of parts, especially the Galant and "DSMs", which are practically identical cars.
 
I just felt that I had to argue because he is a honda kid and thinks he knows EVERYTHING about everything

My conquest is a mitsu platform with a chrysler badge. That's pretty close to a dsm if you ask me.
 
Not a dsmer but a kid i used to be friends with, we were going around a hair pin corner on this back road, like literally "L" and he said "ya my brothers mustang gt we took this corner at 120mph it was INSANE" it was a 01 gt.... Last time I knew they handle like crap and a formula 1 car wouldnt take a corner that sharp at that speed.
