yeah dsm stricktly means diamond star motors NOT 4g63 therefore the 420a made by Chrystler is included in the dsm community simply becouse it is in a 2g eclipse.


DSM
1.1st gen plymouth Lazer
2.1st gen Eagle Talon
3.1st gen Mitsubishi Eclipse
4.2nd gen Mitsubishi Eclipse
5.2nd gen Eagle Talon

also in some cases people count the rare galant vr-4(4g63t) as a DSM

its really just the drivers. Because both are pretty slow cars and even though the eclipse comes with the slightly bigger engine (2.4l) it still is very close. 10 car lengths on a 1g is wrong though. they were not trying then because i dont care who was driving. 10 lengths will not happen

but didnt the DSM era end in 1995 , making part of the 2g a dsm and the other not?
