    Jesse Echanique - @jessegsx
    Chris Lifesabishi - @Lifesabishi
    The sunk-cost fallacy could be exemplified by purchasing a rotten, rusty Mitsubishi Eclipse for its built motor, and then trying to salvage that horrendous investment by re-homing the entire AWD drivetrain and engine in a much less rusty but still incredibly needy Eagle Talon. DSM for life, baby.

    To all the people working on Ben's car, I highly suggest therapy so DSM 4g63 PTSD doesn't set in and all your dreams are of rusted pieces and parts of Gen 2 Talons and Eclipses, and bad DIY welds, mods, etc. . The build however is highly entertaining, educational, and your team of friends helping you put this project together are great at what they do. Over all this has been highly entertaining.
    Your team is also quite entertaining showing the patience they have but are quite professional with a good sense of humor. On cam the DSM Legends work well together, can we say possible UA-cam spinoff channel being started the 4 of them?

The cars are getting harder to find in good shape and what used to be a cheap/fast car is now not. The guys who stay in it are either the easy come/easy go type, or they are FOR REAL.

    I did this exact thing with my 3000gt, I had a 94 sl that got rear ended so i got a 98 base chassis (although gutted and a rolling shell) and swapped everything from one chassis to another since everything still worked (engine, trans, wiring, interior, suspension etc). It was no easy task but I got it done and to see this happen with a DSM makes me happy. Huge respect for anyone who gets it done, especially having experience having done it myself. It's a little on the extreme side for the usual home mechanic but it just goes to show that it all really just depends on the determination of the owner to keep the car and platform alive. Better to salvage everything and do a body transplant than to let another one of these cars die and rot away because they're a dwindling number and a dying platform.

    My buddy charles had one at 450WHP (Lowboost tune) and built for 700WHP, rode in it once when he had it finished and to this day its still the fastest, most scariest automobile i've rode in, its been 10 years already, he just sold it for supercheap this year

    I don't know how tough it is so.. but I thought it will be interesting to see you guys build your own tubular chassis to replace the rotten "DSM" one, seems like the perfect opportunity for more unique content.

    Hey I just found you guys so excited!! I've had five 2G eclipses including the eagle talon. I currently have a 99 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder and I'm learning all I can to put the 4G 63 engine in it but I would love for it to be all wheel drive not sure how to do that swap yet also I have to drill a clutch into the floor because it's an automatic. Anyway I'm excited to find DSM tuners and I love DSM 2G
