4g61t.org

I'm a DSM guy at heart but i have quickly fallen in love with mirages. I'll be around this site a lot. Hopefully this summer I'll pick up a nice Clean mirage. I would plan to start with a 4g63 swap, until traction gets on my nerves, because I would love to do an AWD swap. Some of the AWD threads here are so inspiring.
Anyway, hope to meet some of you in the future.

Welcome to the forum, please put a location in your profile.

Welcome to the forum! CSMs sure are addicting for the low cost to performance ratio

Ryanman - where are you located ?

CT/ Upstate NY. Occasionally in MA too. I'll travel anywhere in the northeast for a good car or part =)

I'll ask again, is this the ryanman formerly of colorado and texas?

Sorry, not the same guy.

I figure I'd introduce myself a bit more to everybody.
I log on to this site multiple times per day and I swear there is an addiction. I had the same thing with my dsm's. Not to say I still don't have it, but I really want to get a mirage/ colt.

Just recently I may have encountered one to hold me over. Of course everybody would love a perfect condition 4g61t to start with, but that most likely won't happen.
Some guy I ran into has a 91 Blue Colt with 75k original miles, only driven 2 winters. I'm keeping in touch with him and going to look at it this weekend.

First thing, it's not white. =( Secondly, it's an automatic.

Would it be so wrong of me to tear down this car, re-paint it, and do a 5 speed 4g63 swap?

... Yeah, I didn't think so. (Sorry I'm not a fan of blue, plus white csm with black tint = sex)

Enough of me babbling, if you don't mind I'd like to post some pictures of my dsm's. Nothing special.

My 93 AWD
Before

After

Seats went in after that obviously, and I also put in a suede headliner. I have plenty more pictures if anyone is interested.
90 AWD

3 Cars and Garage

I also have a 90 FWD for parts.

Ryan, welcome man, I've been working on DSMs for 8 years now so the love of DSMs is always there. I don't have a CSM but I have something better and that is a 4g63t swap hyundai excel 4 door,lol. I also have a 95 hyundai elantra that I'm building as a street/drag car that hopefully hit 10s with. I notice that you live in New England, that's cool, I live in Mass, when ever you are in my neck of the woods, stop by I'll show you my car collection,lol.

Sweet Deal. I was just home in CT over x-mas break. Haha, won't be back until May.
Is that Western, Central or Eastern Mass?
My house is in Central CT, I go to Clarkson University in Upstate NY.

South eastern 20 mintues from RI.

Where in central CT are you located?
